Free Picks…the very definition of randomness. Every 20 episodes, Mike and Justin think back to stuff they’re playing, or perhaps pick a track suggested by our Discord members (Thanks ElectricBoogaloo for this month’s pick!) What follows is an episode full of tongue twisters, caller requests from questionable callers and Justin goes all in on Destiny discussion. One COULD call this a “Squeakuel” but it’s best to call it Free Picks 6: The Search For 5!
We’d love to hear what you thought about these random tracks we’ve picked! What was your favorite track? Shoot us an email at XVGMRadio@gmail.com or join in on the discussion at: facebook.com/groups/XVGMradio
