Oh my gosh, hi, it's me, Dave Holmes.

Welcome to Troubled Waters.

The show that treats popular culture is the most important kind of culture because, well,

it's the kind of culture that has Barbie in it.

To this end, Troubled Waters pits a pair of entertainers against one another in a pop culture battle to the ego death.

To win this battle, each guest will be called upon to use their smarts, their rhetorical skills, the great

comebacks they wish that they had said in the moment to earn the coveted troubled waters

title, Pundit Emeritus, which will automatically give their opinion on that weird X that

Elon Musk thinks is going to be what Twitter's called now.

It looks like the worst new bar nightclub in North

Hollywood. Anyway, more weight than a civilians. You are listening to Troubled Waters. Let us meet our guests.

Our first contestant hosts the show's Depression Mode and sleeping with celebrities right here on Maximum Fun.

It's John Moe. How are you, John?

Dave, I am well. Thank you so much for having me.

It is such a delight to have you here. How is your life? How is your summer of 2023?

You know, it's roostingly hot here in the upper Midwest because we have this tremendous

temperature range from like minus 27 in the winter to 100 or so in the summer.

So this is the, we're now in the time of year where you can't imagine snow ever

existing.

And then about six months will be in the time where you can't imagine grass being

on the ground because it's all ice otherwise.

Yeah.
