EP. 579: The Death Toll Mounts

Brian and Ed return after a brief hiatus, catching up on life, pop culture, current events, and an unusually long and hilarious “RIP” segment. From weird indie films to infamous hot dog feats, and from Antonio Brown’s never-ending spiral to Tyler Herro's conspiracy-fueled ignorance, this episode is packed with vintage TBLS banter and listener voicemails that go completely off the rails.
