Hello Sneakers! Ian and Dave have a big problem this week and its name is Valentine’s Day! Yes, the boys are big babies and don’t like the added pressure of huge commercial conglomerates forcing them to buy cards and chocolates. But do you know who loves it? Their wives. I don’t see this ending well. Also, on this week’s show: Ian reveals that he and David are going bald; Ian likes Christmas carols at any time other than Christmas; Dave’s bosses are weird; Dave likes curling; they have some Dr. Suess-related sushi jokes for you (you’ve been waiting for that, right?) (Wrong???); Ian had a terrible experience with clam chowder; Dave looks exactly the same as he did when he left high school, according to Ian (this is not true); finally, let’s take a trip down memory lane to Ian and Dave’s high school: Dave has some stories and Ian wasn’t there. Oh, and bus rides.
Thanks for listening!

Dave’s viewpoints on Valentine’s Day – ALL WRONG. Signed, Dave’s wife.
Minus World is a reference to a glitch found way back in the original super mario bros game. You could do something that caused the game to mess up, and it’d teleport you to an endless underwater level where you couldn’t escape or win, and would just die after running out of time.
The name comes from the fact that when the level loads, it shows that you were on “World -1” (as opposed to World 6, for instance)
Thanks Mike! I think I knew that once but forgot it. Even the best underwater levels of Mario are the worst, an endless one… gah!
I was so bad at the underwater levels and spent so much time dying on them, the music is still burned into my brain some 25~ years later and will spontaneously emerge at really awkward moments, like work meetings etc or dates with cute girls
Hey fellas, actually there is air rifle and air pistol in the summer Olympics at various ranges from the targets, as well as shotgun skeet shooting. They are about as well covered usually as the hammer toss sadly.
Thank you, Nathan. I should have known that as my daughters competed in Tetrathlon for a number of years and a component of that was shooting with air pistols. Ten marks off my dad grades!
When younger people don’t remember things from decades ago, rub in the fact that they missed out on something SO AMAZING (even if it’s not true).
Just wait till I turn 32 and everyone laughs at me! I’ll feel your pain!
Thirty-two?????
