EP. 163.5 — Sklarbro County 68
Comedy’s Ron Babcock is game for all the insanity that occurs on today’s Sklarbro County! Ron tells us about coming up in comedy in Phoenix, his web-show Why Would You Eat That? Challenge, and feeling accomplished after appearing on episode 69 of a podcast that featured interviews with pornstars. Daniel Van Kirk is here as well with the usual County goodness which includes stories of a Bellingham man who fired an arrow wrapped with marijuana at Whatcom County Jail, a Tennessee woman who was hospitalized after hiding $5,000 where the sun don’t shine, and a Florida woman being robbed after a night of bowling with her friends. Then, Doug Buffone returns to describe how tough it was for him when he played for the Chicago Bears. Make sure to check out Daniel Van Kirk’s NFL column over at cover32.com!
