glue gun

Things are looking a little grim in this episode, which is not at all a bad thing because Stan and Jeff are joined by The Grim guitarist Bob Oedy. A true nardcore vet, Bob shares some of his history, from the formation of The Grim back in the early 80's, to switching it up and forming Glue Gun in the 90's, all the way to his current plate of writing books and organizing both punk shows and unions. Whether you want to learn about Punk Rock Bowling or optimizing work benefits, Bob has the scoop.

Even when life is full of school, work, sports, clubs, and other scheduled activities we feel the demand to entertain our kids when they are in the house. It is so hard to make our kids sit in their own boredom, to challenge them to entertain themselves.

We call it being the Cruise Director.

And, COVID quarantine has only made these demands even harder. We wrestle--mostly giggle, really--through this on this week's episode. We also spend some time talking about the power of a glue gun in the right hands, how we are not the right people for at-home crafts, and how quarantine is exhausting (even though we aren't going anywhere).


The Stat of the Week is less of a stat and more of a analysis of prescription drug commercials. We have a few thoughts on the weird commonalities among the various ads: boats / beaches, seamless time with the grandkids, and cover songs (Naughty by Nature, really?!?).
