Here\'s My ThingHere's My ThingQualified ImmunityQualified Immunity seems to be a lot like that streaming service Quibi in that a lot of people are aware of it, but not many know what it is. I talk about its background, a Reuter’s study, and reference Eric McCormick (co-star of Will & Grace).

The Elkwood Forum had something for everyone. The keyword: had. This story is about a mall before and after the boom of online shopping and a college graduate coming home in a less than optimistic economy. Please excuse my terrible southern accent.

After that, I tell a story of 3 men, jacked men, who reunited when their gym reopened. The video for The Mail will be up tomorrow!

For the main course, I read a short story that I've had in the vault for a bit. It's called "Pegged" and is about my journey to a show, recounting certain things and experiencing others along the way. There are a few variations of the word "peg" used.

The name is temporary, but I like it as it is, I say they keep it. Then for the reading, it was laundry day, which means it was laundry day a couple of days prior. I talk about the lack of discipline in that regard, some of the traits my parents gifted me, chewing big red, and more. Enjoy! Follow the podcast!

It starts with a current events piece, the topic: K-Pop Stans, what are they? How strong are they?

Here, hundreds of other 11-year olds and I learned the specific roles and disciplines of each utensil plate and glass. If I ever told my parents I enjoyed it, I can assure you that it was because I don’t like disappointing people. People would get denied because they came underdressed, I find a slight parallel with the people getting denied at grocery stores for not wearing masks.  @heresmything_ @johnroussosss2020-06-2205 minHere\'s My ThingHere's My ThingThis Isn't FineIt's been a few weeks and the normal social media climate seems to be creeping back in.

When it did in fact rain, people canceled their plans, cars stopped driving, it became a talking point.

And if you follow me on social media you’re on the same page too because my feed would maybe be only portrait-mode photos of her.

I didn't know what condoms looked like at the time, but I knew what marbles looked like. I thought about taking some in-house chopsticks home with me the other day.

The rest of the episode talks about the dying art of the handshake, and how I just recently had the best handshake of my life.  Enjoy!2019-07-2407 minHere\'s My ThingHere's My ThingBlack IceBlack Ice is the official car scent of the lifted Toyota Tacoma and Mazda-3 hatchback.
