type II cast
Summary: Reviews, analysis and debate about all things Phish. The format is simple: roundtable semi-structured discussions about shows, tours, songs and more brought to you by the best Phish minds out there. Clips are played to support each topic, typically in the 1-4 minute range. Each episode is usually posted bi-monthly, and lasts about an 75 minutes, give or take. We enjoy when listeners leave comments on the blog, which all panelists monitor feverishly. In addition to the regular cast, typeII often has guests from other Phishy blogs. There is always something new to look forward to.
