This week on our panel, we have Josh Susser. JOSH: Hey everyone! CHUCK: David Brady. DAVID: In the unlikely event of a water landing, your headphones can be used as a floatation device. CHUCK: Avdi Grimm. AVDI: Hey from Pennsylvania! CHUCK: Katrina Owen. KATRINA: Hello! CHUCK: I'm Charles Max Wood from devchat.tv and this week, have a special guest – it’s Bryan Helmkamp. BRYAN: Hi everyone! DAVID: We are missing someone today. CHUCK: Really? JOSH: Yeah. Where is James? AVDI: Haven’t seen him. DAVID: James can’t be here today because he’s tutoring the pope in the scientific method. CHUCK: All right. JOSH: We’ll go with that. DAVID: Yeah. CHUCK: All right. So we have a couple of announcements before we get going. The first one I'm going to let Katrina give us the Best of Parley.
