Just The Essentials

The crew is BACK with Columbus own Freddie Simone! This is a fun one, and guess what - JEFF IS HERE! We are doing it pals.

The great Chris Alan came by to drop some serious knowledge on the JTE crew, so naturally Jeff decided to not show up and keep his "day job" or whatever so we also have on the very enthusiastic Chris Toyloy! Crazy! Don't miss a moment!

And we are back, still no Jeff so we are presuming that he is either incarcerated for his crimes or asleep on his floor, but no worries because we have a guest and he is Stephen Sponhour ladies and gents! Does anyone even read these? Doubtful, but I almost put effort into them so it is well deserved. Thanks!
