Juan joins us today to talk about his career as a firefighter and the shenanigans that firefighters get into, such as pranking each other and problems with the toilets.

 

008 The Gun Problem

gun wordcloud

Guns have taken center stage once again after another senseless mass shooting. States across the country are attempting to pass legislation calling for stricter gun control in the hopes of preventing another tragedy from occurring. In this podcast we discuss our thoughts on guns and what we believe can be done to stop the violence. If you have problems with what we said or would like to debate, please leave a comment.
