Welcome to Episode 110: House of Wax (2005). Forget the football game! Put down that video camera, pick up your lip balm, and join us in Ambrose. It’s not on the map, but we were able to find it.

It looks a lot like my podcast partner but that can’t be him can it? I wonder where the real Mike went. The lights in town all just came on. Maybe I can find someone to help me. I’m the meantime, listen today, wherever podcasts can be heard.
