ML is STILL recovering from high school, so why is he going to his 40th class reunion this weekend? Marc and special guest Tresa Baldas share some of their most vivid memories from their school daze.



STRAIGHT DOPE: You might think with his affection for New Wave music, and his 1985 Buick Riviera, that high school was the best days of ML’s life. Not so. Nevertheless, he is looking forward to attending the 40th class reunion of his alma mater, Grosse Pointe South High School, this weekend. Listen and learn why.

While Marc somehow stayed one step ahead of the law in high school, ML almost got banned from graduation after getting caught pulling a senior prank. He tells all about it – including how the punishment could have exposed him to a lethal dose of toxic material.



Unlike her husband, Tresa was popular in high school and got along with everyone. But she was haunted by a feeling she didn’t quite belong. She tells all about it.

ML says being an unpopular dick in high school helped prepare him for his career as an investigative reporter. Find out why.



Tresa says one of her classmates was so hot even the blind girl knew he was a stud. ML is not impressed.
