Second sign off
I've had a lot of fun tonight and I hope you have too. Remember Punisher it's a way of life not just a life of way. And that's the kind of sign-off that you'll get from Brian Foster in the future. A weird pun that kind of makes sense. I'd like to thank my guests tonight: Brains Posterior, Ash versus evil Johnson, and Laura Baily (in angelic voice).
