I sent two to Eric and they will be here soon. Consequently, I didnt have this one produced which is a great advertisement  for when the episodes are produced by my friends  at Red House Productions. You will hear a big difference for the production quality if other episodes. but this one was really fun and spinning in my head. I remeber hearing HR Rescue with Jenni Stone which was a fantastyic micro learning podcast about human resources. I love how she tooksomething quickly and presents it to everyone.  Plus, I am curious to know what everyone thinks. Did you like this short one, what if I did more like this?
