Fresh Catch 2.0The Machines Are WinningSend us a textDavid got bumped aside during his recent Kroger shopping experience by the cute little robot doing price checks. Apparently it was annoyed by the need to nudge David away from carefully considering which Oreos to buy. At least that's how the squeaky sounds it emitted sounded to the nearby employee who lobbed sideways shaming at David. As we decried the Machine Kingdom we now inhabit as guests, the Thunder Dome mower of Dr Dave's neighbor growled in triumph. Tech might cut in line but we know funny.2025-07-2431 minFresh Catch 2.0The Parking Space Throw DownSend us a textIf you listen regularly to our podcast you know that it's not uncommon for Dr Dave to serve as David's therapist or host his confessions. It seems like a good thing to do. We all should look for low hanging fruit where at least one person is helped. In today's episode we explored David's recent confrontation while parking in a location familiar to the lowlife underbelly culture of Huntington: Patel's convenience store. We hope you don't grow disdain for David over what you hear but, if you do, be forewarned. He's not afraid...2025-04-2427 minFresh Catch 2.0Should David Do Blue Comedy?Send us a textTo be fair, we didn't actually and openly explore this question during our podcast. But it was in Dr Dave's heart as he sidled up to his funny friend and invited a deeper consideration of how, if, when, where, and why anyone who loves Jesus and makes a living doing comedy might dance in the Blue Zone. There would, of course, be hang-ups to reckon with. Not the least of these is based in the sinful, er, OCD nature of being judgmental to the core. Enjoy!!2025-04-0328 minFresh Catch 2.0Whispers in the BasementSend us a textPlease don't become gruff with us, loyal Freshies. We know we're a day late in posting this episode. But, as David explains in hushed tones from the sanctity of his basement, his house has been invaded, er, swarmed upon, no… ENRICHED by eight brothers who have massive drywalling skills. The whispers were due to David's desire not to say anything disrespectful about the culture of those doing beautiful work under his roof. On the other hand, Dr Dave felt very free to challenge David to get outside his comfort zone and become relational wh...2025-03-2829 minFresh Catch 2.0Let's Keep This Between Us (Fetch the Spatula!)Send us a textIf you're new to the Freshie Fellowship you may not have caught on to what our seasoned loyal listeners already know. David is a bit of a narcissist. Dr. Dave may also suffer from S.A.S. (self-absorption syndrome), but he tends to mask it well. This episode caught the funny guy in an exceedingly whiny state. He needed a friend to unload on. Since St. Betsy's spatula reference cast her as a bit more unsympathetic than David needed, he turned to the podcast to share about his recent traumatizing visit to the...2025-03-0628 minFresh Catch 2.0"Monkey toes, meet Rhett Butler."Send us a textIn this episode, David and Dr. Dave indulged in some old movie reminiscing. That led us to be vulnerable about what it was like to lag behind other teenage boys in our pubescent development. If you have monkey toes, you know. Listen closely, and you might pick up on the pain that still lingers. But we're here for you, loyal Freshies, so we pushed through our wounds to offer unparalleled wisdom and encouragement, soaked in a vocal impersonation that refused to be pinned down.2025-02-2730 minFresh Catch 2.0"Bird Seed Up-sale" - A Moral Dilemma?Send us a textPatience is a virtue. The Bible references this about 25 times. And David was a bit late to our scheduled recording time today because of an encounter at his local Tractor Supply store. Against the backdrop of this fresh experience (we deliver on the brand of our podcast name) — still breathless from the hustling irritation he was feeling — David invited Dr. Dave's moral critique. It led us into surprising territory. BTW, consider surprising your special Valentine tomorrow with a renamed body of water… it's trending.2025-02-1330 minFresh Catch 2.0Accountant vs. ComedianSend us a textOur episode today was fraught with distractions. We apologize. Dr. Dave's chair made sounds David imagined were from a human source. But the elephant in the room was David's appointment 15 minutes after our recording. To his credit, our brave little funny guy confessed his vulnerability and invited Dr. Dave to try and counsel him out of the state of dread David had as he anticipated the annual tax meeting with his accountant. If you giggle at David's expense, be sure to keep your receipts. 2025-02-0628 minFresh Catch 2.0Headliners – David's Secret Crush?Send us a textPlease forgive the tease behind this episode's title. While we did pounce on up-to-the-minute headlines (Roger's advice), it seemed out of character for us to do so. In post-production reflection, Dr Dave could not help but wonder what was driving our comedian's pursuit. We invite our loyal and embarrassingly small audience to be armchair psychologists and consider whether we have just witnessed evidence of David's fantasy to BE a headliner in Vegas. If you're ever at the Huntington DQ, ask "Jot" -- he seems to know a lot.2025-01-1631 minFresh Catch 2.0David UnzippedSend us a textIt all begins when we stand in our morning closets, selecting how to present ourselves to the world on any given day. For whatever reason, David felt like showing a bit of skin during this episode, and his unzipped exposure led us to fondly remember the Bee Gees and disco days. During a rare podcast recorded a mere hours before David earns a living doing a comedy gig, we treated our time as his professional warm-up act. 2024-12-0530 minFresh Catch 2.0David's Moral Reckoning at Pizza HutSend us a textWe started this episode with plenty of self-congratulations. It needed to be done and, frankly, we're not sure we'll get it from anyone else. But David came to our cackle-fest with a troubled heart. He needed to unburden himself. So, he told a story, inviting Dr Dave (first of all) and Freshies (next) to render judgement about whether he should be condemned or appreciated for how he responded to a heartfelt heart-tale when the personal pan pizza arrived.2024-06-2032 minFresh Catch 2.0David's Hoist Chair ProposalSend us a textIt became apparent during the course of this unrehearsed episode that David deserved recognition for his unusually advanced empathy. It revealed itself in the time he made available on Easter Sunday evening to his trans neighbor. And though he's not one to toot his own horn (he'll happily toot yours!), the level of care he's offered St Betsy while she recovers from surgery has been so imaginative it's hard to categorize. Nonetheless, Dr Dave sought to commend the unusual gift he is to those around him…no matter how it makes them feel. 2024-04-0432 minFresh Catch 2.0Our Own SpectrumSend us a textUnfortunately for loyal Florida listener, Paul Coy, we confounded his well-deserved shout out (a 3 hour drive to hear David entertain!) by loving the sound of our own voices. Dr Dave had trouble NOT impersonating Steve from "Love on the