Thirteen questions about one thing

Craig and John plug a book by their very first sponsor and discuss elective brain surgery, before tackling an exhaustive but illuminating list of questions from listener Daniel Barkeley.

And where does new media fall in all of this? Thirteen conversations about a few things, on episode sixteen of Scriptnotes.
