THIS WEEK: A "provocative" e-mail from a mysterious listener! Who is this man who has reached out from his "secret lair" to attempt to communicate with our podcasters? CONTROVERSY! Also featuring: Benci's velvety tones! AURALLY PLEASING! Podcaster Rat Pack comparisons! WAY OFF-TARGET! Scott' latest reasoning behind a hasty exit from his "co-host" duties! WHO CARES?!?
