The conversation about what to do about guns and mass shooters has intensified after two tragedies killed 31 in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio.  The president has signaled that he wants to do something, but has offered no specifics and is getting warnings from the NRA to be careful or alienate his supporters.  Ginger Gibson, political reporter for Reuters joins us for where the 2020 Democrats stand on gun violence and who is the front runner after the second round of debates. Next, a great story of how scorned women and a cop nicknamed Casanova caught the infamous ‘Dine-and-Dash Dater' in Los Angeles.  Paul Gonzales would meet women on dating apps, invite them out to top restaurants for dinner and order lavish meals, and a lot of it too.  Then he would excuse himself to the bathroom and never come back, leaving the women with the bill and full of embarrassment.  Jeff Maysh, writer and journalist, caught up with Paul Gonzales and tells us what going through his mind and why he did what he did. Part of it was that only fine foods could make him feel better from his physical ailments. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com

It’s Friday and the Dudes are gonna tell you all about how a man’s life got flipped turned upside down. And we'd like to take a minute, just sit right there … we’ll tell you how Rob Rotten became the offender of L.A. Ben Affleck is attached to direct and Matt Damon to star in a true-crime story.  We’re wondering if this is the safe pic, the art pic or the payback pic because a friend told them they owed him a favor. (Points if you get the reference) The story was written by Jeff Maysh and published in The Daily Beast, about an ex-cop who rigged the McDonald’s Monopoly game, allegedly stealing over $24 million and sharing it with an unsavory group of co-conspirators who offered kickbacks to the mastermind.  The Dudes tell you the story about Jerome Jacobson, who was the mastermind behind screwing millions of potential winners out of the big prizes back in the day. Legendary actor Alan Alda has come out with a shocking admission, he has Parkinson’s Disease.  Alda appeared on CBS This Morning to talk about announcing his condition and what he’s doing about it.  You may remember him from various projects, like The West Wing … but to Nick and Rob, he’ll always be Hawkeye Pierce from M*A*S*H.

This week, it’s url leaching into irl, as we talk about internet nonsense worming its way into normie discourse. First up, Qanon, the sprawling 4chan conspiracy theory that has melted the brains of too many of your neighbors, who are now convinced that Trump and Robert Mueller are bravely battling the deep state against the Democrats’ cabal of child sex satan worship. And that’s not all: cryptid erotica has made its way into a Virginia political race, right-wing Youtuber Jordan Peterson’s daughter Mikhaila is hawking a beef-only diet, and liberal weirdos Brian and Ed Krassenstein wrote a book explaining Trump’s sexual misdeeds to children. In pop culture, we’re recounting Jeff Maysh’s story of Jerome Jacobsen, the ex-cop who rigged McDonald’s Monopoly game, how Netflix movies are today’s straight-to-video films, and the DC premiere of Dinesh D’Souza’s ridiculous revisionist documentary, Death of a Nation. For story time, Dan will tell you a showbiz tale from his days working on the short-lived Food Network show Sweet Genius.

Jeff Maysh wrote one of Howler’s best-loved stories, about the West Ham fan who heckled his way onto the field for his favorite team in a pre-season friendly back in 1994. Now he’s back to discuss his latest story for Howler, about an equally colorful character: Cyril the Swan and the man behind the beak. Cyril may have helped save Swansea City when it was on the brink of dropping out of professional football in the late 1990s, and his antics made him a bonafide celebrity. Then he was arrested.
