So Spencer and I are unfortunately slammed with work this week but to give you all something still to listen to, we broke one of our old episodes out of the copyright vault. That's right after a long awaited fight we have re-released our highly popular, Philadelphia episode. Thanks again to all our listeners and hope you enjoyed our D&D episode. We'll be back in two weeks with the top tier commentary we always bring.
