Welcome back! We're delighted to launch season two with our most star-studded offering to date. After a brief hello from Mark, guest host Baseball Robbie presides over a veritable parade of comics during this very special episode recorded during the Savage Henry Comedy Festival. Featuring friends of Savage Henry including Alec Cole, Dave Eubanks, Louis D. Michael, and Gabby Jesus, and a blink-and-you'll-miss-it appearance by friend of the show Lauren Brenner.

It's a very special week at Savage Henry.  Author, chef, activist and all-around fantastic human Cheri Sicard joins Mark and Jason at the bar.  From the halls of justice to the dinner table, the gang touches on all things cannabis and Mark and Jason actually learn some things from the brilliant visiting luminary.  

Follow Cheri @cannabischeri and find her books and classes at Cannademy.com and Cannabischeri.com.

We're all beat after a thoroughly successful Savage Henry Comedy Festival.  Regulars Jessica Grant, Jason Merritt and Jay Reeder keep it loose after hours this week.  

The gang shares highlights from the Fest and recount their worst gift experiences as another holiday season looms around the corner.  

The one on his shoulders and the kind he was after in that video.

It's a star-studded evening  After a quick song about cocaine from Mark, Hall-of-Famers Jessica Grant and Evan Vest hop on stage for a quick chat about thrift shop scores, and what was up on Mark's corner while he was in Yellowstone.  After Jessica and Evan mosey off into the sunset, friends of the show Eric Fitzgerald and Patrick Redmond hop aboard the pod train for a rollicking discussion that ranges from roaming buffalo to tower 7.

If you're not at least a little offended by this one, you should probably listen again.  

We're flirting with social responsibility this week.  Trying to be good neighbors and spread important information. Harm reduction advocate Brandie and Jay sit down for a slightly more-serious-than-normal discussion of the dangers of fentanyl overdose, the miracle of narcan and the goals of harm reduction. 

We do get a little heavy, but returning champion Patrick Redmond offers a soothing blend of levity and gravitas, and co-host Jason Merritt makes sure no one forgets this is a comedy podcast.

This week we bid a fond farewell to writer, filmmaker and comedian Rale Sidebottom before he moseys out to Montana. Mark and Rale recount the What We Do in the Moonlight film shoot that left a forest trail looking like a crime scene, then Jason hops in as Rale shares a surprising story about an otter. In the grand finale, friend of the show and Savage Henry Hall-of-Famer Evan Vest gets the gang to share some of their most painful comedy memories.  

A mostly jolly episode, with a few dark turns (especially for any mouse listeners we may have) as Savage Henry welcome's Mark back from a long voyage. Hall-of-Famer and once and future host Jason Merritt, and friend of the show Shane Jensen fill out the panel as Humboldt comedian Scott Hoyle makes his first appearance on the podcast.
