editor's note - before I played 'Horror Business,' I said I'd only ever do Danzig-era Misfits....then when i looked at the LITERALLY LAST episode, looks I played 'Helena'...which, for you, discerning listener, is of course sung by Michale Graves. so, tldr, I'm full of shit. 

Andrew's "weekly" dumb fact you never wanted to fucking know......your fingernails grow faster on your dominant hand.

Stay safe and healthy out there, comradarinos. And keep supporting music. If you don't feel comfortable going to live shows, buy some shirts from your favorite artists. If you don't feel comfortable wearing clothes, buy some stickers or buttons. If you don't feel comfortable "owning" material goods, just send the band some fucking venmobucks or whatever, ok

DID YOU KNOW.....more than a quarter of all your bones are located in your feet?
