What's your view on corporal punishment? Should teachers be allowed to use a machete as punishment? Probably not. That could be considered on the extreme end of the issue. The other extreme is to allow children to stab each other in the halls, which is also not great. So what's the answer? Maybe we should release pythons into schools so students are too busy dodging snakes to misbehave. Solves two problems at once. Learn more about your ad choices.

We're about to get a foot of snow in two days, and you know what that means: Seasonal Affective Disorder. It's hard not to be affected by the season when you're trapped in your house, but that doesn't mean it has to turn into a disorder. Dr. Hammer suggests a daily three minute mindfulness practice. It doesn't require anything but sitting there, which is perfect because that's what we'll all be doing this week anyway. So grab a blanket and a cup of hot chocolate and practice the GAIN Method. For an extra challenge, try it during a snow day when the kids are at home all day. Learn more about your ad choices.

Doug's busy being warm somewhere and the rest of us have to pick up the slack. Unfortunately, none of us know anything about cars, so we call upon the help of Mayor Francis and his many tomes of car-selling knowledge. What he didn't know is that we can't say on track for more than approximately twelve seconds. Something good did come of that though: check in for an explanation of how to listen to Tom's new morning show on Monday, because apparently the communication there has been not so good.

Today we've got Rudy, Brittany, and Amy Daniels joining us in studio to extoll Tom's virtues. Or maybe just the virtues of the upcoming new Tom Barnard Morning Show, starting this Monday. Either way, we eventually get into the topic of who your favorite celebrity you ever met was, and that can't be a coincidence, right? Right: the answer is obviously Michael Berryman, author of It's all good!: A Michael Berryman Memoir... In My Own Words and person you would definitely recognize from something you've watched at some point. Learn more about your ad choices.

If you're a millennial or the parent of a millennial, you probably remember Barney. Mattel is banking on you remembering him fondly, but given how many schoolyard rhymes there are about killing him, they may be barking up the wrong purple dinosaur. This is a reboot, however, so you never know what direction they might take it. What if Barney had an eyepatch and a gun? That could be cool. Learn more about your ad choices.

The term "dive bar" means a lot of things to a lot of people. Is it a positive term? Apparently, yes. These days it is. It's so positive that we can spend a solid half hour talking about them by name without having to worry about being sued for defamation. Unfortunately, Brian couldn't stay long enough to discuss the precise definition of a dive, but he did manage to talk about Icons Unearthed, a series he directs where pop culture icons are examined in never before seen detail. This podcast will surely be getting its own episode any day now.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When you think Frasier, you probably think of the jovial snob from Seattle and his career on KACL 780 AM. But the actor behind that façade has a dark secret: he was cursed by a warlock. Or something. He's had more tragedy in his life than Charlie Brown. Mere bad luck can't explain all of it. Can it? No, it's gotta be a curse. Probably the same curse that every movie theater in America was simultaneously hit with a couple years ago. This is why magic is illegal, people.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Do you remember storytime when you were a kid?  When your parents read books to you?  Well prepare for a wave of nostalgia, because today we're going to read every Wikipedia article for every actor ever born for some reason.  We'll also talk about how unimportant that Grammys are to us and everyone else.  You know what is important though - the big game.  We really need to look up under what circumstances we're allowed to call it its actual name, because "the big game" just sounds so stupid.  Almost as stupid as having fewer wins in your own stadium than at least one other team.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's episode two two two two, which is perfect because today's episode is all about the two party system.  It's bad.  You may have heard that before.  But depending on who you ask, one party is a lot less bad than the other.  Sid and Mike Bryant are both not shy about which party they think that is.  Thing is, they might not agree on the party.  Hijinks, naturally, ensue.

Former KQRS on air personality Ray Erick joins us in studio and we oddly spend an hour talking about cars; the hunt for a '79 Biarritz, the 5-window coupe that almost killed him, the 1955 190 SL that he tried to steal from a collector and his current stable of Pontiacs. Along the way, we veer into radio land including how Ray got his first twin cities broadcasting job when he showed up to apply to drive the Whale for WAYL.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Americans always make a really big deal about presidential elections, but not local ones.  Your governor, mayor, or representative often makes a bigger impact in your life than the president ever will.  So why don't they care?  Especially young people, who seem to think that the president is the only politician in the country.  Yello (not his birth name, if you can believe it) seeks to change this by campaigning to get young people to care about every election as much as the presidential one.  Check out Simplified on YouTube and start voting smarter.  Or, you know, at all.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are a lot of Chinese people, which translates to a lot of Chinese money.  That's money that everyone wants.  It's also a lot of hoops to jump through.  For example, Taiwan is not a country, and if you say it is, you'll be in big trouble.  That's not to say America doesn't have its own quirks.  Here, it's a cultural faux pas to pay a reasonable price for eggs.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
