    Just wanted to say you guys are doing a great job! I've had an interest in micro biology for awhile and this has done nothing but fueled my curiosity. I'm only on episode 11 but i'm listing to them all as I drive across country I hope that i'm caught up in time for episode 100 :D. I'll be starting microbiology as an undergrad soon and I'm looking forward to understanding more of what you guys talk about each week. Keep up the great work!

    I am slowly but surely “catching up” on all my twivs. This one was GREAT. All the information about the hiv vaccine was very enlightening, and I am fascinated. Has the trial that Dr. Hammer mentions in here started yet (the one that was recruiting circumsized, not-immune-to-adenovirus MSMs)? Thanks for a wonderful episode (which is saying something, because I love them all, even Alan's hokey puns).
