I grew up on the Bay Side,The DQ-Kings Side, ordering soft serve at High Tide. Dipping Dots had plans, the future of ice cream man. So I cruise on the avenue a hungry youth,Yo that swirl cone from Kohr Bros is the truth. Only way to set off lunch was copping a Chief Crunch. But it was just dream, for us teens, as ice cream fiends. Running down that truck, yo he couldn’t escape us! C.C.R.E.A.M. Col...

You know they say the best things in life are free, but what is the best to you may not be the best to me. There are so many things both little and big that bring comfort and joy to us all. Humans are funny creatures who can be so profoundly affected by the smallest thing, a line from a song, the taste of a certain food, a good nap, or the gentle caress of a loved one. The impact these things have...

Whether it’s Sbarro, Chick-fil-A...

Whatever happened to good old cable TV, HBO, Showtime, and Cinemax for free? Sometimes we miss the days of being up all night and groggily boarding the cartoon express. In this age of streaming, we forget when live TV ruled all. Remember running to the bathroom during a commercial so you didn’t miss anything, or having to wait a whole week for the next episode? TV had you covered from sports, to h...

Life as we know it is filled with enough gross things to make a stomach turn, which in itself could lead to another stinky situation. From the charming actions of household pets, to the wondrous “abilities” of the human body, one can only ponder why and how? So, hold your nose and grab a barf bag as the Sanitary Aveng...

Movies are great for a number of reasons but one of the biggest is the cool tools, gadgets, and items contained within them.

In this episode the LAD crew get together to debate their ultimate Man Cave...

What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. We don’t know about all that, but we do know athletes have some interesting names. Some inspire, some take us back, or if we’re being honest just make us laugh and wonder why? From Tacko to Spud the landscape of sports is home to memorable monikers the world over. So, open your ears and minds as the intellectuals o...

Twas three weeks before Christmas and all through the land, the LAD boys were ready with a big special planned. The lists were all finished, multiple categories to scan, as E returned from the tropics with a nice tan. Shine has his ice cream, Catman with no stache, had both joined the Zoom to giggle and laugh. There are foods, traditions, and icons that delight, while Beau regaled us with a tale o...

It’s been said that the world don’t move to the beat of just one drum. Loosely translated that means different strokes for different folks.

From soulful ballads to catchy little ditties to instrumental riffs, the fellas from LAD will have you getting...

Specific times call for specific beverages and we are not talking about Happy Hour! Sometimes you need a cold, tangy class of OJ in the morning to get you going.

Pop the top on your favorite soft drink, blend up a frozen concoction, or hang...

In honor of All Hallows’ Eve we have a killer episode. The LAD crew opens the crypt by telling tales of the scariest monsters and villains that haunt your dreams. So lock the door, check the windows, and get your flashlight ready because you never know what goes bump in the night.

There’s nothing I love more than cleaning around the house, slogging trash cans to the side of the road in any weather, or folding laundry. If the previous statement makes your heart happy, then you should get out more and probably skip this episode. As it turns out that crazy giraffe that lived in a toy store was right! Adulting sucks! So, avoid that stacks of dishes, and tune in as the responsib...
