Are you ready? Tonight’s the night! I’ve seen Scandal. The pilot, via iTunes, and…Snippets here and there. I know it’s good. EVERYONE knows it’s good.

Instead, I’ll encourage you to keep watching. Here’s the promo for the third episode: Ah, Murder. Every time I see that shuttle captain from…

Yes, this is about 2 years old. I don’t mind. Do you? 😉 I don’t know if you remember this, but when I first thought about podcasting, I did an episode on The Firestarter Sessions by Danielle LaPorte. It’s still one of the best non-fiction books I’ve ever read.
