------

All opinions and commentary are strictly the point-of-view of the speaker and based on their own life experiences. All characters are based on general life experience and not on any person or group in particular. While occasionally a real place, person, or event may be alluded to, the depiction is purely for effect.

Regarding Handpuppet World, no handpuppets were harmed in the making of this podcast. Don't try this at home however.

Also, Jerry is not a real person. Don't do anything he does. He isn't responsible!

No Stuffed animals were harmed in the making of Stuffy Corner. If anything, they gave us a run for our money at the mic.

Fake ads are not ads and the products featured are not real products. We are not really selling anything. This is a figment of our imagination and meant to be parody on modern advertising culture. Like seriously, ads on the backs of airline seats?
