Always fun when I get Jacob to pronounce paleontology terms
I have been to Oatman. nice little town. the donkeys are cool. Kingman has a beautiful downtown area. I enjoyed walking around there and seeing the history.
the scoop group community on Facebook is a good group as long as you agree with everything they say. if any of your ideas are opposite of theirs then you will be tarred and feathered
The answer is "milk leg"
My favorite podcast. Listening to these guys is like having three friends in your ear holes. I've been an avid listener for years now. We're not a cult.
I have been a fan since episode one and I love these guys and what they produce. once you join the scoop group there is no turning back. it's not a cult but it's kind of like a cult lol
why do you guys hate taco Bell so much? it's delicious and doesn't do anything to normal people's intestines.
How can you guys not have the balls to just write the word fuck?
One of the best episodes to date they had me laughing out loud a lot of the show
feral child is turning into a dalek
Best podcast ever!!! I try to listen as soon as it's released!!
Huge Q fan!! What a cool dude.
Podcast is fantastic. Jacob is probably the best one on it. Seating sucked though, 2 stars.
