Primer... GET IT? Jerzy is joined by Hoover as the pair discuss what this podcast is, what it isn't, its alt mode (lamppost), and how it compares and contrasts to other podcasts on this theme. Then, every subsequent Thursday will be a Jerz-day as we revisit the series one episode at a time. Apologies for Hoover's Betty Rubble Laugh. And nasal voice. And wrong opinions. And that he didn't just mute his part of the audio feed before exporting. Sorry. http://FourMillionYearsLater.com Befriend the FOUR MILLION YEARS LATER page on Facebook!
