Fargo - An Unofficial Podcast

A.Ron is sick and the show notes are suffering for it.  But this otherwise excellent podcast for Fargo’s extremely excellent episode 206, “Rhinoceros” managed to be recorded just before the precise instant he lost his voice.  We talk a lot about Lou and Hank, the majesty that is Karl Weathers, Jabberwockies and aliens and just all kinds of stuff.  And while A.Ron might be on death’s door, the email bag is quite healthy.  Enjoy, take some vitamin C and get your flu shot, and we’ll see you next week!
