Maino and the Mayor

Wow. It's a crazy Friday. The conversation starts with John claiming he was a firefighter in Negaunee, Michigan. As the story continues, we learn that he filled in, occasionally, and it sounds as though he never actually made it to a fire because he was always late. Maino also tells us about a compromising situation he got into with his "new-to-him" vehicle. Apparently the locks wouldn't work, so he tried crawling through from the hatch back on the vehicle. He got wedged in over the back seat (try to remove that picture from your mind...good luck). The Mayor retells the story about a tour guide who was hoping for appreciation in the form of tips, but instead an older gentleman stood up and gave her a round of applause. Maino nearly spits his coffee out. Somehow, brilliance happens and, without any planning, we present a round of "Judge Jim Schmitt's Court". We get John's better half, Julie, on the phone to get her side of the story of the "Non-Working Kia Locks". The "Judge" sides with Julie Maino...pretty sure we all do.

The meanderings begin with talk about Labor Day weekend. Memories of going back to school and watching the Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon. Mayor Jim admits he and his college buddies used to call late in the night and pledge to the cause. He also admitted they never followed through with the pledges. (Shame, Mayor. SHAME). Packer talk, Caitlin Clark, Roger Goodell, and yes, there is talk of linens. We also find out that Jim doesn't dye his hair. (cough cough). Rats, bats and Michael Jackson are also part of the conversation.
