This week, Edward, Shrey, and Kyle tell us all about their journey to exotic Upstate New York for the Gathering of Fiends, in which evildoers around the world get together over 11 days to discuss the best ways to subjugate and/or destroy the... oh, wait. Hang on one second. OK... I'm just now hearing that this is, in fact, a Gathering of FRIENDS. That is... substantially different. Since I have no idea what goes on at that kind of thing, it's fortunate that these guys are here to tell us all about it. PRODUCTION NOTE: You might notice some hiccups and other sound wobbliness in this one. The gremlins responsible for this issue have been hurled into the sun, and shouldn't be a problem for Episode 3.
