While Al is away, Rich Johnson and Samantha Gemini Stevens hijack the podcast! Gemini shares the fun of her trip to NeNe Japanese Contemporary Bistro for lunch and Oscar's Steakhouse at The Plaza for dinner.

Al left a little appetizer: a few minutes with Sam Marvin talking about his now-open second Echo & Rig - this one in The District at Green Valley Ranch.
