Hands up if you can tell we recorded this episode a lot earlier than the ones we've released so far! 

Today's episode is all about fulfilling your dreams of becoming a pool shark. We profile a few notable hustlers and discuss the tips and tricks if you're willing to risk an ass-kicking to win some decent money at  the local pool hall. There are still pool halls, right???
