Everything Is A Bitch Episode Two: Dino Heart Sassie
AJ and Ago are back with their second effort to deliver a real podcast. We've fired the landscaper and sent the dogs to behavioral therapy so we're hoping this passes inspection from the FIAB content police.
Today we talk a little Memorial Day and lament the fact that so many generations of Americans don't really have a grasp on the meaning of the day. We discover that neither of us are familiar with any of the "Hollywood Stars" taking part in the TMZ Summer Swimsuit Challenge.

Customer Reviews
To know him is to love him
Tells it like it is. Old NY, old Hollywood stories with relevant celebrity stories and some personal life and politics sprinkled in. He’s done it all, seen it all and says it all. AJ is like a family member that you just never get tired of hearing from. No I'm not Italian, not from NY but the guy will always be a favorite of mine.
What a waste
He resorted to bringing in the podcast producer to salvage this wreck. It’s like two idiots in a canoe desperately trying to bail out the water flooding their last hope
A couple of losers hoping to have a great podcast- No free bird taunting?
Inaccurate on politics—-missed crucial points “Mr Go deep - death of journalism” GURU ) groan.
Trump claimed he’d debate anyhow anywhere for awhile now (explains that), and no the house difference is down to ONE. Groan.
Had to turn off early.
Hopefully he’s getting kicked off of RLRC - even his two loyal “Aglettes” hate him. Nobody knows you nobody cares-quit riding on coattails of successes.
