  1. Charlie Berens definitely represents us Wisconsinites well. He started with the Manitowoc Minute and he is so spot on with us Midwesterners. OPE!. LOL I went to visit my daughter after she moved from Wisconsin to Durham and I asked her to swing by the gas station after she picked me up at the airport because I wanted to have some cocktails to sit out by the pool. Well you can't buy alcohol on Sundays . Seriously WTF? 😳That would not fly in Wisconsin… We have no rules to follow in Wisconsin. See you at the Pabst Theatre in April!!

  2. Unfortunately I live in southern Ohio. A neighbor invited me to join her christian bible study group. At my hesitation she informed me that they even have a few Catholics. I said I thought Catholics were the “original” christians. I declined, yeah, no.

  3. Utah liquor laws make me laugh at the same time my head explodes. I would have to write down the rules (or rewind Pubcast) before going. You would have to stock up on Miller Lite some places. I wonder if Utahns have it memorized or carry lists around. Remember, we have to chug our drinks at this restaurant because it’s not on the “carry through” list. Ack! Do different universities have different rules? Can’t imagine surviving college on a dry campus. They sure know how to suck the fun out & confuse the hell out of us 24 hour drinkers.

  4. Thank you for putting this up early! Now I can watch the pubcast before Survivor, and maybe actually remember what goes on here. Listening in bed is too soothing…
    I'm 77, only have antennae up here in the HIGH DESERT of AZ.

  5. Yes, we hate the same things in the NFL – Queen (not worthy of King) Rodgers & the Cowboys. My biggest NCAA hate (and NFL player intro) is THE Ohio State University. May they never win again. Their alumni are nuts, not in the same way as Eagles fans are nuts but both make me scream. 🤬

  6. OK, whole “not dead yet” part aside, do they really donate organs from people who “die” from a drug overdose? I don’t want the liver of someone who was an& drug user. Maybe that’s being picky, but let’s have some standards! How good do you think any organs are from that guy? He might not even remember signing up to be a donor. Well, good news is we found you a heart, bad news it’s probably not going to last long because of this overdose glitch. Why the hell didn’t the sister speak up when she saw his eyes darting around?

    Are you doing anything special for the 200th Pubcast?
    Can you share if you’ve used your Lodge cast iron skillet with the Dolly P butterfly?
    Thank you for doing the benefit at the Ryman for hurricane disaster relief.

  9. Us Catholics certainly have the Saints in our corner! I’ve been known to enlist the aid of St Anthony to find whatever I’ve lost. He’s got a 98% record so far!!! Love Babycat’s visit. Mama T & Paddles are my entire Wednesday evenings. Every week! Loved all of your shorts. Driving thru the foliage was great. It’s one of the things I miss now that I’m in Colorado. Park City is one of my favorite places in the summer. So many things to do. “Park Silly Sundays” is one of my must-go’s every summer. 4th of July is awesome, too. Have a great week, from one Kathleen to another (spelled correctly with a K).

  10. Cats are fiercely loving to their people, could never understand why folks , esp dog owners, crap on cats so much. Cats are not small dogs, they don't like rough horseplay or pets like dogs. Cats are tender and sensitive when their people are sick, had one that would bring my her toys to sleep with until I was better. My cats were the hearing cats ( I wear hearing aids) who told me if someone was at the door or weird sounds. Had one cat who heard a large tree breaking and I was clueless washing my car. Every time I got too close to that tree he would block my path and kept pushing me back to his determined safe region until suddenly the 15 ft long giant oak branch safely fell. Bonus No need to bath, cut hair, restrict food, and no walks just a every few days litter box scoop out. Bonus, cats love attention but like adults want some alone time.

  11. Chiming in as someone working at Cracker Barrel, we now serve alcohol in some restaurants but aren't allowed to serve alcohol unless food is ordered. One time this guy orders alcohol, I tell him he has to order food, he lies and says he is still deciding, downs the beer when I went into the kitchen and runs out of the restaurant. I can't remember if my manager caught up to him or not but geez, that was pretty funny 😂

  12. South Carolina no longer has mini bottles, unfortunately. I hate it because since they stopped them, I haven't caught a buzz in a bar. Mini bottles are so much better because you get the same amount of liquor each time, and they can't be watered down.

  14. Just FYI…used to drive a big rig, and I swear to the goddess that there are Bigfoot (bigfeet?) in the mountains of northwestern Arkansas. Saw one, middle of the night…eating road kill on the side of the road. Thought it was a wolf until I got closer and it stood up ON TWO LEGS AND WALKED INTO THE FOREST!!! Scouts honor ✋🏼

  15. 💓the hurricane cat story!🐯: Sanctuary? Where?? I'd be worried about anything like that in the home country of those tigers. What kind of habitat supports those big cats? Hard to find/replicate? BIG 🦶-WOW! Scary, but still. Frozen 🦶: Whoa!! Crazy! 💕 Have a Great Halloween Mamma T and P! 🤗Ms. P

  17. Born and raised Mo in SLC and went back to the U when I was 37 and I’m pretty sure the football team did not get that memo.

    I realized just how weird our laws were when I was getting married and said I needed to go to the liquor store to get wine and the rest of the alcohol before it closed on Saturday night. My cousin from California said not to worry about it and we could just go to Walmart later. It took me at least 5 minutes to explain to her how alcohol sales work here and that Walmart was not an option. Her exact response was, “I’d drop everything and F-ing move”. She’s also Catholic and from the Midwest, so it was especially upsetting for her.

    The barriers were actually called “Zion Curtains” and were required to keep curious Mormons from being tempted.

    I saw you in Wendover and can’t wait for you to come do a show out here again!
