Chapter 122: "I don't think we're in rural Kentucky anymore" ...as read by Roy Culver of Nuclear Blast Records Roy Culver. I found him. He wasn't exactly hiding...he wasn't exactly talking either.

DJ Sacrifice mentioned his first recorded performance in about 20 years and here we are talking to the gentlemen behind the project! Reid Otto and Christian "soldier" Johnson are the duo making all this damn noise. They are called Tetelestai and they aren't making music to make you happy.

Chapter 115: "You Gotta Be Picky Sometimes (Part One)" ...as read by Jeff Gretz of Zao I love talking to drummers because I feel like I can speak the language. Well, leave it to Jeff Gretz to be so far beyond talented that he can speak the elevated level of the language of drumming. I can't say enough good things about Jeff. I have tremendous respect for a drummer that can be sitting on his couch watching football and within two hours be reading the notation for a drum solo without music
