Summary

Due to a family emergency, we present a classic Shallow End Episode from Feb. 15, 2023. Next week, we'll have a new episode for you that is fresh from the podcast oven. A reminder from Jethro that it's always a good idea to know what the potential fallout from a planned theft could be. But sometimes things happen that one just can't anticipate. The results are tragically hilarious. Then Lindsay has the recent tale of how one man's behavior ruined his Superbowl experience this year. Warning! The Shallow End may contain peanuts and wheat gluten. If you would like to advertise on The Shallow End with Schnebly and Toth, contact [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.
