April 07, 2020 #290: Don't Sleep on the School of Mines
With no Gopher Football spring game this week, the podcast Gopher Football committee (Jon, official Gopher Football expert and brother Dave, and newly-minuted auxiliary Gopher Football expert and brother Shimul) gather to do an all-Minnesota gridiron episode. We review the 2019 season and Remember Some Games, figure out which players return in 2020 and which have moved on, and look forward to next season's schedule. Somewhere in the middle we discover the Jon-American team and which player Shimul is most disappointed in. And because this podcast has Dad Energy, we talk about our kids.

April 01, 2020 #289: The Mores and Folkways of Rural Minnesota (v2)
NOTE: Apparently the audio was broken on our earlier attempt at this. Please redownload.

Jon, Stu, and Clarence/Chiken gather to discuss the beer bracket, Edina, Tiger King, the cancellation of Grandma's Marathon (with Mandy), and offer a brief salute to Joe Diffey.

We couldn't do an entire episode without mentioning covid-19, just as no one can talk to anyone right now without discussing viruses, but we hope to soon get back to just yelling at each other.

March 16, 2020 Podcasting Is The Original Self-Quarantine
