Episode 24 - The POCKET OF DOOOOOOOM!

Welcome to the POCKET OF DOOM!
Full disclosure, the reason why we didn't have an episode release Monday, is because Chris was in crisis mode and too busy to record. In this episode Chris covers a week's worth of drama that started last Wednesday, and (we hope) concluded today. It includes power outages, internet connection issues, and a virus.........or was it. We also read a weirdly timed email from listener Adam, who really appreciates Cory.
