Damage Control Mode

Ian and Cory look to Mark Vandroff and Sal Mercogliano to tell them how to save a sinking ship! The Joint Geeks cover damage control in the air, on land, on orbit, and at sea--what makes it necessary, how to do it, and how to make sure it’s done with as little effort as possible. Buckle up, because this one is all about when things get bumpy! Also in this episode, Cory talks about his life choices, Mark goes into orbit, Sal tells us what happens when smoke gets in your eyes, and Ian celebrates an old friend’s success… We’ll be going on a 6-week hiatus after this, so end us a note in the Discord about what you’d like to see us cover when we get back!
