Great episode. the disclaimer at the start seemed overblown until it definitely didn't.

this is just a comment about Grilling JR in general. Conrad has done an amazing job starting all these new podcast but I sure am getting sick to death of hearing his voice and his horrible salesman adverts, The guy clearly loves the sound of his own voice.
