We call it Steve the D.J. -- it’s a long story as to how we came up with the name. Every day, off we go to find records so we can feed Steve. Plus, he has a whiskey drawer. He’s the life of the party.
Baking Soda
It’s great for when we’re hanging out on a long bus ride and all you can smell is feet. And you can also use it as deodorant or toothpaste. But every now and then when we fly, TSA is like, "What the hell is this?"
