The boys hit the airwaves with one of their favorites, Jan Andersson, President of MrPEX. It doesn't take long to get right to the important stuff, how many people mistake him as Metallica's lead singer James Hetfield. Yes, Jan is definitely his doppelganger. Music, Minnesota, Molecular Musings with MrPEX and maybe even a little Rock Camp for Dad discussion are the focus of this week's NDY Podcast.
