EP. 195.5 — Sklarbro County 100

Celebrate the tremendous Sklarbro County 100th episode with Earwolf favorite Paul F. Tompkins! Paul classes things up as he tells us how it’s never too late for anything as his life changed after learning how to drive 4 years ago and finally quitting smoking. He also takes us behind the scenes of his monthly Largo show “VARIETOPIA.” It wouldn’t be a County without Daniel Van Kirk bringing in some crazy stories including the return of Where’s the Headline, police hunting “mystery pooper” defecating on park slides in Ypsilanti’s Prospect Park, and Portland flushing 38 million gallons of water from reservoir because a teenager urinated in it. Plus, in honor of the 100th episode, Mark Wahlberg brings his friend from the industry Garry Marshall to talk show biz and the new project they’re working on together!
