Finally, the second part and  finale to Susan and Mo's podcast on dining out. Lots of memories, opinions and laughs. Lots of hunger to go around.
Everything changes and that includes restaurant dining. Since Mo and his wife are older than most people  alive today, they thought it might be fun to discuss how it used to be back in the olden days. They love to reminisce, and some of their memories may match your own. Mo is a typical male and has been known to eat food directly out of a can without utensils, so his point of view may differ than that of Susan's, but that makes it all the more interesting on an anthropological level. Susan is human. Dining out used to be an event. It also used to be an adventure.This is part 1 of a longer conversation.
Mo and Wife of Mo, Susan, talk about the Halloweens of their youth and how they've celebrated. It was a fun, unscripted conversation.
Mo talks about his new shopping habits and a bag of coffee flavored cereal. He also talks about toilet paper and other odd things. 
How a silly thing in the summer of 1976  became one of the most important aspects of my life's philosophy. Sometimes the little things make the biggest impact. 
A rambling talk about being a nerd in the past, as well as in the present. It was great being a nerd, even thought I had no idea I was one. Are you a nerd? 
I love coffee, and I do believe it loves me. It has been a constant in my life and in my family. I've even, well, I'll let you discover how weird I can be. Pull up a cup and have a sip an listen.
This episode deals with tales of being a big kid, how I got that way, and the affects it had on me, more or less. No sad stories here. It was just who I was and I yam what I yam. 
Some tales of Mo's experiences with doctors, good and bad. Oh, the indignities of being uninsured!
Calling the balls and strikes isn't as easy as I thought it would be, but it was a lot of fun. Also, the most memorable young umpire I met. It's a lot like life, in that we have to call them as we see them, regardless of the mob with torches and pitchforks. 
I have a plan to reduce the amount of violence on Television and in the Movies by utilizing a sound made by the great Shemp Howard of 3 Stooges fame. This could really work, but people are way to sane to give it a try. I, on the other hand, make no such claim.
What's with suits? Why do we wear them? The pockets are great, but what the heck! I don't like suits. They creep me out. Suits are weird.
Mo waxes on, and off, about the biggest phenomenon of the current entertainment cycle and how he's never, ever seen a single episode. How can this be? He'll explain why he doesn't feel he's missed a thing. Maybe he has, but he doesn't think so.
Mo discusses some views on time and a little about watches.
All about being a Yo-yo Pro in the 80s and 90s. How and why it came to be, and why it all ended. We all have a journey and this was a major part of Mo's. The episode ends with the song, "Mighty Mo the Yo-yo Pro," written about him by friend, writer and performer, Barry Ebert. The song alone is worth listening to Mo ramble.
In a world that seems to be plagued with unkind acts, every one of us has the tool to counteract that darkness. Kindness is the key. In this episode, Mo discusses the benefits of kindness, the reason it's so positive and how to achieve it as often as possible. With kindness, you simply must have a more relaxed life. 
This episode is an odd journey down memory lane, a lane filled with inebriated Mardi Gras revelers in New Orleans, Louisiana. In 1977, SNL decided to broadcast live from Mardi Gras. Mo was there and, well, the rest is history, kind of. 
I was once a Hippie type Freak. My Hair was immense but it was just who I was. As it turned out, letting my hair grow wasn't a statement, it was letting my inner Freak out. We all have a freak (so to speak) inside of us that wants to materialize. Although there may not be a real guide to that here, you may get some ideas of your own. Be yourself! Be happy!
This story is a true one. Mo was a Tarot Snob for a long time, and discovered that such attitudes stifled his creativity and made him stupid. Luckily, he realized his bone-headed ways and made a change, thus this podcast. Otherwise, he'd still be steeped in self-importance.
Love? Love!

Love? Love!

This episode is a general ramble about Mo's thoughts on romantic love. Although romantic love isn't always easy, okay, never easy, it's still pretty darn wonderful and worth believing in. What is this strange power? Who knows, but it sure is fun.
