Summary

On episode #145, Jethro kicks things off with tales of tails - and other animal parts. Seems like the basic human need to smuggle living things from country to country is not only illegal and can result in prison time, but a rodent in your pants can cause other issues. Be glad you’re not a TSA agent as you listen to these stories. Then Lindsay regales us with the story of an inventive woman who needed some quick cash to pay her probation court fees. She came up with the perfect idea – forgetting that people actually can and do check their credit card activity from time to time. Wanna turn a simple misdemeanor into a full-fledged felony?

0:53.1	And I said, so what time are we
0:55.6	going to be getting to the studio? And you said, ah, 430, 430 a.m. usually. And I said, so after a while,
1:05.2	that gets easy? And you said, no, it never gets easy. You just get used to it. And every single time I do this Godforsaken
1:13.8	hike I have in this canyon where Nancy and I live, I get to one particular point in this hike

1:26.3	somebody's forcing me to do this.
1:28.0	I like the cardio.
1:29.1	I like the heavy exercise part of this hike.
