We put a 1st draft of this show out there briefly, but it didn't quite deliver the low-end frequencies like we had hoped, so we've done some more work with this one. The SBD signal was a bit difficult to work with in some regards, so we did our best to compensate for the deficiencies. Overall, improvements have now been made and we sincerely hope everyone enjoys the listen.
