Blowing Up!

On this episode, Veve joins as guest host as we do a blind taste test of different Oreos. What do they taste like? Do they taste good? Let's find out! Flavors include (SPOILERS) Swedish Fish, Pumpkin Spice, Birthday Cake and Hydrox (the original Oreo?). If you have an idea for a topic email us at [email protected] , tweet us @blowinguppod, or just post on our Facebook page!]]>

We talk about the Kapture wristband which records audio in a loop so you can always save what you just heard...or CAN you? We also talk about wearing a wire, the apple iPhone 7 not having a headphone jack, Pimp My Ride, He-Man, and probably some other stuff I can't think of right now. Chris from 10 Drink Minimum podcast guests. You can watch that show over at 10drinkminimum.com on Sundays at 6pm MTN time!]]>

We talk and taste the 90s throwback sodas Surge and Crystal Pepsi. Also discussed is nostalgia in general, and other 90s things: A Goofy Movie, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, All That, etc]]>

You've swiped left on Tinder, mastered Ok Cupid, divorced eHarmony, placed dice with Grinderand been excommunicated from Christian Mingle...now what? Grab your friends and go on an adventure with Tinder Social! Is it more like speed dating, or a reality show? Paul Chavez returns to help us get to the "bottom" of Tinder Social.]]>

Nathan and Kristen put down their phones for 5 minutes to talk about the phenomenon that is the latest incarnation of Nintendo's Pokemon, an augmented reality (AR) phone app (unless you have a windows phone, of course) called Pokemon Go! We discuss the app's popularity, frustrations, and dangers and then take to the streets to interview some real-life 20 year olds about the phenomenon. We also mention other apps such as Space Team, Slither.io., and Ingress (barely). You "gotta catch" this episode. See what I did there?

As Richard says: "We're becoming more manly." This week Blowing Up looks at products unnecessarily marketed toward a single gender. Can a man draw a bath and keep his masculinity? We chat with Juan to help determine the answer!

Computers and machines are getting better all the time, but are robots? Nope. Not necessarily. We talk about Kickstarter failure called Jerry: A Personal Robot. We also talk about the short and happy life of Hitchbot Comb-over and an in intriguingly mysterious device called the Gobone (Go bone).

Would you eat in the nude? Would you eat it with a dude? Would you try it in the buff, without clothes covering your stuff? WARNING: This episode is dirtier and grosser than usual. More swears too! You've been warned. ]]>

Burger King becomes Hot Dog King with their new food "innovations." We boldly explore the BK frontier, journaling our adventures like Lewis and Clark and his other brother Clark. We try the "classic," the "chili cheese," and the "chicken fries rings" (nice double plural there). We also have fries, nuggets, and an apple pie. Listen now, or forever hold your chicken fries.]]>

On this week's episode we review turtlecalls.com, where you can receive a "turtle call." Make sense? We also talk about who looks like a turtle, whether modern day humans ever answer their phones, sexism in using "man" as a verb, and I make way too many references to the Ted Cruz sex scandal for some reason... Please make a point to listen to this podcast before your eventual and inevitable death!]]>
