The Legend of Omar, Carrie Fisher & Ruining Your Childhood

We may still be a bit tipsy from all the holiday foods given our crazy rants in this episode. We open the podcast discussing Omar’s Exotic Birds, a random local business that has captured our imagination. We ponder about its origins and speculate how Omar’s Exotic Birds came about, stretching all the way back to the founding of Orange County itself. We give a brief tribute to Carrie Fisher and reflect on the dark year that 2016 has been, taking all our childhood heroes. We end the episode taking a fresh look at childhood films and stories and how messed up they actually were. We argue how screwed up stories like Rudolph the Red Noise Reindeer really is. A fitting end to 2016, ruining all that we hold dear in our childhood.
