We are Ken Jennings and John Rodrick.

We speak to you from our present, which we can only assume is your distant past, the

turbulent time that was the early 21st century.

So whether you're listening from an advanced civilization or have just reinvented the

technology to decrypt our transmissions, this is our legacy to you.

This is our time capsule.

This is The Omnibus.
