#86 – Podcasting is the Mind Killer

Maybe in two years we'll record another episode?

Welcome back to the chaos, folks!

Derek, Grayson, and Vinny are back in the hosting seats, and we've got a jam-packed episode for you. Grayson, true to form, declares Adam Sandler the greatest actor of all time, and we're here for the debate. Vinny shares the trials and tribulations of buying movie tickets—because, let's be honest, it's an art form. Plus, we take a nostalgic trip down memory lane as we reminisce about our first jobs, with everyone dropping some wisdom about our Staples days. And of course, what's an episode without the classic tech support saga? Get ready for laughter, movie talk, and a dash of workplace nostalgia—this is the podcast you never knew you needed!

Vinny’s week involved wedding planning and creating a wedding gift registry, very fun stuff! He also may have been ridiculed at a Boston Starbucks over a certain drink.

Hello and welcome to a very special episode. Vinn…

Hello and welcome to a very special episode. Vinny was sick and following doctor’s orders he had to stay isolated from others. So over the internet, we have Grayson and Sam calling in. Crippled Sam missed the bottom step and broke his ankle, but don’t worry he's still under the age of 26. Grayson saw deadmau5 live and is sick of buying new pants to fit around his ever-increasing waistline so he is now on K-E-T-O. But what's keto? For those who don't know about KETO be sure to tune in to learn about this horrifying AMAZING diet. Vinny has a cold and is watching The Crown as a home remedy to relieve his symptoms. In addition to all that we also discuss the Royal Family, the legendary wrestler Silver King’s untimely death, the Rock's dad, pants jail, and magical light bulbs! Recorded 1/16/2020.
