Great podcast! I have 2 suggestions: make the podcast longer because there is too much info crammed in and also ditch the fake dialog. It's confusing to listen to you 2 talking and switching conversations half sentence. Thanks!
I'm apparently pretty good pinball... I vote for a mini tournament in the ATL 😀
