    The DepotCast 047: Inside Baseball? Inside Track? Whatever, We're Talking Merchandise!

    Mike, Mary, and a weirdly echoey Mackenzie (whoops) discuss merchandise ideas for the coming year. If you've ever wondered what goes through our heads when deciding what to sell in the gift shop, this episode is for you!

    DepotCast 046: Who Robbed These Trains?

    Mike, Mack, and Mary tell some train robbery tales today, taking us from Nebraska in 1877 to Glasgow in 1963! Also our furnace kicks on in the middle of the recording and forces Mike to finally do some editing for once.
