Luke found himself leapfrogging fences and jumping through traffic in Las Vegas this morning. Andrew, who's taking life more slowly, has some thoughts on grapefruits.   

Luke joins the show hot off of his recent class at an LA-based clown school. Andrew hopes it leads to a funnier era of TBTL. The school also trained an actor you likely know from her work in Progressive Insurance commercials, which Andrew has a lot of thoughts on. They also discuss Luke's not-so-fantastic voyage through the twisting, winding streets of the Hollywood Hills.

Luke and Andrew admit to their latest individual online shenanigans. (Luke's are related to an annoying real estate trend, while Andrew's regard his local public radio station.) They also talk about the guy who's starting a Costco food delivery business that seems bound to fail and a (beloved?) cereal from the 1990s that they'd both forgotten about. 

Andrew's confusion over a children's television character ends up unlocking some fond memories. A few commercials caught Luke's attention during the Seahawks game yesterday, including a weirdly intense one from Gronk. They also discuss the apparent end of the Cybertruck. 

Luke and Andrew do a little Friday Fridge Cleanout to wrap up the week. They talk about another unfortunate bronze statue in a long line of unfortunate bronze statues, they find out who won the contest to be the new voice of Boston's airport, and they worry about the future of democracy now that the rest of the country realizes how handsome TBTL's favorite congressman is. They also learn that Lake Champlain really was once a "Great Lake" (for about two weeks in 1998.)  Photo credit: Lily Brown of The Daily Evergreen newspaper (WSU)

Luke is excited to learn about a special radio station that's dedicated to keeping the correct time. He and Andrew also revisit their feelings about being called "Boss", with new insight from Television's Chris Hayes. And Andrew recently saw some folks trying to repair their electronic reclining chairs in a movie theater, and it was a whole thing.  

Luke was visited by a ghost while he was watching election returns last night. Andrew found himself in a surprising position by 10pm. They discuss the historic night, the future of democracy, and why you should always remove your dog's pajamas before taking her outside to pee.

Luke and Andrew try to simultaneously process their feelings about tonight's upcoming election results and last night's tough Seahawks loss…and a hilarious text message Luke received after the game. They also hear about the Pennsylvania woman who was arrested for purposely blocking delivery robots on the sidewalk and an 85-year old man who's been running a tiny baseball card shop out of his house using the honor system for payments. 

Andrew has an update on his puppy's surgery over the weekend and how they're all handling the cone situation. Luke is learning about modern video game design via Modern Warfare. And they discuss the New York Times' controversial reporting about the highly contested US Senate race in Alaska and one campaign's apparent attempts to mislead voters. 

Luke and Andrew celebrate Halloween the only way they know how: By talking about different kinds of cucumbers and how their opinions about produce have changed because of TBTL. Plus, Andrew's feeling a little anxious about his dog's surgery this weekend, while Luke is looking forward to spending more time with Tim Heidecker.
