October 9th, 2004 was when this show was launched, and while the 17th anniversary is a big thing. The bigger news is that I do not have Melanoma Cancer. I go into great detail about what I was told, what happens next, and of course some warnings to all of you. In addition some changes to the sponsorship offer by GoDaddy as well.

Hi everyone, Kirk here filling in for Todd while he is away on travel for this episode and this upcoming Thursday’s episode. Wow, 2021 has not been a good year for Facebook, an employee from Facebook speaks out and puts them on blast then less than 24 hours later, Facebook and Instagram are down. Coincidence on the two? Hmm, who knows?

Apple has banned Fortnite from the App store until the conclusion of the legal battle which can take as much as 5 more years. Apple playing there hand in destroying a business that dared to questions its policies. I hope Epic is prepared and can ultimately survive these actions.
