Travis Menard stops in again to apologize to me for everything he’s done wrong and to cover the Season 3 episode, “One More Pallbearer”!

Travis is currently the second fiddle to Brandon on the Apathetic Enthusiasm Podcast and Interdimensional RSS: The Unofficial Rick and Morty Podcast. He’s a pretty cool dude, overall… Brandon likes him well-enough.
