Cape Town Community Podcast: Ep. 025 “What’s Another Word for Hammer-Wielding?”
Originally published on July 10, 2011.
Twenty Five episodes! Wow! It took us 25 weeks to get here but we did it! This week was a huge week for both publishers and there was a lot of good reads—but not everything. Don and Jerry are happy that the Big Two publishers are putting out splashy, fun blockbusters this summer.
