PODCAST – Monday, November 16: Florida Week Begins On Dumb Ass News; Meeting Mr. Pickle; Cactus Fail

Florida Week kicks off in Dumb Ass News, but first, a recap from AJ leaving the box on Friday. He was interviewed immediately by Swipe, who blew his lead off question, and then lost his place. Then, a Florida man is attacked by a gator while hiding from police. (0:00)

Another character we met during AJ in a Box, was Mr. Pickle. Chaz and AJ tracked him down, and asked him about his mysterious jar of pickles, and why he was trying to poke AJ with a stick. (8:35)

A cow interrupted a city council meeting, and a poor cyclist fell into a bed of cacti during a race. (15:03)

AJ lived in a box for 24 hours outside McDermott Chevrolet and Lexus of New Haven listening to “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” on repeat. Thanks to the Chaz and AJ Tribe, we raised over $38,000 for the Chaz and AJ McDermott Chevrolet and Lexus of New Haven “Toy Drive”! THANK YOU!
