In this episode, Tony and Kevin take just enough time to explain why it’s good we’re not livestock, if indeed we’re not, which we probably are. Sigh. Anyway, the three episode segments are quite jolly. First, we return for the second part of “RV Rapture,” in which Satan negotiates a pretty sweet, if hellish, deal on a fleet of RVs. Next, Melania Trump, looking for something to mar down in Mar-a-Lago, enlists the reluctant help of Spot the Sales Dog, who insists on using his Black Lab digging skills only for Good. Finally, we hear once again from Dick Heaves, travel guru star of radio and television, this time being interviewed by Roger Basement about an arctic cruise, where the clients are left to draw on survival skills they don’t really possess. You know—like livestock!
Tony Flinn, known around the model railroad track in his basement as “Professor of English, Emeritus,” recently retired from Eastern Washington University to age in place, like an old car up on blocks in the barn, convenient for climbing behind the wheel and saying “Vroom! Vroom!” He and his co-host and co-producer, Kevin Decker, have been writing and performing in “Men in Charge” since probably 2014, or even earlier, depending on whether you’re using the Julian or Gregorian calendar.
Kevin Decker, Professor of Philosophy, was left holding the bag when Tony Flinn recently retired from Eastern Washington University. That bag was full of cats. At first, he thought they were cute, but then they woke up and started mauling him. It turned out that the cats were mountain lion cubs, often referred to incorrectly as “cougars.” One had rabies. From his now-permanent hospital bed, Kevin writes for and co-produces “Men in Charge,” the title of which may or may not be ironic
