Exactly what you were hoping for, give or take.

During the June 6, 2013 edition of the 68Comeback Special, we recalled that June is the most dreadful month (with early June being the most full of dread), made fun of Nine Inch Nails, Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Explosions in the Sky all in one go, and broke with tradition long enough to talk nice about Folk Fest* for once. On the Grade 6 Report, Gabe and I discussed the bitter end of elementary school, sundials and what makes a good music teacher. And those secret plans, the ones we make while the mics are off? We made more.