Spectrum" and David was trapped in his Fargo dialect. At least we didn't drop the F-bomb. Yet.2024-02-2931 minFresh Catch 2.0Holiday Upgrades Pt 2: HayschtackingSend us a textComedians have keenly trained ears; it's not fair to ask them to hear what's going on in the world like us common folks do. "Blessing and curse" is how David framed his audible-ity. So when Dr Dave was simply recounting a story by naming a favorite Campus Life kid from 40 years ago, Mr Funny couldn't stop giggling at the sound. It's OK that he acted like a 7th grade boy because soon enough he was reliving a terrifying moment from his high school days. Merry Christmas? Yes. Eventually. Sort of. ENJOY!2023-12-2130 minFresh Catch 2.0The Pink Eye EpisodeSend us a textIt's gotta be fresh for us to catch it in our giggle net. (Brilliant podcast branding, right?) Today's topic was unavoidable. And if you looked too closely it was scary. Dr Dave's conjunctivitis (commonly called "pink eye") was an irresistible fascination to Dave, who may have scribbled notes while we chatted. If you're attending one of his comedy shows during this busy stretch, listen carefully to see if his laughter-seeking contains any hint that he carries empathetic human decency. And if he riffs about males being whiny and self-absorbed...2023-11-0931 minFresh Catch 2.0"Don't look at me!"Send us a textHave you ever been humbled by someone who doesn't care about your otherwise impressive credentials? In the world of youth ministry the rules of engagement are, er…irregular. For instance, what possesses two young boys to press their bare bottoms against the picture window of an elderly woman? Dr Dave failed to probe this with David - probably because he was still feeling stung by his 6 year old granddaughter's morning greeting yesterday. 2023-10-2631 minFresh Catch 2.0Neighbor Cindy Bat-Brooms David's BedroomSend us a textAn episode's title seldom captures the wide-range of frolic loyal pod-heads can enjoy. We only hope we don't bury the lead. In the truest sense of "Fresh" and "Catch", we hear David breathlessly share a 9 hour-old story of a bat-in-his-bedroom encounter. As if in trauma aftershock, he was openly processing what happened and a bit shaken up by St. Betsy's threats to leave him. Can we extend a little grace for his raw, no-filter reporting?2023-08-2431 minFresh Catch 2.0Barbie, IBS & AI PoetrySend us a textWe sometimes wonder if listeners experience our 30 minute episodes flying by as quickly as we do when we laugh practically non-stop through our conversation. Today, even as Dr Dave was fishing for a little empathy about his stumble-bum injury, it was clear that David had a listener's gift to share. Dr Ron Coffey asked Artificial Intelligence to generate a poem about FC2.0. Apparently he fed the system info with a tad bit of bias. Much like the writers of Barbie must have done…according to David's movie review.2023-07-2731 minFresh Catch 2.0Grandpa Does the GrittySend us a textDavid's stories about his aging father, affectionally known to Freshies as "Pappy", often make us giggle and squirm at the same time. We love the raw inhibition. We expect his unpredictability. We can't wait to hear about where David finds the mess, not IF there's a mess to clean up. As it turns out, some of these endearing qualities are attractive to both of us who share the Fellowship of David. Like trying to do The Gritty.2023-07-2030 minFresh Catch 2.0Control at All CostsSend us a textDavid surrendered graciously because Dr Dave hits the buttons for our podcast. When it comes to the TV remote control our wives concede that we might possess the better skills, but the exchange might get a little testy. This, of course, illustrates a life truism: We are strangely comforted when we think we have control. Whether someone can actually handle the responsibility of control is an entirely different matter. For example, will Dr Dave be OK announcing tonight's baseball game after he skipped sleep entirely to finish a massive jigsaw puzzle? Only he...2023-05-1833 minFresh Catch 2.0Shout Out to the Shirtless Guys (please…we can't hear)Send us a textBeing on vacation or in the DR usually means near-the-beach conditions for David's Zoom connection. Today's Florida location was no exception. Under the pretense of needing to "steady his camera" – David peeled off his shirt at the outset. Well…(dramatic, Chant Thompson-like pause)…when we can hear one another (wives dispute this) we enjoy a conversational podcast that's free-flowing. But some things we see can't be ignored. An agenda was born for today's episode as soon as David embraced his off-the-shoulder look. Dr Dave joined the shirtless parade, palmetto bugs applauded, and at least...2023-05-1131 minFresh Catch 2.0Love the AwkwardSend us a textAs it turns out, both members of the FC2.0 podcast team have reasons to love those moments that feel awkward. David pounces on the comedic opportunity like an eagle swooping in on an innocent barnyard chick. Dr Dave is equally eager to capitalize on an occasion that has vulnerability and growth possibilities. Since most of us can at least swap stories of times when awkwardness hinders rather than helps, we wonder if this might be a way we could make a buck tag-teaming to share our expertise. Let us know what you think…un...2023-04-2030 minFresh Catch 2.0Self-AmusementSend us a textSometimes our podcast is recorded from remote locations that are cool. David has been on a beach in the Dominican Republic and Dr Dave has been gazing at Pikes Peak while we Zoom. If this episode feels like listeners are an afterthought because David is in a truck stop parking lot on the way to something really important…well…we're sorry. And maybe - just maybe - we repent. At least we'll talk about stuff that made us wonder if we should repent and then we agreed to repent. Don't judge.2023-04-1332 minFresh Catch 2.0Hotel Room EtiquetteSend us a textThis episode had a grunginess to it. Sorry. Our visual connection while recording was a bit unsettling, though we celebrated the shared casual space we enjoy in an audio-only podcast. But David's long road trip has him taking liberties with his hotel room accommodations that Dr Dave felt led to rebuke. He might have been too judge-y. To come full circle, if the "Buddy Award" that David (almost) enjoyed as a Lincoln School volunteer wasn't special enough, we may be able to join Comfort Inn housekeeping to pick up on why it was...2023-03-3031 minFresh Catch 2.0When Self-Awareness Fails UsSend us a textOur FC2.0 banter is never pre-arranged and generally we enjoy politely deferring to one another as we grope toward the agenda of the day. This episode betrayed those unspoken guidelines as David pounced immediately, hijacking the conversation so we could talk about Dr Dave's St Paddy's Day birthday. More specifically, he wanted to press in to the question of judgement that led Dr Dave to post the birthday-suit clad hungry eyes selfie that therapists are still helping youngsters cope with. Hard laughs…with some teeny regret!2023-03-1631 minFresh Catch 2.0Plagiarizing Jesus?Send us a textDr Dave insists that Jesus' words are public domain but that didn't keep David from praying for his forgiveness. At the very least, citation is needed. We would like to issue the same invitation that Grateful Dead offered their early audiences: feel free to use our stuff any way you want. When everything you say is absolutely fresh, you have no need to keep it in a vault for the next time you (and you alone) get to say it. Manna expired after one day, eaten or not. Fresh Catch 2.02023-03-0932 minFresh Catch 2.0Evidence of StupidSend us a textThis episode featured a debate about whether Dr Dave had actually done something that can only accurately be labeled as stupid. David tried to console a bit, explaining that the good Dr just made an honest mistake. But since the comedic core at the center of his personality is always whispering, "Pay attention…this could be funny…" his efforts didn't seem to offer much comfort. We turn to you, our loyal listeners, to render judgment as Dr Dave wriggles in the confessional. 