EPISODE #82-- Sorry for the delay! One of these days we're going to get our act together. In the mean time, we got stories about the "raw water" "craze" that is sweeping dumb white America, criminal small clams, and one more reason (of many) why you shouldn't be a transphobe. Support our show at Patreon.com/quality.

EPISODE #81-- Braving heat and cold, the boys are back with a new crop of dumb stories. Today we've got a woman who ate ten too many tamales, a teacher getting busted for being a Nazi, what to do and what not to do when you encounter a frozen iguana, and another gross story about Trump AKA America's Grossest President. All this and more and Tim Allen sucks. Support our show at Patreon.com/quality. Follow James on twitter @kislingtwits and Alex @giraffetermath.

EPISODE #79-- In what might be our best and "best" episode yet, Alex and James (and Deanna) tackle mob-run strip clubs, naked men fighting trucks, and robo-cops. Plus we trash Frank Rizzo (may he rot in hell), Old New York, doggos, and a bunch of other trash. It's great. It's so good. Support our show at Patreon.com/quality.

EPISODE #78-- Oh, wait, actually this is the episode with the potato gun. It's been a weird week. I thought my dad might die again. Good news, he didn't! Anyways, we got that and a story about a hungry bear, moonshine, Steven Mnuchin's (alleged) coprophilic mail order problem, and potato guns. Support our show at Patreon.com/quality.
