Episode Seventy-Six: Edgar Cantero
In This Episode:
Edgar Cantero just moved to New York! And so the guys brought him to the Damn Library to talk about Meddling Kids, '40s child detectives, and a cocktail with a Mountain Dew ice cube. They drank the cocktail too. And talked about smashing not just the fourth wall but the first wall and everybody's various favorite child detectives.
