This episode brings the melodious voice of Olivia Kissel to your very own living room! Or car...or iPod...or what-have-you...anyway, she's awesome! You're going to love her! Tammy relays some shocking (SHOCKING) news to me (you all probably knew about it ages ago...I'm always the last to know!), I recommend some music and Tammy talks about some super cool upcoming events! Note: I interviewed Olivia in February of this year (2011) and since then Zafira (her troupe) has disbanded to pursue adventures as soloists. :-) Download Episode 51 Or Listen Here: On This Episode: Olivia Kissel TribalCon Carnycast Potential Cast Twin Peaks Podcast Upside Down and Halfway to Happyland (Joss Whedon stuff) - Episode with Tammy!
