  • Chris and Ed open the inbox one last time to close out the week of too many treats.

    Thanks for joining us on this 5 episodes in 5 days run to celebrate our anniversary. We'll probably start answering e-mails more quickly now!

  • The week of too many treats continues with ALL HAT MAN ALL THE TIME (plus one little bonus story in there).

    So join us as we go through a bunch of listener-submitted stories chronicling their potential run-ins with the man himself.

  • If you listen to the show, then you know we’re the pits when it comes to e-mail. It’s part that we’re bad about checking, and part that we get overwhelmed when we do. So we thought it would be fun (aka: a long grueling chore) to spend our anniversary trying to make up for year of un-replied to e-mails — RIGHT IN FRONT OF EVERYONE.

    Let’s open the inbox and hit send on the first of 3 listener-engagement-ridden Anniversary BONUS EPISODES.
