Episode 473: Soda Pop Hall of Fame with Nick Wiger

[there were ads on this one but you didnt hear them because you crashed your car into another dummy]

You ever hang out with a kid who’s really excited to show you his toys and it’s like, to you, the toys are just kind of boring crap, but you play along because obviously it means a lot to him and he doesn’t really understand that you have much better stuff to do? At a certain point, you’ve been pretending for so long that you catch yourself getting actually into it a little bit, but then the kid ends up taking a big smelly dump in his pants and you can tell it’s time to go. Later, in the car, you’re really thankful you don’t have to clean up that shit. It smelled really bad. And the kid didn’t even seem to notice. He must do this a lot.

Anyway, on today’s episode of AuGuest, we showed our friend Nick Wiger some Kickstarters.  

Do yourself a flavor and listen to Nick on Doughboys and Get Played. Now that’s what I call, Munchie Madness!

Sorry, didn’t get to listen until today. The word JF was looking for is anachronism.

Baseball gotta be the worst sport for the Bra League idea. One slide into second and you'd be out for the season

Solid choice to cut Mitch’s audio so that he continues to not be on the podcast, very good bit.

That Mitch phone-in was fascinating - I never knew that about the Holocaust.

Him finally admitting he hates Boston was something.
