"Come in...and know Mike better, man!"
As more people start to listen to our podcast, we thought it might be helpful for you all to know a little more about each of us. In Episode 13, it's Mike's turn.
Matt will pretend like he is an interviewer and help us get to know Mike better.
You will hear Mike say, "Let's get out of this craziness going on."
You will hear Matt say, "The doctors actually told Dana not to expect you to survive the weekend."
Look...we both are Michael Jackson fans. We can't really apologize for it. We embrace it.
We decided to continue some discussion about conspiracy theories and thought it would be fun to at a very current one. Who is right? Who is wrong? Will it have any effect on the 2020 election? Will it have any effect on our lives? Aren't conspiracy theories fun?
Some of them lead to crazy actions on all sides. We are less than 2 weeks away from election day and in our current climate it is likely to only get more crazy. And is it worth it? Will our lives come to a screeching halt if one wins over the other?
Listen to see if Mike announces his candidacy for President of the United States.
You'll hear Matt say, "Bigfoot? You know he's real."
You'll hear Mike say, "I need everyone to chill...out!"

And maybe John Titor didn't actually stop by, but it was a fun, brief discussion.
We cover another cancellation, since it came up in the news the day after we recorded our previous episode discussing cancellations.
Then we will talk a little about some politically correct language. Who determines what words are mean or no longer can be used? If a word or phrase has been around for centuries, then should it be changed and made to be a "bad word?"
Somehow, that will transition to a brief tangent on politicians, in general.
You'll hear Mike say, "Man...it has to be real. Pass me those chips!"
You'll hear Matt say, "They have a direct flight to Area 51."
Thank you so much!
To start off, we introduce our slow version of the theme song.
Rosa, the cleaning service representative, shows up while we are recording. So we say hello to her. You will also get a little bit of Mike's back story and his Rip Van Winkle experience.
Cancellations. They are happening all the time. Is it okay? Can people really change? Is there allowance for mistake in past years? Maybe there is. Maybe there should be.
Kennesaw Mountain Landis, major league baseball's first commissioner was removed from the MVP award title. This was the impetus for how we begin our discussion. As always, we have our tangents...but we do our best to stay on topic.
You'll hear Matt say, "I do that and people make fun of me all the time."
You'll hear Mike say, "Everyone says, "Ooh a spongebath." What? No fun!"
Please remember to share our podcast with your friends and family and your enemies.
How does David Bowie figure into our conversation? It's embarrassing, actually - for Matt. Enjoy it.
We catch up from our weekend and discuss how we can make America great again. When is that time period that we want to go back to? And what does it mean to make America great again? And was the United States of America made for everyone?
We also will talk about how black people and white people might view figures such as Santa...or Jesus differently.
After some random thoughts at the end, and a brief interruption from George, we will wrap up our episode.
You will hear Mike say, "I just want to know when we all going to make it great for everybody"
You will hear Matt say, "Nope...still not talking about anything interesting."
Enjoy the episode. Please remember to share us with others!
