We're considering retitling the podcast "Random Reminiscing with Mundane Men" or "Rhetorical Paragraphs." If you don't know what we're talking about, don't worry about it. We don't either.

This week on Talking Paragraphs: Dan can't find Caitlin Clark's cereal anywhere. The time for Kum&Go has come and gone, say new owners. Pepsi cuts off the French. Is World War III soon to follow? Also: 100 great movie quotes from Fandango.

Old friends Dan and Tyler discuss the recent school shooting at nearby Perry from the perspective of a teacher (Dan) and a dad (Tyler). The usual nonsense topics begin at about the 38:30 mark.

Dan and Tyler discuss their New Year's Resolutions, bullets in a baby's diaper, the massacre of the Pop Tart's Bowl mascot, a video from space of a cat chasing a laser, and other sundry topics in the last episode of Talking Paragraphs for 2023 ... or the first one of 2024 depending on when you listen to it.

The old paragraph stacker himself, Daniel Finney, and the world’s most dangerous agribusiness communicator, T-Square, discuss the flaming wreck of T-Squares car, monster-sized goldfish, McDonald’s-themed Crocs, and the potential cancellation of poinsettias.

Dan talks through the grief of losing Mom 2.0, Joyce Rogers, who died Nov. 27. His longtime pal Tyler Teske is along to help him process.

Old friends Dan and Tyler try to make amusing points about current events but get lost in stories about vertical hold and a dumpy restroom in Eagleville, Missouri, visited in 1997 after a Yankees-Royals game.

Bonus: A lengthy two-part discussion of the taffy candy Airheads.

The ole' Paragraph Stacker, Daniel Finney, talks Matthew Perry's death and the sorrows of addiction, being forced to root for a Texas team in the World Series, the Great Dime Bags Caper, and the lasagna-thieving Bear, all that and more on Talking Paragraphs No. 143.
