In todays untold stories pulled from the archives, we look back at some moments that were not included in past episodes as well as the origin story of the ongoing Carman joke. Topics also include voicemails, the Left Behind series, Dr. Pepper, getting sick in Georgia, a special delivery story, Jared working as a security guard, and for some reason this is seeming like a Willy Wonka podcast now.

This weeks blockbuster episode has it all! Voicemails! Sponsored content! Guilty pleasures! And The Squids are joined by Nathan Shumaker from Everdown, On Fire, & The Burning Paris. Discussions also include getting out of class creatively, proofreading mistakes, 8 tracks, recording Everdown's albums, the CCM Museum, and an unexpected trip to the Carman Corner.

This week The Squids jump right into the chaos with a discussion about Willy Wonka and homeschooling. Then Sean McCorkle from Morellas Forest stops by. Topics include Geoff Moore, touring beverage facilities, vinyl, dreaming up a documentary idea, the Morellas Forest Tribute album, and continues on after Sean leaves with some more nonsense. They take a stab at a fantasy band draft, listen to a voicemail, and get real in depth about the holidays.
