Mission: Accomplished! Funds: Raised!

We hit our goal of $500 raised for Camp Quest Minnesota! Thank you so much to all our donors who made this possible.

Our Guests Love Us!

Hey, we’ve linked to Brianne Bilyeau’s blog over at FreethoughtBlogs a few times this week.  She was a guest on our podcast and everything so it seems somewhat appropriate.

Episode 23 – Beverly Hills Boners

Our December Geeky Boner episode includes conversations about Butt-Numb-a-Thon, cleaning and Molly’s secret shame.  A secret so embarrassing, it is almost worse than the embarrassing thing she is forced to do for losing the WALL-E bet from Episode 21. Then we talk about the Island nation of Malta and that’s because the answers to our […]
