Hi Scott and Melissa,
I’m listening to you talk about the “Peep Store”, and had to laugh when Melissa said she thought at first that it was referring to the Easter candy. I had the same though! At least for a few seconds.. I thought it was similar to the Ethel M’s factory or M&M World- ha!
I also wondered if you two are planning any sort of listener meetup during New Media Expo in August?

Hey, Cyndi.
It is clear that both you and Melissa are clean of mind. . .me? Not so much.
We hadn’t planned any kind of meetup at this point. Something to consider though. . .perhaps I’ll ask if others would be interested in the next show.

I’m surprised that your plumber didn’t mention periodically checking and/or replacing the “sacrificial anode rod” in the water heater. Might extend the life of the heater (in addition to flushing).
Great show. Almost sounded like one of those late night TV “No Money Down - Get Rich on Home Forclosure” infomercials… lol

Hmmm…the “sacrificial anode rod” sounds like something we used to do in the Air Force. When a new airman came to our shop (Electronic Warfare), we would send them to the parts depot to pick up a “Phelopian Tube” from one of the gals running the depot. Much humor ensued thereafter.

Some episodes ago, I believe (no pun intended) that you talked about Criss Angel and his probable camera tricks.
A Tampa TV station busted him on his “implosion” escape:

Yeah! I talked about that on this episode. More proof. . .can’t wait for Cirque du Chrissay.
