Ever been scammed?  Ever think you could be so gullible?  Well your boy Ragman fell for the oldest trick in the book, after his phone was stolen in The Big Easy.  Tune out to hear his story.  Next he brings in his boy Alex for a chat about music, nonsense and what ever comes to mind.  

Editor's Note:  Due to some maybe excessive beer drinking Ragman got the band wrong on the Fit for a King tour.  It was Northlane, not Lorna Shore.  Close right?  That said you will get both in this show.
