Happy 2024, Rant Army! Here’s to another great 365 days, 52 weeks and 12 months. Speaking of 12 months, that’s gonna important to what we have going on tonight.

It’s simply impossible to whittle the cavalcade of excellent possible options so fuck it- why do it when you can over do it instead !?! So, I’m gonna give you not 1 recommendation, I’m gonna give each and every one of you out there in the rant army 12 recommendations and short reviews.

Listen along as Brandon and Fat Tony, dive deep into all six episodes of the award winning but under appreciated series.
