This weeks episode brings you all the best puns and rhymes. On a more important note Andy calls Russell charming. Yes, he has it on tape y'all. Russell is so flustered he forgets to compliment him back. Mutual back patting aside our hosts rate Google's recent foray into hardware and talk about those crazy peeps from Seattle trying to use a fishing rod to steal Google's hard earned lunch.
