Hello and welcome to Jabber Junction!
This is the show where we jabber on about nonsense and you guys have to listen (unlucky). Something of a variety show, Jabber Junction takes on random segments based on whatever we want to talk about. This includes current events, random facts, niche music and probably some historical nonsense (we regretfully inform you that Jabber Junction is ran by Alex and Gintare, two History students, and Annie, who's somehow even worse).
We hope you'll tune in!
