Sharks, penguins, raves and bangers! That's what's up on the Mind Trench with Rob Bollix. Today, Mr. Bollix takes us on an under the sea adventure in another "Nature, what's up with that?" sub-segment of the Mind Trench, before pitching a glowing rave night to Kelly Tarltons and fully pumping up the listeners with a blahdy good, home-made tune. This is not one to miss.
