There's irony in doing a show on disclosure of retouching in ads, and then needing to retouch the show.* Technical difficulties plagued us, but amazingly you won't even notice, such is my skill with sound editing tools. Except, of course that part where Steve disappears from the show entirely and I couldn't reconnect him. But we were almost at the end anyway. So that doesn't count.

All in all, though, this is definitely one of the better programs. Lots of engaged discussion on some fun topics. Hope you all enjoy it.

And yes, I still want you to add me to your Twitter profile for all the latest BeanCast news, as well as my random witticisms. I'm TheBeanCast. As always, thanks for listening and please add a positive review to iTunes if you like the show.
