Happy episode 50! In this season finale episode, Barnabas gives a speech about the evolution of cryptology, we play listener messages, and we share a last bit of history (about radio!) before we're out of time in the season. In the story, Bob, Cole, and Caw send a message...and it all comes to a head. With a twist!
