Ken and John provide a time capsule of whimsical recordings for future generations, commemorating the human race's triumphant achievements and its beautiful mundanities. There's no way you want to miss out on these strange-but-true stories.

In this episode, the Goods from the Woods Boys are daring to hassle "The 'Hoff". Dr. Pat leads this rousing episode all about the storied music career of the biggest hunk on the beach: David Hasselhoff. From his meteoric rise to the top of the German pop charts to the fortuitous fizzling of his career in the good ol' U.S.A. we sample Hasselhoff's 1994 greatest hits album, Looking for... the Best of David Hasselhoff. We also talk about WHY he's huge in Germany, his SUPER WEIRD autobiography, and the reason O.J. Simpson might just be the one responsible for killing his music career. This episode is one of our favorites and we sincerely hope you love it as much as we do!  Song of the week this week: "You Get Me Hot" by Jimmy Bo Horne.  You can follow us on Twitter: @TheGoodsPod  Rivers is @RiversLangley  Dr. Pat is @PM_Reilly  Mr. Goodnight is @SepulvedaCowboy Pick up a Goods from the Woods t-shirt at: http://prowrestlingtees.com/TheGoodsPod

Buuuugs. We cover perhaps Alie's favorite ology ever with an ologist who changed her life. Meet Lila Higgins: the self-professed "bug geek" with passion more infectious than a glassy winged sharpshooter mouth. (That will make sense later.) We talk about clowns in the forest, badgers, Hare Krishnas, solitary bugs vs. social ones, why wasps are such dicks and why it's totally fine to kiss a cockroach and eat a cricket.

Crystal Lee was First Runner-Up in the 2014 Miss America pageant, and now she's part of a tech startup in Silicon Valley. Crystal has written some incisive pieces including one for CNN.com in response to what happened at the most recent Miss America - that is, a contested answered a question competently and the world exploded. We talk about her background, how exactly one becomes a Miss America contestant, and whether she thinks pageants will be able to escape their undeniably sexist roots!

...unless you're a bazillionaire or a bank or some other corporation. I talk about the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau - the brainchild of one future president Elizabeth Warren - and that the only reason you could possibly be against it is if you hate people and prefer banks. So, naturally the Republicans are against it. Then I'm onto another rousing voicemail segment that takes up most of the show because I love hearing from you and engaging your arguments and criticisms!

Twice a week, Ken and John add a new entry to the OMNIBUS, an encyclopedic reference work of strange-but-true stories that they are compiling as a time capsule for future generations.

In this episode, the Goods from the Woods Boys sit down with the absolutely hilarious comedian Katrina Davis! We talk about the most obscure shows in Nickelodeon history (Anyone remember Wienerville?) and why people in the early 90's were obsessed with dolphins. We also get into the new Jersey Shore sequel, Floribama Shore, gigantic feral goldfish, and the extremely interesting phenomenon of synesthesia; a condition in which one sense (for example, hearing) is simultaneously perceived as if by one or more additional senses such as sight. This episode is all over the place and it's a great time from start to finish. Be sure to follow Katrina on Twitter and all social media @KatrinaSivad.

In the spirit of the Thanksgiving holiday, during which you no doubt spent hours arguing with your conservative family members, I bring you a discussion with a Trump supporting Republican. Though undoubtedly a gigantic underdog, Lonnie Miller is making a grassroots effort to become Governor of Tennessee. We talk about how he decided to do that, and we have some cross-political dialogue and the electoral college, healthcare, and taxes.
