We’re back after a few weeks’ absence.

It feels like only yesterday that we moved out on our own, set up WidescreenWarrior.com, and shortly thereafter celebrated our 200th episode. Now it’s 100 episodes later… but the more things change, the more they stay the same. We deal with the technical troubles of adding a few more seats as we gather together the current iteration of the show along with the Queen of the Podcast to talk...
