Episode #160 - MORE Pillow Talk with Angela!

On this week's show, Gary talks about the passing of his mother-in-law, as only Gary would. The conversation is touching, yet also completely hilarious. He also gives Tony MAJOR grief for something Tony DIDN'T do in the wake of the death! Plus:  What NOT to say to people who are in mourning; the return of the "What Does It Mean?" game; fascinating Fats Domino and Beatles trivia; and comedy from Nick Swardson, Robin Williams, and Carol Burnett. Despite this week's "theme", we think you'll find plenty of laughs!

Episode #161 - Nobody Likes Closing Night

When this show ran in December of 2015, it was one of the most uproarious episodes to date! For one thing, there is DRINKING involved! Tony’s good friend and former college roommate, Rob Garretson, is the author of the wine blog www.winefortherestofus.com. He plays a wine-tasting game with the guys–who ARE NOT DRINKERS–to see how developed their palettes are. Needless to say, the more they drink, the wilder (and sillier) this show gets! But that’s not all! Rob Ford’s mother, Anita, joins us LIVE IN STUDIO for this show! Tony and Gary try to get to the root of why Rob is…well…Rob. And that gets pretty funny, too. (Plus, Anita joins in on the wine game!) Also: a gift from Gary to Tony, and another Rob Ford music pick. This episode is SPECTACULAR! (Oh…and be sure to listen to the end for maximum “Robness”.)
