This is one of our FAVE EPISODES...so we are putting it as one of our "Best of LCAD' shows since we are off this week. We have special guest Michael Brown from San Diego Ghost Tours on the show this episode to tell us about all the spooky spots in San Diego. There seems to be a hub here in the city and there's one building, in particular, that's super "active" as he explains. It's not the Whaley House either. Plus, he has some crazy amazing photos of ghosts that he's captured. You won't believe ...

You guys who watch our podcast and listen to our podcast mean the world to us. Without you, we wouldn't be able to do this twice a week for as long as we have doing it, which is over 4 years now. YOU are the reason we do this, YOU are the ones we want to make laugh and smile, shock and touch with our words and our little games and stories and such. YOU are part of our little family. To say we are thankful is not strong enough a word to describe how we feel. We are grateful for you, too, and we h...

Erik's dearest friend, Karen, lost her daughter to cancer so this 3-Day Walk is a big deal for her and for everyone who has lost someone to breast cancer or any other kind of cancer. It all sucks.

Not going to lie...the show starts off kind of tense because Erik and Laura are in a disagreement about something that we can't talk about yet. Does Laura shed tears? Does she make it through the show? We toss around our opinions on bigfoot and aliens and whoa they are all over the place. Laura's Rando News segment includes a story about things most people think smell disgusting but you secretly love. Laura's is particularly gross. And, a question...What could you give a 40-minute speech about w...

Producer Bryan hops up to the desk this episode to tell us about the Halloween Trail at the old Marshal Scotties. However, he winds up telling the longest joke in the history of the world and Laura about loses her mind because she hates jokes. This prompts the boys to launch into yet more jokes, which wears away at Laura's patience. Before all that Erik explains the incident that made him Halloween so much. We play a game called Normal or Nope. For example, is facing the shower to wash your hair...

It's a strange question but that's what we get when we play the card game "Bad People" in this episode. The cards have titillating questions that each of us must answer like "Who among us has the lowest standards?" or "Who is most likely to not be wearing underwear right now?" That's an easy one...ERIK. He shows up to the podcast wearing yet another one of the tight dresses Laura is selling at the swap meet this weekend. It barely covered his fruit basket!
