On the very first episode the hosts Nigel and Rachel battle with even the most basic of technology. With one mic working they attempt to answer the question - why are we doing a podcast? With some guest interviews, Thanksgiving Evening highlights and an insight into Tim Dobson's early morning routine, this was more than they could have hoped for. And plenty of wittering as well.
