our monkeys, my circus: a dad's tale

It's another Our Monkeys, My Circus Podcast, and on the latest episode, the eight-year-old and I talk about Super Bowl 50. In a shocking development, he and his four-year-old brother didn't even know which teams were playing (one of them -- I won't say who -- thought it was a soccer game between four-legged animals). Which probably makes their predictions about as accurate as those folks who actually get paid to pretend they know what they're talking about.

In other news, we get an update on the eight-year-old's basketball team, and why I've started calling him Dennis Rodman. (Fun fact: granddad once followed Rodman into a public bathroom to get an autograph. If that happened today he'd almost certainly be arrested.)

Other topics: the magic of a late-night Chili's run, Harry Potter, video games that inevitably lead to one or two crying kids and the veracity behind those Ben Franklin farting memos (not a typo).
