After a quick reconnection and sharing some sips (2:30) Kevin introduces Mitch, Paul, and J.P. to his pups. (3:00) The guys talk about their Christmas gifts of note. Mitch bought himself a new truck for Christmas and gives us a quick lesson on his former cars. Paul got some Dad Jeans and J.P. has audio proof of his gift (7:00) and of course Mitch makes his second Toobin reference of the season. 

(9:00) J.P. couldn’t pull the trigger at the store on a middle-aged item of choice but gets some advice from the follicly challenged guys on the show. Then a story (19:45) about one of the only times Mitch was actually mad at him. 

They discuss their Texas New Year’s Resolutions, (24:00) and agree that what they want to do most is getting to the Hill Country and seeing some live music wherever it is. 

A member of the crew has a birthday coming up (34:00) and after some talk from old Mazzio’s Pizza days they kick around his topic of choice (37:30). It gets a little deep for a little bit as they discuss the best and worst things about getting older.

The first This Week in Texas Sports and History (48:45) features the birth of Fort Hood and the time someone broke wind in their junior high Texas history class and it cleared the room. And there’s also two great Cowboys anniversaries, and a note on the life of the great Texan Barbara Jordan.
