Spare Bosom For Donating

While shopping online for Peggy’s zip-off pantyhose, Buzz is sent to the hospital after a hamburger-helper puncture causes his left snoodle to pop off, and they also recruit for Jesus’ church hula-hoop team.

In this update to Mary Lou, the narrator is after a new model for a new foundation for Buzz after reading about another family’s charitable effort in the Reynoldsburg Times. All the while, Buzz is preparing to get his library card and hopes Mary Lou might spend a few hours with him checking out comic books—or Snoopy. The request comes after a recent library disaster in which Buzz was found nearly naked on the bathroom floor after his scrotum popped off and rolled across the building, causing a scene with Denny from the car wash. The message closes with requests for “dumplings for the soul” books, concern that Mary Lou hasn’t been around in years, and a complaint that the house has grown smoggy without her changing the air filters.

After a stop at Pirates of the Caribbean Bar and Grill, they went to Third Church of Christ to have a hereditary family photo taken. Buzz wore his beloved boat shirt and Peggy powdered him up, but the whole thing went sideways when he sneezed during the picture and his scrotum popped off. The church is upset and wants an apology, though the narrator insists Buzz has every right to keep his parts private. The episode also reveals that Buzz may be moving to Zambezi Bay with his new wife, Cubble Dough, raising the unsettling possibility that the podcast itself might need a new name?!

Starting bright and early with an invitation to join the crew for a spaghetti pie gathering while Alex prepares the bongs and the group gets ready to eat. He reflects on the previous night, describing a lunar equinox with a red, sunless moon that felt “as if God had winked at us.” The evening included spaghetti pie and ice cream sandwiches, and the narrator thanks anyone who attended. With plans to continue the week and a casual sign-off, the episode blends party logistics with quiet cosmic reflection.

This quick update for Michael is regarding Peggy’s recent medical situation. After a visit to the doctor, she is asked to return due to complications of her genitalia, which was “swollen shut” upon her initial examination. While the doc attributes the issue to excessive viewing of Sex and the City, the narrator suggests a more practical explanation involving hygiene.

While enjoying a couple of Barnyard Busters at Ruby Tuesday’s with a dear friend, Buzz, an unexpected scrotal detachment interrupts the evening and forces a quick emergency trip to Ace Hardware. With just a Phillips head screwdrivers and soldering iron, they manage to reattach the situation before the doctor says it would have been too late to properly enjoy their busters for supper. After the improvised repair, they rush back to the restaurant to resume their meal and continue exploring the restaurant’s unusual dessert entrée system, hoping to catch up with Kelsey soon.

A late-night message to Mary Lou takes a hard left into Buzz’s latest emergency: middle-of-the-night dribbles followed by a consequential Walgreens pants run, a bath, and the lingering aftermath for Jim and Peggy to wipe clean. Equal parts concern, confusion, feces, and newfound concerns for Buzz’s recently-announced drinking habit.

While recovering from flu-like symptoms at home, an unsuccessful attempt to treat the illness by running vinegar down his nose is made per Peggy's suggestion. Plans for supper are still underway, with Alex preparing steak kebabs while the narrator heads out to grab burgers and apple pies. Buzz has just returned from a vacation with his new girlfriend Dribble, and the evening may include visits from Uncle Rolf and Buzz’s uncle Borble. Hoping not to spread the flu, the gathering may remain small, but who cares? The narrator notes that the episode is a fairly boring podblast but promises something “a little more buzzy” soon, ending with a request for prayers and a warm sign-off.

Plans for another birthday party are underway before Buzz heads to Tennessee for the week, featuring hot dogs dipped in milk, a possible wedding to one of three girlfriends, and hopes that Mary Lou will cater the potluck— or at least call back one of these days.

Peggy considers donating her bosom within the family, offers up a yard of dark burnt gray hair, and Buzz joins the NRA while they quietly hire help for ongoing pant-splatting cleanup.
