Chapter 88: "The STING of freelance art" ...as read by Jaci KVLT

Jaci Raia and our buddy Seth Werkheiser joins the first chapter of 2017 for Jacis' story and some of the obligatory 2016 list stuff...but with a slight twist. Jaci is an art director, designer, author, MetalBandCampGiftClub logo creator, all around ass-kicker and she was awesome enough to come on and admit to a few hair bands and tell us a bit about what she does. Then the three of us give our top three releases on 2016 that we think might not be on a lot of lists. Kinda going' off-road with the list. Enjoy. Happy New Year, you lovely scattered few.
