The name keeps no secrets. Brad and Dale host a collection of interviews with friends of a certain age that have lived some life and have a few stories to tell. The hope is to elicit some humor, wisdom, and reflection - all in the spirit of storytelling and posterity for their own people.
Patrick O'Hara: Farms, Justice, and Martina McBride
Brad and Dale reap the nuggets of wisdom from Western Oklahoma's finest son, Patrick O'Hara. The range includes the Elk City mascot, female country artists from the 1990s, how to use the phrase "soft focus", legal proceedings, and his new found passion for officiating weddings (he's really good at it).
Enjoy the rap session. His country drawl is smoother than Jodee Messina's high notes.

Jamie Adamson: Preschool Acquaintance
One of our besties (as the kids say) comes on the pod to talk how crucial he was to solving the Y2K problem, IT changes over time, why he can't sit down and just relax, pre-school memories (or lack therof), and local OKC celebrities. Sit back, ask Jamie to program your VCR, and enjoy.
