We all use letters and numbers ever day and never stop to think about them. But that doesn’t stop Clinton’s brain from looking at them sideways. In this episode he questions everything about every single number after 13. It could leave you wondering about digits, too.

He also brings up an odd news story about humpback whales and somehow ties that in with his discussion of letters and numbers. Blame this whole digit dilemma on his odd brain.

comedy4cast #767: Odds and Ends - Digit Dilemma

Our regular cast of characters are all still busy working on this year’s big, multi-part story. Even Danny Hillcrest is unavailable. Although rumor has it Danny will be back very soon with some info on Summer movie. Until then, we’re once again daring to step inside Clinton’s mind to find out what’s bouncing around in there. Listen and be amazed.

This time, it seems that Clinton finds himself confused by everything that has to do with transportation. And we do mean everything.

First, he completely misunderstands the wording in a seemingly harmless TV commercial. The request the ad makes sounds reasonable enough — to most folks. But it soon lands our host in a lot of trouble with the law. To make matters even worse, while Clinton is trying to deal with that problem, he gets some shocking news. Someone has gone and changed the name of a beloved transportation icon. What? Why? Clinton has to find out. All this is enough to make his mind begin to question everthing that has to do with our highways and byways. He even begins to question the wisdom of the markings that guide us along our way.

You may never look at roads the same way again.