2023-03-0231 minFresh Catch 2.0Gaslit, Godly & CheapSend us a textOne of the fascinating ways we all learn is to pay attention to the instruction others receive. You deserve college credit for listening to this episode. For 30 minutes Dr Dave became an eager student, insistently quizzing his street-wise pod-partner about gaslighting. While unaware of the term's meaning, he was well-acquainted with its practice. David's tutorial brought him up to speed. But it also seemed unnecessarily harsh. Why expose how DrDR's frugal nature crushes his hope to be godly? If you find any part of our giggly conversation offensive, we're sorry you feel that...2023-02-2231 minFresh Catch 2.0Grovel…Gargle…GravelSend us a textThere is no denying that this episode might be painful for listeners. David's otherwise pleasant voice got walloped by some seasonal bug. But he's a seasoned performer, and the show must go on…even when we're not making a buck to record FC2.0. If you like watching Yellowstone, you might enjoy David's John Dutton impersonation. And no one will like Dr Dave's version of that female cowhand who composts her every word.2022-12-2931 minFresh Catch 2.0Regrettable Public PerformancesSend us a textDavid is on the cusp of doing a comedy gig in Sarasota for a largely Amish-Mennonite crowd who will have just enjoyed a huge luncheon feast. While we swapped stories about the epic bombs both of us have delivered in front of large audiences, it felt like the truest undercurrent of this episode was to fortify David's heart for Sunday's upcoming challenge among those who "laugh internally." And BTW, please don't let Dr Dave's seasonally-sick, scary-deep voice ruin your own festive Christmas mood.2022-12-0135 minFresh Catch 2.0A Prairie Dog Sing-a-LongSend us a textThis episode allowed us to unpack one of our epic shared memories from decades ago as well as a very fresh experience one of us had among Colorado wildlife. The chance to lean into any moment allows us to be nourished and surprised by God's love . In one instance it was projectile vomiting amidst gale-force wind and rains during a Bears-Packers road trip game. The other, as reported by Dr Dave as David alternated between giggling and interviewing, was prairie dog fellowship on a solo hike. With Jesus, it's ALL good.2022-11-0334 minFresh Catch 2.0Hurry Isn't FunnySend us a textDr Dave blames himself for this one; he knows better. There's actually research about taking a minute to turn on our brain's "joy switch" before tasking it with creative demands like…well…providing an entertaining podcast. But right from the jump his urgent demeanor subdued his funny pod-ner, steering the conversation into highbrow matters of importance. (Except for that unfortunate reference where Dr Dave called his buddy Mike Higgs a "trans-Pentecostal"…). Oh, well. Maybe we shouldn't apologize; this episode offered helpful insights. It just wasn't our normal raucous fun-fest, in spite of what David...2022-10-2732 minFresh Catch 2.0Unlikely Worship SongsSend us a textIn Dr Dave's temporary youth pastor responsibilities he scrambles for creative ways to help kids. Idea testing is a crucial part of that process; David offered savvy insights about why deconstructing Bruno Mars' Uptown Funk might not be the way to go. Then he jumped into a wondrous riff about how a famed British naturalist might narrate the movements of two students seeking their evangelistic prey among cafeteria classmates. All in all, a pretty good episode on the eve of David's titanium neck infusion. 2022-10-1333 minFresh Catch 2.0Mind Manipulation TipsSend us a textIn this episode of FC 2.0, David proudly brought his own research discoveries into the conversation. He confessed that his purpose was to work magically hidden tricks of influence on Dr Dave. (Curiously, David had not reckoned with the fact that a secretive manipulation agenda might actually lose its advantage when it becomes publicly disclosed on a podcast, even one with less listener-traffic than an 8-year old's lemonade-stand.) Our frolicking conversation convinced us we can now help waitresses secure bigger tips. Stay tuned…2022-10-0633 minFresh Catch 2.0David's Best Buy-Pass ExperienceSend us a textCan you remember a time when you anticipated an amazing, long-awaited breakthrough? Research has shown that the joy in such expectation soars almost as high as the actual experience might deliver. Of course, most of us vividly recall when those hopes were dashed in disappointment because what we worked so hard for simply didn't come to fruition. This week's episode captures the angst of David's crushing realization that his Best Buy shopping adventure has not (yet) delivered the sound quality he's dreamed about for FC 2.0. If you're in Huntington, Indiana, and have 5 minutes...2022-09-2931 minFresh Catch 2.0Neighborly Sweat vs Podcasting SweatSend us a textWe survived a disruption in the wifi meta-verse to deliver this podcast to our loyal listeners. But this effort was not without some strain, however under appreciated it is by funny David. Perhaps he luxuriates in a continuous expectation of Green Room privilege as is befitting a paid entertainer. At any rate, what he does with his sweatiness contrasts with Dr Dave's post-production burdens. Here's hoping that David's long-suffering neighbor can continue to adjust her lawn-mowing schedule according to when we decide to record. There's a potential hug awaiting as compensation. Or condensation…2022-09-2234 minFresh Catch 2.0Rude Neighbors?Send us a textThis episode provoked painful self-discovery, courtesy of David's neighbor. She innocently mowed her lawn while our one-armed comedian podcasted. How could she not know that David – camped on his deck with his extravagant smart phone plugged into his ears – was trying to record something funny and worthwhile for worldwide distribution? Our complaints soon expanded. How insensitive for the train engineer to blow his whistle as he rumbled through town! What disgust as David's Pappy stripped off his aged jeans for a birthday suit plunge into the hot tub! CONCLUSION: The world rudel...2022-09-1532 minFresh Catch 2.0The Glory of a