HEH 17: Dang It the Cat Threw up… Hold On


Listen Later

For some reason throw-up is a common thread to kick this one off. Dan’s cat throws up, and Dave and Dan take a trip which involves a (rather humorous) throw-up story as well involving an airplane barf bag. We also chat about web infrastructure in other parts of the world, and how much we hate (HATE!) mobile ads.

Dan and Dave traveled to Africa.

Dave and Andrea get sick. Dave washes his pants.
