WE LOVE OUR LISTENERS!
Thanks to a listener named Karen (EXcellent name...) we bring you today's episode that  might even be more fun/heartbreaking to listen to if you listen to Episode #8 first. You can find that here:  Frank and Dave: What happened?

Listener Karen seemed to know that we, as hosts , rarely have our fingers of the pulse of recent happenings. So she clued us into the updates about Frank Abagnale Jr. of "Catch Me If You Can" fame.


No Money Christmas!

Whose side is Karen on?

Flying Plane Guy!

Hair dye allergies!
