On AJ's most subdued episode ever, he rejoins Chris after getting over a highly contagious virus that kept him away from the podcast last week. Chris is at the helm of this episode, as they hit on the iPhone X being X'd out? Local eats and drinks in Bellingham to help getover the last hump of winter, and bringing back Unscripted Insights to get to know a little more about Chris and AJ.
