Little Red Bandwagon

Wagoneer, Ten and mother of The Littlest Lyft Driver in Memphis Amy Sheppard joins childless Meredith and childless Bobby to talk about Luke’s unorthodox (and some would way, brilliant) parenting strategy. And unlike when she talked to Mike and Christy, this time the final product is actually airable. Other topics include tattoos, life as a furrier, and nerding out about other podcasts. TBTL segment from March 9, 2011.

Just please don’t be a 5-year-old Kobe and hog all the Tabasco and lemon juice—your urethra will thank you later.

HistoriTen Ben Quick joins Christy and Mike on La Isla Bonita to celebrate TBTL and express himself about what the show means to him. We are borderline crazy for you to cherish this episode. It will justify your love for the LRB. Also, Jen sings.​​The TBTL clip heard on this show originally aired March 10th 2008 download or listen here

Mike and Meredith put down their coney dogs long enough to chat with OG DetroiTen Colleen about her unusual childhood, midwest junk food nostalgia, and, of course, Juggalos. We reflect on a compilation of clips from the TBTL archives about strange or misheard lyrics, so grab your friend Ken Lee, put those peanuts in your coat, and head down to Donkey Kong with us.TBTL clip pulled from TBTL #935 "Why Put Peanuts In Your Coat?" 

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 and we'll do our best to fix it next time!) 

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. High Zeros!

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.

Aaaaaaaand we’re back!

One year ago today, Luke, Andrew, Sean and Firebird Jimmy recorded an episode of TBTL talking about their New Year’s Resolutions, we think. We were going to listen and use their hopes and dreams as a punching bag for an hour, but instead we all went out to do stuff. So, here’s that TBTL. We’re pretty sure it was a good one. Happy New Year! (TBTL #1765: What Will We Do Yesterday Night? originally aired 1/1/2015.) Subscribe to Little Red Bandwagon in iTunes or use this RSS link in your podcatcher of choice.