Secretive SpeedoSend us a textHaving launched into our episode with radio voice impressions that were borderline annoying, the bulk of our time was dedicated to satisfying David's thirst for understanding the psychological profile of a high school swim team manager. So, Dr Dave obliged – not by referencing some data base of published research – but by sharing candidly about his personal experiences. This podcast is dedicated to graduates from Peoria Richwoods Class of 1972, with whom the good Dr is about to celebrate a 50th reunion. Their class motto burst to life in his spirit…a tall, gangly, commanding swim t...2022-09-0131 minFresh Catch 2.0When Heaven GigglesSend us a textFirst things first. It's David's birthday and it was pure delight to share 32 minutes on this precious day of celebration with the entire FC2.0 pod-family. Unfortunately, David has lately been experiencing a bit of angst over some aging processes. So some of what happened on today's episode was Dr Dave consoling the birthday boy. Even more unfortunately (for our comedian), Dr Dave was less inclined to offer empathy than make sure we had a fun conversation that included "Jesus" as the best Freudian slip of all. 2022-08-2532 minFresh Catch 2.0Is Clark Griswold Timeless?Send us a textIt's summertime. That means some schedule shifts at the world HQ for Fresh Catch 2.0, and this week's road trip by Dr Dave is the first of such disruptions. That's OK. It gave us a chance to offer travel tips. But it was with great dismay we realized our coaching included references that millennials might not appreciate. We're hoping for the best but bracing ourselves for the worst. Hopefully, the feedback won't be like David's friendly neighborhood Ace hardware cashier recently received. We say it's her own fault. What was she thinking...2022-06-0231 minFresh Catch 2.0David on DisplaySend us a textHave you ever been around someone who's so well-built you hardly want to look at them? David's surprising shirtless look was impressive enough that Dr Dave dared not talk about it until we were well past the half-way point of debating what makes for good connections. We agreed that our friend, Mitch Kruse, is a gifted relational concierge…though to be fair that particular word was never uttered on this podcast. It could have been, had Dr Dave not become so infatuated with trying to understand what David's garden purrding activity actually meant. We...2022-05-2036 minFresh Catch 2.0Picture Your Cheekiest Problem - Lance It? or Tase It?Send us a textOnomatopoeia. What a great word to describe perfect word choices, where the sound of the word itself represents its essence. In today's episode, Dr Dave powered through a head-cold-heavy gruff tone in efforts to jerk David into cheeky exposure. A squeamish problem, for sure. Carelessly popping off, David insisted that only St Betsy's lance could be trusted…though Alex's self-tasing experience offered a novel solution. Giggle or guffaw, these words sound like this episode: GRUFF…JERK…CHEEKY…EXPOSE…SQUEAMISH…POP…LANCE…TASE.2022-05-1234 minFresh Catch 2.0Cuzzle UpSend us a textWe are not afraid to mash words together so we can say what we mean. I guess that's why David described himself on our new FC2.0 artwork cover as "cuzzling" up to Dr. Dave. This is an endearing posture, one that reveals warmth and affection. Pappy might have appreciated more of that from David and his family when his droopy mouth made him a bit self-conscious. Comedians are wired to learn just enough about others to poke fun, but not so inclined to actually be empathetic. So we wonder if a funeral viewing...2022-04-2236 minFresh Catch 2.0Avoid the Hungry Eyes of PlayfulnessSend us a textIt's St Patrick's Day and Dr Dave's birthday. For many of his friends, this is a day of haunting remembrance about the time a few years ago when he posted an unfortunate selfie. There's no hiding from such evidence in this day and age; in fact, this is perhaps the only thing keeping the good Dr. from seeking public office. We've come to expect David's extra-keen abilities to pounce on the vulnerable during such occasions. He doesn't disappoint. And his Depends prepared him perfectly for the raucous giggling shared in this episode.2022-03-1732 minFresh Catch 2.0David's Beauty MarkSend us a textThis isn't a video podcast. That means the two Daves show up in pretty casual dress to do their Zoom recording. In the past, much has been made of David's bare naked chest on a Caribbean beach, or the summer sleeveless shirts as the boys prep for a day's chores outside … you know, right before they get their vittles. But today's visual was disruptive in ways that made it impossible to engage any other topic, and it exposed how Dr Dave's lack of mercy might have inhibited his ministry among acne-infected teens.2022-02-1837 minFresh Catch 2.0Hairless Cats, Goat Yoga & BoundariesSend us a textThis was a wonky wi-fi episode so we kept it blessedly short. David was scurrying about, with only a few minutes before heading home from the Dominican Republic. Though he enjoyed the shirtless opportunity he had in this audio-only podcast, he was soon shook by Dr Dave's warnings about what he might see on the plane. And the Speedo-clad European tourists walking near him on the beach didn't help his mental state. As we ended, he headed to the airport with disturbing images as carry-ons he hoped NOT to declare to anyone upon...2022-01-2723 minFresh Catch 2.0David's Comedy Tour - who's his agent, anyway???Send us a textHe was sneaking around the JFK airport, trying to engage our podcast unmasked without being found out by TSA. Fresh from a post-Christmas experience (not really a gig) with Amish families…heading to a country (Dominican Republic) where English is a foreign language…David's a comedian in need of an audience that fits him! Aside from the hardship stories, there was an actual spigot of encouragement flowing between the fellas around the common joy of noticing what needs to be expressed – and God's gifts!2022-01-1332 minFresh Catch 2.0David's Special Connection with Local LumberjacksSend us a textWe were on shaky ground today. For the first time in Fresh Catch 2.0 history, we had to suspend our morning production due to shaky wifi connections. Once we reconvened in the early evening, it's like we'd been into the holiday egg nog a bit early. Also, David had a pretty emotional experience with a tree he's had for 20+ years, so the Podcast Therapy led us into how disruptive grief can be…and why planning ahead for our funeral music playlist straddles the line between love and an epic final prank.2021-12-2432 minFresh Catch 2.0Adele. Don't Get David Started.Send us a textWe agreed, albeit with a tad bit of hesitation, that anyone in the entertainment industry is fair game for snarky critiques. Hmmm. Why didn't we scrutinize David, a professional comedian, with that same lens? There's a lot of brain bias at work in what we remember, when we remember it, and what we feel entitled to do with those memories. This was a festive frolic.2021-12-0934 minFresh Catch 2.0Otto-mated Leverage in a Binary WorldSend us a textAt the outset, Dr