TFT"LC" SPECIAL: B-Sides & Rarities (Part 2) Juice & Glen Shoot the Shit

Okay, so way back in Season 1 Episode 16 of this podcast, I did an episode called Stanky Patrons and Other Dusty Turds.  In that, I introduced the concept of the woefully stinky patrons we often had to deal with at my “liberry” and it’s the first appearance of their king, Mr. Stanky.  And because the entry I was adapting in it ended with a quote about stinky patrons, originally penned by my friend and former library worker Glen B, I decided to call Glen up and have him read his own damn quote.  And afterward, we'd just shoot the shit for a while since we don't get to very often.

Of the hour and two minutes we talked, I wound up only using 27 minutes for the podcast, which was mainly where the library talk happened.  But I threatened that one day I would release the rest of it because it too was good stuff.  Today is that day.

If you've already heard Episode 16, the first 27 minutes will seem awfully familiar (though with a few DVD extra changes from the original aired version, such as the first draft of my awkward and line-flubby reading of the entry).  The rest has only been lightly edited.   If you haven't heard Episode 16, don't bother going back for it cause it's all contained herein.

TFT"LC" SPECIAL: B-Sides & Rarities, Part 1

Over the two years that I've been adapting entries from the Tales from the "Liberry" blog, there have been occasions when I've recorded entries for an episode and then removed them during editing.  Sometimes this was for purposes of keeping an episode below a certain length; sometimes because another entry in the same episode made basically the same point; sometimes because the entry just wasn't funny or satisfying to begin with; and sometimes because the sound quality of the recorded file turned out to be abominable.  Most of the time, I deleted those lost files.  But once in a while, I saved them for a rainy day, thinking I might one day need a B-Sides episode I could quickly throw together in case I needed a week off.  (Unlike last week, which I just took off with no substitutions.)

This week's special episode presents a few of those saved entries, warts and all.  Interspersed between them, however, are a few tales featuring a member of the "Liberry" Rogues Gallery who somehow never really made it into an episode of the podcast.  Which is a tragedy, because he was the very first Rogue Patron I ever mentioned in the blog itself.  And then there's the matter of his secret identity.

EPISODE 051 (251): The Graduate and Other Penultimate Tales Told Out of Order

For the penultimate episode of this podcast, I chose to tell some stories `bout my goodly wife.  Unfortunately, because I recorded this particular episode, like, a month and a half ago, I've been doing callbacks to the references in it not realizing I hadn't made them yet.  Among these references were the medical mission trip to Central America we both took in the mid oughts, and a brain tumor scare.  One of those stories gets told this week.  But several episodes back I also referred to the first of the rare occasions when I was able to actually surprise my wife with a gift on one of her major days.  That story appears here as well.  And, to wrap things up, I have a never-before-blogged-or-really-told tale from our time on the aforementioned mission trip--a story that involves giant condoms.
