Larson, an ice cream truck driver from Ohio, didn't become the king of Press Your Luck by chance. He had carefully studied the patterns of the game board and learned how to time his button presses perfectly to land on the high-dollar squares. Things I Learned Last Night is an educational comedy podcast where best friends Jaron Myers and Tim Stone talk about random topics and have fun all along the way.
