On this week's show we discuss musical instruments...then get distracted and talk about a bunch of other stuff! We start with the Cwrth and glass harmonica, then digress into how easy (or not easy) it was to invent stuff back in the 1700s and how tall would you get if you grew up in zero gravity.
This week we continue our discussion of mascots, focusing on the sports mascots! Why does baseball have 3 mascots with a baseball for a head? Why is the Rockies mascot a triceratops? Is there anything more terrifying than San Diego's new supervillain Boltman?
This week it's all about the corporate mascots as we discuss the unusual ("Hey Kool-Aid!"), the weird (did anyone like Mr. Six?) and the downright helpful (Smokey the Bear, Woodsy Owl and McGruff the Crime Dog).
This week we look at the awe-inspiring world of corporate sponsorship in sports. Would you buy the Official Wild Bird Seed of the Big 10? Why is Peyton Manning shilling for Papa John? Plus, we have every technical issue under the sun!
It's a special episode of The Goldilocks Zone where Matt and Shaun tell a mystery story completely off the top of their heads. Look for appearances by: Brian the Union Guy, Dallas DA Cassie Thompson, a locked ottoman full of blood, Russian cosmonaut spies, and much more!
