Well, due to my moving apartment, that I mentioned last week, I wasn't able to get an episode out. Although I had my new office/studio almost set up, and was ready to record last Thursday, I found that the mic stand that I've been using for year's would not attach to...

250th Episode! Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes… (Podcast 250)
