Tom and Grahm open the show discussing a recent news article explaining how the Earth is entering a new mass-extincion era, with tips on how to survive the apolcalypse. They then discuss the government shutdown, and dive into the debate on whether or not Chris Christie going to a closed beach is really such a bad thing. The guys then finish the show by reading a tweet from a listener asking what they’ve learned from podcasting over the past few years.
