Andy and the Michaels have a happy crazy fun ball time while dealing with disconnects, background noise, and partial listening to prior shows. We migrated over to the darkside of our tweets with littlecosm. Complain about Skype 5′s new interface. Begin taking your donations for a woogie for our special guest co-host from down under – Kelly. And celebrate that ePredator has leveled-up to demi-celebrity. So sit back, crank up your speakers, and enjoy the show.
