11. Book Code

In this episode, we talk about book code with Dan and Emily End. Book Code, this first actual code featured on this podcast, is able to be used with many keys, making more secure than many other codes and ciphers, but the cipher version is still safer. We also learn more about a controversial mystery, meet new recruits - including one who loves flubs. Report them to me! - and hear the first Steve's Tips!
