Mike goes to the movies for the first time in nearly two years - and spends it with a fat lizard and a big monkey.

Darin explores the Whig party at Kroger, Mike mentions a fear of chickens and never explain...

We answer fan questions - and a ton more! Bonus - Darin has a KISS shirt signed by Slaughter. Did you read that correctly, because clearly you didn't - if you had, you wouldn't be reading THIS, you'd be listening to the #quacking episode!

Finally, we end with listener questions and tribute to a great friend of the show - Don Smith. Check out the rest of our episodes at irritab...
