Mission accomplished. Regular players Daniel "DanQ" Quick, Stephanie "Makahlua" and Michael "Ubermarklar" Bryant are accompanied by fellow co-operative Civilization V multiplayer players in the fourth TurnCast (TC) special entitled "Mixed Signals". Reading between the lines becomes all but required listening across its 19m28s runtime.
TurnCast is the third spin-off of the Civ strategy-centric PolyCast on which Quick and Makahlua serve as regular co-hosts; the modding-centric ModCast was the first.
