Bobby is about to give the listeners a sneak preview when the Legend Rich Vos walks in the room to join in the fun. | Jay is watching the series "Task" which is set in the outskirts of Philadelphia. Their thick Philly accents remind Bob of Baltimore porn that he's currently enjoying. *To hear the full show to go www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!
