On the inaugural edition of The Whiparound, your hosts discuss death, dying, and perspective on nothing less than mortality itself. It’s a six-feet-deep, steel-lined ditch of a great time on the show’s Deep Dive.
BUT FIRST: A brief get-to-know-you with the guys gives way to some discussion of Columbus Day, Italian heritage from the two Italian-Americans on the show, and options for something a bit more fun in the way of Italian heritage celebration in America. Whom would Dave or Phil nominate to be the symbol of orgoglio Italiano? Quantum mechanics comes up. Obviously. AND LATER…Phil blows our minds about blowing out our ears with sonic weapons on the first official episode of SCIENCE, MUTHAFUCKAS!…Shaun obsesses over some of history’s most interesting, most ironic, and FUNNIEST? deaths…Dave cracks his knuckles in anticipation of crushing Nazis in an upcoming, hotly-anticipated video game… AND MORE, this week…on The Whiparound!
