This episode's special guests are:

*Keith Karaff, Executive Director of Chili Appreciation Society International (CASI)

*Mike Watkins, Historian/Archivist of Chili Appreciation Society International (CASI)

*Mike McCloud, President of International Chili Society (ICS)

Tom & Julie's Top 10 Things Dec 21, 2020

Show notes

It's the ultimate year-end list! Tom and Julie pick their Top 10 Things of 2020, including Febreze, Jon Daly's Snowman song, not having to be jealous of other people's accomplishments, The George Lucas Talk Show, and more highlights from the year that sucked. Also Tom and Julie dictate one last email for Brett to send in 2020 - and buckle up, because this one might put an end to Brett's excellent business relationship with TeePublic Gerry! Plus Andrew Dice Clay encounters Harold Lloyd, Matthew McConaughey voices Pepe the Frog, The Chaffeur's Hole returns with a new soundtrack, and Dana Carvey films Master of Disguise on 9/11. And you'll hear Brett's Holy Grail of Listener Submitted Clips ("Sliders of the Night") and the return of several Double Threat favorites like The Cryptkeeper, Curtis Sliwa, Bernie Goetz, Oja Kodar, Brice Beckham, and Kelsey Grammer.
