Western New York cuisine heiress turned Weisendorf Ten Elizabeth Chiavetta joins Bobby and Mike from what we can only imagine is her cavernous German castle for a wide-ranging edition of LRB. We listen back to a TBTL two-fer from 2013 featuring dreams of childhood heroics and a private work bathroom. Plus, Bobby apologizes, Mike comes out as bidet-curious, and Elizabeth shares a tip on getting racy pictures developed. (Hint: Find the Walgreens staffed by amiable old women with poor natural visio...

Close the garage door, crack a window, grab an extension cord, and please, hold the slab of red onion—we’re allergic. If you need anything feel free to ask Mike, but make sure he’s not holding a pen first, or he might give you the ol’ Louisiana Lavaflow.

Mike, Christy, Meredith and Bobby slap one more gallon of off-white paint up before strapping in, grabbing a mic, and hitting the drive-thru for a venti half-caff cup of Mike’s basketball tears (sorry, Mike) on the way to a stranger’s woodshop. We’d have parked, but only pheasants walk up, and it’s still a little cold for these parachute shorts.

Hop in you hooptie, flip off your boss on the highway, and join Meredith, Mike, Christy and Bobby in the last room available at the Singletree by Hilton in downtown St. Paul. The last of the sticker money has been converted into scratchers, and the crew is surviving on raisin scones, Grape Nuts and the conventioneers’ leftover chicken wings.

Avert your eyes and keep your mouth shut as Meredith, Mike, Bobby and Christy buy a giant tub of Vaseline and 500 Pixy Stix in your latest TBTL Week in Review. After we’re done, you can hit a three-pointer, take a victory lap, and raise the salmon-colored flag. We’ll be too busy figuring out what to do with this gross of wheat and blackstrap molasses to notice anyway.(Note: Christy's mic was a little hot during recording of this episode so she sounds a bit distorted from time to time, we know an...

Mike and Bobby take a break from a Wives With Knives marathon to talk with TenVer Patricia Lopez about legendary Walsh-troll Golfman, and whether or not Mike’s comments on our last episode make him a misogynist. (Spoiler Alert: He insisted we pay her 70% of what we give our usual guests.) Our TBTL flashback from 2013 includes a 2.5 American Pie tangent on the FreeCreditReport.com commercials in what we are just realizing now was probably a backdoor pilot for After These Messages.

Join Bobby, Mike and Meredith aboard the Lil’ Seacret for an anti-inflammation TBTL Week in Review. Despite being short an ailing Christy, we strive to be as charming as a Zappos customer support agent, or at least an Xfinity remote. If nothing else, we’ll be sure to leave a good tip. Note: At one point in this episode, Meredith accidentally uses the dated term “stewardess.” She clearly meant to say “in-flight wench.” LRB regrets the error.
