    Listener Questions, Part 1

    What happens when you combine four geeks, liters of alcohol and questions from the listening audience? A giant mess, pretty much. But not one of those horrible messes that you have to wait until the next morning to clean up; one of those okay giant messes that just looks people had a good time and, oh look, there's Ricky's shirt. We thought he lost it. THAT kind of big mess. So, if you wanna get a little messy, join X and his guest panel of guests (Mike Maryman, Corey Graham and Mark Scofield) as they answer real questions sent in by their listeners and drink real large quantities of booze. It's the six point something or other.
