Florida is Sinking...

We survived Hurricane Matthew! Very minimal damage to both Brent & Jeremy’s respective homes, thank God. BUT, the hurricane did delay the release of this episode. For that we are sorry, and we hope you enjoy the second part of our chat with our friend Sara.

Brent’s longtime pal Sara joined the guys at the Sinkhole to blab on about the latest wacky headlines from Florida. As always, they immediately got off course and ended up discussing things like King Arthur’s correct choice of table shapes, the many pronunciations of Sacagawea, the fluctuating #DangerIndex, and why Sara wasn’t allowed to watch the Smurfs as a kid. Welp, enjoy… Or don’t.

Brent & Jeremy are back together for the first time in over a month to discuss the state of Florida’s impact on the 2016 Rio Olympic Games. There were a lot of medalists who returned home to the Sunshine State, and one particular Floridian who made alllllll the headlines.

Brent went to Alaska so Jeremy recorded a podcast without him…

It was Brent’s turn to have all the fun this week as he toured Kennedy Space Center as a participant in a NASA Social event. It was the first time he’d been to KSC since his 5th grade field trip, this time to witness the launching of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon capsule as it delivers a payload of supplies, science experiments, and equipment to the International Space Station.

Launch Pad 39A, where 47 years ago Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and that other guy nobody remembers, took off for the moon.

While Brent was in Iowa, Jeremy went to the Vans Warped Tour as it passed through Florida, where he and his sister-in-law, Brooke, sat down with The Heirs, Aaron and Johnny from Reel Big Fish, and JR from Less Than Jake. Also, I’m Sean Dunne stopped by to talk about the latest wacky Florida news.
