When listener DaynaDax calls in to show some support for P Flux, BLB and Dub 2 quickly race to see who can come up with the best pick up lines.

Episode 207 – The Zombie Ninja Pirate Vampire Faerie Jamboree 2Marrow
On this episode, we are all back with you, with the exception of one DJ Harmack. We find that Harmack has ditched the show to a nerd convention in Chicago IL. The event known as Capricon (or Campcom as Harmack calls it), is explained on the show, and Skates has just so happened to find Harmack’s itinerary for the weekend. After events such as “Zombie Jamboree” are uncovered, we call up Harmack to get some answers live on the air. We also discuss the SuperBowl outcome, our thoughts on Madonna’s half time show, and more. Also we answer a Valentines Day Dear Escape question for Kristina.
*We did experience some sound issues with our sound equipment during the shows live airing, so you may notice some echoing with our sound effects.

Episode 195 – Skates, You’re Fired!
With the addition of new host Kristina to the shows lineup of hosts, on this episode Al evaluates the shows budget and realizes some cuts will have to be made. Coincidentally, DJ Skates’ internship with the show has been up for over 6 months so it’s time to trim the fat! (of the show, of course). Realizing how mean this is, Mike suggests allowing Skates to reapply for his old position, while also seeking the help of other potential new interns as well. Will Skates pass the test and be rehired? Or will other candidates (like show legend, BLB) stand in his way? Also, we discuss Thanksgiving and touch a little on Black Friday.
