We're all fairly buzzed and pretty exhausted from the show Merit Parcel had played the night before a little bit. They discuss the idea of being an escort.

  • 11 "A Gallon Of White Claw"

    Originally aired November 21, 2019. Special Guest David Johansing joins us for another meandering  discussion. Loren expresses his frustration for the phrase "stop  resisting" and how it's used before one has been placed under arrest.  They then discuss awkward talkers. Whether it be a close-talker, a  lingering-hugger and people who are domineering about your eye contact.  Ron describes his "Space Dick" dream and the boys do fake commercials. Then we talk about local politics for a little while and then onto simulation theory!

  • 09 Gene Machine

    Originally aired November 6th, 2019. They're back with a hard hitter this week. "Gene Machine" is here! In this episode they talk about if self-help people are full of shit or not, give some props to HBO for getting Adventure Time back on the air, Loren talks about his nipples and they all ponder the ambiguity of right and wrong from several hypothetical perspectives. They don't find what actual *is* right or wrong, but they find that more details one has with will drastically change what is good or bad. Between good and bad, and right and wrong, one will find nuance.

  • 08 Halloween Special: "Crispy Timmy"

    Originally aired October 30th, 2019. Eight episodes in, the gang wants to try a live-stage podcast, but doesn't quite nail it. What they do end up doing really well is having a shitload of bar-sounds in the background, not hearing each other very well and telling some personal spooky stories. Loren starts with a comedic retelling of a real horror story that happened to him, and as the stories go along they become gradually more spooky.
