So it is with sort of heavy hearts that we lay this podcast to rest.BUTJust because one podcast has to end doesn't mean another one can't take its place! Ashley and I are like a parasite. We can only truly thrive when we're doing what we do on the internet for the fine folks like you. If you're reading this, we want to let you know that we are BACK! For real this time.

What's this? A show? In your podcast feed? But how!? That's correct everyone. Ashley and I figured out how to do a show for at least a night. We had the stars align and took advantage of the opportunity. We dusted off the microphones and sat down to chat for a little bit. We didn't have any news because, quite frankly, we were not prepared. But did you expect anything else?
