Podcast is live!
The podcast for the week of 2/6 is live and available on our Soundcloud page here. We are still working to get it listed on iTunes and Google Play, but should be coming soon. Bear with us as we figure out this whole podcasting thing. My first thought as I listened was that we need to smile more, and maybe not record at midnight... The notes for the show are below.
Feature interview:
