Daniel does a wild set of facial exercises to get ready for the show. Also, he can no longer tolerate granola for a personal reason that needs to be discussed. I want to know what items you can never have too many of and we take some calls on this topic. Muscle confusion seems to be a myth and apparently I look miserable while I sleep. I want to know if anyone doesn't look back on their early 20s and feel they were entitled and also we discuss The Fisher King and Perceval. And more!
