Little Update from the boys over at American Loser. We've got a monster topic to start off Black History Month but between logistics, snow storms and a 16 hour drive back to New Jersey, we decided that rather than give you another "solo" episode that we'd delay this episode until we can do it properly in studio later this week.

Sorry for the delay but thank you for understanding and keeping up the support. We will be back in style within a few days!
