Better Radio LIVE! - The Best of Season One
Thu, 22 Nov 2018 15:00:00 +0000
A brand-new buffet of all-new episodes is coming in 2019! Between now and then, we hope that you'll enjoy a few bonus episodes from our lead-lined radio vault. This episode was recorded in front of a studio audience in sunny Los Angeles, CA, at the very secretive Dangerfields 2.
This was something of a 'best-of' show for season 1, and harkens back to our roots, which means the show was still called Better Radio!
Transmissions:
- Continuum
- Damned Man
- Dr. Fiendish
- Passive Aggressive Teacher
- The Box
- Pet Tank

- Book of Z-Rob: Parking
