Go see this movie when it comes out on April 13th!

We also cover…
You’ve probably heard Jason and me mention on the podcast that we are both ‘cable free’, meaning neither of us pay for cable to be delivered into our homes. I made the decision about 5 months ago when we moved as I was tired of paying nearly $100/month for channels that we hardly watched. Many…
