Send us Fan Mail
It's here! 200 episodes of this dumb show.

This week, it's all about stories from the dumpster fire that is Florida! In the second version of this show (check out episode #66 for the first part), we're covering the stories of Linda Ducharme, Linda Keath, Jayson Laughman, Kenneth Haskins, and Christian Radecki.
