That interaction starts with you, you see, we really want to make this content for you the listener so please, drop us an email at contact@modelgeekspodcast.com and weigh in on whatever our show topic is. You can find it at the ModelGeeks Facebook Page or our website, www.modelgeekspodcast.comIn closing, thanks to all the ModelGeeks out there, we really hope that you will download and make us a regular part of your modeling bench sessions.
