October 27, 2020Escape Room, Part I
Jon, George, and Mo thought it would be a great idea to bring their unpaid intern (and Mo’s daughter) Rachel with them to experience a brand new type of escape room. They didn’t realize that this was part of something much bigger, and more dangerous, than they could ever have imagined. Their only way out was through — and not all of them will escape.

October 01, 2020Just Say No
In the late ’80s & early ’90s, Nancy Reagan’s “Just Say No” campaign strove to keep our nation’s youth from illicit drug use. The approach and effectiveness of the program is often debated, but there’s no debate that it was front-and-center if you grew up as a GenX’er in the U.S.. So in this episode we explore the history, effects, and legacy of “Just Say No.”
