Description

Each week on Bananas, Kurt Braunohler and Scotty Landes discuss the strange, fascinating and just plain bananas news from around the world. The headlines and weird news are lighthearted, unexpected and always fun. Like the time the delivery robot ran through a crime scene or the lady who took in a stray cat only to find out it was a mountain lion. Or the time Kurt and Scotty drove a butt across the country.

I had to learn to leave my wife alone when she gets home from her critical care night shifts as a nurse. She just needs quiet alone time.

Hungry and poor people deserve candy and frivolous things occasionally, too. It irritates me when people suggest that because someone doesn’t have food that means they can’t have something nice if it’s available.

My Mom was a visiting chaplain for a long time for a woman and when she died she left the bird to my Mom. My Mom is afraid of birds….but learned to take care of it. So, basically thrown at her?
