Yes, the gaps between episodes are growing – something we address in the first few minutes of the show. Hopefully we’ll get that sorted out soon, but otherwise we’ll produce episodes as we can. Don’t worry – we’ll have a big blowout if we ever decide to call it a day (it won’t happen silently). In the meantime, we catch up over reviews of G.I. Joe: Retaliation...
