It's our first podcast of the new year and try as it might, not even the flu can keep us down and the KollabCast keeps its streak alive with 101 straight weeks of podcasting! This week's episode is a little shorter due to the compromised states of our hosts but we do get in some good discussion about the Mariah Carey meltdown, faulty memories, and our new year intentions! What are your intentions this coming year?
