Joe List came over to tell me about his years working theft prevention at a Sears outside Boston. These are great stories about being exactly my enemy at one of my passions, shoplifting.
Put this podcast down and go right now to watch Joe's new standup special, "I Hate Myself" on YouTube now.
And check out his podcasts, "Tuesdays With Stories" and "Mindful Metal Jacket"

It was their life's mission to sponsor a podcast where a comic talks about ways around paying for things from stores that went out of business due to too much loss from shoplifting. I've done right by my guidance counselor, Mrs Rabinowitz. She said she believed in me despite what my efforts showed and now she's right. RIP.
Boston is home to the Super Beef Threeway.
