    Ped, Chad and Tim go live from a float during the Sar Spangled Spectacular parade in Storm Lake for this episode! The boys had an absolute blast entertaining and interacting with the crowd while discussing 4th of July memories growing up, a take on umbrellas, best things to receive as a parade spectator, and what you think of when you hear the word MURICA! Burk joins for the satellite segment and answers the same question before Adam gets super nostalgic and Burk joins for the adventure. The show returns to the parade where the boys draft their all-time 90s NBA teams to close. Hut Hut! Love y'all.
