Folks, Full disclosure, we took a different path with this episode. Given the events of the past week, we felt like it was important to have a conversation about that and our feelings about where things stand in our country.

Life happens, kinda dropped the ball on getting this one published in a timely manner. Don't worry, one more in the pipeline and it's not even the weekend. Go watch the Bin Laden doc, it was ok.

Give it a listen, leave us a review,...
