Episode 2- Keeping It Un-Political

Our very second podcast!!!

Warning: The audio levels are off a little bit. Ashley sounds like she's whispering and I sound like I'm shouting (I am). If you are listening to the podcast in the car... or... well, anywhere... be warned that right after Weird News comes the intro to Loose Lips Sink Ships, with the "gun shots". I made the damn podcast and it scared the crap out of me when I was in the car. SORRY! I'll have it fixed for the next one.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update: I adjusted the audio levels on the afternoon of 4/5, so Loose Lips shouldn't totally give you a heart attack, but if you downloaded before now... it will still be all funky. Good luck.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So yes, as with the last one, we’re still working out the kinks... so bear with us. We’re trying, damn you.

Side note: It’s always painful to go back and listen to yourself speak. Don’t ever decide to do a podcast. For instance, why did I say “yourself” instead of “yourselves”? I was referring to many people!!! YOU'RE KILLING ME SMALLS!

==========================================================
Here are some highlights:
==========================================================

-Banter and News-

Ashley did not have to work on Friday. The furlough ban has been appealed and so furloughs are back on. This is both a positive and negative development.
We have a fan letter! Thanks Crystal, keep listening.
We are having some issues with Itunes right now, but it should be all completed in the next few weeks. It’s on there right now, but I can’t guarantee it will be there.

Side note, why Ashley gotta be knockin’ on Werther's originals?!?
