316: Dick Tracy & Snow Goose Affair
Summary
The hosts discuss finding old VHS tapes, including a rare commercial featuring the caller’s father alongside NBA rookies Horace Grant and Scottie Pippen. They then advise a listener to create an "About Me" board featuring an obsession with the 1990 film Dick Tracy to avoid unwanted office attention. Finally, they help a boat educator convince her grumpy captain to accept a new vessel by creating a video that tarnishes the old boat’s reputation while highlighting the new one’s benefits.
