Excellent TWiV! I actually had the opportunity to read “Ahead of the Curve” last year. I totally recommend it.
Thank you
ahh, come one, fish-picture + headlines + increased joking in audios

You won't go into that direction ?!
reminds me to the revere-headlines and our

This was a great episode, well fitting for the 100th. Keep 'em coming!
