November 02, 2017 Office of the General Counsel Episode 21 - That Limousine Riding, Jet Flying, Kiss Stealing, Wheelin' N' Dealin' Son of a Gun

Attorney Edward A. Coleman, Esq. kicks the show off in a glum manner. He thanks the listeners for listening and recounts his abduction for sympathy. Ed bores producer Ken Lucas with the details of his illness. We cut to the Guess My Middle Name contest and announce Don Becker as the winner. Congrats Don! We will contact you shortly about your prizes. Ed reads some hate mail and then proclaims that he is so down that he didn’t schedule a guest. Ken offers to bring in a special friend to help cheer Ed up and then we hear another excerpt from Strunk & White. Ed answers another Ask An Attorney question by mega-fan David Shimomura and then we hear a word from our sponsor, Fun Laboratories. We return from our break with our special guest, Head of the Motivational and Emotional Empathy Department, John ‘Hambone’ McGuire. Hambone comes forth and whips Ed into shape with his fiery words. Ed is rejuvenated and Hambone graces us with his slogan, “Lead with your dick and follow your heart”. Ed tries to close the show and Hambone shares his 3 rules with us.
Check out Hambone with George Koroneos on their weekly podcast, Mai Tai Happy Hour.

October 12, 2017 Office of the General Counsel Episode 20 - The Man from G.R.U.N.C.L.E.

Attorney Edward A. Coleman, Esq. kicks the show off with a slightly defeated attitude. He claims he’s a bit down in the dumps but is trying to fight his way out of it. He’s still reeling from the effects of his abduction. Podcast producer Ken Lucas disproves Ed’s claims. Ken also brings up Ed’s novel. Ed chats about the conspiracy theory against him and announces his list of perpetrators that includes Unwinnable’s favorite son, Ted Goldman. Suddenly EIC Stu Horvath shows up and warns Ed to drop his investigation into Unwinnable, Inc and then we take a break. After we hear a word from our sponsor, Snazzy Seconds, we join Ed and Ken as they head through sub-basement 3 to find Ed’s informant, Gruncle. After a series of extreme questions, Ed is not sure he's received the answers he is looking for. The show ends on a blank note.

We find out that Ed fell into the Gowanus Canal and is plagued with a toxic virus. Ian stops in to hang out and imbue Ed with positive vibes. Out of nowhere, Ed accuses Ted Goldman of being the mole. Ed replies to tweets regarding the “Guess My Middle Name?” and “Ask an Attorney” segments and then we hear a word from this week’s sponsor, DAT. After the break, we are joined by our guest, Human Resources Director, Janet Jort. After an aggressive back and forth between Janet and Ed, we end the show on an inappropriate note.

Edward A. Coleman, Esq. starts the show in a speedy manner. Ed talks about his approach to hiring and announces the winner of the Lego contest.

We endure an uneasy interview that takes a left turn as Thatch speaks of his underworld experience. Thatch eventually forces Ed into some felonious activities and they disappear into the night. The show ends on a cryptic note.
