It's all on this week's In the 'Verse podcast. FireflyDrinkingSongs.com. SHOW TIMES 1:17 - Upcoming Shows, Marc and Mikey News 7:29 - 5-Minute Plot Synopsis / Show Discussion 45:23 - This Week’s Songs SHOW NOTES MARC: Welcome to In The Verse, the podcast that makes music inspired by popular media.  My name is Marc Gunn, the creator of the Firefly Drinking Songs show. MIKEY: And I’m Mikey Mason, creator of the Beer Powered Time Machine Podcast and currently the MIKEYtalks podcast. MARC: This is episode TWO of our new 10 episode season of the In The Verse Podcast. Mikey: Since we ran out of episodes of Firefly to discuss and write about, we’ll be finding inspiration in episodes of other media; TV shows, Comic Books, Cartoons, but probably not video games. MARC: As always, you can support us in this and other creative endeavors by supporting Mikey at http://patreon.com/mikeymason/ MIKEY: And by supporting Marc at http://patreon.com/celtfather   UPCOMING SHOWS & NEWS MARC GUNN EVERY WEDS, Coffee with The Celtfather @ 11 AM ET.

If, for some reason, you haven’t seen the 1977 classic animated movie, The Hobbit, you should probably pause the episode and go remedy that. MARC - Even though we won’t be summarizing the plot, listening to our episode is absolutely no substitute for watching the movie, and it will definitely contain SPOILERS if you haven’t seen the movie.. You have been warned! DISCUSSION   THANK YOU PATRONS Marc: As you know, Mikey and I make our living as full-time musicians. We love creating our music for you.
