Episode 451: The Very Late Paul S. Nowak

In an hour-long epilogue to last week’s landmark episode, Paul Nowak shows up for a guest appearance, and is very late. He discusses the previous week’s podcast notes – and talks about his new job and Dungeon Keeper.

This is the last episode of 2016. See you in the new, hopefully less awful 2017.
