PLA ROCKS!

On the last 2 episodes, I’ve run a little short on time (I really prefer to keep shows under 30 minutes) so I didn’t play any voicemails. I still listen to all the voicemails and will play the least suckiest of them on future shows. So call in your comments to (505) 796-4020 or leave a comment on our contact page.

Yes, good episode for sure. Not as hilarious as the Walmart one, but definitely good. Loved the Richard Cardo tie in. Thanks for the continued entertainment as always.

Laughed my ass off on that KFC call. How come you’re hardly putting out any new PLA podcasts?
