Dusty is right, Uncle Buck is the best movie! I’ve seen it more times than I can count. My brother and I still randomly quote lines from it as 40 year olds. “Here’s a quarter, go downtown and have a rat gnaw that thing off your face!” Lol
2004 Episode: Aaron’s Game

3d ago

_*meep*_

Hey, Public Figures! I’m not a gamer myself, but all of my siblings would play. I seem to recall them being hysterical when their characters would fart on each other in a game called Totally Reliable Delivery Service. We’re all a bit younger than Aaron, so I’m not sure that it was the game he played, but I thought I might mention it. Also, Aaron and Dusty’s “Move Friend” and “I’ve Got Shovels” made my morning, noon, and night, my gosh! Love Biff too, obviously… anyhoo, thanks for all of the clean hilarity! THANK YOU FOR KEEPING THE NEW THEME SONG!
I have a theory

I have a theory on why the guys chose their backdrop colors on the podcast title image. Brian is red because he is like ketchup, he’s timeless and appreciated when he’s there. Aaron is mustard, you know when he’s there and he brings a POP. Dusty is mayonnaise, he feels homegrown, and you need to get to know him to truly appreciate him.
