Drew recounts the horrifying experience of trying to record the hype-man intro. We try our hand at a game called “Playground Insults” where we try not to laugh while getting insulted. Finally, we finish the episode with a conversation about nudity in movies and TV. ***remember, this week we introduced #thenumberdropchallenge where you must record yourself trying to number drop in the most ridiculous way possible. You could number drop about the number of students in your youth group, your annual salary, how many cats you have, literally anything. Just be sure to get it recorded and post it to social media with the hashtag #thenumberdropchallenge *** CONTACT US: podcast@tobethechurch.com, facebook.com/exyouthpastors & twitter.com/exyouthpastors SUBSCRIBE ON: iTunes Google Play Stitcher
