This podcast made me 3 inches taller

Not going to lie to you guys, by listening to these wonderful gentlemen and their silky smooth voices, I became instantly smarter and better looking, was offered a promotion at my job, and saw a Minotaur in the park by my apartment. The Dollop is great, but Classic is better!
