Pedalshift 2020 End-of-the-Year Holiday Spectacular

The Pedalshift Project 229: 2020 End-of-the-Year Holiday Spectacular

On this episode, we continue a tradition like no other, a futile attempt to review the year in podcast form. And since no amount of fictional podcast elves or award shows can possibly out-2020 this year, we have special guests and friends of the show Brock Dittus and Aaron Flores of the Sprocket Podcast to help make sense of this year and the year to come.
