Dan and Michael Heard it through the Grapevine
In this episode of People Stuff, Dan and Michael get deep into gossip by interpreting rumours about poisoned Halloween candy, fact checking political speech, and figuring out where the best deer stand is in the suburbs. This episode gives some truth to the old aphorism that there are lies, damn lies, and People Stuff. Still, if you’re a human that talks to other humans then this episodes for you.
