It’s Christmas here in these parts, doncha know? We celebrate Christmas all year long ’round these parts. Christmas is always in our hearts. In other words, our Christmas episode is 4 months late. Oops!
Not much Yuleing in our Christmas episode, though. So what did we fill the void with?
Virtual Nascar! Better Podcasts than This One! What Will You Do when Society Falls! Do you Know Your Neighbors!
Also, Walter Lure, Cult Movies, and National Lampoon!
This month, the sound quality takes another dive down the shitter. I’m not blaming anyone but it’s not our fault! Also, we dropped carrier twice during the conversation. Ah! A modern modem reference!
This month, we take a look at the major holiday nobody really cares about, Thanksgiving. Let’s face it, friends, all non-religious holidays (and most of the traditions on the religious ones) are total BS. Made up excuses for retail price gouging and shopping riots. Lame parades and boring food. Relatives who don’t care if you live or die and excessive alcohol. Ain’t it great! So stop grousing and go enjoy yourselves, you dumb shits! (But everyone else still secretly hates you).
This month, we take a look at sex by mail, shopping riots, pizza toppings, the Ramones, why are stores open on Thanksgiving?, there’s better deals in December than on Black Friday, and “Thanks Cogan”, whatever that means. My handwriting sucks.
This month we take the easy route and do Halloween! Yes, next month we’re doing Thanksgiving, and then Christmas. What the f*** are we going to do next year after the holidays? In fact, what are we going to do NEXT October?
Anyway, this month, we’re all about traditions. Now that Halloween has turned into just another bs retail holiday, how do we celebrate it these days? What traditions do we do? Why do we keep talking about our family members by name as if anyone out there listening knows who Gavin is and why he lives with Ron? Or have we just given in and accepted that there’s nobody out there listening?
Highlights – our Halloween costumes (Dave forgot one – he went as a dog one year), hayrides and corn mazes, apple festivals, haunted houses, our favorite candy, the least popular candies, and the biggest Halloween topic, Gallagher
It’s football season at last! This episode, Dave plays the person who does not enjoy football, while Ron tries to convince him that it is the greatest sport, ever. Well, that was the plan. Turns out Ron is really only a casual fan and Dave still doesn’t give two shits who wins the Super Bowl.
Anyway, we also discuss why you should never get your kids involved with sports, how to win at fantasy football, cheerleader camps, and how to make football safer (is it too late for gene splicing?) Hey, look, football!
Every year, during the summer, it happens – it’s summer!
This month, we get sick of Skype’s terrible audio quality and experiment with Facebook’s terrible audio quality. Maybe next month it will be better?
Anyway, it’s hot. We discuss summer festivities, fireworks, yeast (no, really), the air intake of my car, pools, Ron’s stand-up comedy, my band, dogs licking themselves, weight loss, how long should a vacation be, camping, Jeeps, UFOs, and pissing. And I cut the part about Lithium.
We recorded an episode early this month but Dave had the “suck” knob turned all the way up on Norr’s mic. So we recorded a replacement! We covered many of the same topics and went way off the rails as usual.
In this episode: Movie rentals, project cars – fix ’em or sell ’em!, Satellite TV in the 80’s, mergers and acquisitions, Star Wars, party movies, renting movies for little kids, Metal is kinda lame, the Google Image Search cyber-stalking game, Air BnB, and video games.
