Fear not though dear listener, as the duo head back into the shallow end of the pool to discuss a ranking of all 29 flavors of Pringles potato chips. Surely, you'll take umbrage with the results. Wine recaps a tale explaining the origins of her distaste for sprinklers, which in turn becomes a discussion on water-wasting and how we're all doomed.

CBMFP - Bastards Commercial
After 176 episodes of the podcast (201 collectively) I have no idea what people will latch on to or find amusing when we produce the show. I have heard feedback and feedback and it's always, always something different.
After 176 episodes of the podcast (201 collectively) I have no idea what people will latch on to or find amusing when we produce the show. I have heard feedback and feedback and it's always, always something different. Never in a million years (as the cliche goes) would I have guessed which part of our newest episode of the CBMFP 176 that Justin Wood would pick to make a commercial for the podcast for. He did it. He did it all on his own and I couldn't thank him enough because it was better than anything I could have come up with. If you want to hire this man (and I would recommend you do) then you can find him on Facebook and on Twitter. Again, thank you Justin Wood for making my day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gvo5lb74gt0
And hey I love doing shit backward so here's the visually safe version of as Justin called it Still Not Safe For Work version.
