ATC126: Review of Jonathan Park Series 13: Light in the Shadows

We're back with a review of Series 13 of the Jonathan Park audio drama called Light in the Shadows. This show has really improved over the last few releases and we're thrilled to talk about it. Roy also shares a colossal newscast, we address feedback from Big Bob, Aimee Lilly, Micah, Darby, and booklearner, and in the course of the episode, we learn that we must visit Portillo's restaurant.

NOTE: We had some electronic interference at a couple points during the recording of this episode. We did as much as possible to minimize the noise and we hope it doesn't detract from your enjoyment of the program.
