From the stacked AMT archive, here's retro AMT56. What were our questioneers curious about in 2008? Dead rats; sexy county names; whatever it was Meat Loaf won't do for love; and why people who are getting married suddenly want ice cream makers. This episode is only available for free for a month, but you can hear episodes 1-200 any time if you buy them from answermethisstore.com (or Apple or Amazon, if you want a more convenient option that makes us less money). Also available from those places are our five special albums - how about putting on AMT Love to get into the Valentine mood, hot stuff?  We'll be back in your feed on 7 February 2019 with all new AMT370.
