We paid our bills, Allen. It's time to start the show again. Same Mike, different vibe. No one is safe. The budget now allows a team of hosts to join in. Listen to how AWESOME they all sound talking about movies, video games, travel & real-world issues that you will find interesting. We might be able to afford special guests on the show at the expense of catering. Sorry, Titus. Strap in. This is going to be wild.
