Time For My Stories 6 - Lost (03/31/2021)

Oh brother THIS STINKS. Not our episode, don't tell people I said the episode is bad. Lost dares you not to vaporize your TV with a SAN 511 anti material rifle.

Time For My Stories 4 - The Shield (03/18/2021)

Well, if you're a hooplehead (?) yo...

Time For My Stories 1 - Sons Of Anarchy (02/24/2021)

The first episode. The most important show ever made. The most prestige prestige show of all time. The most times a creator of a show has ever appeared in said show and given himself AIDS as part of the story. American destiny.
