Is there like a link where I can simply right click and download it?

[Rendclaw]

At the bottom of the post. A couple of people complained that there wasn;t a link so I started posting show descriptions with them.

 

And by the way as the owner of the Underground Retrocade rightly pointed out, my rundown was for Emporium Barcade. Undergound is coming next episode.

Still don't see that. Tried Firefox and safari.

 

With so many webpages today - I wish for the old days of clear and concise layouts that are plainly labled. No need for fancy scripting and over-the-top excess code that does nothing but bog down connections and whatnot.
