Absolutely Chicken Thigh

You want to go to your happy place? Don't bother, we have something better. Rich returns from his country-hopping multi-week trip with his family.

Also opportunism between brothers, an odd boomer quirk and of course a lot more pass-agg dad discussion. What are you cooking up, BTW? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more info...
