This week revealed Matt Gelb and Ryan Lawrence to be twin quasars of beat-offery. Lawrence scored 7 solid points in his debut and Gelb has taken the lead in only his second week.

Next week, expect to see Mandy Housenick and Ryan Lawrence. And don’t forget to check the list, these folks are tweeting their asses off.
