i need to formally cheer for jesse jarnow who has been training for the podcast olympics since 2003. here on frow show #43 he shows why he's the clear favorite to nab the gold in bejing....if only he was going. in a selfless act of humanity jesse recently announced that he would boycott the games for political reasons. and while he will continue to eat chinese food and podcast great music, his presence will be sorely missed. for now - we have frow show 43 - quite a treat for you and me.
