OSNAP: Creative Life Secretary
This week, Merrill sounds off about his irritation with Twitter conversations during Game of Thrones on Sunday nights. Kevin throws some love at the new (and old) episodes of Arrested Development. Then, they discuss the questionable future of Nikki Finke, who is lower than whale turds on the bottom of the ocean. Then, in an early news spotlight, Kevin takes an alternative approach in regards to the case of Kaitlyn Hunt and her trouble with the law, and Merrill responds with a rant about nightcore chipmunk music. Finally, things wrap up with an epic reading of the douchiest Craigslist ad ever created. Oh, snap!
