    We thought it was a good idea to make a podcast, we could've been wrong. We are Zach, Conor, Don, Mark, Ian and Jackie and we are four friends with a mission, to make a dumb podcast. Come hang with us as you listen to conversations we'd have even if we weren't recording. Filled with topics that span from Movies to Music and of course Notes With Conor, which is sure to make you go "what". Hopefully you'll laugh at our intentional and sometimes unintentional comedy and if not, well you're probably smarter than us.
