Hey there Scotty, Don't forget the mayor of Austin attempted to break a world record by having the most people participate in the Thriller dace at Austin City Hall. I have no idea if he broke the record or not but it was attempted. Love the podcast! Something new to listen to on my phone! Looking forward to more!
Thanks Travis! Glad you found a way to download it. Let me know if you find out more about Thriller at Austin City Hall – send me links.
