Channing: I know they are a gamma irradiator recovery team, but I totally would listen to any music they also might choose to produce. Possibly on the strength of their name alone.
Huh. I’d think they’d be mesonic. Not that Marcie would have a problem with it, but Chris seemed kind of nonplussed last time anything baryonic came up, and baryonicity kind of requires that everyone be, er, plussed.

At first glance I thought that said “Hot and Byronic,” which would also fit them pretty well.
