Summary: Note from Branden: Apparently I must have been visited by the Doctor or the Men in Black because up until today I could have sworn that I was on schedule for editing and not a week behind. (I'm tying to remember how the week passed me without me realizing it). Anyway I apologize for the delay and I have started working on the next episode right away. No rest for the weary! Note from Peter: In the interest of getting this out as quickly as possible, I'm going to post it now and do the show notes later. The post will be edited with the show notes in the next day or so. Further note from Peter: The week did not go how I expected it to, but here's the show notes. Thank you for your patience. One quick reminder about show notes: they represent what we've referenced, not necessarily things that we endorse!
