The Tom Barnard Show

Just when you thought the wave of celebrity deaths was over, we got hit with another one. Everyone's favorite football star, OJ Simpson, has died. He was known for his skill as a running back, his acting, and absolutely nothing else. We'd cope by eating a lot of candy, but Minnesota's Largest Candy Store is moving and we're still six months away from Halloween. April truly is the cruelest month. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Timberwolves, in an unusual break from Minnesota tradition, are doing well so far. What drove them to shirk our proud legacy of mediocrity we cannot say. What we can say is that there's good news: if such unorthodoxy is driving you to drink, you don't have to drink alone. Have your toddler pop open a bottle of scotch. You won't go to prison. Just don't be surprised if you lose visitation rights shortly thereafter. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
