Hello, ya little Miller Lites! On episode 158 of HINKY, we’re pretty sure we’ve created a new catchphrase (and no, we’re not trying to make fetch happen).

We found our new fave summer snack in Everybody Tries, and Sara tells us the history of America’s largest gas station for the HINKY History Lesson. What else do we get into?
