  • COL639: LTAF: The Bacon Episode: Bobby Miller – “Ha Guys. Great subject BACON!!!!!” “Bacon favor Lube (NO !!!!)”
  • COL640: LoR: Chosen Family: dindin mooshi – “chosen Family is a privileged concept. I think of as a (remote) support group based on choice, circumstance, and shared interests, it is very difficult to make one, and sustain it. This a very difficult subject as people don’t know how to value family, friends, acquaintances, etc..”

COLFB424: BEAR: Play Lists

The Bear and Gaymer community learned this past week about the unexpected passing of Greg Ballard. As we mourn our collective loss, this week we present a COL Flashback to episode 424 from July 23, 2021. Join us as we listen to a special show of COL Episode 424 with the unforgettable Greg Ballard.

If you would like to contribute to the GoFundMe campaign to cover funeral expenses for our beloved Greg Ballard, click here. The donation campaign established will help his cousin cover the cost of funeral expenses with any overage of funds being donated in his name to the Trevor Project, a cause he deeply believed in having experienced prejudice and hatred in his youth. 

Greg followed up after recording this episode with us and provided the following comment from his previous collab channel on YouTube to the posting of the original COL424 episode.  GAMER: REDEFINED: So much fun being on the show! Great group of guys!

They are joined by special guest Greg from Men of the Den to discuss playlists: the music kind, not who you have planned to boink. What music do you play on your roadtrips?
