They were on Behind the Bastards for KISSINGER and they were very funny.

I’m listening to that now and had to turn it off at work because I was laughing so hard.

Got any more great Dollop recs I might have missed? I’m a more recent convert - past few years or so, so anything before then :)

Some of my favorites that come to mind:

  • Ten Cent Beer Night
  • The Cereal Men
  • Carry A Nation
  • Ronald Reagan
  • The Mad Gasser
