SOMEbody once told me the world is able to submit their favorite questions or questions they may have for the podcast to [email protected], anonymously at bit.ly/askhanandmatt, or to [email protected] for a Han-only written answer on hanandmattknowitall.com. What a concept! We could all use a little advice.
