Episode 29 - Steve & Dave vs a 200 lb Gorilla

Jon isn't officially on this one, so the 200 lb gorilla does not refer to him, but to Red West.

We talk a bit about Tokyo Rose.

The running joke that TJ runs his mixture so rich because he sucks is funny.

As with much of the first half of season 2, this one is pretty good!
