Episode 323: The Spotlight's on Prowess

The Dive Down

This week Stan and Dave discuss their upcoming road trip comedy as they prepare for the Spotlight Series: Secret Lair this weekend in Indianapolis. Dave is in love with Andrea Mengucci's takes on Prowess — and even tries to learn a little from them. Stan has thoughts, questions, and feelings. A pact to split the tournament winning prize is made. Other hilarity ensues.
