Crates & Vinyl

This was recorded well before Lockdown took place in the UK in March 2020. I don't think we realised the severity of COVID-19 at that point, I know I (Jordan) didn't. 

Also, Terriss wrote up the notes for this and then we've lost them since, so discussion points are lacking:

• COVID-19
• Beer
• Music

Season 2 of Crates & Vinyl will be here soon, so stay connected x
