Widge’s Sonic Emporium on Louder Than War Radio – 16 December 2023

Episode 26
“I Can See Someone Else’s Shadow in the Room”

Welcome. Here are what passes for show notes. The reason the playlist is in the format you find it is because I really need a life. The very overwrought explanation can be found here.

Format is:
