186 | Shirley Gnome (Quantity Time)

My Summer Lair Chapter #186: What Is A Sentient Dildo? (yes you read that correctly…)

Yo! Welcome to My Summer Lair I’m your host Sammy Younan you (wait for it!) Gnome me. You know Gnome? You know? Those weird garden statues that no doubt come to life at night. 

Alright this isn’t an episode about my issues rather it’s focused on comedian Shirley Gnome.

She’s known for making humorous songs if you’ve seen Adam Sandler’s 100% Fresh (highly recommended) or hits from The Lonely Island classics such as Dick In A Box or I’m On A Boat that’s what Shirley does: catchy songs with wonderfully filthy lyrics that get stuck in your head.

Decoxification: is the LP, Quantity Time is EP and it’s Quantity Time that prompted the first time I’ve asked a guest What is Sentient Dildo?

Almost 200 episodes of My Summer Lair and I’ve never felt the need to ask that until now. So that right there: you know this is a special and fun episode. 

So if you want to know what a “Sentient Dildo” is then hit play and in time your ignorance will dissipate. Mine did.
