Former Chicago mobster (allegedly for entertainment purposes) talks about life, past crimes, Chicago culture, mob culture and generally tries to help save the lost kids of the internet. Mr. V streams on Reddit under the account LibbyNator if his dopey computer guy Vinchenzo doesn't mess up his setup. If he offends you, Mr. V will send a personal video apology if he feels it's legit. God bless the nuns of Sacred Heart Convent, god bless the Bears, and God bless all you kids who should stay off the internet and read a book instead. Above all, Mr. V says don't be like him. All the money, the dames, the parties, the cars, the drugs and booze cannot compare to the beautiful soul you have inside you.

EP082 - Kids Build Their Own Economy at the Farmers Market
Monday May 10, 2021
Monday May 10, 2021
I had a chance to help out at a farmer's market over the weekend, and I delighted in watching a group of kids - mostly about 4th grade level - set up their own booths and sell their wares. It was glorious!
Out of nowhere they naturally created their own little economy by purchasing products from each other as they had a little extra profit burning holes in their pockets.
Call-in from Yak Horseman and several mailbag letters covered as well!

Thursday May 06, 2021
Thursday May 06, 2021
I don't care who you are, that Joe Biden photo with the Carters is whacked. The Carters look like little puppets and the Bidens look like giant freaks. What's the deal?
Turns out some people took offense for things that I never said. I'm not a political person! Please chill, listen to some Sinatra and have a scotch.
Call-ins from Yak and Georgie too!

Friday Apr 30, 2021

We're not a hard-core sports podcast by any means, but when the Bears have a chance to break the quarterback curse via the draft, we've got to take notice. Justin Fields is the latest hope, and at least for now, we Bears fans can bask in a bit of daylight as we hope for the best.
We also fielded the longest and strangest mailbag question of all time. Georgie Girl call-in as well!

You've heard about my ambulance, otherwise known as my "get out of dodge" home on wheels, and I've been relatively open about it's reason for existing: The Coming Zombie Apocalypse!!
But have you heard about some of my other preps? Today I talked about my "internship" on a farm so that I can learn the skills of survival. Last year I helped plant crops, cultivate a two-acre garden, raise chickens and rabbits, and just generally "live off the land."
Are YOU prepared for the zombies?

EP073 - Mad Respect for YouTuber The Report of the Week Reviewbrah!
Monday Apr 26, 2021
Monday Apr 26, 2021
Much like my own show, people tune in the The Report of the Week on Youtube and they wonder "what the HELL is this?!" The skinny little fellow known as "Reviewbrah," who is the sole talent on his food review channel, is odd to look at and odd to listen to (again, like ME).
Trust me - just give this fellow a bit of your time and you will be pleasantly surprised. Once you get over his uniqueness, you will likely fall in love with his style, as have I!!
We also had great call-ins from Yak and Jeff Woodward. Happy Monday!
