207 - Sabattical, Schmabattical

Daniel and Adam open the episode chatting about Halloween—Daniel hides in his office to avoid trick-or-treaters, while Adam describes the awkwardness of answering the door to children and not knowing what to say. Their discussion meanders into nostalgia for 1980s cartoons like BraveStarr and Batman and Robin , complete with moral lessons and childhood memories. Daniel gives an update on his running habit, then the pair discuss Big Fatty’s visit to Florida and Daniel’s recent Disney fireworks cruise with friends. The “Contact” segment follows, featuring listener emails and a bit of confusion about previous messages from Tim. The conversation spins off into their running joke about the “Little Fatty Cast,” including speculation about Larry Vader’s life and the hosts’ habit of dissecting other shows. Afterward, they roll into the “News Game,” where Adam quizzes Daniel on trivia pulled from AI, the New York Times, and random internet sources. Topics include Disney+, high-tech board games, and dazzling supermoons. Daniel manages to hold his own, even as Adam struggles to read the cards with his glasses. The episode closes with the “Birthdays” segment, where Adam plays clips for Daniel to guess which celebrities are celebrating. Michael Landon makes a posthumous appearance, and Daniel nails the answer. Wrapping up, Adam muses about taking a work sabbatical while Daniel offers pragmatic advice (and a reminder that Google exists). The show ends on their trademark mix of laughter, digression, and camaraderie. Email: contact@MixMinusPodcast.com Voice/SMS: 707-613-3284
