Do your bucketlist, yo

About this episode

John and Jennifer discuss their experience at the Illinois State Fair, including various events and their English Bulldog's participation.

J & J talk about their bucketlist item; visiting the state fair. While it was still fresh, they converse around Princess Leia, English Bulldog, whom also attended said trip, the various events they attended sweatily, and the inconsistencies of the grandstand's plastic cup policy. [Editor's note: John incorrectly identified a "thrust stage" as an "ego stage" . Synonyms include "open stage" and "platform stage" but alas, not "ego stage"] #doYourBucketlistYo #jjTheGarage #ilStateFair #hotBalls #roadTripWithBulldog #bulldogsInTheHeat #bulldogsInTallGrass #sherylCrow #snoopDogg #warrenG #bradPaisley #egoStage #thrustStage #defLeppard #dariusRucker #patrickNewson #ginBlossoms #bucketOfDonuts #demolitionDerby #pigMisting #ribEyeSandwich #cowboyPotatoes #hellmannsMayo #thatShitIsBananas #natalieMerchant #reelBigFish #seniorPrices #mentalHealthMatters #outtakesFromTheGarage
