I told you all I had questions that needed answers! Today we're joined by Dr. Asao Inoue, whose blog posts we reviewed last episode. I really hope you allow yourself to meet these grading questions with an open mind. You have nothing to lose from considering it with us for 55 minutes!

If you want to read Asao's blog posts on the history of grading in America and on his labor-based grading contracts, find the first here and simply follow the arrows for the 4 subsequent posts.
