This week, I was not availible to record, so Justin (@mcafee15) stepped in and recorded the entire podcast himself, there is no intro music this week either, as my being away made it difficult to edit in the intro. @mcafee15 did a great job in my absence, but you can expect me to be flying solo for the rest of the December.
Justin did a great job talking about the topics this week, which were all over the place.