Dave made it clear that he refused to be pinned down with the binary (YES or NO) question: do you have a cold? How fun to live in an age of limitless, self-constructed meaning-making! Of course, we should all engage in a bit of research that will help us make good judgements. Was David's joke funny? Guffaws in Carmel were only giggles at an event in Ohio. (Listeners could help David 'get his act together' by booking him in another 50 test sites for laugh-testing his material.) Or…we...2021-11-1931 minFresh Catch 2.0"Excellent!" …even a 'Dookie?'Send us a textAs the sun rose in the mountains, Dr Dave was able to join David for some laughs…a day later than normal. But the stories rose to the occasion, no doubt due to the after-glow from encountering earnest tourist-pleasers serving fantastic BBQ the night before. When the response to every menu item or playing card color choice here near Winter Park, CO, is "excellent!", it invites further discovery about what might not be so welcome. This, of course, led to David's "dookie in the woods" story. It will be tough for Dr Dave to e...2021-10-2228 minFresh Catch 2.0Experiences We Wouldn't Trade…Even When We WhineSend us a textDavid caught Dr Dave in the midst of a Texas whirlwind and his lame "howdy" efforts revealed just how much he was at the end of his rope. Too many…too much…too…everything. The cockroach was bow-legged. The barista demonstrated Middle East hospitality, not Texan. All of this in spite of multiple BBQ meals drinking his favorite pop (or soda if you're from New York), and the good Dr's best fashion effort which has consistently failed him. But life is rich when they include fascinating experiences and friends. We think we could hang wi...2021-10-1432 minFresh Catch 2.0Text Message Training - All You Need to KnowSend us a textHow do you prefer your text messages? Short and sweet? Sprinkled with love? There's lots of room for variety here and, as a public service, the Davidic Duo decided to help clean up the confusion. Not sure if we did. But the funny David was really on his game…you can tell he's out and about doing more gigs these days. Meanwhile, Dr Dave was a laughing soundtrack.2021-10-0728 minFresh Catch 2.0Cheek to Cheek?Send us a textThe life of a celebrity is fraught with danger at every turn. Is my next public event going to ruin me or make me a household name? Will my hosts provide the Green Room necessities as spelled out in my contract? From which shadowy corner will the paparazzi jump out, cameras a-clickin'? This episode pulls back the curtain on the burden of notoriety that comedian David Dean carries. It demands cheek-to-cheek interface with strangers. Thankfully, the Master of the Nearby Nudge is no stranger!2021-09-0930 minFresh Catch 2.0The KENNY Music Choice…for SpringHill Camp?!??Send us a textDr Dave records from one of the great Christian camps in America and ornery Dave feels the need to splash cold water on his prayer team vibe by challenging his taste in music. It is really cool when God connects the dots. So why is it when we try to mix and match the variety of experiential species, we're left with largely disturbing images? Still giggling…2021-08-0530 minFresh Catch 2.0The Jaw Thrust FantasySend us a textGrab a mirror to practice your own De Niro delivery technique alongside the Davidic Duo. Confrontational possibilities are endless. For David, it's the 8-yr old boy kicking his seat on a rare flight where he's burdened to sit among the commoners. He'd love to go all Goodfellas on him, hopefully haunting the kid's sleep with an enduring memory. Dr Dave imagines the fun of jaw-thrusting in everyday conversations. But like his recent county fair capri pants faux pas, he's resigned himself to the likelihood that few will enjoy such experiences like he will. 2021-07-2236 minFresh Catch 2.0Celebrate Life…in ClamdiggersSend us a textTo be accurate, we're not exactly sure that Dr Dave's extra-long shorts qualify as clamdiggers. We've been banished to fashion uncertainty. We Daves simply do not know what works to wear in public anymore…even when the bar is set to 4-H fair standards. Against that backdrop, there was also David's report of a zesty celebration of life after the tragic death of a friend. We can carry each other into hope when we have a mind to do so. And is it so far-fetched to think of whistling in response to God's am...2021-07-1636 minFresh Catch 2.0"When Do the Jokes Start?"Send us a textThere was a bit of carryover from last week's podcast as we heard from longtime listener and good friend, Dave Veerman, about his jet-lag induced lack of attention to a missionary and the subsequent generic prayer that was all our buddy could muster when called upon. Ouch! David also needed a bit of hand-holding from Dr Dave (aka, Dr Phil) over some recent stinging experiences from hecklers. NOTE: There's an underage grade schooler who might just be strutting around Angola, IN, bragging to his kickball buddies about how he put down a professional...2021-06-2435 minFresh Catch 2.0Those Eyebrows Are FetchingSend us a textAfter last week's giggle-fest we tried to leave our buddy Roger alone…but in the short declaration about our honest intent, describing his raised eyebrows moments before sent us spinning off into a discussion that might lead every listener to the mirror with trimming scissors in hand. Eventually we zeroed in on Dr Dave's use of the word "fetch" to describe the midnight drive he made to Chicago to pick up his wife at the airport. David's keen eye for social media snafus depends on — and appreciates — the same diversity of perspectives that are th...2021-06-1035 minFresh Catch 2.0Food is Good… But Does Good = Food?Send us a textRarely do either of the two Daves come to a podcast determined to chase a topic with notes in hand. But David had a bone to pick with our mutual friend, Roger, and – being unsatisfied by their private exchange – he aired his grievance in front of the entire Fresh Catch Nation. He prepared like a lawyer in desperate need of a victory…or a comedian fishing for his first laugh. Dr Dave acted as proxy-judge on behalf of all 17 listeners…a gavel grip he held onto while David sought an additional ruling about St Betsy...2021-06-0334 minFresh Catch 2.0"It's not a house I'd like to die in."Send us a textSometimes David's curiosity is that of an outlier among normal humans. He seeks follow-up for the comedic potential inside the nut to be cracked open. But Dr Dave joined him in the head-tilting exploration about what David's neighbor could have possibly meant – and not meant – when she shared this thought about their home. Have you considered what clothing… activities… meals… homes… are "death-worthy?" Gosh, this was fun.2021-05-2732 minFresh Catch 2.0The Wizard: A Pusty Jackwagon?Send us a textThis episode featured special guest, Mark Boersma, an entrepreneurial businessman who attributes his success, in part, to having "social autism"…a label David immediately tried to confer on himself. In addition to being the Wizard's best friend, Mark introduced us to the concept of "pusty" and David offered that his way of calling someone