Welcome to our shortest and least explicit podcast ever.

The Defenders, unfortunatley, based on some bad advice tried to enhance their awesomeness… only to fail in the end.

Worry not dear Mirthlings for your Defenders will be back in force within the turn of the earth! (once we’re back in broadcast range you understand, I mean do you know how much a geostationary orbit would actually cost!?!).
