The amount of joy this has brought me during a less-than-stellar time is definitely worth more than $60k so really, this man should be thought of as an economic engine.

Hard hitting, but goes down smooth. Now that’s what I call journalism.

A couple months late to the show but I'm glad I arrived.

I rarely comment on anything.

I have literal tears of laughter streaming down my face from this story. Is there any way you could follow up with venmo information of all the parties in this story?- The neighbor that recorded it, the Bieniek’s, the "lawn guy" that could "probably do it for cheaper"? I would never encourage this behavior but what's done is done and this is incredible. Thank you!

You can't write anything better than "I did like 95% of the job" - how is he not a character from Reno 911

I have to imagine lawn guy's insurer wouldn't cover him because it's outside his scope of work and he probably settled the case for peanuts causing the insurer to be out of pocket approx. $60k. Everyone's insurance goes up to cover these types of losses. Don't hire unlicensed contractors.

Nothing more expensive than cheap removal of hazardous objects.
