The DWI Podcast – Episode One
I’ve wanted to try my hand at Podcasting for a while now, and am really excited at the result. This took most of the weekend to get done, but I had a lot of fun. I’m far better at writing than I am with public speaking. This initial entry is chock full of “uhms”, “Ahs”, and those little fillers they all tell you to avoid at Toastmasters.

This isn’t so much a review as it’s just my history with Ridley Scott’s Alien. You can find actual reviews all over the internet, and I know very few people who...
