No, I haven't come out of retirement, I'm just completing the archive of old shows... There were over a dozen left to upload when we aired the final episode of Some Assembly Required in January, and I think my plan is to upload about 4 a month until the archive is complete. I just finished adding Episodes 19-22 today. You can find a full list of downloadable episodes HERE. Thanks for listening! Jon Nelson www.some-assembly-required.net
