The post office is in the news! Apparently this past week was the deadline for getting Christmas packages mailed on time. News to us. Then, a local worker was indicted for stealing mail and cashing citizens’ checks.  They didn’t steal the COVID vaccine though — that arrived safely and was already shot into a Kansas City nurse.  

No one was shot at the D.C. Stop the Steal rally, but 33 people were arrested. Another 33 people were ticketed in Ontario for private gatherings, and apparently 33% of Michigan restaurant operators think they’ll be closed in 6 months.

Richard DeLisi, a Florida cannabis prisoner serving a 90-year-sentence, was released this past week. His family racked up $330,000 in attorney fees and collect calls over the 31 years he served. The National Institute on Drug Abuse once again awarded a federal contract to the University of Missouri so they can grow weed for federal research. They have been the sole holder of the contract since 1968.  Massachusetts dispensaries will be able to sell hemp now — but only from state licensed growers. 

We got tons of great voicemails sharing first time I ever went camping stories and a few tales of the first time bowlers ever smoked a cigarette. Next week, our FTIE will be the first time I ever listened to No Agenda.

The magic number took the spotlight this week with 33 million Californians under lockdown and a 3-3 vote rejected a symbolic resolution affirming Biden as president-elect. Oh, and maybe you caught its appearance in this Georgia poll worker Ruby Freeman’s livestream. 

In local news, a man was shot around 3:30 PM on a 3300 block. Then, a Kansas City TV anchor suggests COVID may cause erectile dysfunction and debunks infertility with an “expert” simply saying, “No.” Kansas City company CLOVR is the first in the state to be approved to bake edibles.

Lots of stoners jumping up and down after the MORE Act became the first decriminalization bill to pass a chamber of Congress. It slated to for a vote before Election Day, but COVID was deemed a higher priority. Funny thing is, COVID seems here to say with no resolution on a second stimulus check, so why schedule this vote now? Probably the same reason aliens are in the news: DISTRACTION. 

Next year, the NBA may test players for the rona, but they won’t be testing for weed,and Colorado cities like Denver and Aurora may finally get a delivery system in place. They appear to be following in the footsteps of Massachusetts delivery system, with a six-year stipulation that licenses can only go to social equity applicants.

After getting shafted by the Supreme Court in 2020, Nebraska advocates have decided to take up two initiatives in 2022: medical and recreational, just like their neighbor South Dakota where both passed.

An Oregon doctor had his license revoked after telling rally attendees that he and his staff don’t wear masks. We debunk this recipe, suggesting it takes three cups of cum to make a baby and cheer on the Tennessee couple that broke a record after adopting and birthing a 28-year-old frozen embryo. A renovation team at the Roslyn Grist Mill in New York found a 1917 letter in a milk bottle with some coins. Did the Paw Patrol advent calendar include guns and grenades? Spoiler alert: no. 

We hear from Boo-Bury and FarmerTodd about the first time they ever went camping and propose our FTIE for next week: first time I ever smoked cigarettes. SPOILER ALERT: Our first time I ever for 12/22 will be the first time I was ever a hospital patient. Yes, we got two birds stoned this week on our prompts. Now give us a call and share your story!

Thanksgiving break may be over, but we can still appreciate this Florida man who thawed his turkey out in the backyard pool. We had two Zoom calls too many but enjoyed the Mike Tyson v. Roy Jones Jr. fight this weekend. Lots to be thankful here in Kansas City though with an impending Super Bowl Baby Boom and Santa Claus arriving to town. Another mascot is getting nerfed, though, after 3,300 signatures were collected to change it. *ding ding ding*

The magic number showed up in other places, too. The Queen is bucking a 33-year-old traditionby spending Christmas in Windsor and the DOW is about to hit a33-year-old monthly high. Then, there were 33 Guatemalan children sent back to their native country despite a judge order forbidding ICE from returning them.

We discuss the latest presidential goings on and the politicization of Lisa Montgomery’s upcoming federal execution.On a lighter note, the Rockefeller Christmas tree owl is okay and returned to wilderness.  

In weed news, the House is expected tovote on the MORE Act tomorrow while Michigan raked in $400 million in the first year of recreational sales. Arizona’s Prop 207took effect Monday, the same day that Massachusetts’ Cannabis Control Commission gave the green light on new regulations allowing for home delivery. And lastly, the UN may vote tosymbolically de-schedule weed this week.

You may have heard about the mysterious monoliths appearing and disappearing in Utah then showing up in Romania, but did you catch the story of the penis sculpture that mysteriously disappeared from a German mountainside?

Happy birthday to our nine-year-old doggo, Murphy! We have the best producers to celebrate. Dowodenum comes in as executive producer for this episode and @one made the fabulous SirSpencer art for today’s episode!

