Episode 100B: Jill’s Pick
How-do, Citizen! Welcome to Episode 100B, the first in our Whiparound Classics Edition running during our month-long break. As we’ve mentioned, for this and the following three shows, we’ll be re-airing some of our best work as chosen by the hosts themselves. This week, we let Jill make the call, and she chose a great one: Episode 90, “It’s UNKO Time,” featuring an appearance by our current champion in On-Air-Guest Appearances, Ward Van Haute, director-curator of the Bethlehem House Art Gallery. Episode 90 was the debut of Ward’s recurring segment, “Here’s Your Art News,” and for its inaugural entry, Mr. Van Haute brought us word of a museum in Japan dedicated to…well…poop. Plenty of hilarity ensues, of course.
See the original show notes below for even more content awaiting your eager ears, and be sure to tune in next week to hear what other episodes got that all-important re-airing nod!

Episode 90: It’s Unko Time!
Konnichiwa, Citizens! Your pals at the Whiparound are joined by a GUEST this week: returning pal of the show and director of the Bethlehem House Art Gallery, Ward Van Haute! And this time around, Ward brought plenty of fun and culture to the table, believe it! Shaun and Jill worked hard to keep up with our three-peat guest’s enthusiasm. Jill leapt to the forefront with a very, well, a very JILL story about Area 51, “aliens,” and a possible techno party in the desert, while Shaun reached into our past to update us on some amazing heavy metal knitting news out of Finland: we’ve got a champion to announce, ya’ll!
BUT FIRST!
Thanks to Mr. Van Haute’s natural comedy instincts and solid work ethic, the man brought us a NEW SEGMENT! Brace yourselves for some class, punks, ‘cuz it’s time for some em-effin’ ART NEWS! And this inaugural edition takes us to Japan for a (hopefully) one of a kind museum experience that everyone can relate to. Even if you might not really want to!
AND!
We’ve got a NEW GAME! It’s a fresh take on a classic when Shaun unveils a showstopping edition of the Build-A Workshop series. Jill and Ward knock this one way out of the park; DON’T miss it!
PLUS!
In Three for the Road, we’ve got a cursed amusement park up for sale, creepy, creepy kitties in a movie trailer, crooks with bad gas and terrible timing, and MORE!
Beauty is only skin deep, but if shallow fun is your game, look no further than…
The WHIPAROUND!
