Episode 2 - With special guests Rufino deSantos and JD DeFour



Welcome back! Above, you can find our second official podcast where we invited our friends Rufino and JD onto the show with us to talk about a number of things, including the PLACE Corps Send-off Celebration, the nature of a good board game, and trivia night at the Cock n' Bull, as well as featuring a number of songs, especially one by Drew DeFour, JD's brother.

We recorded this show yesterday - a very warm day in Los Angeles - and so decided to record in the dining room area of the house instead of in the chapel, as we did for Episode 1.  Unfortunately, and unbeknownst to us, the dining room area turned out to be much more echo-y than the chapel, and that feature certainly becomes noticeable on the recording.  Bear with our experimentation while we find out what works and what does not work, as the show is still enjoyable to listen to.

And here's the playlist from this episode:

  1. Magic Kids - "Superball" from Memphis
  2. Drew DeFour - "The Tower" from The Troubador
  3. Cults - "Bumper" from S/T
  4. Matt & Kim - "Block After Block" - from Sidewalks
