Did you know CommanderCast has a sort of brother pocast, Off-Color Cast? Well, after this episode, you should have an idea of exactly what that our friends over at OCC are like. When I say Off-Color is like CommanderCast's brother, I mean it's your younger brother who spent some time in jail, was 'around' for a few years and came back to town asking you for money. But he's still awesome.
