One of the commercial quips says some of our guests have various conflicting opinions but of the audience it can be said all of us can’t sleep at night and listen to the show.
Eggs are good for you.
So, they’re saying a Coke will shorten your death experience by 12 minutes? Or when does the 12 minutes come off?
