0:00.0	What's up, everybody, and welcome back to Gear 30 on the Blister Podcast Network.
0:10.9	I'm Jonathan Ellsworth, and you can check out everything we're doing and reviewing over at
0:16.5	blisterreview.com.
0:19.3	Well, today we've got a really fun episode for you. And really, this is just a total

0:37.1	pretty obvious that Cody was sad that he missed
0:40.9	last months reviewing the news episode and we replaced him with Jason Blevins and Chris

1:40.2	Talk about, I don't know, pretty much everything.

1:54.1	Willies features a robust junior buyback program, including a hard-to-believe free gear program for kids five years of age and
