First and foremost--Jim swore way too much on this episode.  He (I) counted the F bombs and the sum is either impressive or embarrassing.  Shield your kids from this one.  It's not even good, quality swearing.  It's gratuitous, like every 80's movie showing boobs--whether it added to the story or not.  Bad example.  I'll do better.

• 6-month anniversary:  Shut it down or add another set of gear?
• Dinner or Supper?
• An Ascertainers message of hope
• Radio Game--on it's way out?
• Where is Atlanta Rhythm Section from?
• Rolling Stones picks
• Wardrobe discussion
• Mark sounds off on medleys (I checked--that's how you spell it)
• Jim botches Gimme Shelter--badly!
• Be nice.
• Golf update
• Ball talk
• It's still just myriad
• Shout out to Mark's sister Audie K
• Radio Bingo?
• Last minute Newt's promo

• Mark's new neighbor not impressed
• Sound effects
• Apologies to the Dutch
• MN State Fair recap hijacked by theme music update
• Newt's has a new  special
• Lefse talk
• Shout out to our Mom's
• Mistaken Identity at Newt's
• Radio Lame (err, Game)
• Rock stars like MN women
• Detective show or men's grooming product?

Listen closely and you will hear that the theme music has been re-recorded and sounds a little more warm and natural.  Shout out to Audie AD and PW!  Gotta be honest, this episode is very under control "in control."  Some may find it boring, others soothing.  Maybe don't operate heavy machinery while listening.  That's what our lawyers asked me to say.

• Golf talk.  Changing seasons
• Ranch water
• Radio Game
• TOP WHO SONGS
• RIP Gary Wright, guy from Smashmouth and Jimmy Buffet
• We finally get some emails
• Ascertainers merch being created
• Life before music apps like Shazam
• Just realizing we skipped the Newt's promo.  No bueno

Apparently, people who listen to this have too many T-shirts, because we didn't have to send any out this week!  Is this thing even on (see what I did there with the title)?
Pretty standard episode:

• Mark beat Jim in golf again (and gets a little cocky--stay tuned to see how that works out)
• We talk Newt's--including, "The Sara Spinaround," Jim puts his foot in his mouth (as usual), Mackaylie is a listener (also--how do you spell Mackaylie?)!
• We befriend a fellow golfer
• Jim's inspirational pep talk to the world
• Mark's seafoam shirt
• No need to go to the post office...
• Think Drink Disney fellas gave us a solid shoutout
• Far Side spank bank???
• Out of nowhere haircut shoutout
• New Radio Game format
• They'd be locking up a lot of old rock stars these days!
• 5 minutes of torture/we will fix the Radio Game
• Como Zoo and Sparky the Seal

Got a guest lined up for next week.  Stay weird, stay cool, stay you.

This one was recorded as a bonus episode that we could have on the shelf for a rainy day--then we realized we needed it right away, so it's literally being released in the order it was recorded....  For those that still think we are a music podcast, buckle up, because there's plenty of that ahead--as well as some very, very random stuff.

• Think twice about coffee at Mark's
• Have you guys ever heard of Newt's?
• The Birds & the Bees & my Dog 
• Radio Game
• Jeans in the Fall
• Cover Songs
• Titillate melts Jim's brain
• Bible stuff
• Wayne Cochran tangent
• Awkward wrap up

And that's all she wrote.  We've got a couple of fun things on the horizon with some younger, talented individuals helping us hopefully look good.  We need all the help we can get.  

Thanks for listening.  Whatever you do, DO NOT EMAIL US AT [email protected] .  Since begging for email ideas didn't work, let's see what kind of motivation works for this crowd.  

Also, we're up to 715 downloads in 5 countries--so you are not alone! But it's cool if you all tell two friends....

What in the world??  20 episodes already?  When we began this folly, I'm not sure either of us thought we'd make it to 20!  You'd think we'd be so much better with that much practice...  Because this episode was recorded after 2 previously recorded episodes were aired, there was a lot of time needed for Mark to correct/analyze/deflect, etc from those 2 episodes.  We eventually get into music and wrestling.  Totally worth the wait.

• Jim keeps saying this one's the charm
• New special at Newt's
• Pickles
• The Saints snub
• So-so night at the track
• Audie K's big birthday bash
• Fascinating MN Saints trivia
• More pimping other podcasts
• Extended errors and omissions
  • Jigsaw
  • Snagglepuss
  • Humble Pie
  • Jim's "unbelievable" memory
  • Curling/Smartless
  • Weather personalities
  • The T-shirt promo 
• Favorite wrestlers/Mean Gene
• New Radio Game criteria
• The "root" of the problem

Remember, to win a t-shirt, send us a comment or idea or just your name and address to [email protected]   Due to overwhelming demand, supplies are very limited, so stop what you're doing and send that email!
