Send us a Text Message. Props. to the Warren Buffett quote, but ol Mitch was wondering. If all people thought the same about a good car, an old sweatshirt, a good ball glove. The value of things like this. But what is held in high value these days? Probably a lot of the same things I hold as valuable, I reckon.

Send us a Text Message. I’m wondering, something has changed in me. I honestly think it’s a combination of things but as most things we discuss, I can’t put my finger on it.

Send us a Text Message. I’ve never seen the TV show Dateline, but apparently it’s pretty popular. One listener from the Midwest is wondering, exactly, why. Not the TV show exactly but why is true crime so popular. What is it that is so captivating? Why do we slow down at car wrecks, what’s the fascination? Today, DT and I do a deep dive. As deep as either of our brains can handle, anyway, on morbi...

Send us a Text Message. Today we discuss what has been termed as our culture becoming, well, stupider. It may be my opinion or it may not, but we have facts.

I am a little worried as we met when I lived there and she and her friends have always impressed me with being...

Send us a Text Message. I corralled Mook, Holly, and DT for what I hoped would be a serious discussion on aging in today's world.

Send us a Text Message. I noticed the 30 second clip of Aaron Judge smacking his 57th homer of the year on YouTube. They were talking about how close he was to the single season home run record set by Roger Maris. Turns out there have been MANY people who have not only broken the 61 single season homer mark but SMASHED it. The announcers don’t even speak about these players and those numbers becau...

Send us a Text Message. You guys know I love Texas. It’s just become…home, kinda easy on the mind. For me, anyway. I find my stride in rodeos, HEB grocery stores, warm weather, genuine people, great bbq, greater music, and a good airport. Over the years I’ve lived in a lot of places, but all those places feel like the steps I needed to make to get here. I feel like I was guided here. But to my won...
