Podcast 327: Nak Nak, Who's There?

She looked the bike up and down, spun her magic wand and muttered the secret phrase "Potato-potato-potato". And voila! Suddenly the bike was running perfect. All traces of it's engine problems were gone. The boy rode off into the sunset and all was good again in the land of merry Misfits.
