We don't know yet, but he will find out. Also, one doctor is spreading and STD through the hospital and another is trying to build its reputation by going on TV. Listen at the end for a trivia question so you can possibly win something!

    Face has some scheme worked up where he is pretending to be a music promoter and has access to some top country musician so he can somehow host a concert and take all of the money?

He manages to figure out something is amiss in town and it turns out the bar owner is planning a major heist and now they have to stop it. The plot is really weak here, it is basically a long Culture Club video. Check it out!

So Fun!

I just discovered this pod and really enjoy it. I watched almost all of the shows they reviewed and it’s fun to listen to them discuss them. I binged a bunch of episodes. They are entertaining and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

Awesome show!

Hosts Mike and Mike first talk about modern shows they currently are watching and then dive in to a scene be scene description of a show from the ‘70s and ‘80s. Their tales are entertaining and they note how times have changed! Between the two hosts they a nice detailed summary of the episode and presented in a fun, light-hearted fashion. I highly recommend!
