What’s up, dudes? It’s been a very busy and trying holiday season, and with illness and injury striking hard, it’s been difficult to record all my episodes I normally cover. So instead, I got the Christmas Podcast Network together to help me get one last episode out before Christmas! These guys are the best! They love Christmas as much (and in some cases more) than I do, so it was a treat having them on. Make sure to check out ChristmasPodcasts.com and listen to all the rad pods out there! Oh, and we had some special guest appearances by CM Chuck of Just Another Friday Night, Joe Martinez from Now Watch This, and Charlyn Lewis of Take a Chic Peek!  It was a great time!
