Hack The Planet, Drum & Bass PodcastHack The Planet 500 on 7-6-24 -- 500!This episode of Hack The Planet was singular in its scope, energy, and trouble. We've never had so many technical issues, including four system crashes! I wish it had been planned because it makes for a great story. In the end, it became a fantastic theme, and our live listeners were awesome enough to continue listening throughout our multiple disconnects.
Thanks for listening and being a part of helping us reach episode 500 of our weekly show!
