Does the truth ever come out?? Along the way, we find out that no town should attach the word "Vegas" to their name, and expect us to believe it, that daytime talk shows may not be the best alternative to marriage counseling, and that you can only blame so much on others, before you start to look ridiculous!!

Maybe this was an angry man, taking his revenge. Or, was it that love triangle??

Jimmie is correct. Doc Holliday's full legal name is John Henry Holliday. And for the record, Val Kilmer's portrayal of Doc Holliday in Tombstone is the best character in the film and one of the best on screen supporting actor performances of all time. Period.
no wonder it's an express story. the middle of the story is completely cut out
please stop mansplaining
love you guys.
Cap'n Crunch was created in 1963 by a team at Quaker Oats, with the flavor developed by Pamela Low (inspired by a brown sugar/butter recipe) and the character designed by animator Jay Ward. The product, featuring a unique, long-lasting crunch, was developed under the direction of Quaker executive Bob Reinhart. Key contributors to the creation of Cap'n Crunch include: Pamela Low: A flavorist at Arthur D. Little, she created the signature brown sugar and butter flavor coating. Jay Ward: The animat
I'd love to hear you guys do a free PSA on domestic violence and/or mental health awareness once or twice per show. I mean you don't laugh at the victims but you do profit off of the victims, so why not give back a little in a way we can all feel good about? I've listened for years, bought merch and live show tickets. I'm kind of an investor in your product and it would just be nice to hear is all. Thanks.
Such a silly phrase. 'It's the quiet ones you gotta watch'. Meanwhile the guy sitting right next to you is repeatedly slamming a machete on the bar screaming 'IM GONNA KILL THE NEXT MOTHERFUCKER THAT COMES THROUGH THE DOOR'!!! Who are YOU gonna watch?
so she's just an idiot 😐
Suicidal ideation can include an internal voice urging self-harm. During a nervous breakdown in ’25, that voice—my own—kept telling me to end my life. I imagined the taste of a gun barrel and couldn’t shake a metallic taste afterward, even though I don’t own a gun. That fear made me wake my wife and go to the hospital. I still don’t understand why the ER doctor in this story didn’t know to do this himself? Premeditated? 🤔

I lived in Waterford for 4 years in the late 80s sadly I went to HS there as my dad was a retired military government employee , it was the most snotty clickie place I've ever lived , the people were also pretty racist and the area is super segregated there were like 10 black kids in the whole school but 5 miles in the next town over New London was where the black kids went , I had never seen anything like it in my life.
We went and saw an early release of the primate movie. I give it top 9 out if 10. We were on the edge of your seat. My sister hide her face a few times which makes me giggle.
River scallop = otter balls.
that's actually how ive always skinned and fileted catfish. Spike them into a tree and filet them while theyre still barking
I love how Jimmie and James think there aren't any places as cold as the eastern US in the west because they picture the whole western US as equivalent to their experience in Phoenix.
