About The Less Desirables

Tim Beeman and Brian Attridge have been friends for roughly five plus years. The idea of “speaking into the can” was originally thought of over some drinks at the “Official Emerald Isle” of The Less Desirables, Finnigan’s Wake. The weekly sections are basically interests and hobbies of Tim and Brian. Check out our weekly podcasts on your PC (or iPad), listen to us at work, or upload it to your favorite listening device for the road. After all, we are your weekly weapon of mass distraction!
