Howdy, folks!

I want to, first, apologize that it has been so long since an update to this podcast. Life has been absolutely insane for everyone involved, and it just hasn't happened for a while. HOWEVER! This episode is special, and very random. It was recorded on May 14, and I FINALLY got it out now, before the end of May. I do hope you enjoy the special guests, and the conversation throughout the show.

Episode 6 is dedicated to Angel Davis, our (Dreams’ and Kithore’s) little man who left this world three years ago today. We will always love you, Angel.

This episode is ALSO dedicated to Graven - the man who tweets so many news stories I can barely keep up. Heh. Every news story on this episode was tweeted to OMGNAP by Graven, so this is officially dubbed the Big G Episode, even if we aren’t usually naming episodes.

Featuring only Dreams and Juuno this week (and some fun cameos by Kithore), we have a few tears reminiscing about those we have lost, and then proceed to have a blast with our usual news stories. We hope you enjoy, and as always, feel free to email us at omgnap.gmail.com or send us a tweet at @omgnap. :-)

As I am missing my co-host again (I hope you feel better, Jeppy!!!), there are a couple of guest hosts joining me this week. Please welcome Jeremy and Jur in their podcasting debut! They have never participated as a host in a podcast before now, and I had so much fun recording with them.

Please remember, if you would like to send us an email or share an interesting news story that you find, feel free to email us at [email protected].

Keep a watch on the twitter feed (@omgnap) for a request I'm going to make to our listeners. If it pulls through, it should be a lot of fun, and it will result in an intro for the podcast! :-)

Hello!

Please excuse the sometimes grainy quality of the audio. We had inclement weather, and it occasionally played havoc on the Skype call with the guest hosts. :-) Also please excuse the tardiness of this episode - with the holiday weekend, the recording time was adjusted so people could enjoy their families on Easter.

Other than that, this episode was a total blast with the help of Juuno and Ogre. We missed Jeppy, as he had family aggro, but he should be joining me again next week for yet another edition.

Here are the ever-present links to the stories we spoke about in this episode! (There are a lot this time.)

Thank you for listening!

- Dreams

Note: This SHOULD have an explicit tag. I did mark the "Explicit - yes" box. If it doesn't, be aware that this episode has more than the usual amount of cursing (though still isn't nearly as bad as most movies or late night television shows IMHO), and some news articles that would not be safe for work or the ears of children.

--------------

We had a special guest this week! Joining Jeppy and Dreams is the incredibly charming Juuno! Juuno joins us all the way from Las Vegas, and her laughter just makes this week's episode so, so much fun. We hope you enjoy!

Don't forget! If you run across interesting news articles, feel free to email us at [email protected]. We would love to hear from you!
