A Fireside Chat

This week, I begin the show by recapping my overly stressful and irritating week and take many detours and left turns along the way.

From there, listeners weigh in on this weeks homework assignment which causes me to nerd out over the brilliance of Bruce Springsteen and a listener and I agree that we just don't get the hype surrounding Jon Wick.

Then we debut a new segment that will sure to be a hit where I read you my favorite ads from Backpage. I expect this to be a reoccurring segment, so please tell me what you think.

Homework Assignment for the coming weeks: Is there a band that you like and appreciate now but avoided for whatever reason a child/teenager.

All of the the songs from our music episodes can be found on Spotify in a playlist titled A Fireside Soundtrack. If you can't find it or need the link, shoot me a line and I will gladly send it to you.

Back after a short break, and ready to say words!

This week, a pizza delivery guy almost ruins my evening, I relive the dark days of having to learn about sex before the internet, and I try to understand why Bud Light is upsetting so many people.

Then we wrap up with a website recommendation from a listener that makes me rethink ever using a public restroom, but for a very different reason than you may think.

All this and probably much more!

As I try to get myself out of a deep funk this week, I ponder the meaning of a common phrase, compare Star Wars to a failing relationship and tell you some new shows I've been watching lately.

This week is all about Cereal...well mostly.

First we open the mailbag to some feedback from listeners which leads me to tell a story about a very scary situation that recently happened to me.

Then AFC nation breaks down more of their favorite cereals including the odd eating habits of one listener's family member and a breakdown of adult cereals vs. childhood cereals.

All this and much much more.

No official homework assignment this week, so it's open lines for the next few weeks. Let me know what you want to talk about. What's on your mind!

This is a "lost episode" that I recorded about two years ago but never released. Some of the stuff I talk about in the beginning may sound a little dated and that's why.

Basically, this is a story of a date I went on in the year 2020 right in the middle of Covid. I harbor no ill will towards the person in the story but we just were not a good romantic connection and I think once you listen to the episode, you will understand why.

We will resume our previously scheduled Cereal talk and other shenanigans next week.

Homework assignment: Tell me your top three favorite cereals and why. And tell me your top three least favorite cereals and why.

This week, I find out I've been unfriended and I don't take it well, I learn when the 1900s were and I debate the pros and cons of loud or silent farts.

Then we turn the show over to the listeners as three very different and very profound responses to the homework assignment explain what the words Happy Ever After mean to some of AFC nation.

Thank you to everyone who listens and especially everyone who took the time to submit a response.

Next week...More cereal talk.

Homework assignment continued for next week: What does happy ever after mean to you? What did you want to be when you grew up compared to how your life turned out? For better or worse did things in your life turn out as you expected? Tell me as little or as much as you like!

Well, this week goes off the rails pretty quickly...just warning you.

This week we open with some movies I've seen recently and my thoughts on them. Then I watch yet another disgusting internet video requested by a listener and I tell you a story about a late night encounter that hurt my face.

Then I discuss two very interesting characters I work with and try to dissect their behavior and we wrap up with some talk about people's favorite cereals which leads me down a rabbit hole of a brand of cereal that is too insane to be true but yet somehow is.

All this and much much more

This week we start with a quick update on my health from last week and then do another round of WYR which leads me to revisit an old internet sensation that makes me almost vomit live on air.

Then I tell you about an encounter with a Dollar Tree employee who is at the end of her rope, a listener vents their frustration over trying to attain their goals and we wrap up with a story about a recent AFC character who hopefully has exited my life for good.

All this and much, much more.
