Yowza! We rambled quite a bit on this show. I suppose if we had one of our shortest shows that covered a large amount of news last week we should have a show that's the longest to date and covers very little news this week. The full-length show is almost two hours and we cover passwords, outsourcing (you're doing it wrong), old stars (celestial), death stars and, inexplicably, hairdressers and horoscopes. We also have some listener feedback that takes us almost 20 minutes to cover because we just won't shut up. If you want to listen to the short(er) version sans the listener feedback, you can get it here.
