As the title indicates, we could use some of YOUR input on music topics.  I mean it's not like we talk about any topic for more than 1/4 of any episode (although there is some juicy Molly Hatchet and Jethro Tull stuff in the radio game today).

• Thanks for the theme music, feegee (@feegeeband)
• Mark shot a 50 and he's going to STATE!
• Errors & Omissions
• Watch "The Wrecking Crew" on Netflix or whatever

• We put the suck in seersucker
• Mark's Bird Island-Lake Lillian glory days story
• Puckered has entered the chat
• Our video debut
• Newt's promo and how Mark beat the system

Due to scheduling conflicts with Mark and Jim's super busy social calendars (or something like that), we went to the episode pantry and pulled this one off the shelf.  It was this, or canned peaches.

For all you Viking's fans, this is also known as the Scott Studwell episode.  Not because we talk about him or anything--but he did wear #55.  I bet he also knows Joey Browner.
In this episode, we finish up on 1976 by talking some music, TV shows and other useless banter.  

• Well, my broker is EF Hutton
• Newt's--yum--you should go there
• Saving best stuff for Mark (phrasing)
• There's no Joe Rogan Burger either!
