Have you been wondering when we might get to watch Alan make a fool of himself by wearing a headset and exploring the virtual world that he has been living in recently? Yeah, me too.

Well, for all of those who were really excited to hear Brian on his own last week…I am sorry, but Alan is back. But, let’s just say…he totally made up for his absence with his BiTs in this episode.

Summer is here, and the time is right….to talk about A/C!

So, listen/watch to learn about some potentially more efficient options for not only cooling down your home this summer…but controlling your cooling system.
