In the Stacks with Barry & LaToya

It's another interview day at the Twin Lakes Library System and so that our loyal listeners get a dose of ITS we record the show in between interviews. Keep the children away from this one as talk is candid and censoring, not so much. Sarah joins Barry and LaToya on the show and helps complete the reverse Oreo.

It's not Thursday but LaToya wants to record the show anyway. With no show last week and LaToya's mood stable she feels that now is as good a time as any. However, Barry feels that she's unstable and he's not in the mood since it's not Thursday. To appease her he records the show but starts recording when she's out of the room. Much of the show is devoted to Charlie Sheen. Who hasn't heard of him going totally bonkers? See if you can catch the two breaks in the recording due to having to take care of library business. Sarah also joins the show as Barry tries to make light on a ginormous situation.

Just when you thought we'd said goodbye to in-studio guests and Stump the Chump we surprise you! Actually, Anthony Davidson, drummer for Pumpkin City and younger brother of show co-host, LaToya Davidson-Perez, makes a somewhat surprise visit to the show. After continually being ridiculed by Barry for his wearing of girl pants he feels the need to set the record straight and show up to the show in...unisex pants. This show is a gem as nothing is off-limits and LaToya is on air with two of the guys who know her best. And no, the abrupt cut off at the end of the show was no accident listeners just didn't get to hear all of Barry and Anthony's laughter at LaToya's expense.

We'd already used winging it in a title for this season but it certainly seems like the theme for the season. LaToya comes to the show empty-handed. Correction, she comes with a doughnut. Barry is ready to go and manages, as usual, to make LaToya look like a fool. Barry insults most of LaToya's immediate family especially her mom and boyfriend for not letting her watch the Super Bowl and what's an ITS show without talk of Lindsay Lohan!

Despite what may have seemed like a month-long break from the new season, Barry and LaToya are back. Or is it just Barry? This season's format seems to be a bit more conversational with even less preparation. But don't let that deter you from listening in to the often off-color and politically incorrect behavior of the co-hosts. Barry talks about himself. As usual. He also shares some breaking news with the audience. LaToya pretends to care. Join them for another exciting episode.

It's a new year but it's the same old LaToya (and Barry). She manages to offend everyone including Barry, her brother (Anthony), and friend (Joel). Will Barry ever view her the same way again? Will her brother forgive her? Will Joel still be her friend? A lot has happened since the last show which as a result makes this the longest show to date. Plus is it really goodbye to Mr. Golden Earring?! This aims to be truly the best year ever!

One can only hope that this episode is worth the wait and worth its weight. After work and sickness delays and despite the lethargic sweetness of lunch, Barry and LaToya come together for their first Christmas Special. Or is it the Special with no real reference? Sarah Davis returns as our seasonal chump. Does she finally win one? Does Golden Earring do the Dradle Song justice? And does Anthony really wear girl jeans? Listen to all this and more on the extended episode.

The final regular episode of the season shows employees that even librarians have opinions. Barry railroads LaToya's segment (as usual) and a new Chump plays Fairy Tale trivia. News of the Weird only gets weirder as human rights and sheer stupidity are discussed.

It's the Thanksgiving episode and Sarah Davis returns to be the chump. After her Halloween appearance will she find more luck with 'gobble gobble' trivia? News of the Weird is now a new segment on the show and you won't believe your ears. Hint: reptiles and domestic relations.

With the Veterans Day holiday AND Barry's birthday, the show has been delayed by one day. But boy what a difference a day makes! The hosts discuss why they couldn't and didn't record the show early and spend a great deal of time talking about the Brits. There's also a lot of whistles. LaToya gives a shout out to Lil' Joely and Barry tries to stump her with Brett Favre trivia.
