The Wild Cards That Never Were

Welcome to The Wild Card Podcast!  This is episode 136 of our attempt at this whole podcasting thing!! Today's episode features: Jared Eaton being very willing to double agent for the right girl, Jeff Curtis enjoying that freshly vacated feeling, and Ron Blair getting a bank loan as two children in a trenchcoat!! Throughout the episode, you'll hear the three of us discuss such varied topics as: the way this podcast is about all the "ations" and a ball of confusion, another round of Crazy Questions to ponder, our most damnable commercial yet, the unattainability of Mae West, the majesty of pimp suits (not the slap-you-round kind, of course), the merits of the Murder-lympics, fun with corpses (Jared is a sick man), and occasionally we part from our tangents to learn about one of the most incredible acts of subterfuge of all time: Operation Mincemeat. This week, Jeff talks you through the development of the idea, the masterful work done by the spies to cover every contingency, and the results of dropping a corpse off the coast of Spain!  Join us on this journey to wherever and we're sure you'll unravel the mystery of our Duplicitous Podcast!
