This week Kevin, Dave and Darrin cover the upcoming training class and ice dive.

* * We continue to refine our audio workflow on Discord. We like it better than skype but do discover a few things we need to fix. This week it was Kevin's audio. We probably had some auto-leving turned on that fought our recording software. We fixed as much as we could in post, but there are still a few spots where Kevin may be a little quiet. We may add a host "quieter" as a stretch goal on patreon * *
