"Time Crisis, reunited once again. On today's episode we talk about cold brew - what is it? Does it taste sour? We'll talk to the experts. Jake and I also talk about Jason Alexander a.k.a. George Costanza's star turn as Colonel Sanders in the new KFC ad. All this, plus we count down the hits of 2018 and 1999. This is a very cold brew episode of Time Crisis."
