Month: November 2018

Starting season 2 we have the largest panel so far, nine plus two call-ins. With this many voices things go off the rails early which makes for another interesting episode where we completely miss the local spotlight. Nick the Nasty brings us a nice surprise for the Hidden Herf, the Reverend Harvey runs through the Current Events, and Mustang Mike covers the Conspiracy Corner. We have a guest Hack from the motor city; Comedy Chris’ son Detroit Steve. Nurse Rick calls in Skippy from The Retrohale and JoJo Mo during the second half.  Corespondent Mike gets fired (again), Dommie the Dominator keeps us warm, ventilated and tends bar mixing Podcast Juice, while Cigar Hack Dave tries to herd all these cats.
