Unscripted with Skip and Josh

Unscripted with Skip and Josh

Because the best conversations are unscripted: Two Canadian guys discussing their favorite topics from the world of pop culture and sports. While this show may be fairly new to you, in reality it has been going on for a very long time. There have been so many epic debates and conversations over the past thirty years that at one point we realized that we should be recording our conversations.
