Have a Coke and a Smile

New Wisecrakin' - Las Vegas Trip N Paul Moves to Gilead

Have a Coke and a Smile

Freewheelin’ and freestylin’ on Wisecrackin’. Mike and Veronica riff away on this, that, and the other. Mike plugs a few podcasts that you may or may not enjoy. Mike and Veronica play “Never Have I Ever”.

But whatever you do, stay tuned for Veronica paying off a bet by doing a whole line or something of Coke.  For some reason, she claims both to have not done it in years and that she doesn’t even enjoy it.

Be sure to follow Wisecrakin With Winter on the Facebook, and then remember to stare at your phone like all day, and next time maybe you can watch a live stream of the show being recorded. And, if you’re really lucky, you could get a shout out on the show, don’t you know! And as Mike promised, this show is being posted on Tuesday (at least west of Indiana, that is).

Special thanks to Veruca Salt for playing us out of the show. You gals have still got it!

New Year’s Eve Live from the Super 8

New Wisecrakin' - Las Vegas Trip N Paul Moves to Gilead

New Year’s Eve Live from the Super 8

This is the special episode you may or may not have been waiting for all year! Mike takes his equipment out on location to say goodbye to a great 2019 and ring in 2020. His first guest is Artist Steve who talks about his adventures in pre-9/11 New York City, being ahead of the trend on committing to a cruelty-free diet, and attending the Disco Demolition Night at old Comiskey Park.

Next up is an unidentified photographer who schools Mike on the need for taking good selfies and answers Mike’s sex ed questions.

The Big G’s secret admirer wanders in, but the exciting part for Mike is the discussion of what it’s like to live “the lifestyle”. Producer Paul gets the honor of following up that act with NFL wildcard weekend playoff picks. Find out whether he or Mike has the lighter wallet today.

Victoria Herringbone rounds thing outs with a recap of all the top stories of the entire decade. Stay tuned to see if your host can make it to midnight. Oh, and Kenny Loggins stops by to give Mike a bump into the new year.  Enjoy!

It’s a Beautiful Day in the Funhouse

New Wisecrakin' - Las Vegas Trip N Paul Moves to Gilead

It’s a Beautiful Day in the Funhouse

Ace correspondent Victoria Herringbone returns to the Funhouse to talk to Mike about Thanksgiving traditions. And, of course, that means a wrap of all the Black Friday scraps at the ol’ local shoppin’ malls. Later, she tries her hand at the weekly NFL picks segment. Can she best young Emma, who last week successfully picked the Miami Dolphins to take down the filthy Philadelphia Eagles?

Mike then pulls out that old Hotline to Heaven and takes a call from none other than The Fred Rogers. You’d think he’d busy doing other interviews, but he finds time to chat it up with Mike & Victoria. So much soothing wisdom. I’m just too relaxed to feel the pressure to write up more about this. So, relax and enjoy!

What Up With That? / Where’s My Truck?

Teen Emma joins Mike in the Funhouse for another installment of What Up With That? What the kids are doing on the internet, what is hot on the Billboard Top 20, and lots of whatnot.  Emma fills in for the Big G providing winning picks for the upcoming Week 13 NFL slate.

Mike then takes to the official Wisecrackin yankety-crankety prank telephone trying to find out the location of a secret “travel event” so he can win a Walmart gift card, a toaster and/or a new truck. These people must really want to sell him a timeshare or something. Or perhaps they are more interested in joining Mike’s club? Give it a listen.

The Highs and Lows of Paul’s Trip to Denver

The Highs and Lows of Paul’s Trip to Denver

New Wisecrakin' - Las Vegas Trip N Paul Moves to Gilead

The Highs and Lows of Paul’s Trip to Denver

Mike had lined up for the show another great guest, who shall remain unnamed, at least for the moment.  But a very last-minute cancelation by said guest catapulted Producer Paul into the hotseat of the virtual Wisecrackin funhouse studio. Paul took a brief trip to the Rocky Mountain State recently, and Mike grills him (me?) on what’s new out west, namely legal recreational marijuana. We talk about other things in Denver too. At least, I think we do. I’ve been having memory problems of recent. Anyway, you know want to hear about, all you so-called “red” and “purple” state residents, who still are prohibited from doing fun stuff.

You get a whole hour of Mike and Producer Paul. I think that’s me, man.  Some will love it. Some will ask when/if the monotone answers will ever end. But you know you want it.  So, come get it!

We’ll also talk about the Joker movie. Was I too hard on it? I can’t remember, man. NFL Week 9 results discussion and whatnot, and bonus commentary from “yours truly”, Orenthal James Simpson. If you don’t know why the “yours truly” is in quotation marks, then you need to pay attention. The Juice is definitely loose on the internet.  Great stuff as always. Enjoy!

Scary Halloween Stories and Costume Advice

Scary Halloween Stories and Costume Advice

New Wisecrakin' - Las Vegas Trip N Paul Moves to Gilead

Scary Halloween Stories and Costume Advice

A very special holiday edition of Wisecrackin With Winter. That is, if you actually consider this pagan celebration to be a true holiday. Anyway, Mike recites spooky stories to the audience. Where does he get them? From an old dusty story book left behind in the attic by the creepy next door neighbor? Written on the walls of a truck stop bathroom stall? From the weathered pages of the Big G’s diary? We may never know, but we must listen.

