It's podcast time, and it's a (relatively) brief, (relatively) under-produced episode this time, with me and Jessamyn chatting about MeFi stuff for about 70 minutes because my voice was a little worn out.

Because I just want to get this dang thing out the door, there are no extra musical bumpers this episode, but I assure you there's lots of good stuff to listen to over on MeFi Music so if you feel so inclined you should probably just hit pause on this every twenty minutes or so and listen to something.
