The aggro show. Colin lays down the gauntlet but Ray is too high to find it. Ray talks about his silver Christmas tree and grouses about his orphaned storage container. We discuss watching Gilligan’s Island at the bus station and the majesty of Rhode Island and then segue into some film talk. Ray bought Chris’s kids a bunch of Christmas presents including a black Barbie in a McDonalds outfit. We help a fan out with thoughts on how to construct a hidden door.

We welcome a special guest, Jaime the Hauler who brings a new perspective to the show. We talk trash and Jaime expresses his disdain for licensed contractors. We help our friend Patrice with a wonky deck and. Jaime tells us about deciding to stop taking acid because he freaked out thinking he was too big to fit in his room on his last one. We help Tom out with his sewer line planning and finally answer another user question about yelling at people.

Ray opens up the lively repartee by grousing about his mythic attempts at vanquishing his pantry of moths. This leads us to consider Colin's ancient can of Haggis. Ray is doing a purge and experiences and existential crisis regarding the origin mystery of some square pillow shams. Some shop talk ensues regarding compressors and insulating Filip's basement. Colin professes his love for Chapo Trap House. Finally Ray gets into his inter-generational trauma to finish on a high note.

Chris gets all Canadian Prog talking about being the Workin' Man. A listener smells frying sausage in the can which segues perfectly into a discussion of high-tech construction gadgets. Ray dishes about reinforcing masonry and Colin regales us with tales of paint stripper addiction, leading to tales of stripper nut burn. We end with some tasteful art talk.

In celebration of the Thanksgiving holiday we discuss turkey cooking techniques, things to be thankful for, and Ray's impending family visit. Ray gets into a sad story about a broken Green Egg cooker and Colin talks some deep fry. Chris tries to muster up some shit to be thankful for but Ray wants to contemplate oblivion. We end up discussing fixing brick walkways, painting an old garage door, and how to tile over a brick fireplace. Finally Ray laments his issues with reading his own writing.

Chris is back and ready to destabilize Ray once again. Lots of good home improvement talk including tips on hiring a contractor, building a loft bedroom, and picking paint colors. We respond to a disgruntled listener, and discuss our new survey. Ray needs his coloring book and we explore ways to keep away tweakers.

Chris takes the night off and long time fan and contributor Aaron joins us for the usual mix of shop talk and ADD inspired rambling. We explore getting sick on chewing tobacco, Ray's babysitter kiss, replacing soffit vents, and using aluminum wiring to thin the herd. Armand calls in to ask about squeaky floors and we fail to help him much. We end with a bit of Quizageddon and confusion.

The 3 Stooges get it going with a discussion of your stage names and Colin proves he is the most Muy Metal. Ray thanks Alison Rosen for having him on recently and then launches into reading his home improvement to do list for her new house. We dig deep into the specifications of Fart Fans for a caller and Ray and Chris see a camera and have to start punching each other. We then go dark with talk of bomb shelters and Armageddon. Finally, Ray finishes it off with some flat earth talk.

Ray revs it up with some musings on being hogtied followed by a good amount of actual home improvement discussions, which are predictably interrupted by more than enough 8th grade playground digressions. We wax philosophically on the term 'Macho' for a hot second, talk about drilling a hole in a fridge, best punk bands in OG LA scene, kitchen renovation, a siding fix, and wrap it up discussing plastic surgery disasters.

Ray and the boys take another misguided journey into the world of quiz shows with the second run of our internationally acclaimed Quizageddon game. Ray opens up the show with an exploration of his private habits leading to an uncomfortable pivot to the business at hand.They demonstrate their extensive knowledge of building codes, movie history, and family secrets (or lack thereof), while showing their trademark disregard for rules and decorum. Definitely a must listen episode.
