A weekly update/preview of my latest podcasts, and a look back at some of my previous audio work from this week in history over the past 40+ years.
This week's Minutia Men is called "Shut Your Swinepipe" and it's our 350th episode. You can listen to it here. The Minutia Men Celebrity Interview this week is one of our most entertaining. We talked to 1970s teen heart-throb, Tony DeFranco. And if you're a Premier League fan you know the title race is nuts this year. Adam and I discuss it in this week's episode.
