This creepy son of a bitch is one for the books and Shep does not disappoint! We should give you a heads up that we spent a LOT longer talking shit in the beginning of this episode. We normally jump into the topic about 10-15 minutes in, but this time we went a full 25 or so minutes yapping about self administered covid tests and a wannabe batman. With that being said, go ahead and hit play, get pumped and ENJOY!