stupid is using the gentler, less obvious term, "jackwagon." Along the way Mark asked David remarkably few questions in order to get insights on his personality (a longtime struggle pod-partner Dr. Dave has worked on). If Mark's 2-question, 17-second te...2021-05-2035 minFresh Catch 2.0"Bring it on!" (End Times citation: J Haggy)Send us a textIs it even possible to intimidate someone who welcomes every life episode as an opportunity to poke and prod until you can find a laugh? David's worldview outlook is pretty solid; will he welcome a different kind of probing in the future from Dr Dave's new friend? This episode offers a peek at the production meeting discussions we have routinely…or…more accurately…it reveals something rare: we made a decision made about Fresh Catch content a week before we will start recording. Try not to judge us too harshly.2021-05-1332 minFresh Catch 2.0The 'Vid Revisits David…Laughing Nonstop!Send us a textWe are not making light of this pandemic. But, in keeping with the comedian's worldview that nothing is off-limits when it comes to laughter, David spilled his guts about his current bout with COVID-19 (he likely had it in January 2020). In fact, as David recounts his story about why he spilled his guts last night, and why St Betsy giggled in delight over the instance, you might find yourself judging us for our various responses. Have at it. This was funny! Oh, we know we're a day...2021-05-0734 minFresh Catch 2.0"You're not the only David in the room."Send us a textDr Dave pressed his point with such enthusiasm he momentarily forgot that his given name was also bestowed on his podcast partner. Within normal conversations it might be fair to accuse him of lacking empathy or awareness. Also possible (though a bit harsh) is that he's simply self-absorbed. In the presence of a comedian, it became a feast. David pounced on the good doctor's misspeak like a lion jumping on a wounded gazelle at the back of the herd. There was merciless carnage everywhere.2021-04-2931 minFresh Catch 2.0Is It Culturally Insensitive If You're Just Insensitive?Send us a textThe question evolved as we started complaining about the Cubs. Unless you're one of our podcast's Faithful Few (big shout out to Dr Terry Linhart) you might be perplexed about how this sort of beginning led to our romp through the minefields of conversations that may…or may not be properly sensitive. Just ask David's neighbor or Dr.Dave's high school buddy, the Turk.2021-04-1534 minFresh Catch 2.0"That's the worst idea ever…what time?"Send us a textHave you ever seen someone wearing a t-shirt that made you wonder…well…WONDER? Now imagine that you are "gifted" with a hyper-comedic perspective on the world. Dr. Dave tried to be sympathetic to David's difficulty in making sense of what he witnessed in the airport until we lost our compass and giggled our way through this podcast. When David leaned close to the camera and began whisper-bragging about the ways he was asserting himself in his son's Florida home there was no turning back. Only turning off. ;-) 2021-04-0233 minFresh Catch 2.0Your Easter TV Media GuideSend us a textDr Dave came out swinging. Hard. At one point, funny Dave practically begged for mercy. For relief. He confessed feeling guilty. Dr Dave didn't back off. He told yet another story as evidence, raised yet another question to expose his pod-brother's frail defenses. A slight diversion into Kirk Franklin's disheartening public exchange with his son was only a brief speed bump, quickly covered with a FC2.0 first: a prayer offering. There was no stopping Dr Dave's fierce recommendation about the TV show you must watch if you love God. TBD…2021-03-2533 minFresh Catch 2.0Dings, Dingbats, Specters and That ONE PictureSend us a textOn the day after Dr. Dave's birthday, David wanted to understand why he delayed in his social media response to the funny guy's well-wishes. He asked for it… In the confusion that followed we discovered that sometimes we flail about in our efforts to say something and come up with a word that's not quite on target. That doesn't mean it's not funny. Shout out to Seth Kimmel for stirring up trouble.2021-03-1833 minFresh Catch 2.0Seize Every Opportunity…but Learn InstagramSend us a textGood friends let one another know when there's spinach in their smile. In that spirit, David (the younger) alerted Dave (the aged) about his Instagram missteps. This courtesy was met simultaneously with gratitude (Dave would prefer NOT to be foolish) and dismay (others must see the gaffe and simply shake their head). Guffaws aside, or at least suppressed, the duo dove into a great conversation about great conversations. Step up!!2021-03-0435 minFresh Catch 2.0David's Bare-Chested Critique of EuropeansSend us a textHe's on location for a couple more days. Blue sky. Pristine beach. Azure water. Serene music. So what does our favorite funny man do? He fixates on European tourists. And recounts his recent painful spontaneous gig among front line health care workers in the Dominican Republic who hardly giggled at his comedic offerings. Unfortunately for David, Dr Dave was unsympathetic. 2021-01-2831 minFresh Catch 2.0The Sweat Test: Virtuous TravelSend us a textFrom the first moment we engaged in our Zoom podcast there was tension. Why? Because David's picturesque background of the Caribbean while on the beach in the Dominican Republic felt like an in-your-face showcase to Dr Dave, struggling with his blanket to keep warm in Northern Indiana. So much ground was covered here…literally, as David walked us across the sand from one location to another in search of just the right wi-fi signal. You know where he didn't look for an Internet connection? At the dump, in spite of his insistence that he...2021-01-2132 minFresh Catch 2.0Can You Smell What I'm Feeling? (No. The Answer is Always No.)Send us a textAs Dr Dave prepares for his COVID jailbreak he still has not recovered his sense of smell. David thinks there might be some line of income to be harvested from this malady. But this investigation requires a degree of empathy, something that - as was made abundantly clear during this episode - neither Dave possesses to the satisfaction of others. Especially women. But think about it: Don't we all find some glorious, deranged comfort in being so unique that no one really understands us? Of course, God has a different take…2021-01-1434 minFresh Catch 2.0David's One Liners, Courtesy of JeremySend us a textTo be fair, David gave credit to his buddy, Jeremy, for being a funny writer. But not every fashion designer can strut the sell on the boardwalk; that's why David makes money doing comedy and Jeremy just makes money. Lots of laughs today, as befits a wrap up to one of the toughest years (collectively) we've ever seen. Lord, please give us a new storyline for 2021!2020-12-3132 minFresh Catch 2.0Mr. Mayor, Plz Quit Throwing ElbowsSend us a textIt was a Fresh Catch first as the Davidic duo was joined by Huntington mayor, Richard Strick, for a lively exchange about the burdens of leadership during COVID. With refreshing transparency, David's neighbor and Dr. Dave's former