The Midnight Citizen 287: “Night Shift Intellectual”
Manage episode 480497419 series 32834

Join Mike on a rainy night in the suburbs of Birmingham, AL, as he sits in his parents’ garage, freshly unemployed, and ponders the next big move.
Really, instead of making any definite decisions, I get hung up on spotting “The Club” security bar on the steering wheel of somebody’s late model POS in a Walgreens parking lot — probably the first time I’ve seen one since the 90’s. Gets me thinking about why they stopped making them, or why they apparently still do, given their inherent security flaws — like, for instance, being ridiculously visible.
Also, didn’t Heather Graham have a Club in that movie Swingers? I investigate.
