We trade college stories and current-life updates with Scott’s old roommate Bones, then veer into what arbitration really is and why it feels nothing like TV courtroom drama. The conversation zigzags through 1970s music, knees that will not cooperate, California’s complicated history, whale spouts in Bodega Bay, and a limo job that ends with a rock star reveal. 
• turning a busted Pinto armrest into framed “art” and what people project onto it 
• what an arbitrator does and why “private judge” is the simplest definition 
• why arbitration rarely produces funny stories and the one oath moment that lands 
• a college job selling “half a cow” and the slogan that still kills 
• testing 1970s song lyrics knowledge and arguing about deep cuts 
• a Whidbey Island weekend with matcha French toast and brunch nostalgia 
• knee injury mysteries, torn meniscus talk, and getting back to running 
• plant breeding history, diversity, and uncomfortable ties to eugenics in California 
• whales spouting in Bodega Bay and the fine art of prattling 
• a “Joe Garcia” limo pickup that turns into a Steve Perry story 
You need an arbitrator, give Bones a call.
