Warning, this is a NSFW episode: Montie and I swear and drink a fair amount of whiskey, so be warned before listening. It's the closest thing to actually sitting in on a conversation between us; this is how it typically goes when we hang out. Also, he demonstrates a few things, so you might want to switch to the Youtube video for that.

That said, enjoy (because I sure did!) The links mentioned in this episode: https://wimsblog.com/108
