Summary

Chris gets a sick satisfaction from reading old WhatsApp messages from Francesca, an Italian girl who used to live next door (he’s going to hell for this). We call Brandon Novak (Jackass). We play a voice memo from Andrew from Philly about the time he blacked out on Xanax and woke up feeling like he was ”hit by a bus,” with no posessions except for a ”Christian book.” Andrew now has two years clean and is doing well. We read a reddit message from someone who used to smoke crack with his parents and accidently drank his dad’s piss. And lastly, but no leastly, we play an awesome ’Theme Song Challenge’ entry from Cormac!

1:03.0	Did you ever see the Woodstock movie? No. Well, there's one of my... I lived the Woodstock movie because I've watched it so many times. In college, I'd watch it like twice a day or something. And Arlo Guthrie, have you ever heard of him?

1:29.0	You know, half a million people, 300,000 people. And he goes, wow, man, far out, man. This is a trip, man. He says, New York State Through A's Close, man. You sound like a cheat.
1:44.0	Whenever, whenever me and my family drive up state, which we're about to do for our big trip upstate, as soon as we got on the New York State Through A, I go, New York State Through A's Close, man. And I just, I don't stop saying that. And Linda's like, please, just stop saying that.
2:03.0	But the New York State Through A's Close, man, I just love that shit. We got to find that.
