Listen... I take no responsibility for the name... Derek takes the Lads on a grand tour of Hawaii and its... just odd rules involving the islands and the whether or not the man from Minons is allowed to sink them. Brace yourselves as the clock is about to strike midnight! And Watch as our magical carriage ofa podcast returns to its pumpkin shape! (I don't know what I'm saying anymore...) #ThisIsStatehood

Can YOU fingure out the title? Join the Lads as they explore, yet another forgotten state! Iowa may be relitively close to us here in the Midwest. But do we sure forget it's there! Also!

Rhode Island is the smallest state but it surely didn't disappoint. Anthony gives the lads several new ways to look at life and may have lost his mind along the way.

What better way to mark our second biggest mile stone with the largest state???

We're officially in the final stretch! #ThisIsStatehood

Some say that the stateof South Carolina might just be TOO sexy. Others might not know what you're going on about... 2/3 of the lads are in the latter camp...

Will also takes us on a detour with a rare Statehood Abroad! #ThisIsStatehood

Ahh Arkansas, with all your... Stuff... I'm sure that you have... Probably... Okay, So Arkansas doesn't have a whole lot going on.
