Episode Synopsis

Four years ago, our first episode reached the 21st century! To commemorate that occasion Dirk's Personal 'A.I.' Assistant Mr. Dobalina agreed to ask us a bunch of questions - some that we suggested and others that he contributed himself. Get ready for a peek behind the curtain of Tests From The Future, a short political discussion, and of course another poetry reading by the interviewer himself!To confirm this episode went back in time, please email [email protected] with the episode number 238 in the subject line.
