The Bent Sack Variety Hour

Comedy

Contrary to the name, The Bent Sack Variety Hour has very little variety. Listen in as your hosts, Mo Bent and Ryland Sack, hand over the podcasting reigns to the show-within-a-show called "The Les & Phil Radio Drive Time Forum Live On Line" (or L&P RDTFLOL for short). Join your geriatric hosts, Les Johnson and Phil Ip, as they present their AM radio style talkback show that they have presented for several decades. Including popular segments such as Secret Sound, Plotline Bling, and even the news! It's just like the AM radio shows that your dad (or grandad) listens to! This is attempted comedy at its most average. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