Then, Victoria Herringbone slides back into the Funhouse to discuss costume dos and don’ts.  But, if you’re old enough to listen to this podcast, you really oughta know that costumes are for children. So, unless you’re not going to grow up and act like an adult, you can ignore this whole segment.  Or listen to it, we don’t really care what you do. You’re old enough to make your own decisions.

But really, you have to listen. There’s good parenting advice and stuff from Mike & Victoria as they delve beyond the humdrum news of the day to find you those hard-to-find human interest stories, and relate them to Mike’s childhood. Will they find the solution to the supposedly spiraling out of control crime epidemic inflicting itself upon downtown Minneapolis? I don’t know. Will they eventually give you advice on costumes? I don’t know that either. I can’t stay awake long enough to listen to the whole show. Just listen for me, and then send us an e-mail or hit us up on the Twitters to let me know. Thanks kids.

Rock Fest 2019

Rock Fest 2019

New Wisecrakin' - Las Vegas Trip N Paul Moves to Gilead

Rock Fest 2019

Well kids, it’s the heart of summertime.  And that means one thing for Wisecrackin With Winter. No, not a trip to the water park, the ball game, or the old county fair.  Regular fans know it means a report from the summer weekend of decadence that is Wisecrackin’ and friends’ annual rock and roll camping festival trip.

It’s still Wisconsin, but this year the Wisecrackin Road Show eschews Oshkosh’s Rock USA in favor of Cadott, WI’s Rock Fest. Yep, these guys are pretty darn creative on their festival names, but maybe there’s something to be said for Rock Fest, whose motto is: Where We Just Rock.  That they did, and so did Mike, and his good buddies Producer Paul & Woody.

Mike & Paul will walk you through all the fabulous (and not so fabulous) Rock Fest bands they heard, along with a comparison of the concert site and campgrounds vs. Rock USA.  As if all this wasn’t enough, Wisecrackin With Winter takes you backstage onto a real working tour bus for an interview with members of the world’s favorite Ozzy Osbourne tribute band, Madman’s Diary.  No topics are off limits as Mike explores the inner workings of a hardworking band of rock and rollers.  Special thanks to Tim Hartmann and Mike Setchfield of the band for the great material.

Yes, this episode is the biggest and the best.  We’ve never said anything like that before.  In fact, this episode, including the interview with the band Madman’s Diary, is so good that you won’t even miss not hearing from the Big G. But don’t worry, he’s just fine and will be back soon for your listening pleasure. For now, enjoy killing 100 minutes on this!

Mickey Mouse Uncensored

Mike and Political Paul take the show on the road to the vast magical kingdom built in the middle of a central Florida swamp.  Mike lands a big interview with the complex’s resident rodent, Mickey, who surprisingly caters his comments to the highly prurient interests of the Wisecrackin With Winter audience.  Promotional consideration not paid for by the Walt Disney Corporation, but shouldn’t it have been?  Listeners will definitely be making their travel plans after sensing the excitement in the voices of your host and co-host.

Guess what kids?  O.J. Simpson is on Twitter!  This is comedy gold, and this episode contains the first of what will hopefully be many, many comical readings and re-playings of the Juice’s commentary on how the world has wronged him.

Hitting the major news issues of the day as you’ve come to expect, Mike & Paul break down the President’s wacky comments to that little wiseguy George Stephanopolous.

Finally, an exhaustive (or exhausting) discussion of current offerings on the small screen.  And only one quick hitter from the Big G. Listen closely or you’ll miss it.

Autism Cure Finally Revealed

Following up on his recent discussion about anti-vaxxers, Mike invites ace correspondent Victoria Herringbone back into the Funhouse to unveil the secret fix for autism.  Although we all know that if it’s on the internet, it must be true, Victoria tries to warn Mike about some of the ills of social media.  Maybe they’ll figure out who wins on Facebook.

Stay tuned to hear Mike pull off a prank call that would make the Jerky Boys proud.

After insulting listeners in a dozen states, Mike’s charitable act of the week is to suggest that you support the Ronald McDonald House in your community. Please click here to find out more or to support the Ronald McDonald House

Finally, it’s been a few years since the untimely death of the artist in purple, so it’s time to revisit the grief and heartbreak of the Big G over the loss of one of Minneapolis’s favorite sons. And…

The Easter Bunny Died For Your Sins

The Easter Bunny Died For Your Sins

New Wisecrakin' - Las Vegas Trip N Paul Moves to Gilead

The Easter Bunny Died For Your Sins

One of the two most important Christian holidays (we think) has come and gone. If you’re like so many Christians and non-Christians alike, you’ve eaten a big meal, spent time with family, maybe even stepped into a house of worship, but one things for sure: you’re confused and silently wondering what it all means, but you’re too embarrassed to speak up. Well, this is the episode for you.

Father Mike will finally clear up all your consternation about the this holy day and its patron rabbit.  Ascension, chocolate rabbits, eggs.  Mike covers it all.

Next, Mike gets a news report of sorts from an out-of-work correspondent named Victoria Herringbone or some such moniker.  And finally, a youngster stops into the Funhouse to school Mike with “what up with that” which is on YouTube and social media.  Oh, and did we mention that the Big G has flown north for the summer?  Of course, he makes a special appearance.

Wisecrackin with Winter episode appreciates your listening and support of all of its sponsors, real and imaginary. Enjoy the show!
