Death leaves a

Sometimes You Have to Get Ugly to Be Pretty
Nothing
like a fresh episode of the INTERCOT Insider Podcast to put some holiday
cheer on your face. Unfortunately, this isn't our holiday episode (that's
#45 coming soon) and we were REALLY CRANKY for this one. Like - had some bad
egg nog cranky. Anyway, we discuss twinkle lights, swatch, bathrooms,
cupcakes, customer service, the birthplace of aviation and oh - some Disney
stuff. Grab your favorite beverage and enjoy the splendor of the wildest
ride on the podcast circuit!
