We're calling this The Lost Episode.  It was so close to be scrapped and almost seemed doomed from the start.  Corrupt data files, lost interviews, technology BS and Big Kahuna was close to throwing in the towel.  We recorded this about 6 weeks ago, so, of course a lot of the info is crazy late, but we've been told it's better than nothing.  Hope you enjoy what you can and if not, don't worry, Episode 13 is just around the corner.
