    Welcome to another episode of Hero or Dick!

    This time around, we explore the world of bovines! And...Cheese lovers, brace yourselves. In honor of our milk-producing friends, we pit two cans of spray cheese against each other in a blind taste test. But it’s not all fun and games. We tackle the ethics of cow consumption, the $66 billion beef industry, and the rise of plant-based alternatives. It’s a fast-paced mix of humor, reflection, and surprising facts about cows and our connection to them.

    Thanks for listening!

    Welcome to another episode of Hero or Dick! This time around, we turn our attention to the enigmatic and ever-fascinating Chevy Chase. From his early days as a drummer in what would become Steely Dan to his pioneering role on Saturday Night Live, Chase's career has been as unpredictable as it is legendary.

    We also have a candid discussion about New Year's resolutions and tackle the paradox of personal improvement, debating whether kindness to mean people or the art of regifting makes one a hero or a "dick."

    As always, thanks for listening!
