As we get closer to Festivus, the guys continue to drive thru a hodgepodge of new tags, and welcome a few new taggers this week.  We thank MikeTheBee for his nice shout outs this week, while Andy gets excited about the upcoming Home Camp 3 in London next week.  Don’t forget to keep the suggestions coming for episode 200.  So sit back, pour yourself a glass of eggnog and enjoy the show.  (Do people still drink eggnog?)
