What’s your name and where do you live?
Nick Armes (AKA “Armies”). St. Pete, FL.

When did you start listening to TBTL? How did you find the show?
Many moons ago, Jake from Chicago (AKA “The Perfect Daddy”) kept playing the show in our dorm room. I thought it was annoying at first, but the more I listened, the funnier it became. Once we left for the semester, I just had to keep listening. And the rest is history -- 13 years filled with hilarity, skyjinks and hotdogs!

How would your friends describe you?
Very passionate, full of energy, and usually smiling. Witt- adjacent and self-aware enough to not make corny jokes but does it anyway.

What was your favorite cereal when you were a kid? Is it still your fav?
Cinnamon Toast Crunch and gosh darn it, it absolutely is still my fav.

What food do you love to eat the most of? 
Pizza. It’s not the most original but even if I’m stuffed, I will always find room for a slice. Or three.

What’s the best or worst nickname you ever had?
“Rudolph.” I had a pimple on my nose in fifth grade.

If you could play one song on TBTL, what would it be?
One More Time by Daft Punk. The intro, hook—it all just comes together and it’s a helluva bop.

What’s a special skill you have that you’re most proud of?
I have this seemingly limitless supply of energy and am always ready to smile and make someone’s day.

What’s a special skill that you *wish* you had?
Playing the piano. Anyone who pulls out a guitar at a party is usually thrown out. You pull a grand piano out, like the guy in that one Far Side cartoon? You’re a hit!

If you were driving down the street and you saw Luke and Andrew on the sidewalk, what would you yell at them as you drove past?
Come to St. Pete and I can get you into baseball games for free!

Can other Tens find you on social media? If so, how?
Yes! I’m on Facebook and Instagram.
