The Richley brothers soldier through some technical difficulties to bring you this episode. Listen in as they discuss not one, but two Florida men, complete an Avengers mad lib for the ages (Is "Black" the best color for Widow? What is Thor really the god of?) and utterly fail to solve The Case of the Wooden Bridge. Good thing they're only attempting to solve pretend crimes.

The Richley brothers run the gamut in this week's episode. From planning a hypothetical trip to Las Vegas with the incomparable Jeff Goldblum to making sure the totally comparable Dave Coulier cranks out those license plates, Joe and John can't help themselves. But, wait...there's more! The two quadragenarians are completely stumped by The Case of the Dead Broker as well as how many piece of fried chicken can comfortably fit into a grown man's trousers.

Despite some early technical snafus, the Richley brothers cannonball into season 2's midway point with their usual gusto. John makes things difficult as he tries to weave Dolly Parton into The Golden Girls Universe and give Florida a new nickname. Joe, on the other hand, paints a glorious word picture and describes a trip to the "City of Sin" with none other than Dorothy Zbornak and lets us know what Mustafa (from Florida) "proudly declares" (hint: it's not bankruptcy).

Another remotely recorded episode, this one almost has it all. That's a gross overstatement. This episode does actually discuss a lot; including, but not limited to, what Judge Reinhold would do at a wedding, a drink Joe says, "tastes like lightnting", the first ever "John's Sleuthing Corner" segment, the activities of "King Florida" and a completely random Phoebe Cates reference. How much would you pay for an episode like this? A nickel. Tops.

On the cusp of jetpacks, the Richley brothers seek to finally identify the "ultimate superhero" and to determine what a 68 year-old Floridian does with barnacles. In addition, Joe's feelings towards Mickey Rourke and his "ham hands" can no longer remain hidden, but come bursting forth. Listen in and join the celebration of (unofficial) National Gary Day! Disclaimer: At some point, Joe claims The Flash as being a part of the MCU. This, like many things the brothers claim, is wildly incorrect. To the

Listen in as Joe plans out his self-proclaimed "greatest crime ever" and as the duo puts their crime solving skills to their test in Joe's Mystery Corner and The Case of the Whispering Finger.
