Today Michael is running alone! Yes! He’s solo and without anyone to tell him what to do! So what does he do…well, samples Founder French Toast Bastard and talks about VonStiehl wineries in Algoma, Wisconsin, and then tells about “Before I Kill You, Mr. Spy” the card game from Cheapass Games, founded by James Ernest! (great game company BTW.)
