I started many things in middle age: guitar, piano, Italian, PARENTING, even farming (I still don't think I'm ready for goats, Lydia)…and what I realized is that it’s never

Chris and Mike record an episode on their phones in a hotel room in Austin, TX! Clearly, the walls were a bit thin, as you can occasionally hear people walking by in the hallway.
