Happy Thursday Geoffs! This week Spencer is getting all kindsa romantic with necromancy! But first, Madison is giving us the touching story behind the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. We’ve got an obituary for a gal who we are happy not to know, one we wish we did and one that had us cracking up. Oh and don’t worry, we didn’t forget, we’ve also got some DUMB.ASS.CRIMINALLLLLLS!
