We're in Barnes & Noble today. Back over there by the albums. Did you know they sell albums? They do! And nice leather bound notebooks. We're there on the floor. We were at a table prepping the show, but we recorded it in a quiet corner. Only it wasn't always so quiet!

We'll let you in on a little secret. This episode was recorded just minutes after the last one. Back in March. Remember how we said in the description of the last podcast that we didn't mean to wait so long to publish it? Well, that goes double for *this* one. We mention an app that was free last month and is $5 now. It's still a good app but... free is so much better, no?

First, an apology. We didn't hear the horrible noise until it was all recorded and we didn't have the time to re-record. I did my best at noise reduction and can honestly say it's WAY better than it was...
