--! Hang on until the end for a special announcement !--

This is the first episode from a day we managed to record three episodes, but it takes us a minute to get warmed up. Please be patient, it's worth it (no, it isn't, Chris. it's only out of pity people listen to us. *sigh* Yes, Yes, I know you're exhausted, but please don't take it out on the Listener, Jeff). 

• Jeff finally gets a break, sort of
  • Except there's tons of stuff to do
  • Movies, hiking, Father's Day, prepping for the possibility of a guest appearance on Irresponsible Podcast
• Pissy Dog and Pissy Cats
• Guinea pigs are a delicacy...so are capybara (there's a "The Matrix" reference in here)

On to the "News" (it's fun watching/listening to Jeff get worked up over inconsequentials)

• Button-activated voice-activation
  • Jeff throws down a massive dare
• Line Graph Guessing Game
  • Downward "spike"
• De Hooch, Vermeer, iPhone, and misleading videos
• Migrating shipwrecks
• Ask Gwyneth Anything and get a facepalm worthy question. Jeff makes it really weird.
• Perfectly Placed Posts by @realnoahadler99 and @xBongking420x
• A swarm of cows and a swarm of Redditors
• Nearly killed by an asteroid...but not really

Thanks to the great Bocephus aka Hank Williams, Jr. for "Come and Go Blues."

Sooo…here’s the deal.

Jeff and I do this podcast thingy partly in an effort to turn it into something people enjoy and partly as an opportunity for us to hang out. Jeff does the heavy lifting for the show. He’s one of the hosts and he does the part where he tries to make this entertaining for you, the Listeneer.

Sometimes life gets in the way. Jeff’s working the 2nd shift these days, and it’s pretty intense. Lots going on. This episode is the result of us having a typical convo, but Jeff not having the time, energy, wherewithal or general joie de vie to ACTUALLY try to make it sound better… he did edit it.  A little bit. 

IT sounds… rough… 

We think you’ll enjoy it nonetheless.

Many thanks to the late and very great, Jerry Reed for his fantastic song, "Another Puff."

This is what win and subsequent victory celebration sounds like for someone with Bipolar Disorder and his friend.

I (Chris) have Bipolar Disorder. Wins, either large or small, are often hard to come by. Jeff did the absolute best thing he could for me: he made me feel normal; not by any means other than to have a conversation with me about our various landscaping projects.

Thank you, Jeff.

We're getting back into the groove. Accusations fly. Offense is taken. No apologies are offered. That's just the way we are.

Our Mission Statement: Helping the world word better.Our Catchphrase: Words mean things

• Wednesdays are not Saturdays
• Jeff's calendar head goes to H-E-Double hockey sticks in a handbasket with cascading R.U.D.s
  • Gratefully he doesn't use up the whole episode ranting about it.
• Duck Season! Rabbit Season! Duck Season! Rabbit Season! Rabbit Season! Duck Season!
• Jeff is, was, and always will be bananers - emphasis added
• Jeff rants about the BoSux and poor announcing and...
• This leads us to the headlines...
  • Tragic stories need to be treated with the gravitas they deserve
  • Jeff will have a custom-tailored I Love Me jacket whether he wants one or not.
  • The Federal and State-level EPAs suck at their jobs..."Yakety Sax!" (this actually demeans the song)
  • Car rides and fish filets
  • Peter M. Lenkov, Robert Renee, and Daniel Waters were right!
• A new bit is proposed: all of the headlines starting with "how" will now be a guessing game
  • How did she get 69 cars?
  • Because Science! Physics is all made up...intentionally!
    • Scientists vs. Journalists who think they know science
  • Chocolate sprinkles for everybody! Yea!

*** WARNING: If you have a weak stomach, this episode ain't for you. (But also...yer a yellow-bellied sapsucker if you don't listen) ***

Yeah, we know, it's been awhile. How ya doin'? We're doin' pretty good. It's been busy, but things have finally slowed down enough to give you something special...and rare. It's a ramble of reminiscences...fuzzed by time...and tequila.

Let us know if you resemble any of our remarks.

@whiskeytangop, we have a question.
