Stop Digging, Kid

A caller named Chad told Howard that he was digging in his backyard and found a human skull, and now he’s afraid that his dad had something to do with it. Chad explained that his dad works in “construction,” and once, after he got in a heated argument with a neighbor whose dog kept crapping in their lawn, the neighbor mysteriously disappeared. Chad confessed that he was afraid to confront his dad, as “that’ll just make another skull in the backyard” – even his mom wants him to keep it quiet. While Howard thought Chad should go to the police, Artie – who is from New Jersey – suggested that Chad listen to his mother and not rat his dad out.
