E91: Drive-In Movie Theater Spank Bank

Travel agent Jeremy Gable is trying to make money through creative means...even if it includes cashing in on the drive-in movie theater craze by screening adult films and allowing people to watch via a website what happens inside each car (without telling the theater customers).

E90: A Portrait of the Absolutely Not Mad Black Woman

Grade A Nation welcomes Aubrey to the show. She discusses all sorts of things in her life: her love of beating special needs children in sports, how to thrive despite not being in a relationship for five years, her crush on Alex Jones, and the appeal of eyelid tattoos. Aubrey has a mouth that is dirtier than a state fair outhouse, but we love her anyway. This episode is not for those of the faint of heart (or social justice warrior types).

On this installment of Grade A Nation, we discuss whether an African-American man as "The Bachelor" will heal racial tensions in the USA.

E67: Pump off Andrew to Help Fight the Coronavirus?

The professional critic Good Times Tom Ladoux is concerned because all his area's restaurants, stores, and movie theaters are closed given the pandemic, so he has nothing to review. In desperate need for cash, he proposes a service called "House Calls for Good Times" where people can request to have their temperature taken from home. If they have a fever, they get a pamphlet and can watch on video as one of Tom's relatives engage in "self-love." If they don't have a fever, they can pay a fee and...
