Lots of great things going on for Tmmy and the boys do a very fun top 5 list of their favorite Minnesota born celebrities

Mark rolls solo this week because as he eludes to in the intro, this is a very busy time of year for him and with no guests booked for the next couple weeks and crunch time for his job putting on beer fests, he is gonna take a few weeks off and come back fresh and ready to rock and roll in June! Top 5 list are some of the podcasts that he listens to so that you can fill the void of potentially no Manners Optional Podcast for a few weeks

Matt from Eden Prairie is back by popular demand after the Tales from the Forks ep last month. Instead of tales from days in high school up in Grand Forks, the boys preview a busy weekend of Garth Brooks, Kentucky Derby, and recapping what is arguably the best day of their lives back in July of 2000 at the Warped Tour. They do a Top 5 list of their best gambling wins and of course a little nonsense ensues as a result.

Mark has a phone call with a dear friend we will call Jason from Michigan. Jason has had a series of unfortunate dating stories and he shares a recent one involving being catfished! Best part is Mark was actually out there visiting the weekend that happened. A few more funny stories make for a pretty hilarious and offensive episode with one of the best characters of all time!

Mark is joined by Tyler Schoening to talk about electric drum covers! And a whole lot more, but that is how Mark found Tyler by searching for some music on youtube and up popped one of Tylers videos and they chat all about that world, Tylers previous bands and experiences and whole lot more. They do a Top 5 list of their favorite early 2000's pop punk songs and boy do they! Lots of laughs are had and Tyler will definitely be back on the pod in the near future so send in any questions or comments to INSTA - @mannersoptionalpodcast TWITTER - @mannersoptional

Kyle from St Louis Park drops by for his annual appearance on the Masters Preview. The boys recap the WGC Match Play tournament from last weekend, preview the new 3M Open coming to MN, and of course preview the Masters and give their picks. They do a Top 5 list of places they would buy a house if they won the lottery after a call in from last weeks guest Matt from Eden Prairie with the list recommendation.

In this absolutely ridiculous episode everyone's favorite, Matt from Eden Prairie and Mark have a chat about some of the highlights and happenings from their days back in high school! Mark has let a few of them out recently and listeners wanted to hear a whole episode of them.
