November 27, 2018Episode 26: Orange Marmalade
We had pretty low expectations for this show, and perhaps because of that, we were pleasantly surprised.

This would be last episode of 2018 as Peter would be going away on holidays. So we wish everybody a great holiday season and we'll talk again in the new year!
