Episode 23. Arguably our finest show ever, although I personally would never make that argument. @PUNTE and @Brandon_ROTU highlight a botched audio playback segment while scrambling to find the Elusive Brad Childress Jazz Clip, and then chats ensue with “boots on the ground,” after discussing the latest Twitter feed sweeping the English-speaking world, starting with Lindsey Hockman, a Jets fan and Indianapolis native (our “Fat Hump” bureau chief) recovering from her team’s loss in the AFC title game. PUNTE discusses his upcoming Super Bowl weekend in Vegas as part of a charity effort for the Sharon Osborne Colon Cancer Program. @TheCajunBoy, our Louisiana native, comes in to talk about how much (or how little) the Saints really had to do with the post-Katrina rejuvination of the city. And we make a handful of prop bets that even Vegas would find ridiculous. Listen on the embedded player, or click on the red logo for the mp3 file, and subscribe to HOUSE OF PUNTE on iTunes.

Dennis Haskins, aka Mr. Belding from “Saved By The Bell” is going to be at the poker tournament, and Brandon says that he’s going to send me a Bayside T-shirt to wear in front of him. I’ve suddenly developed the great fear that Mr. Belding and I are going to wind up in a ditch someplace together, both completely naked. Sure, he’s an actor whose glory days are behind him, but what’s my excuse?
