Getting Jaxxed Up or: Scotch Scotch Scotch

Salutations™!! This week on The Less Desirables, I was without my work-wives Tracy (illness) and Bethany (vacay) and brought in the fantastic Jax who brought five Scotch Whisky brands for us to taste and try.

That Food Thing or: The Rant

Salutations™!! This week on The Man Who Ate the Town, I go on a rant about anti-vaxxers. Yeah, I don’t do a lot of political things and this rant isn’t about politics. I know people on both sides of the aisle that are refusing to get it. I’m sure they have their reasons but, still……
