Captain Ahab (host) 10:53:00 AM
french fries, interesting, hadn't heard that combo but if theyre nice and crispy then sounds great
Jim Otter 10:53:07 AM
Tortas are the thing to get at east coast Mexican places
Captain Ahab (host) 10:53:47 AM

Jim Otter 10:54:39 AM

Captain Ahab (host) 11:19:04 AM

Matt Sabbath 11:19:27 AM
HAAAAAAAAAA omg 😍🦝 I can't 😍
torn hawk 11:19:43 AM
joe rogan giving the play by play
Matt Sabbath 11:19:58 AM
Why did they wash it? The chemicals are the best part. Too sharp, those raccoons..
Captain Ahab (host) 11:20:23 AM
gotta wash all your fruits and veggies before consumption
torn hawk 11:21:11 AM
isnt cotton candy just heated spun sugar? chemicals ?
Matt Sabbath 11:21:19 AM
My buddy in Nebraska (who is a Desert Cruising fan!) has a backyard pond cam and there are basically mosh pits of mammals (and marsupials) on some nights
Matt Sabbath 11:21:55 AM

Captain Ahab (host) 11:22:26 AM

"what obscure version of dopesmoker can we play next?"
Matt Sabbath 11:30:21 AM
Haaaaaaa!
Captain Ahab (host) 11:30:49 AM
hard to beat the 900% version though
Matt Sabbath 11:31:13 AM
I mean it's impressive Ahab, you are still ABD but already invented a new unit of time, the Dopesmoker
Captain Ahab (host) 11:31:22 AM
"Strangely decently listenable, and yet even this bullet train to the holy land, for the modern busy life, is still too long for most radio play, lol"
Captain Ahab (host) 11:31:28 AM
still love that youtube comment
Matt Sabbath 11:31:37 AM
and it is a VARIABLE unit of time 🤯
Matt Sabbath 11:31:55 AM
That is a great blurb
