Your Homework

A Lot Of Nerve

While Spike and Mike are on the Ricky Vacation, they've decided there are some things that you should be responsible for while they're not doing a podcast. In over five years of podcasting, this is probably the most obnoxious thing they've done. I'd like to personally apologize for them. They'll be back next week, and perhaps they'll explain themselves. In any case, here's what they'd like you to do...

Watch Mike's Show Thursday Night

Mike writes for the NBC show Trial & Error, which is in its second season. The episode Mike wrote is Thursday night (tomorrow, today, yesterday, depending on when you're reading this) at 9pm. We'd like for this episode to have the season's highest ratings. We tried this once before with a previous Mike show and it worked. The show has gotten great reviews, and you can binge the first season and the first four episodes of this season here. Don't forget. Put it in your calendar.

Run With Us?

Spike's midlife crisis doesn't involve buying a Corvette or doing anything untoward, it's just helping local shelters save dogs and cats. Maybe he's having an affair with a dog? Anyway, he's running in the Providence AC Bark in The Park on October 27th, and has a Ricky team. Join the team and run with him (or you can walk, no judging). The goal is to raise $4,616 in honor of the date Hinkie resigned. It's admittedly a big goal. If you're not in the area or refuse to exercise, feel free to just donate.

Jahlil Okafor

It's 2018 and the name that shall not be named is still being named in our newsletter. We were never the best at letting anything go ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. We've been posting old podcasts while the show is on vacation, and we just posted the one from Okafor draft night. It's an all-timer. We'll post a few more before we come back.

WAYS TO WASTE TIME AT WORK

This Is Awesome - There's a fella in Jersey who has been battling cancer, and his lifelong hobby has been building this insane model train set. The video is amazing.

Smarter Than Us - Sean Carroll is a theoretical physicist who is a Sixers fan and once appeared on the Ricky. He has his own podcast now.
