    Midnight Mailbag Episode!
    Feb 17 2026

    After I talk about the Canadian Curling cheating scandal and husbands that really piss me off, the bulk of this episode is all thanks to listeners! I read some grandma stories, cover your merch suggestions, and more! We also cover the Holi-Days like, National Comfy Day before I close out the show with a surprise message from Ronda in The Tribune! For Premium Subscribers, the show doesn’t end in Germania because I’ve started the mini episodes of a Sopranos watch-along-podcast and tonight I’m talking about the Pilot!

    Top 10 Countries with the Best Food!
    Feb 11 2026

    The Olympics had me thinking about what countries have the best food so I found a list online and breaking it down for you! And yes, I disagree with the internet. I also talk about the Super Bowl Halftime Show, tv shows like The Chair Company and Beast Games, and I cover the Holi-Days like, National Flannel Day! And as always, I close out the show with Ronda and The Tribune.
