If you let it run (I don't advise it), he goes on to speak of his other true love, finally being asked to fill in as a middle school bingo caller. You read that correctly. For 10 year-olds on a recent Thursday night. At a table in the corner of a cafeteria. Halloween-themed!!
"Bucket list." Yep, you also read that correctly.
"Volunteer staff was not laser-focused.... It has to have structure if it's gonna work."
When he got home, he bought this:

"If called upon, I would do it again."
"Would I host bingo again? Yes, I would."
He only stated that twice, and not in response to any question from his co-host. (Speaking of whom, he made yet another odious oral sex reference about them/her at 36:03).
Spewak also noted that he often has to stop at a DC gas station bathroom on his way in the morning -- can't make it 90 minutes. He won't buy gas there ($$), and he complains they have now locked the bathroom door. He parks by the pumps so they think he's a customer. Asserts their act of locking the door is passive-aggressive. 32:13
God's work, I know, I know.
