Mood Rings, Psychic Fish, and Questionable TV Team-ups
RSS Feed Jeff, powered by three Red Bulls and a questionable sense of purpose, drags Chris into a deep dive on 70s/80s TV — an era when undercover cops thought driving a bright red muscle car or a jet-black van with a giant red stripe was the pinnacleof subtlety.
They take no prisoners as they rip apart:
Cracker Jack prizes devolving from actual metal toys to “here’s a paper cutout, go cry in the corner.”
