Special guest Kirk Nelson (@ArcatechOEM) joins Michael M and Andy to discuss Poken, Rapleaf and sharing identities. Everything gets recorded out of order. Andy stays up late fixing a bunch of audio capture problems. The resulting masterwork can only fairly be described as… the Frankenstein Episode!
