So Doug and Strickland are getting thoughtful now, trying to respect your precious time by keeping the episode under an hour? I don't believe it. I think Doug had an appointment at Wal-Mart, and Strick was starting to sober up, so he needed to get more Fireball. Just my opinion. Do you want some cool merch?

That 10th anniversary is coming up and Strickland promised you some bonus "classic rewind" episodes before then, so here's another one. This was episode 200 originally airing September 6, 2016. I almost whish I was doing show notes for them back then, because this seems like a wild time. You've heard Doug mention Mantra Munchies before? This was the beginning of the end of THAT sponsorship. They h...

Stop me if you've heard this one before...Maybe I should stay away from the religious jokes, I could scare away both the listeners Doug and Strick have left. And Sally is studying religion? Damn, I could get myself in a lot of trouble there. I'll just quit now before I get into more trouble. Not that I was going to write anything more, I've already given you more information about the episode than...

Hey, shout out to me from Jared today! How cool is that, much appreciated. Maybe I should ask for a raise? Nah, if I did that they might actually make me listen to the whole episode and I don't think I could handle that. I think they're already considering replacing me with ChatGPT anyway, I probably shouldn't push my luck. Do you want some cool merch? Check out the store here- https://www.niceguy...

Hold on, Doug actually came to the episode with topics? That would indicate that he actually had a PLAN this week. That throws my whole cosmic world into a tizzy. Or is it a kerfuffle? I don't know, but I heard there's a new Steve O'Brien ad for the merch store so I'm gonna skip forward to that part and skip the rest. I didn't listen to any of the rest of the episode, but I suggest you do the same...

I was listening to the recording where they're complaining about Riverside and figuring out how it works, and I'm trying to decide where they want to actually start the episode...But they don't ever figure it out, so I guess I'll just leave it all in.

Doug mentioned finding the first NGOB episode and posting it as a bonus ep and (spoiler alert) I found it! But I found a lot more too, so I'm going to wait until the 10-year anniversary to re-post that one. Instead, you get episode 5 where we talk about how we randomly found Steve O'Brian and knew he was a pro right away. That was not quite the start of a beautiful friendship, it would take a few...

Erica, Emily, Jennie, and Sally. Strickland with 4 women? I didn't think he could handle it, he's not as young as he used to be. Sometimes old guys can surprise you I guess. At least I got this great recipe for Shepherd's Pie from Erica. Yea, I'm done writing, I've got to get to cooking! https://downshiftology.com/recipes/shepherds-pie/ Do you want some cool merch?

Doug's son Adam is sitting in with the guys today so I wanted to come up with a good clickbait-worthy title for him, but I'm not young and hip enough for that. I was originally thinking "D&S Get Some Extra A Today!" but since the "A" is Doug's son, I thought that might be inappropriate. Not that Doug and Strick aren't inappropriate enough already, but they're usually not when it comes to famil...

Doug retiring? Yea, he's waiting for that check in the mail but there's probably nothing in it for me. I've been loyally writing show notes for these guys for years and what thanks do I get? Nada. I sometimes even listen to the whole episode! Not that often, but sometimes. Well, Jared did write/record a song for me, that's more than he's done for Doug or Strick. So I've got that going for me. Whic...

$8 million deal with Amazon? Damn, that's some clickbait if I ever saw it. Amazon wouldn't pay those guys $80.00 even if they returned a $100.00 microphone!
