Left Turns in Metal

In traffic, LEFT TURNS are often far more dangerous than right turns, often resulting in far more accidents that sadly, many never fully recover from.

Somehow, the same rule holds true in Metal* (and potentially, even this podcast!) as well:  some LEFT TURNS are legendary. But as is (sadly) far too often the case…many LEFT TURNS, not so much.In traffic, LEFT TURNS are often far more dangerous than right turns, often resulting in far more accidents that sadly, many never fully recover from.
