We drove up to Saugatuck, Michigan for Labor Day Weekend with Tracy Tyler to chill and hang out at Marc’s cousin’s lovely place. We were excited to go see what all the fuss was all about. After all, Saugatuck sounds a lot like of other things. The place certainly earns its title as the “Fire Island of the Midwest.”
We tried using a contact microphone on Tracy on the car trip which added more noise than anything else, so please accept my apologies for such a noisy show.
Our raucous road trip started on the south side of Chicago as we tried to find the Skyway bridge but missed the exit. In fact, we missed almost every exit on our road trip but we made it there and back.
Along the way we chatted about the intriguing choice of Sarah Palin as the vice presidential nominee. We are confused by McCain’s choice and we try our best to figure out just why he picked her. We really didn’t know to much about her other than she was a former beauty queen and under investigation for ethics. What do you think of her and why or how did he pick her? We’d like to hear what you think.
Listen as Tracy recounts wild adventures from the hot Melrose Place-like suburban apartment complex where she lives. Tracy just might earning a reputation that will give Heather Locklear some competition.
A big thanks to our hosts Jack and Phil, Grant and Alan and fellow guests Mark and David. And a thanks to Colton and Michael who met up with us for lunch. We had a blast and you all made our visit so memorable.

I love that little kids ask you if your a boy or a girl! (In my opinion your a goregeous woman) I thought I was the only one who gets asked that! Good to know I’m not alone. 
Hope yall had fun in SucknF*ck Michigan. Loved the audio quality. Geostud is right it really makes it feel all the more like a road trip. Great show boys!

September 2, 2008 at 10:53After hearing how that car ride went, I’m grateful that you guys made it up here in one piece! I’m glad you were able to make it, and that you enjoyed yourselves. We had a blast, and our house (et al) had a great time meeting you all. Glad that Tracy was able to get to the dunes for some “push push in the bush.” Talk to you soon. Take care, Phil (and Jack)

Fun show guys — at least when “indoor voices” were used. My favorite show featuring Tracy so far. I enjoy her stories, but I don’t like her voice and what comes off as forced laughter.

September 3, 2008 at 10:44I love Tracy! She may be a scary driver but she made it there and back. I love that throughout the show you can hear Marc in the back say things like, “WATCH OUT! and “This is the slow lane.” I hope you guys had a great time. I am sure Tracy helped “Suck’n'F*ck” live up to its name.

September 4, 2008 at 04:53This was such a fun show. I felt like I was in the car with you guys. I’ve made that trip to Saugatuck so many times I could do it in my sleep. In fact, I have a few times.

September 1, 2008 at 23:56I don’t think the noise is bad at all. On the contrary, it supplements the road trip experience. Can’t wait to finish listening to the show tomorrow!
