In this engaging episode of "Spirits and Stories with Donald Dunn," host Donald Dunn and guest Bob Lament from Static Radio take listeners on a rollercoaster ride of emotions, laughter, and profound insights. Starting with a somber note reflecting on the unpredictable journeys of life, they quickly pivot to the core of today’s dialogue: the cathartic power of humor and storytelling in facing life’s adversities.

Bob reminisces about the genesis of his show at the brink of the new millennium, sharing anecdotes from the Y2K scare to the inception of internet radio, predating the podcast boom. Their dialogue meanders through tales of college radio days, the evolution of their craft from analog to digital, and the comedic relief found in the mundane aspects of daily life and work. From discussions on workplace humor and the absurdity of HR policies to the therapeutic value of cursing in high-pressure environments, this episode explores the nuances of human experience through the lens of two seasoned storytellers.
