We have arrived at the final episode of I Like Liking Things: An Exercise in Positivity. On this special finale, I speak to my wonderful friend Jen about the show, about the holidays, about things we like, and about how gross work from home people are (I am one!). Then, my magnificent sponsor GREG! of Greggie's Got Ideas fame comes on to tackle a topic that was at the very heart of wanting to start this show and this safe space: The DC Expanded Universe, specifically Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Justice League - free of the That Guy brigade! Greggie and I also kick around the bowling ball about liking things and life! Finally, I take some time to address the dozens and dozens out there who have made this show a dream come true.

The penultimate episode of I Like Liking Things: An Exercise in Positivity sees my midwest brothers from another mother(s) - Mike, Tank, and Adam of The Junk Drawer Podcast (https://thejunkdrawerpod.podbean.com/) - join me for the mother of all movie podcasts! We were all assigned letters, and we picked a movie that started with that letter (mostly *sly grin*), and chose a memorable or famous scene from that movie! Along the way we crack jokes, say inappropriate things, laugh ourselves stupid, and also take all of the pieces of The Irving Scale that Jon and I broke in episode 3-22 and then run them through a wood chipper.

Twenty years ago this year my friends and I took our love of professional wrestling and started our own backyard wrestling organization called the Wuss-Side Wrestling Federation, or W.S.W.F. For a few years there we got to live out our squared circle dreams on mattresses in my backyard. Joining me are show alumni Bob Smith, Danny, Joe, and Ziggy, as well as first timers James and our illustrious host and sound wrangler Jeff. We tell some stories and laugh and reminisce. Enjoy! • Unfortunately, due to some technical errors that we didn’t find out about until we went to master the show, there is some crunchy static and feedback echos that ultimately cost us the entire middle portion of the show. What you’re hearing is the first 18 or so minutes, and then the last 20 or so minutes. But! As we used to say back then, “It went better in rehearsal.” • Official show merchandise can be found at https://teespring.com/stores/greggies-got-ideas, along with a ton of clever original ideas! • For more positivity, follow me on Instagram at LikesLikingThings2018! • Like!
