Who shall know the mystery of The Cassette Culture Podcast? for It is the mask and will of Those that were when time was not. TheeBradMiller is the priest of the Ether, the Dweller in Air and hath many faces that none shall recall.
The waves freeze before Him; Gods dread His call. In men’s dreams He whispers, yet who knoweth His form?

You paint what happens next. Bear in mind you own the goddamned hat you’re wearing, the motherfucking shirt on your back, and there is nothing that can stop you. This is your soundtrack.
