Doug mentioned finding the first NGOB episode and posting it as a bonus ep and (spoiler alert) I found it!

Instead, you get episode 5 where we talk about how we randomly found Steve O'Brian and knew he was a pro right away. That was not quite the sta…

Doug's son Adam is sitting in with the guys today so I wanted to come up with a good clickbait-worthy title for him, but I'm not young and hip enough for that. I was originally thinking "D&S Get Some Extra A Today!" but since the "A" is Doug's son, I thought that might be inappropriate. Not that Doug and Strick aren't inappropriate enough already, …
