Podcastia! You wanted him, you got him. That's right, John Palma is back! This time with even more Butterball-Shock Power and carrying a number 4 wrench! While Christina is out getting her hair cut, Frank snuck John into the studio for another idiotic yet informative conversation.

That's right. "Informative".

There's even a caller who was waiting on hold for most of the episode in hopes of Frank checking the phone.

Glorified leafblower Damian Malave is up to his old tricks again! Willing to do absolutely ANYTHING to win the Trenton NJ South Ward Council seat. TODAY Malave was seen escorting people into the voting location, (the Trenton Firehouse at 244 Perry St) pointing at his name on the ballot and telling them, in Spanish, to vote for him.

If you are a registered boter and live in the South Ward, vote for Jenna Figueroa Ketenberg for South Ward council. Send a message to this guy that his brand of character will not be tolerated here.
