Berg's Hanukkah Bush

We're back with original content! It being the first day of Hanukkah as this episode is released, it is safe to assume that it gets covered as a topic....sort of.

Not to worry, we tangent quite a bit. As always, listen and enjoy.

The boys are back with a guest! That's right. It's been a while since someone new showed up and we quickly find out why that is with the traditional three questions and some razzing. We then delve into college football and football in general with Ray Rice. Then Berg is super happy to get to talk about the new star wars trailer. We end with some black friday talk.

Define Road Trip

Everyone is back after a week hiatus due to travel and killing an elk. We immediately begin giving each other a hard time which segways nicely into a D Rose injury/bet update. Then we continue the previous episodes nerdiness by discussing the new Star Wars title and end up ranking the titles from best to worst, needless to say we can only agree on one thing....the worst. Finally there are two topics that spawn spirited debates, the college football playoff ranking and system followed by defining a road trip and each of our esstentials.

Missing Something

The whole crew is back for the new show. Though we may all be physically present we are not all here as it is obvious from the start.

Food, Booze, and Boobs

The whole crew of Funny Idiots is back for the all new episode. We convene after an evening celebrating Berg's Bday with the title description. Though not to the extent of the General's festivities last week we do have a good time. Speaking of last week, the general has a gripe with Berg form his dirty 30 party.

Circling the Drain

So....the guys are here but not all here. The show's title says it all. Not that we are going down the drain in subject matter, but that we are really off on this show. With the General recovering from the odyssey that was his dirty 30 bday party and the rest of us being massively unprepared to record the episode reflects those facts.

Fingered Repeatedly

Every so often we do a show and I'm left with no desire to actually type up a description. I could make a funny paragraph explaining that this is the paragraph and leave it at that.
