When we have a comedian in from another state, we tend to either talk about their state or our state.  Today is the latter, perhaps because Minnesota is rife with secrets only its denizens know.  Or perhaps because when people come here and don't see snow and polar bears they get confused.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hawaii.  Sandy beaches.  Coconuts.  Longhorns.  Cowboys.  Wait, really?  Yes really.  Turns out when you put a herd of 10,000 grass-eating behemoths on an island made of sand and rock, they start to misbehave.

When you think "gigantic python", you probably also wonder who you can call to have it taken as far away as possible.  That person is Dusty.  It should be noted that he only kills pythons that eat things they're not supposed to.  He's like the Judge Dredd of snakes.

Our society is in trouble.  You've probably been hearing that every day for the past 50 years.  This time we actually have proof, though - skyrocketing homeless populations, drugs, and violent crime that nobody will do anything about have rendered many major cities unlivable unless you don't mind paying $3000 a month to rent a studio apartment you use to rest off your stab wounds.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
