ATHWC Season 2 Episode 50 BB Redux or where are they now
*there's a slight echo in spots, I did what I could to remove or minimize it*
It's always good to catch up with dear friends. Wendy and Mike are certainly no exception. I couldn't think of a better way to wrap up such a milestone event as episode 50 of season 2. A few years ago, when I started this little venture, I could scarcely believe I'd make it this far. Mike is the reasin Wendy got started and Wendy is the reason I am here today doing something I love. So... like me or hate me, blame Wendy.
We spent time catching up on where we've been since my final episode with Brass Balls Radio back in 2010 ish. I could never have asked for a better boss lady. Thank you for everything Wendy.

ATHWC Season 2 Episode 36 23 Skiddoo
It's the end of an era, or at least a year any way. There were highs and lows as with anything else. Some highs were really high and some lows were, well really low.
The title comes from :
23 skidoo is an American slang phrase generally referring to leaving quickly, being forced to leave quickly by someone else, or taking advantage of a propitious opportunity to leave. Popularized during the early 20th century, the exact origin of the phrase is uncertain. Wikipedia
I thought it fitting for how quickly we all want to see 2022 leave.

AHWC Season 2 Episode 29 "Beware the Man"
This episode will rankle some feathers. For that, I am truly sorry. It is, as they say, what it is.
Beware the man with nothing left to lose. For he is a most dangerous animal. Having had everything removed from his life, what else is there to keep him in check?
I may need to revisit this topic again in the near future. It's a rather interesting one, don't you think?
So I don't misquote the bible verse:
God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it (1 Corinthians 10:13).
