Miller Morning Madhouse S2E5: Afterburners and Sunburners...
🎙️ Episode Title: Afterburners and Sunburners...
👥 Hosts: Jerry Pancake & Josh Scramble (with cameos from Broadway Beth, Joel, and Gianna “G-Eazy”)
🎧 Presented by: SoCoolShirts.com & All In Jest Trivia
💥 In this extra-toasty episode, the Madhouse crew recaps the Gary Air Show — Miller’s unofficial Super Bowl of sunburns, shitbags, and sketchy $20 driveway parking schemes. The Thunderbirds roar overhead while locals roast below, turning the beach into a battlefield of canopies, patio furniture, and pure chaos.
☀️ Josh reports live from the sand with survival tips: don’t fuck with the locals, bring water, and for the love of SPF, wear sunscreen unless you enjoy looking like graffiti-tagged ribs.
🚗 Meanwhile, the neighborhood parking wars hit full tilt — from friends “borrowing” driveways, to mystery suspects running over safety signs, to Miller’s favorite hustle: $20 cash, grass, or ass to park between a busted trampoline and a rusted-out Camaro.
🔥 Add in a live “shitbag count,” sunburn horror stories, and a PSA about not setting up your towel two inches from someone else, and you’ve got peak Miller madness.
