Episode 031 - SnowCast-A-Thon 2000 - Joe Fernandez, Brendan McGowan

Comedians Joe Fernandez and Brendan McGowan join Hank on a special Winners and Losers Podcast.

This is part 6 of the SnowCast-A-Thon 2000. Recorded between 5am and 6:30am this is the final segment of the SnowCast, making it a 12-hour marathon show. Joe was a little worn out but still managed to contribute greatly to the discussion. After he departs, Brendan and Hank discuss comedy and other shit with the kind of eloquence and intelligence that defies their drunken and exhausted mental state. Still funny, though. Back to regular shows soon.
