    'BANG BANG GIMME MONEY!' Kirstyn looks like a jellyfish and all roads lead to Bob's Burgers for Jeramie. This recording session was just a string of technical difficulties but we still kicked a home run in the slam dunk. This week, Kirstyn decided not to do a murder and just rob banks instead and Jeramie continues his saga of Adelaide bullshit with another kidnapping/disappearance. As usual, we get hung up on the wrong details of these cases and spend far too long trying to figure out the difference between a robbery and how to react when you see a cat in public. Topics include: stranger danger, coffee names, the roles we'd each play in a slasher flick and an exorbitant number of dogstumes. We will be taking a brief break for a couple weeks but don't miss us too much - we will be back.
