More outrageous locker room stories from the 1970s—when it was a different era and the rules of mischief were, let’s say, flexible. Fan-favorite “California Beautiful,” the school track star from Episode 3, makes a triumphant return and once again wreaks havoc on an unsuspecting coach.

Having learned well from seniors like California Beautiful, chaos quickly follows. Craig enthusiastically “welcomes” the new freshman athletes with classic locker room towel-snapping, herding them into the infamous towel cage as hilarity erupts.

Then comes one of the Bud’s most legendary stories—the story of all stories. During a track meet, Craig locks himself inside the announcer’s booth, cranks the volume to maximum (so loud that even nearby baseball games can hear), and begins providing his own wildly inappropriate play-by-play. His colorful and over-the-top commentary—especially about the famously self-promoting pole vaulter “Glom”—sends the crowd into uncontrollable laughter while the coaching staff reacts in absolute horror.

Described by Ron as one of the funniest things he’s ever witnessed, total chaos breaks out as the coaching staff scrambles to shut it down and chases Craig around the venue.

A true Boomers on the Edge classic.

In this episode, guest host Keith joins Craig and Ron to reminisce about a friendship that began in kindergarten in the 1960s. The stories go way back—so far back that Keith and Craig once lived next door to each other and even shared their very first bath together as one-year-olds.

The conversation then turns to a legendary tale involving the Buds—Kenn, Ray, John, Keith, Craig, and Ron—and a Friday-night tradition at Carmens, an all-you-can-eat restaurant famous for its fish. Kenn, in particular, took full advantage of the deal. Because the restaurant required plates to be completely cleared before serving more, Kenn would discreetly hide uneaten French fries under his napkin. The staff quickly learned to dread his arrival, knowing they were about to lose money on the sheer amount of fish he could consume.

Kenn would settle in for hours, loosening his belt and even slipping off his shoes to maximize comfort—and capacity. One night, as the feast dragged on, one of the Buds decided to end the smorgasbord with a prank, making off with Kenn’s prized Adidas Country shoes. The result? A 50-year-old mystery that remains unsolved to this day. Who stole the shoes?

Join us for a laugh‑filled stroll through old friendships, 1970s traditions, and the unforgettable night the shoes went missing.

Guest host Keith jumps in with Kenn, Craig, and Ron as they rewind to the 1970s for another round of math‑class chaos. Back in the same infamous classroom from Episode One—where Craig first unveiled his “artistic talents”—the crew relives two stories that have only grown funnier with time.

First up is Teddy, the class nerd, who dares to complain to the teacher about earning only 98% on his test. Ron, fed up with the whining, blurts out, “Come on, Teddy.” Teddy spins around and unleashes his fury—at the wrong student. He starts screaming at the football team’s quarterback, a guy who could flatten him in seconds, and even challenges him to a fight after school. The class erupts in laughter, things spiral out of control, and Kenn laughs so uncontrollably he’s told to step out if he can’t pull himself together.

Next, the “Buds” revisit the infamous day Kenn’s curiosity cost Ron dearly. After test results were handed back, Kenn abandoned his usual front-row seat and sprinted to the back of the room to check how everyone did. Spotting Ron’s test, Kenn grabbed it and ran to the teacher, proudly pointing out that he had the same answer—except Kenn’s had been marked wrong. The teacher promptly informed them that Ron’s answer was wrong too, resulting in Ron’s test score dropping to a D.

Ron is still complaining about it fifty years later.

Hilarious. Legendary. And proof that some math class moments never fade.
