Hey Everybody, it’s Jimbo! – Special: Questions for Chad – 082 (2/3/16)

chad (53:53) Meet Chad Bowers. He’s the guy that sounds like he escaped from a Texas mental institution when he podcasts. Oh wait, no, that’s Jimbo. I think Chad is the one who plays it straight and then twists the story enough to where you are go, “What the hey?” Yeah, that’s the guy.

Anyway, whoever he is, he recently answered a mess of odd questions for Jimbo. Partake with this audio as if this were Bayou-spicy all-you-eat-seafood.
