Summary
This week on the podcast the Bayer siblings are thrilled to welcome their friend Derek Waters! You may know Derek co-created the beloved show "Drunk History", but did you know he and Vanessa are in a Fantasy Football league together where the first Todd has stirred some major controversy? Plus Vanessa scores a big win by having a confirmed a memory about the Bangles/Bengles, and the group ruminates on who will be the next drummer of Derek's favorite band, Pearl Jam (maybe Vanessa?) And Derek delights us with his memories (and actual copies) of TV Guide magazines and we get into the plots of some pretty insane Movies of The Week listed inside. We also dive deep into how Derek came up with the idea for Drunk History! And in a delightful game of CHANGE DOT DORK, we're debating the return of Tangy Pickle Doritos, turning "peanut butter" into one word, and bringing back Drunk History! Ya gotta check out this hilarious episode!
