This interview is part of the larger interview library compiled before Grim Philly existed yet in podcast form outside of the original walking tours from which studio recordings later sprung. Please forgive the earlier discrepancies with sound quality and plosives herein – as the interview content is good. The sound quality less-so. The recording is complete also with an earlier introduction and pilot-name, (World History X) before the official launch of Grim Philly studio podcast in 2019.
