Beverages!

Podcasting is thirsty work; it’s crucial that everyone involved stay hydrated. The following fine beverage contributed to the success of this episode: As the hour was later than we usually record, Ed was in the mood for a crisp non-alcoholic beer, so he went with his favorite, Clausthaler.
