Hype Videos are raining from the sky! (It must have been because of that one 5 star review that liked one :D. How could we stop after that encouragement?)

Would you believe it? We've elevated our Instagram to something we actually use!!! Check it out for updates on our latest podcast and some silly screenshots (maybe sorta sometimes at least). We might even use it for other purposes too. How cool is that?

If you have a question or just want to talk some smack about how poorly we did this week you can hit us up on our email:

tyrannyofthumbs@gmail.com

Also, I'm contractually obligated to mention we "technically" have a Twitter... But we don't use it... yet!

Oh! And IF YOU LIKED THE SHOW BUT UNDER NO OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES feel free to drop us a 5 star rating on iTunes (or wherever your local podcasts are sold)
