Topics also include voicemails, the Left Behind series, Dr. Pepper, getting sick in Georgia, a special delivery story, Jared working as a security guard, and for some reason this is seeming like a Willy Wonka podcast now.

This weeks blockbuster episode has it all! Voicemails! Sponsored content! Guilty pleasures! And The Squids are joined by Nathan Shumaker from Everdown, On Fire, & The Burning Paris. Discussions also include getting out of class creatively, proofreading mistakes, 8 tracks, recording Everdown's albums, the CCM Museum, and an unexpected trip to the Carman Corner.
