- POD BONUS FOOTAGE
  
  Alf Alpha is amazing, he provided all the music for this pod. Here is some bonus footage of Alf with Carlos and Armando talking about how they share a unique bond. Truly brothers from different mothers.
  
  ps: Let me know if you want more Date Farmers. I shot a lot with the guys and have tons of interesting footage.
