ATM Episode #4

Warning! Mega Huge Episode!
Well I got carried away there didn't I? I probably should have done it in a Pt 1 and Pt 2 but that would have taken me another week before I could put it out. Audio quality during the interview in the main feature is wobbly but I hope it is still bearable.

ATM Episode #3

Swords Special
A beginners guide to swords, their history, function, myth and how to buy one suited to your purpose without being ripped off.

This is the re-edit of Ep#3 with the terrible pause, belch and mucked up dialogue removed! Terribly sorry about that if you heard the first version. Although I had a giggle at my idiocy I am sure many others did not. The idiocy at the end of the show however is intentional!
