153 - The Parent Trap (With Reese Roper & Joe Yerke)

2026/10/23

Once upon a time there was a podcast called Joe and Reese's Pickle & Boot Shop. It was full of nonsense, laughter, tears, and somehow caused The Squids to start their own show. This week, the Lake Skabegon Town Council managed to "Parent Trap" the hosts of that defunct podcast and bring them back together again. It's an episode filled with voicemail, welding, goats, utility bills, Jimmy Stewart impressions, Ruffled Feathers, the Interlinc Game, and more. Learn more about your ad choices.
