Chris Glass Wants Your Gratuity

On Today's special live edition of the show I welcome fellow Cincinnatian Chris Glass [http://chrisglass.com/]. When Chris isn't busy making various goods from fire and wine [http://wireandtwine.com/], you might find his beard performing magic or attempting to find the perfectly fitting bathrobe. ‍ In his spare time Chris is a high security designineer for The President and the gatekeeper to Aaron Draplin. Chris is tall, carries a camera so that he doesn't have to talk to you, and enjoys farming. ‍ Today's episode is not sponsored by seasons or billboards. ‍ A special thanks to Aaron Dowd for helping with the audio (albeit, I provided him terrible quality audio)
