Don't worry about feeling stupid - self admitted simpletons Mike and Jennifer have that covered for you. Each week, we analyze and dissect the stupidities we sometimes ignore (or, worse yet, begrudgingly accept) in everyday existence.
The 2 stupidest people you listen to are back early! This week, Jen and Mike will discuss things that they looked forward to but were disappointing... including albums (Use Your Illusion 1 & 2 anyone?), movies (Downton Abbey.. El Camino), TV shows (particularly, later seasons.. like Dexter), as well as Jen's cooking (nobody wants this...) and a whole lot more!
