Join us this week as our Mystery Guest reacts in wonder to the news that Cope and VK can read! Also, the mystery guest was invited to try out for the Cincinatti Reds, which is an achievement, but also no one really likes the Cincinatti Reds, which is something that no reasonable person can dispute.

Be aware that there is a surprisingly in-depth discussion of the Star Wars Universe led by VK, which is the least surprising part of the surprising discussion. I need to check just how far in the male direction our audience demographics skew and maybe get a good discussion of Gilmore Girls going or something to try to bend the demographic curve back toward something like normal.

PRODUCER NOTE: This is actually the first episode where we legitimately used the language beep and there is one instance where a - as Stee would say - barnyard swear pops up, but given the context, I thought it was worth leaving (mostly) in. Just be forewarned.

In this weeks BIG COMEBACK episode after SPRING BREAK, Cope and VK actually did some basic show prep to make sure they don't say anything that is wildly incorrect about our mystery guest's youth and young adulthood, which is laudable and to be encouraged. We may actually get this podcast moved from "amateurish" to legit "amateur" yet!

This week's mystery guest is an adult human who is gainfully employed at South Christian! There may be math involved, so, trigger warning. Also, Tom Izzo catches some strays, and Chick-fil-a notches another win in the great fast food chicken war.

This week's sponsor is Rozema Homes, where Josh Rozema will build you a tesseract home that will allow you to manipulate items in the past like Matthew McConaughey in Interstellar. But only if you build on a cul-de-sac, I think.

Drop us a line at rtbo@schs.org if you want to share any Stee stories, complement Producer Marc, of offer constructive (or even deconstructive) criticisms of our hosts.

In this episode of Roll The Balls Out, Producer Marc gets a nice email and then gets absolutely obliterated when VK reads some of his... unfortunate student poetry from the 90s. In other news, Mrs. Wierenga just jeopardized her position as Producer Marc's favorite teacher from his time at South. It should also be noted that whatever the poem lacked in lyricism and balance, it made up for in factual accuracy.

Also we might go to an every-other-week schedule because it's soccer season and VK needs the extra time to complete his pregame beauty regimen. Look good, play good, right coach?

This week's Mystery Guest actually did grow up in Kalamazoo, which is different from Mrs. Westra, who we learned a few weeks ago definitely did NOT do that. We also learn that there's an elephant elevator at Madison Square Garden in New York City, that our guest once helped to outfit Justin Bieber for a night on the town in NYC, and we come as close as we've ever come to having a guest storm off the podcast in a rage.

(And of course, we offer our congratulations to the SCHS Women's Varsity Basketball team on a fantastic season!)
