Christmas and New Years have passed us by but dammit we're going to publish this Christmas Episode if it kills us! In Episode 34 we talk about our Christmas wishes for comicdom, our geek pressies and many other seasonal things featuring feedback from WFTT forum regulars Gland, Vertigo1 and Mrcola.

Note: For this episode we're trying some noise reduction tech in Audacity. We're interested to hear feedback on how you feel about it. One thing we've already noticed is that Ang is a lot quieter than me in this recording, we'll keep an eye on that.
