About the Designer:
Dead Bunnies is a YouTube channel created by my sons and I. We focus our content mainly on gaming and pop-culture. I have restored multiple antique radios in the past and decided to take a different approach with this radio. The video can be found at https://youtu.be/gHk4_rm1BwY .
