Well, it’s our first episode back after our recent live episode. Hopefully we’re not too rusty. There does seem to be a bit of a “performance hangover” the next time you try to entertain after a big production. In this instance, I’m not really sure why, seeing as we had a two-week break and we only work kind of hard on the show to begin with. I’m tempted to blame it on aging, but maybe that’s just because that’s the big darkness currently looming over us. One of the big looming darknesses anyway, there are multiple (more on that in the opening segment). Aging does seem to revolve around developing different varieties of hangover though. For example, I had softball practice yesterday, and today it feels like my thighs have gone on strike against the rest of my body. I just walked up the stairs so rigidly that I looked like Torgo from Manos: The Hands of Fate. But that’s just the cost of living a full life; after all, we can’t just lie around and do nothing all the time. Or…can we? Hm. Much to think about.
A lot of news to discuss in the opening segment, from tornadoes to several celebrity deaths to a prominent Chiefs fan getting sentenced to several decades in prison. Following that, it’s three tales of Guys, featuring an old-timey situation involving a mouse that’s so ridiculous we question whether it really happened, an eccentric old coot with a good idea to help his local penguin population, and a beloved comedian with a shocking final act.
