Checked in with the Paid Programming crew last week as they film for the follow up to Tuesday's Child. Looking like the above photo is the perfect analogy to their upcoming footage. It's going to be heavy.

Another check in with Gabe Ferguson, Parker Szumowski, Curtis Ciszek, Mason Lemery, Sam Taxwood, and Nik Baden. They got something in the works for this fall...
