    In this episode of the Big Bad Broadcast, John and Mike dive into a variety of topics ranging from politics to personal anecdotes. We kick off the show with a light-hearted jab at each other, particularly focusing on John’s sometimes rude demeanor. We express our gratitude to our friends in the entertainment industry, including Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling and Tommy Chong, and share some humorous insights about the current political landscape, particularly regarding Trump and his views on education. The conversation shifts to our own educational experiences, with Mike recounting his journey through community college and John sharing stories about his children’s college experiences, including the surprising rise of the University of Northern Florida. As we reminisce about our youth, we reflect on the pressures of high school sports and the rigorous schedules that young athletes face. Mike shares a funny story about his son’s football experience, while John reflects on his own college days, filled with mischief and a lack of focus. The episode takes a personal turn as I share my recent vacation to the Dominican Republic, where I encountered both the beauty of the resort and the chaos of a family-friendly atmosphere. We laugh about the absurdity of seeing 300-pound women in thongs and the challenges of enjoying a vacation amidst rowdy crowds. We also discuss the importance of family connections, particularly through sports, and how our experiences with our fathers have shaped our relationships with our own children. The episode wraps up with a discussion about the ups and downs of dental visits and the quirks of life, all while maintaining our signature humor and camaraderie. Join us for a fun and engaging episode filled with laughter, personal stories, and a bit of nostalgia! It's The Big Bad Broadcast - Had Some Fun, Gotta Run...
