Oscar Wilde once said "Moderation is a fatal thing. Nothing succeeds like excess." He meant it as a philosophy. He lived it as a cautionary tale. And somewhere along the way, the American restaurant industry, the internet, and this very podcast all decided he had a point.

In this episode of Keep Buggering On, we start with a confession: we mentioned KBO Standard Supply way too many times in our early episodes. We know. You know. We're fixing it, and we're owning it — because a show about human beings not getting it right the first time probably shouldn't pretend otherwise. Then we follow Wilde's line where it actually leads: into the history of a man who succeeded wildly by going too far in everything, into the restaurant menus that put bacon on a donut and called it progress, into the fried pickle (a perfectly good vegetable that humanity simply could not leave alone), and into the comment sections where someone decided a stranger's tomato garden needed their unsolicited expert opinion at eleven PM.

Everything in this episode is true. None of it is going to make you feel better about humanity. That's the deal. Keep Buggering On is connected to KBO Standard Supply — find us at k-b-o-standardsupplyllc.com — where the store is coming together one phrase at a time. We'll let you know when it's ready.

What is KBO Standard Supply? We make no-nonsense apparel for the disciplined, the relentless, and anyone who knows that a rough day is no excuse to quit. If you’re going to face the chaos of the world, you might as well look lethal doing it.
