When you're here, you're family. Special guest on this episode (no joke)- Boy George! #Remember9/12! And remember Bobi! (But please forget J asking about his d*ck)!  Don't worry, the poetry is on topic, but unfortunately, Batman can't compete with fettuccine alfredo. Wait, why are we talking about Prince? Maybe because he was an alien. Regardless, we all know Colorado lives on a stoney planet. Tune in next week to hear what the Sumerians have to tell us about gold... and the origin story of human life on Earth. 

Yes, we start out by talking about the weather... don't worry, eventually there will be poetry. No reason to be proud of the boys, although it is pretty interesting that white supremacy is not entirely white. Who knew? Speaking of whites, Burning Man was a sh%tshow! Hope you got the 80's movie reference... "Midnight Madness", btw, because I know you didn't. You're welcome. And don't think we're not going to tell you about the dinosaur shrimp! Another 80's movie reference- "Airplane"- Not for the soft-stomached. Please stop listening! We're definitely not billionaires, but at least one of us is out of the closet. Keith Richards is immortal! Do you believe in vampires? We do. Rest in Power to Sir Jimmy Buffet! (I think we all still blame the woman). But it was probably his own damn fault.

Yes, we remember the end of the last cast, and K.M. put the work in to answer last week's question about what happened to Michael Jackson's animals from the Neverland Ranch after his death. Here's what we know: Bubbles outlived Michael. Michael could have used a vet. Seems like Thriller could have used a vet, too. Madonna may be in Oklahoma, but J. Andrews is definitely in Colorado. And we are all aliens. You just got scienced, Karen! Silence is golden.... and black. Then it gets super gay! Respect Arthur Rimbaud & Walt Whitman. Learn some history, bitch! "Arrrr matey!" Pirates never dropped a grumpy. Let's end by getting to the root of it.

Choose the Sword and join us. Otherwise, grab your balls & f@ck your mother. It sounds crazy that a sword fight ended in death in this day & age, but it's not only true, it's also hilarious! There's a reason K.M. knows the difference between sword fighting and swashbuckling... not that there's anything wrong with that! "Tis only a flesh wound!" The Red Dress Run has been co-opted by bros. Surf's up dude! Then car racing... Then the Brittney Spears of football... Who nose? We do our best to discover the original champagne ass. Instead, we discuss llamas and and a chimpanzee. Rest in Power Rodriguez!

If you like to watch kids get hit by 60mph fastballs, check out the Little League World Series! Kids, you might not grow up to be a professional baseball player, but that's no reason not to follow your dream! 😎 Join us as we revisit one of the greatest baseball fights of all time! Eat your heart out, Howard Cosell! The lawnmowers are taking over! Oh, wait, no - the robots! And meanwhile ignorant humans are fighting themselves. DJ Colorado is disappointed with our poetry this week. Guess what the police department here in New Orleans have... Somehow J is convinced of a conspiracy theory that K.M. calls out as complete BS. And K.M. doesn't think the moon landing happened! 🙄 I guess we'll talk about cheerleading next week. Instead we'll mock sovereign citizens getting tased and arrested by rural cops. "What's the matter? Don't you like it?"

Rest in Power Pee-Wee! That talented man never jerked us around. If there's any Gen Z listeners out there, listen up. This is a literature podcast, so please read The Manchurian Candidate before you watch either of the movies. It's okay to enjoy the idea of our next president to run the country from behind bars. He is a Florida Man after all (although he may be the reason behind the billboard stating: "She's your daughter, not your date.") If you're wondering what leprosy is, just look it up yourself... Shoutout to Joe Thomas! Speaking of hippopotamuses... There's nothing wrong with being a big girl. "Tell'm Large Marge sent ya!" #TeamLizzo

Summer camp for billionaires is definitely creepy, but McDonald's coffee is definitely less than $4 (Don't bother looking it up). J can't help insulting African-Americans, but don't worry- he ties the dots together. If you're worried about A.I. becoming a better writer than you, you should probably stop writing... But then!!! K.M. gets terrorized by A.I. poetry. And yes, Tom Jones makes a special guest appearance. Then some poems, but WHO CARES!?! DJ Colorado takes us to the darkest depths of internet conspiracy theories waaaay too quickly!!!! And with the kind of confidence that every parent should instill in their children. Amen.

We start with J Andrews coming. (Spelled correctly). This beautiful couple may continue to come across as strong, but all our hearts mourn the loss of Plant Camp. You think that tree going down was bad? Just wait. The news are c*nts. They treat a tree as more important than human life. We all know J loves nature more than humanity, but what about if a tree falls on a teenager? Seriously though, we all have tramp stamps. Science fiction writers sculpted the existence we are. And then Sofia and the other AI robots decided to take over! Philip K. Dick gets the final word. 

Access to Tools, and mushrooms. Early on K.M asks if J drugged him. It turns out, he did!!! Mushrooms!!! Although K.M. admits to being heavily influenced by the magic mushroom, it quickly becomes clear so is J. Together, they attempt to honor and chronicle Stewart Brand's counter culture icon and book series. Basically, we attempt to talk hippie shit from the 60's and 70's while drunk and on psychedelics. It's about what you would expect with J repeating himself endlessly, K.M. wondering what's happening and getting distracted by the possibly that William S. Burroughs fucked little boys. Thank Bacchus, Colorado steps in and wonderfully details the amazing achievement and work of Stewart Brand's "The Last Whole Earth Catalog, Access to Tools. After all, it was J's childhood.  

Please ignore our pre-cast banter... DJ Colorado certainly did. We clean up a few things from last week then move on to current events. It turns out Tori Amos is still alive and kicking. (Who knew?) Turns out the show was amazing. Let's let the lady on the cast describe the female entertainer masturbating on stage. Then we go DEEP!!! But we come back to the surface. Thanks Ringo! The Most Deserved Death is a petty good book title! BREAKING NEWS!! Rest in ignorance you clueless explorers. But seriously, let's take a moment to question each other when it comes to our ability to be cannibals. Shout out to all the little chubby ones! I think we can all agree that peace in the Middle East should have happened decades ago. This ain't a political podcast, it's a literary podcast- and that's why we bang on the table! There is no tip-toeing around grammar! So anyways...
