Episode 192: Power Hour

J. Pitts — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 01:40:09 +0000

Have you ever wanted to host a Power Hour but lacked the right mix for the occasion? Yes? Well this episode is for you!

Herein lies a 60 minute mix jam-packed with 60 1-minute hop instrumentals. The vocal version contains us talking over the instrumentals as we engage in a Power Hour. Listen and hear the progression from completely sober to silly drunk . Be forewarned, the vocals are pretty low, so it may be difficult to hear some of the podcast.

The instrumental version contains talking at the beginning and end of the episode, but not during the power hour itself.

Enjoy!
