Lies, lies and more lies! Co-host, Mike Ford, and I tell Tall Alaska Tales as we prepare for our Big Alaska Show Tall Alaska Tale Off. That's where you tell the tale - we're bored with ours! And here's a little spoiler alert ... we'll have prizes! (That we're still eligible to win!)

Plus, we threw in a clip from the week before with Chad Carpenter, hence this week our sign was given priority! Check out our podcast and have some fun!