In Kansas City, a 29-year-old woman was killed trying to get her car towed, Goodwill employees are working alongside robots, and a 33-year-old man was charged with shooting a nine-year-old. Vaccine-supportive narratives are making the rounds and there is even a bus where you can hop on and become a vaccine guinea pig! Not to mention new COVID guidelines requiring bars to close at 10:00 p.m. while limiting their capacity to 50% were released on this show day. 

Other instances of magic number 33 in the headlines:
33 COVID deaths in Kentucky
Lil NAS X’s Roblox concert attracted 33 million views

Laurien brings up the recent events in “consequence-free zones” like Washington, D.C. and falls down the abortion rabbit hole because of a budget amendment that passed the Massachusetts House. Originally, it was written to allow girls 12 years and older to get an abortion without a parent’s permission. A British soap opera now features a character aborting a baby after finding out it may have Down’s Syndrome, but remember: an actor with Down’s Syndrome, John Franklin Stephens, told the UN, “My life is worth living.”

 
In weed news…
A California judge heard a delivery case and has yet to make a decision.
Colorado weed sales are up despite the lack of tourism, and $2.5 million in restitution was just granted to four investors in a pot fraud case.

A Michigan company is expanding into four states, including Missouri. A panel in New Mexico supports increasing the medical purchase limit. The New Jersey decriminalization bill will not be heard as the state waits for legal sales to begin and the Virginia governor is now calling to pass a legalization bill in 2021.

Across the border in Canada, a bunch of oil was recalled after incorrectly being labeled for inhalation instead of ingestion. 

Behind the curtain, we laugh about Scott Adams now being a controversial White House pandemic advisor and dig into ex-CIA  officer Robert Steele’s video in which he says, “make a deal, motherfucker, or you are going to die.” HIGH ENERGY!

Our FTIE topic for tonight was the first time I ever realized the government lied to us, and we heard from lots of folks via voicemail and text. Next week, we invite you to call or text us at (816) 607-3663 and tell us about the first time you ever saw the dark side of the moon in the sky.

Speaking of Halloween, we also have a great Trick-or-Treat retelling, as Laurien hand-made costumes again for the girls. They went as Bingo and Bluey, cartoon pups from a kid’s show out of Australia. We got a taste of Halloween and the various COVID precautions all across the spectrum that people adopted throughout the neighborhood.

Laurien and Spencer bring you a fresh fully-packed bowl the day after Laurien’s 27th birthday! There was a lot to discuss, starting with a recap of the previous week. We participated in a Live Fourcast of the Vice Presidential debate with Fletcher and Carolyn of Hog Story, we send in a steamy clip toGrumpy Old Bens to celebrate their 100th episode, Spencer took the girls up to Orrick for a play date with their best friend, and we had one helluva good time at Fun Farm in Kearney for Laurien’s birthday! We also give the bowlers updates on what we’ve been listening to on Audible, namely Doug Stanhope’s “No Encore for the Donkey” and Norm Macdonald’s “Based on a True Story: A Memoir.” Laurien and Spencer also recount their trip out to Bisbee to see Doug Stanhope film his “No Place Like Home” special and crash the Funhouse.

In weed news, The supreme court declined to hear Washington v. Barr, which sought to challenge the Schedule I status of cannabis at a federal level. Maine opened for recreational weed sales last Friday the 9th, selling nearly $100,000 worth of product on opening day. Pabst is entering the cannabis-infused drink space, and the State of California has destroyed 1.1 million pot plants in its annual marijuana eradication efforts this year.

We go over some great strikes and gutterballs, talk a bit about Spence’s upcoming Full Stack Web Development course, and enjoyed a very sweet and heartwarming happy birthday voicemail from the lovely quirkess!

Strikes and gutterballs were a plenty, Spencer gets into an incoherent rant over what is and isn’t “revenge porn,” and we had voicemails from Leyonhjelm and Fletcher about this week’s #FTIE topic, “The first time I ever went bowling.” Next week’s topic is “the first time I ever had Chipotle.”

Executive Producer: Sir CMike $100

We have a special show tonight! Since the debates fell on a Bowl After Bowl show night, we live streamed the debates and played along with No Agenda Bingo. We put that at the end of our episode, so first you get some more travel updates from Laurien and Spencer! We also discuss what we’ve been watching lately: Feels Good, Man, a documentary about the Pepe the Frog meme, and Brave New World, a Peacock Original Series that is a modern retelling of Aldous Huxley’s famous dystopian novel.

We also throw some balls and strikes and celebrate this heartwarming story sent to us by Fletcher about the 96 year old woman who bowled a 300 game:

We also discussed the First Time I Ever saw porn. Next week’s topic will be “First Time I Ever Went Bowling.” Call or text us at (816) 607-DOOF (3663) and tell us your story!
