Good show guys. I was a little worried that we would never get that (admittedly beautiful) picture of Egypt’s wonderland off the web page. I liked the interview feeling you guys had going. Discussion’s between the anchors really worked well! keep that one up. It actually sounded very professional, and it didn’t bother me that we had to take Wren’s word for it for a while. Enjoyed the Syria piece, but if your going to take yourself out of the interview to that level, I would have liked a little bit more of an introduction. Just a bit more of Rueben up top. You set up asking a direct question that was then answered, but that pattern wasn’t quite continued as you went.
All and all, it sounded great.
Cheers
I miss you all,

P.S. can you get that opening floater to not blip in like that, or is it a lost cause?
