Oh my, this show is a doozy. And by doozy we mean it's AMAZING. Or something! Woooooooof.

Open Call with Chris & Eric

Escape To or From Margaritaville

We watched Season 1 of "Encore!" so you HAVE TO. Spoilers! (If you're seeing this episode for a second time in your feed, it's because the first had some audio glitches like the theme song was missing, and I can't abide that. No sir, I can't. This is Chris. Hello how are you. My face is better. Does anyone actually read these summaries? If so, send us an email at opencallpodcast@gmail.com with the codeword "salamander" and you'll win some kind of prize.)
