Episode 172: Classic Colonial Christmas

Hi, friends!

I'm a bit pressed for time, so no big show notes post today. Check out The Total Bettys and get their new album, and stick around to hear The Captain! (Or just skip to him, whatever you prefer because I live in MURICA.) Woooo!

Click here to download the episode!


Pat rambles on vacation days (4:29), album progress (5:26), fun gift giving (8:46), Life is Strange (11:40), and Christmas in the city (13:42). Plus New Year's Eve plans (18:40), a song from The Total Bettys (21:32), sports stuff (26:00), and a visit from The Captain (33:01)!

Crap open a cold one!

We Need to Talk: Ugly Sweaters

Hi there, friends.

I hope you are well, and that no one "accidentally" took your lunch from the refrigerator (but be real - you didn't want that tuna sandwich anyway). I have more retail posts planned, and maybe a #fatguy post about cheeseburgers coming soon, but today I need to call out some people for their fashion choices. I don't know how this happened, but we're in it now: the ugly sweater craze has been tainted and I think it may be permanent.

Show notes - Episode 165: We'll Get to Wallachia

Sunday Special: VISTA

Morning, friends!

Today I present a special sit-down (unless they were standing while using their fancy gadgets) with friends of the show, VISTA!

Full disclosure: I haven't done a written interview in nearly a decade, so I was a bit nervous about how this would all go down. But it was at least way less terrifying than speaking to them, and at best wonderfully fun and informative. So pause Big Mouth and do it up - also you can click the song covers to download each tune!

Every so often, I don't get to mention everything that goes into the show notes. Instead of putting it all off for a week, rendering it obsolete, I have decided to write it here on Sunday mornings.

Plus this means I get to use this sweet concept logo for the photo until I come up with a better one (and the "I" in this case is obviously my good pal, Tim Donnelly). Anywho, let's do stuff!

That Other Time I Forgot to Do Show Notes

Hi, pals!

Right off the bat, that title is misleading: I did not forget to do show notes for the last two shows. I just didn't have the time and/or the foresight. Also, I just ate a pint of ice cream and am about to watch Last Man Standing, so this won't even be a "full" post. What I will do is share the links to the two vacation shows (that makes them sound fun, right?) and to this week's episode. I hope you're having fun doing your stuff! Woooo cinnamon buns!

Today I invite you to join me on our final(?) walk down Unsigned Credit Card Lane and pay a visit to a woman who took our protect-you-from-fraud policy to a different level.
