Rec the Thing

This is a really awesome podfic that a bunch of pod iccers made for the Pod_Together event this year. I think the format is super creative and clever, and fits so well with 9-1-1 canon. The voices are so distinct and the sound effects are fun. Plus it highlights some really topical issues related to disability and cyber incidents.
