Hey, would you look at that, a new episode of Tele-Friends. Guys, it's been too long. We're back and we're talkin' chicken wings, Nicktoons, Ace of Base, and much much more.  Seriously, way more. We got some good calls for this one. 

In this episode, we're playing the calls intended to scare Bo to death. Or that was the idea.  

What happens when two people continue being polite, but stop taking calls (for a moment) and start getting real? This. This is what happens.  Join the Tele-Friends for a rollicking discussion on everyone's favorite topic: mental health!

In this episode, we're dealing with fast food, y'all. We're driving thru. We're talkin' tacos, burgers, french fries, and shakes. We visit with our man in the field. We take it to the Taco Bell Cantina. We're all over the place. (304) 518-JAMS. Leave a message.

The Tele-Friends are back! That's right: Bo and Casey, after like a 10-month hiatus, are back in the studio, taking your calls and playing the messages you leave at (304) 518-JAMS. But for this first episode, they have a bit of a backlog to get through. Featuring as always theme music courtesy of Ta-Ku, and incidental music from Future Kitsune.

Right in the middle of the show, Bo decided to hold a blind Mountain Dew taste test with Casey as the subject. It was fun, but it didn’t really *sound* like anything. Only one excerpt was salvageable, and it’s kind of gross.
