Hey Mynocks.  Dee does a passionate "State of X-Wing" address.  This episode may not be for everyone, but I believe Dee echoes a large chunk of the X-Wing Community. However to keep things light we have Dallas and his new Academy Pilot Shea to talk about how new players can get into the game.  There's also a fairly lengthy post bumper discussion on assorted topics.  Enjoy.
