Hi anyone who can't find NNF, The episodes are in the regular NNF feed in the Earwolf section of the app. If you aren't seeing them you can pull to refresh when you have the NNF list open. This should refresh the feed and bring you the full list of episodes. If you keep having issue, please email support (address in my signature) and I can take a closer look.

Immediately throwing in my own opinion even though I haven't even finished the tour yet (I know, I know, shameful) and say that all of Drew Tarver's songs in the Atlanta episode were just the most delightful thing and I laughed until I had big fat tears running down my face.

Dear Earwolf Kegerator, Thank you for this wonderful episode. -Shannon
