While Dustin’s Seattle sports teams continue to send him on perilous emotional rollercoasters, we also break down the nightmare of public school schedules, the difference between a mall and shopping center, 2 pounds of salmon, how raising teens is the equivalent to being sent into war, and raising young kids.  What’s the difference between a mall and a shopping center? - Tell us at Dustin Nickerson Comedy Fans Facebook Group: http://www.facebook.com/groups/dustinnickersoncomedy Enjoy the show!

Backseaters, our eyes have been opened and we can’t look away.
