The Family Archives

Mike McVay opens the show with the tale of his Corvair Spyder, which sets the tone of the show: things from the 60s.  Remember typewriters?  The kind that required you to have fingers strong enough to bend steel?  It's no wonder so many people opted to just stick with pen and paper for so long.  Or it could be because all the White Castle crumbs kept jamming up the keys.

Would Moon be safe hanging out with Tom? Should he take a security guard? What about the death penalty? For it or against it? Here comes episode 81 at moonpjuggandhobbs.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

If you wanna walk the walk, you gotta talk the talk.  In this case, "walk the walk" means get a job, and "talk the talk" means...what it sounds like.  Talk yourself up.  It's called schmoozing, and it's an art as ancient as humanity itself.  That's why Cody wrote Schmooze: What They Should Teach at Harvard Business School, which could be seen as the diplomatic partner to Sun Tsu's The Art of War. ...

If you've been not particularly happy with Disney's behavior over the past two years, you're not the only one.  That may be why they ousted Chapek after just under 1000 days and brought back Iger.  Or maybe they just couldn't handle the "Paycheck" joke any more.  It seems like eschewing the young is happening all over the place.  Angela Alvarez just won the Latin Grammy for new artist at the age o...

It's episode two two two two, which is perfect because today's episode is all about the two party system.  It's bad.  You may have heard that before.  But depending on who you ask, one party is a lot less bad than the other.  Sid and Mike Bryant are both not shy about which party they think that is.  Thing is, they might not agree on the party.  Hijinks, naturally, ensue. Sid-izens United: Salacio...

Its almost the holidays and we have mentally checked out. We have trouble keeping the car from veering into the wrong lane. We apologize See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Jason, GM of Walser Nissan Coon Rapids, comes in to talk cars.  What he didn't know is that we can't stay on topic for more than about five minutes.  To our credit, we did manage to talk about the new Ariya.  Also nitrogen.  It's a car thing, I swear.

Two years ago, in the middle of covid, Kathryn's dad was trying to come back up north from Arizona.  He was alone in a nursing home and couldn't get back to see his family.  But then, Veterans Airlift Command stepped up and gave him a free flight to honor his status as a World War 2 veteran.  There are millions of veterans out there, and thousands of them can't visit family or return home due to p...

Apparently Jay Leno and Kristyn have a lot in common.  They're both from the same town, apparently.  They've also both had severe burns.  I never said that having things in common is necessarily a good thing.  This podcast also shares some commonalities with a celebrity.  Sylvester Stallone has a Palm Beach house with many pools, while we have an inch of slush outside our office building.  You cou...

Elections can't be trusted.  Movies can't be trusted.  Crypto can't be trusted.  Not even our football teams can be trusted.  The Vikings, in the lead?  Something insidious is clearly going on.  So you have two choices.  You can either succumb to paranoia, or you can put your trust in something concrete and dependable.  Something that's been there since the very beginning.  That's right, we're tal...

When you think about famous people, you probably think about overdosing on drugs.  I mean, them overdosing on drugs.  Though you couldn't be blamed for wanting to end it all when you hear about the latest celebrity "news".  Anyway, there's a reason the connection between celebrities and drugs is so universal.  Harry Milman has gone through several celebrity deaths to investigate the strange circum...

Legendary Hollywood reporter Mike Evans joins us and we talk about how he and Tom launched their radio carriers as teenagers.

If you're 60% of Americans, you're going to go out and vote.  If you're the other 40%, you probably live in a place like Minneapolis where it's so skewed that you feel like voting is completely pointless.  Still, you never know.  Plus you get one of those stickers, and stickers are cool.

Spooktemper continues with Daniel, author of American Demon, who tells us all about cutting bodies in half with surgical precision.  I mean a serial killer doing it, not Daniel.  He's an author, not a surgeon.  And speaking of serial killers, we learn that Brett Favre might as well be one in Tom's eyes.  It doesn't get more evil than being a prick, apparently. American Demon: Eliot Ness and the Hu...

What do car stories and electroshock have in common?  Seriously, we're asking you.  And no, "this podcast" doesn't count.  How about this one: what do Landon and Kim have in common?  This time, "this podcast" does count.  As does KQ.  Now if they had both been treated for schizophrenia in the 1950s, we'd have solved both riddles.  Rarely is life that convenient.

Every culture has their own mythology related to death.  Most of them are pretty much the same: you die, you go somewhere else.  Sometimes that place isn't so good, but usually it's at least a lateral move.  But for all the worrying we do about the afterlife, we often don't do a great job at making sure this life goes smoothly.  Taking stupid risks, getting involved in crime, that sort of thing. ...

What do you get when you cross a human with more money than they know what to do with?  You get a lot of very bad behavior.  Aside from extremely bad opinions, this is the thread that connects pro athletes, politicians, and celebrities.  Oh, and drugs.  That's another thread.  And plastic surgery.  Actually, all rich people have quite a bit in common now that I think about it. See omnystudio.com/l...

It's the spookiest night of the year.  The day that the veil between the afterlife and the regularlife is thinnest.  Unless you ask Echo Bodine, in which case that's a bunch of crap.  But it certainly makes for a good backdrop for something like Shane's new show, 28 Days Haunted, which theorizes that it takes 28 days to transition from this realm to the next.  That's coincidentally also the amount...

Since about the year 0, faith leaders have searched for a way to make Jesus seem cool to teenagers.  Trying to mix Christianity and cutting edge pop culture trends often doesn't go well.  Evangelical rap is a great example of a catastrophic culture clash.  Robyn is the star of Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters, which is a Christian movie, but it doesn't try too hard to be cool, so it's actually goo...
