    Ep. 23 Direwolf - Winter Rituals

    This week on Black Manifold Transmissions, Faizon Love goes missing. After a brief search, the crew decides, "Well... let's enjoy just a little quiet." That peace doesn't last long, as Faizon is eventually discovered strapped to a rocket after one hell of a bender. Then it's off to the Matrix to review Direwolf's Winter Rituals, before Faizon makes a life-changing decision that could change the fate of the Manifold forever.

    Ep. 20 Neurosis - An Undying Love for a Burning World

    The Zune of Rune has updated. Without warning, the ancient cursed music player awakens and delivers a new transmission from Neurosis: An Undying Love for a Burning World. Smog and Brake do what they've always done when the Zune speaks—they listen. No quests. No monsters. No desperate escapes. Just two travelers sitting around the signal, letting the riffs wash over them while they talk about the songs, the atmosphere, the emotions, and whatever strange places the music takes them. Sometimes the greatest adventure is pressing play.
