I will always remember the Moynihan arrest story as I totaled my Mazda CX-5 while listening to it.

Preach, Scott M.! It's exactly how I felt when I found TFC.

Congratulations on 8 years, grateful for so much back catalogue to still go through.

Great work guys, except the Free Press event is in Dallas, not Austin. We have lots of inner rivalry down here in Texas.

Thank you for posting the Scott M. email, and to Scott M. for writing it. I just re-listened to that segment and it, of course, is absolute fire.

Happy podcast birthday and congrats on eight years, lads! No witty or snarky comment to add, just love.

Congrats on the 8th Anniversary! You guys have saved my sanity on more than one occasion. Thanks. I raise my glass to you (unfortunately, at the moment it contains only fizzy water—hope you’re drinking something better).

Speaking of Fat Joe, back when I was in junior high, we had a classmate from the Dominican who was quite the class clown. One day, he was singing Fat Joe's song "lean back" while simultaneously leaning back in his chair. He was a large fellow, and after a few repeats of "lean back....lean back...lean back" he proceeded to lean too far back, causing the chair to shoot out from underneath him, sending him tumbling down like Humpty Dumpty. Those were the days.
