A Burger Episode
Good morning, Gus! Chris stopped by and we're buzzing from his stories. We also dropped into Spinning Buns, a burger concept that's maybe a better idea than it is a food. Either way, we're full, we're buying stuff at Best Buy, and we're walking around the outskirts of the Mueller area. Enjoy.

Tattoo Parlor Coffee
Good Morning, Gus! We’re in the back of a tattoo parlor getting coffee this week. Well, Dark Horse is more like an art gallery/tattoo parlor.

Welcome Back, Gustavo (and Geoff)
Good morning, Gus! We’re back for 8 episodes, this one from Figure 8 on Chicon, recorded some time ago after Rooster Teeth went under.
