Tangent66: S7AR WARS

When I was ten years old, my brother would make my mom take us to a local baseball card/comic shop called The Dragon's Den. He was there solely to accrue his holdings in cardboard totems to athletic greats, but I was a willing participant in these trips because I was able to explore the rest of the store- and its the comic collection. Those were truly blissful days. On the wall of The Dragon's Den, seemingly 100 ft. away from my hands hung a poster encased in a gorgeous frame. Every time we went to the shop, I would ask the clerk "How much for the poster?" "Same as last time, $150." Damn, I'll never have enough money to buy that thing. I would make sure my mom overheard the exchange, hoping she would eventually have an epiphany that yes, she should buy this thing for me, and end my Sisyphean struggle. That day never happened, but the point was never to own the poster but that something so simple could represent so much value to me. Tom Jung painted something that would be ingrained in the minds of millions around the world. The poster was a symbol, the real prize was the film itself.

BEHOLD, EP57A. AND THESE SHALL BE YOUR WAHLBERGS. THIS TIME, IT'S NO JOKE.


PREORDER66 - EP57A "REORDER66"
i.e. Okay! Tangent Time!
Recorded 03.19.2014

The five stages of EP57: Rage. Regret. Reschedule. Rerecord. Rebirth. REORDER66, START. Not ones to be defeated by terrible circumstances, the 66ers return for a second crack at a game-changing episode...but mostly just deliver bad Wahlberg impersonations. What?!...No! A new direction - this time, it's no joke.




EP57 IS LIVE! ALL IS NOT LOST!


PREORDER66 - EP57 "MARKED"
i.e. What?! No!!!
Recorded 03.06.2014

After EP56, PREORDER66 had to change. The new direction begins here. This is EP57.
