So grateful that they are back!

I discovered Jason during the Binge Mode Star Wars. He and Mal helped me discover some really interesting stories that have changed my life. The direction he has taken X-Ray Vision with Rosie and guests has pushed me to discover even more incredible stories, and I will always be grateful for that. I’m so glad they are back and can’t wait to see where they will go from here. Thank you Jason and Rosie.
