Episode 1031
February 22, 2010 A Delusional History of Petaluma
Essentially a tidal slough, the "Petaluma River" is like the northernmost finger of the San Francisco Bay, which gave the town its prosperity including its gold-paved streets (sadly all dug up by Dick on his last 2 visits). At the turn of the century all the lumber from northern California used to come through Petaluma to go to the rest of the world. It also used to be the world's largest exporter of toothpicks when big logs became naturally cut and sharpened into toothpicks as the river wound to a brackish slough. Such is the delusional and alcoholic history of Petaluma.
Fighting on the Couch
Ray A Monogold has not missed an episode of the Daily Giz Wiz for a couple of years now. Listening to Dick and Leo who are so generous with their wit and time is a real treat. He only wishes that they would do a weekend show. About the contentious lyrics of the Audible Theme, he thinks it's "I love fighting on the couch."
