We were definitely in rare form as equipment malfunctioned, Phro went on a few of his classic rants and everything seemed to fall apart at times. Maybe you wont even notice! It was still a great show nonetheless especially when we reached the subject of female anatomy. Uh ooooh, we can see the emails coming in already.

Had a GREAT time, more fun than usual this time. Even though all of our scheduled interviews completely fell through, it was a great time.
