A Show Called Hate

The hate boys return for what might just be *checks disclaimer* 'quite a good episode'. Join us, why not, for a discussion of the perils of free soloing and what happens when everything in marketing looks like a... you know... Also, we love bros running for office (just not on a national stage) and cat pedigree names.

Is there anything more sickening than man flu? What about hipster babies? Those smug, naturally talented hipster babies, lording it over us with their man flu. Gah! It's enough to make you wish for a man-putation...

Neigh, 'tis true! We may well have solved some of those pesky audio issues that were plaguing our podcast. Celebrate by stepping into our horsepital, and letting Peyo the Horse cure what ails you. Also on the table: weird videos of people eating online, the return of life hacks and electric shocks. Hay now!

After a mid-season break of (*checks watch*... five months!?) the boys are finally back, and ready to love and hate in equal measure. Join them as they cover topics as diverse and wondrous as public apologies, Raynaud's Disease, and that thing where a cartoon animal doesn't wear pants but all their relatives do. Also, there's a lot of talk about Sonic's muscular thighs. Do enjoy - and please pardon any audio issues. We're still working out the kinks in our new studio.

The hate boys are back at full steam for what was (genuinely) a super fun episode to record. Normally it's one hell of a chore... we can't imagine what listening to it must be like. Anyhow, join us, why not, for a thoroughly entertaining discussion about just how awful equations in adverts are, how not being horrible to people is NOT censorship (you jerk), and how Rayman doesn't actually like fantasy football. Truly shocking.

Breaking, scandalous news! Nich Angell leaves podcast under cloud! Jon distraught. Chris Ray seen 'drinking heavily, in public, in a state of undress and disarray'! What does it mean? Tune in, gentle listener, for all the sordid details.

Have you heard the word? It's coming home! Home, you say? Why yes, sir. It's been gone far too long and now it's back - home - where it belongs! Are you excited? Are you excited yet!? Home! It's coming home! No one will be spared when the time comes!

Be warned, there's an unhinged edge to this episode. Maybe it's something in the air, or maybe it's the single bottle of artisan Dutch beer the boys each consumed before going on air. Who knows? I mean, we're not scientists. We're idiots. So do enjoy us talking people who don't like fiction, expanded (yet limited) universes, and why you can't just tell people to F*** off. SPOILERS: because we live in a polite society and that would be bad. Also, it's possible we're talking a little too much about Star Wars of late. We blame Rayman.

How do you feel about garbled activism? Does 'design by committee' get under your skin? Hardly a fan of video games? If you've answered yes to many of these vitally important questions, then maybe we can help you. Let us take those hates, process them thoroughly, and express some much-needed love in return.

Jon's age-old rivalry with summer escalates this week, with summer holding back his arms while pollen works the ribs. Despite one third of the hosts nearly dying on air from his allergies, the hate boys soldier on in the sweltering heat for a pretty good episode, all things considered. Apologies for the delay. We've been off doing things, like making comics.
