The boys go car shopping. An old friend returns. One of us (I won’t say who) conflates nineteenth-century treasure hunters with twenty first-century social scientists. And when I said “friend” earlier, I meant a van. Vans can be friends, right? ‘Course they can.

 

Episode ingredients: Count Salesula’s Car Castle, 2004 Nokia Parkour Tablet, introducing Next Week Tonight, Jerry Hot Dog, Archaeol-argument, and Meat Stripe Gum

So here's the thing... an old "friend" showed up and kinda stole the majority of an episode from one of our computers. Rather than force you to listen to 2/3 of a conversation, we decide to force you to listen to us scraping the bottom of our inbox.....barrel?

You there! Unless I’m very much mistaken, you seem like the sort of individual that enjoys listening to people get pissed off at fake scientists for reading poorly written internet quizzes. Well what say you? Is that sort of thing you bag, baby?

The regular-type Fixers weren't able to put in any time at the office this week, so Ben thawed out one of the interns from cryogenic freeze and together they solved the great mystery of where meat goes when something dies.

Honestly folks, we have so many good ideas in this episode that it’s kinda ridiculous. Like, we almost didn’t publish it because we don’t want anyone stealing our several brilliant ideas. Y’know what, just assume all this is trademarked, alright? Because it absolutely is!

We've got a bonus episode for you, just in time to be too late for the holidays!! I wish I could show you how much silence I have to edit out to make us sound clever. So much!

Hey listen, you might wanna have a box of Grape-Nuts on hand for this one. You know… to quell any urges. Because it gets pretty wet and wild, as only Gumby discussions tend to do.
