Show Notes
Pablo Torre saved the day of Family Feud in in incredible fashion and our show still isn't over it. However, in typical Greg Cote fashion, he is simply not impressed and thinks his answer would have been better. Is there such thing as a 50-cent piece? That leads us to discuss how what Feud answers would be like if 100 Greg Cotes were surveyed. Plus, Stugotz has questions about the Feud in general. Then, David Samson joins the show to discuss the new Aaron Hernandez show written by Domonique Foxworth, Shedeur Sanders as a celebrity in Boulder and Tennessee's new ticket pricing fiasco.
