Hiring Stu will be the best thing you ever did for your organization. Trust us. #HireStu.)

  • Episode 115: Out of the Trunk Came a Goat

    • Why didn't our dads like hugs? (18min-38min)

    • Updated Twins season wins predictions 
    • We mercilessly tease Jon about his delusional belief in the Twins
    • Gopher football season Vegas over/under reactions
    • Tailgating proposals but just a free taste of the milk -- if you want the full cow then you'll have to pay? Is that a saying?
    • At the 56 minute mark we bring it full circle and mercilessly tease Jon again, this time about being the local footie columnist
    In summary, we are pessimistic and bad friends. Plenty of laughs at least. Thanks for listening.