student gave us a peek into the how and why of issuing executive orders about mask-wearing…listening to those who disagree strongly…and the need for comedic contributions as we engage public life together. In case it comes to fruition, you can hear the moment when David lobbied the mayor to host a stand-up gig in the...2020-12-1041 minFresh Catch 2.0The Treadmill EpisodeSend us a textThanksgiving is history; it's time to get back in shape. David's confessed love for the McRib aside (he's chasing a product endorsement), he found another gear of indignity as he reflected on how his beloved son, Alex, not only inconvenienced him during this holiday visit, he showed NO respect for Mrs. Pickles. Chant Thompson got a shout out for being a ridiculously willing thrill seeker…if by thrills you mean camping out all night before a Ponderosa grand opening. All of this, by the way, took place while Dr Dave was trying to ge...2020-12-0332 minFresh Catch 2.0David's Shorts in the Neighbor's Yard: How to ListenSend us a textDavid's compassion from the last episode carried over at the beginning of our time together as he asserted his intent to care more by listening more. Then he told a fresh story about his shorts…which led into other stories about bygone shorts…which led to him refusing to accept that Haitians watching him on the toilet and asking him if he was OK was a form of love that listens. Here's hoping you have a love-loaded Listenfest around whatever social distance Thanksgiving table you are able to enjoy!2020-11-2632 minFresh Catch 2.0Trust Your Intuition…SometimesSend us a textTune into this episode to hear David describe how important his intuition is to being a comedian. You can also hear David confess that his intuition is sometimes in need of impulse control. Dr Dave – having spent two weeks with his 5 yr old and 3 yr old grandkids in Colorado – offered some gentle commentary about impulse control. Whatever word describes next level giggling…guffaws, horselaughs, side-splitting, coffee-spewing laughter…that's what we enjoyed during our 30 minutes together. Jump in with us!!2020-10-2331 minFresh Catch 2.0The Indiana - Colorado Connection, Part 2Send us a textDr Dave tuned in from an even more remote mountain connection. Whether it was the high altitude or hotel confinement with grandkids and a clogged toilet, his lack of inhibitions seemed a bit disturbing to David, our seasoned comedian. Normally unflappable (after all, he engages crowd hecklers with skillful and witty responses), apparently he can be stunned into paralyzing laughter – exactly what both of us needed today. Enjoy!2020-10-1630 minFresh Catch 2.0Ghosting, Belt Buckles, and the Fear of Saying Inappropriate ThingsSend us a textWe were all over the map in today's conversation. Zig zagging from David's tender expression(!) of empathy for Dr Dave as he had a fleeting thought that he was being ghosted by his bride of 44 years to enjoying God's presence when stepping on any stage – even when a bit scared that we’ll mess up. The belt buckle discussion was one of those scratch-your-head moments as we wondered aloud together how we camped on that topic for a while. We hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did!2020-09-1134 minFresh Catch 2.0Those You Enjoy the MostSend us a textThe two Dave's had an all-to-rare face-to-face at a recent dinner party where the stories were flying and the ongoing laughter was so satisfying they didn't want it to end. Predictably, Dr. Dave tried to connect all of this to super smart brain science and Scripture while David just kept giggling like Chris Farley asking, "Do you remember when…?"2020-09-0437 minFresh Catch 2.0David Hunts for Disruptive JoySend us a textUnlike the typical give and take between pod-partners, David seized control and never looked back. The occasion? Ebonie Davis, Dr. Dave's co-author for the newly released book, Disrupting Teens with Joy, was our guest. BTW, if you imagined that David might upgrade his attire to host our special friend, you'd be wrong. And we had a Fresh Catch first when Eb divulged something immediately after we ended the podcast that was too delicious to ignore…so we quickly hit "record" and tacked it on to this episode!2020-08-2833 minFresh Catch 2.0Searching for Our Demographic with 4-Yr Old SullySend us a textWe confess that, while we've got a few loyal listeners, we really don't know why. Should the Dave Duo get more dialed in to expand our base? Maybe. In the meantime, we had a blast recalling stories about spanking after mooning and the challenge of raising kids today…or even caring for grandkids. To the witness stand? Dr. Dave's grandson, Sully, on loan for the day. Our big aha! was that some listeners have a short attention span. We'll work on it…2020-08-2131 minFresh Catch 2.0Sleeveless Dress Shirts, Swarthy Uncles & Joyful DisruptionsSend us a textWe bounced around quite a bit today, fully enjoying the freedom of wearing what we want for an audio podcast. Disturbing recollections of childhood experiences with extended family members are not only bothersome…they create a target for us to aim at. And David committed to read Dr Dave's new book as long as he doesn't have to pay for it.2020-08-1433 minFresh Catch 2.0When "Friends" Learn Big News First via FacebookSend us a textIn this episode David seemed obsessed with engaging Dr Dave in a DTR conversation (Define the Relationship). A bit more emotionally fragile than normal, our favorite comedian noted Dr Dave had posted on social media his plans to teach an upcoming grad class at Bethel University (Indiana) and was a bit miffed that he had to hear of this at the same time as thousands(?) of other Looky-Lou friends. So he pressed in: "Where do I stand with you?" David was hoping for something better than the response Dr Dave gave.2020-08-0730 minFresh Catch 2.0David's (Disappointing) Ambush of His Lil' PumpkinSend us a textLast week's episode left David smoldering. His friend Roger had embarrassed him by greeting him loudly with "Hey, Pumpkin!" across the crowded restaurant. So David plotted the line of attack he imagined taking by inviting Roger to make a rare guest appearance on this podcast. In spite of the bravado predicting a comedic smackdown, our funny orange globe of seeds fell short of his promise (according to Dr Dave, an apparently biased moderator). The contest is under review. In the meantime, evidence is gathering that David is in medical need of a live...2020-07-3129 minFresh Catch 2.0How a Bacon Neck Reveals David's Comedy Tune-Up NeedSend us a textSarcasm doesn't translate well to social media posts. Duh - do you think? While we unpacked how to be thoughtful, respectful and engaging during Facebook interaction, we were mostly giving David some needed space to stretch out his comedy performance muscles in anticipation of his live audience gig this Sunday…the first since March 6. As our good friend, Roger Vezeau, might say amidst the lunchtime crowd at Huntington's Los Amigos restaurant: "Go get 'em, Pumpkin!"2020-07-2430 minFresh Catch 2.0Got a minute? NO!! Time is money!Send us a textDavid was clearly miffed at something, so he came out swinging (or whatever might be the equivalent for his cute little comedic fists). With all of the important things we could talk about that might really be helpful to someone, David fixated on how Dr Dave was a minute late to our scheduled podcast - "What could possibly be so important now that you're retired?" he challenged. The verbal jousting that followed kept us from solving any big problems…so we apologize for not agreeing about wearing masks. 