Dresden Codak — ConSequential — Haunted Phonograph

It's a bumper episode this week. More comics! More jokes! More interviews! More inexplicable digressions about cauliflower. These people got mad brassica love, yo.

Mentioned in this week's show:

Legal Disclaimer: Rufus Wainwright definitely went blind from drugs. We checked on Wikipedia and at least one other place.

Our jazzy theme tune was provided by Chris Whitworth. You can find more of his music on the Music by Programmers album, which is raising funds for Bletchley Park and the National Museum of Computing.
