There was a storm surge while JD, Erich and "Jamie" were at the dive bar. They rode it out talking about the most expensive song they found on the bar's touch tunes.
Then, this is not what Erich had envisioned for PKFC!
There was some roughhousing on the patio this past week that made the town news… Erich, as the commissioner of the Porch Karate Fighting Championship (PKFC) addresses the rumors and explains why it's important to make sure your Karate Porch Fight is PKFC sanctioned… He also explains the do's and don't of being a PKFC referee.
Porch Karate Sanctioning:
3 tiers of Porch Karate...
Patio Karate - For the youngsters… If they're at the bar with a fake ID or you're 65 and been drinking for 42 years.. you get the patio.
Porch Karate - Mid 20s and brink of weighing 200 lbs, you're porch karate material!
Roof Karate - If you have really good heritage and genetics, you might get roof karate…
When someone tells you to calm down, does it work?
The show wraps up with a debate regarding the fights Erich, JD, and Jamie would like to see on the White House lawn and how de-escalation techniques between opposite sexes differ. It's the podcast episode America has been begging for, it's Tales From A Dive Bar.