2020-07-1730 minFresh Catch 2.0Engaging the World Like a Drone - Not Exactly Jesus' StyleSend us a textWe are officially declaring ourselves to be "platonic pod partners" and are willing to take the social heat. In the meantime, we're muddling through all of the ways we can engage complex issues today with others. It's not easy! David called Dr. Dave a drone and we laughed about how one of his earliest sermons about 50 years ago had 17 points…so "droning" fits. By contrast, Jesus - then and now - is remarkably concise and provocative.2020-07-1031 minFresh Catch 2.0Being Sifted Until Your Sleeves Fall OffSend us a textDr. Dave experienced Zoom whiplash. David's sleeveless-ness today contrasted with N.T. Wright's attire yesterday. Fittingly (which is what you do when you cut the sleeves off shirts for summer styling in Indiana), though our little podcast might not be smart-sounding like a webinar from Wycliffe Hall at Oxford University, we did make practical sense of what Jesus meant by being "sifted." N.T. Wright – perhaps the world's most influential Bible scholar – probably could have done better. But we concluded it's because he uses pretentious British initials, and that's a price D.D. Rahn...2020-06-2630 minFresh Catch 2.0More HARD Conversations Ahead, If Only…Send us a textWe celebrated for a moment the rich, lingering benefit we gained from last week's episode with Arthur Wilson and Josh Raines. But, as critical as it is to gain breakthrough insights about what our black friends routinely encounter, this is only a foundation for finding shared solutions. Apparently, David is resistant to the idea that he might become the Reconciling Clown of COVID. Seriously, we resolve to step into peace-making with all of our assets, including the extra time Dr. Dave will have as he retires next week from Youth for Christ. This...2020-06-1225 minFresh Catch 2.0Moustache Wax, Branding Ourselves & Duking It OutSend us a textMost often we giggle so much it's like we're cuddling. Much of this podcast took that vibe as we talked about how authentic creativity differs from gimmickry. But something dark arose in David's heart as he seethed quietly, eager to be pugnacious. Perhaps it's because Dr. Dave's new moustache style invoked a memory about some schoolboy report he once had to write about famed boxer, John L. Sullivan. It doesn't matter now. We are officially teed up for some nasty sparring next week. The question is, can we deliver?2020-05-1530 minFresh Catch 2.0"If only…" - a Near Miss Movie Career & COVID NeighboringSend us a textHave you ever been startled by someone's unusual competence? David was ready to roll for this podcast and his tight execution was almost disruptive. Not quite as unsettling as the pandemic, though there seems to be some good neighbor growth to be celebrated during these homebound days. Remembering God's goodness is a habit worth practicing, even when the memories tag each other so rapidly that it's hard to keep up with why a story might come to mind…like Dr Dave's brief opportunity to become a famous wilderness videographer.2020-05-0130 minFresh Catch 2.0Less Blaming, Please?Send us a textWhen you're stuck in the same place for a while it's only natural to start seeing things you can find fault with. We've both noticed how that's hitting us. This was a pretty convenient topic since David can't be trusted to push the right Zoom button. In fact, we instituted a Praise Zoom technique many listeners might find useful. Above all, we are grateful for how often our wives rescue us and that Jesus can help David not grow weary of Dr Dave.2020-04-2426 minFresh Catch 2.0Scruffy Beards, Ugly Toes, & David's Missing NavelSend us a textLike many people during this COVID shelter-in-place, we have become less attentive to personal grooming routines. Somehow, as is typical in our wandering conversations, we started chatting about toes before David's big reveal of nothing where most of humanity has something. He explained how it came to be that his bellybutton evaporated and, no, magician David Blaine had nothing to do with it. And while we both are trying to re-routine our lives, being content depends on trusting God, who defies any attempt to be controlled.2020-04-1727 minFresh Catch 2.0Mrs Pickles Testifies to David's ConversionSend us a textOn Easter weekend we talked about the profound life change David has recently experienced…due to a stray cat. This one's a bit edgy as Dr Dave pursues the kind of information that inquiring minds want to know. (Or, more likely, news-weary minds simply want a brief reprieve.) BTW, post on https://www.facebook.com/daviddeancomedy/ if you want to engage David about our little secret. Happy Easter, be safe, and trust Jesus for your most durable joy!2020-04-1025 minFresh Catch 2.0ZOOM: Brady Bunched is BestSend us a textThank God for technology that allows us to connect during COVID-19. The hug deprivation we are all going through has us dreaming about the day when human touch isn't dangerous. In the meantime, could someone please help David push the buttons that make Zoom work? He confessed how eager he was to re-engage with Dr Dave after a week. He spruced up. Felt his heart racing. Winced a bit over what he saw in his bathroom mirror. And then, filled with anticipation, he stumbled in the moment. In his mind, Zoom could be...2020-04-0328 minFresh Catch 2.0"Don't forget to bathe."Send us a textDavid misses applause. It's how he make money. And apparently his beloved wife, Saint Betsy, also thinks he might be inclined to neglect some hygiene habits. Though it was unspoken, it felt like we agreed to be accountable to one another during our weekly check-in. Maybe that's why David felt like he wanted to know more about what prompted Dr Dave to post an 'edgy' message directed toward faith leaders whose stupidity is embarrassing. Dr Dave is praying for laser eyes.2020-03-2728 minFresh Catch 2.0Not Always Funny - Timu Aku InspiresSend us a textThe ol' "trailing toilet paper" stunt was an important discovery moment for David as he became "back hallway funny" in high school. Dr Dave remembers things a bit differently, centered around a haunting sound bite from Kook & The Gang. And shared memories of one of our favorite shared friends, Tim Atkins, had us giggling like crazy!2020-03-1328 minFresh Catch 2.0Golden Anniversary; Amish "I Love You"Send us a textPood, Pearly, Scrumpy Jack, Bouncer…we daydreamed a bit about having cool nicknames. Then reality set in as David recounted today's quick expression of love to the skilled craftsmen doing chimney repair and Dr. Dave got a bit choked up over the celebration of a pretty amazing life milestone.2020-03-0628 min
