Dave and Mike shake down a couple of libations, with each straying a bit from their norms. Then it's off to the mailbag to see what the listeners have had to say since Episode 9. Listener mail has a new added feature staring with Episode 10. In addition to their general commentary, listeners are asked to consider a specific question.
