CHANGES ARE COMING! (please read)

After some real serious thought I have decided that I'm not in a position (time-wise) to start the THIS WEEK IN METAL/Nu Metal Ranking stream/podcast at this point. I am instead going to try a 3rd request stream on Sunday nights so that we can get to all of the requests!

At this time it will be Sunday, Monday and Thursday streams, but having a stream 2 nights in a row doesn't make sense to me, so I am considering moving Monday to EITHER Tuesday night OR Tuesday morning 9am... (please let me know your preferences, I know A LOT of people would like a US-friendly stream time).

This week I have Of Mice & Men, Crystal Lake and Patient 67 on Thursday night, so the streams will be Sunday, Monday and Wednesday nights as a one-off.
