JR and ThebandBiG! (Gary Hawthorne and Bryan McKenzie) get together to play some music, film a video, and record this podcast. Thing number one is all about the imminent Covid-19 Vaccine (JR talks science!). For thing number two, JR praises the podcast "Broken Record"...again. And thing number three was a real pain in the butt.

JR is back to discuss that moment when you decide to do something crazy, going downhill fast, Broken Record, and more about Scherzer's desire to kill and eat small animals.

JR's voice is mostly back, he voted, he got his oil changed, his mom wrote him a gross email, he can't wait to go skiing, No Dukes of Hazard in the Classroom, and his dog Scherzer isn't quite the killer he thinks he is.

JR is back, and as you will hear, he was sick, and has all but lost his voice. He shouldn't even be recording this episode, but he did, and now you have to listen, even though thing number three is rather disgusting. Listen at your own risk. Also, go VOTE on Tuesday if you haven't already, and watch The Amazing Race on Wednesday, cuz it's awesome. 

In this episode J.R. talks with his step-son Chester. Chester is stationed in Okinawa Japan with his wife, Meghan, two daughters, Aria and Malia, and a dog, Cappy. JR could have talked to Chester without recording it, but we know there's plenty of people out there that would love to get caught up on the Hensley's life in Japan, so that's what we are gonna do. Three things also include musicians Marc Rebillet, metal covers, and Air Force Practical jokes. 

This week JR welcomes his girlfriend's dad in to the "studio" for a rousing discussion of money, philosphy, and barefoot windsprints.

For episode number 30 JR's daughter Alison is FINALLY a guest on the show, along with Aliyah, JR's 2-YO grandaughter. It's really adorable when she says she has to go potty, Aliyah is adorable as well (HA!). But seriously folks, JR and Alison talk about some cool things: being a strong mom for her daughter, Van Life, The Long Way Up, and the YouTube videos we are only kind of embarrassed that we made many years ago.

On this week's episode JR chats with good friend, Charlottesville radio icon - Mark Conner. The Three things include: Love, old vinyl, "smoke yer face off!" and being beautiful.

Hey all, despite some funky sound issues, this is a pretty cool episode. Comedian Nick Deez and I talk comedy, our first gigs, our great, and not-so-great jokes, being step-dads, and more. Things include: What's in a name? Kobra Kai, and Pee Wee Herman.  

This week J.R. talks about the bear that broke in to his garage, the band Los Lobos, and his need for a baby stroller, not for a baby.
