    The Summer 2013 highlight episode! We experienced some data corruption and lost some of the data for the podcast recorded for this week. While SofaBear works on restoring the corrupted data, he's put together an episode comprised of his favorite clips from the summer of 2013. We have clips from episode 2 all the way up to episode 11. This is a great episode for a first time PNR listening wanting to get a broad look at what we're all about. Enjoy!
