Wingin’ It #67: Voicemail Show

On this week’s show: Mike; Mike’s wife; Evo, played by Jack Mangan; and Jack Mangan, played by Joe Murphy.

Chris from Tempe is the studio audience for this week. Have you noticed that, not unlike Clark Kent and Superman, Chris and Eliza are never in the studio at the same time?

Only two episodes away: Episode 69. Huh-huh.

Jack and Chris have seen Pirates of the Carribean 2: Dead Man’s Chest. Jack gives it a thumbs up.

First Drink of the Day: Magnum’s got a lot of new shit in. Grotten Brown Cave-aged Ale (aka Grottenbier Bruin) from Pierre Celis’ signature selection. Joe’s having an Ale-8-One sent to us by James Wright.

Con-Servations pt 4

When Karen from Kalifornia and Smokin’ Joe show up as the party is winding down with not one but TWO growlers in hand, the party just kinda starts all over again. And I seriously debate skipping the next morning’s panels.
