Social commentary from the point of view of two elder-statesmen. These statesmen are known by the monikers of "The Mentor" and "The Miscreant."

    Ruby Madness

    In this episode, the Miscreant and Mentor discuss the hype around the hantavirus and its possible origins.  Is it conspiracy theory, lunacy, or plain idiocy? You decide.  Next, there is a discussion about complexity for complexity's sake.  People have a way of making simple things complicated to appear complex.  This discussion is an attempt to demonstrate understanding of that, but to also challenge it.  The snack section contains three varieties of potato chips in specialty flavors.  Will the Miscreant vomit on air?  It's highly possible.  Lastly, the game section is an attempt to stump and confuse the geriatric Mentor with riddles.  Play along, join in, and enjoy the madness.

    Greener Grass

    In this episode, The Miscreant and The Mentor discuss the flaw in the logic of "The grass is greener." In a metaphorical discussion, the elders point out that urinals are much like life and regardless of how you try, you still get urinary blowback. Next is a discussion of several societal injustices. They then move on to discuss rude people and social etiquette/norms.  In the food tasting segment, they try several forms of chocolate, an energy drink, and some pickle flavored cashews.  For the game, they play 12 questions about a person in their minds. Join in the hilarity and play along.

    Unsolved Mysteries

    In this episode, the Miscreant and Mentor discuss some unsolved mysteries.  One of those mysteries revolve around last week's episode of "I seen it!" They finally figured out what the note meant.  They also discuss personal hygiene rituals and how it applies to individuals.  Once again, the issue of automatic headlights comes up.  For the taste test, there are two energy drinks that lead to some funny outbursts.  Lastly, the game is the picnic game.  Take a letter of the alphabet and name an item to take on the picnic.  The trick is to remember everything before including your next letter.  It's harder than it seems.  Play along and see how long the guys last.  Hilarity ensues.  Thank you for tuning in as always.

    I Seen It

    In this episode, the Miscreant and the Mentor scramble to record a podcast in the midst of family commitments and appointments so it's a little shorter than normal. However, it is still jam-packed with witty humor and hilarity.  First, they discuss some local folk phrases and transition into "I Seen It!" the theme for the episode.  (Listen and you'll see.  It's funny.) Next they talk about personal space and neck breathers at the grocery store.  Then they discuss medical marvels and the inability to put money toward meaningful advancements. Last is the game for the day which is "geography by alphabet." Play along as the Mentor has a mental breakdown. Thanks as always for your time, love, and loyalty.
