May 17, 2018 Buddies In Space With Special Guest Loquacious Librarian Laura Lintz
In this episode, the Buddies enjoy low-sugar blueberry-kiwi-gin iced tea with special guest Laura Lintz, a fascinating “woman to watch” and true industry “disruptor” in terms of how people view and interact with their library.
Topics range from library pooping (it’s a thing, apparently), letting wolves loose at library functions (which should NOT be a thing) and watching porn in the library (which apparently has ALWAYS been a thing).
Also- “Diabetes, what’s that like?” Running to live forever! And SO MANY LIBRARIAN SECRETS YOU’VE BEEN DOING THINGS WRONG ALL THESE YEARS AND YOU HAD NO IDEA OMG!

May 04, 2018 The Buddies Review Ready Player One with Special Guest Dan Saper, Geek Dad!
The Buddies load up on some Ready Player One-themed “Scurvy-Bustin’ Citrus Mules” and, as Guest Fest continues, welcome Mike’s old college buddy and improv comedy compatriot Dan Saper, “The Man With An Indiscernible Accent!”
Topics joked about range from the Ready Player One movie vs the book, geek parenting and the college pranks of yesteryear. And the Buddies even keep the episode clean so that Dan’s kids can listen!
Also, Dan reveals a shocking secret that he’s kept from Mike for almost 20 years.
Wow.

In this second installment of the “Guest Fest” episode series, the Buddies quaff Averna Siciliano-based Black Manhattans alongside their special guest, virologist and all around geeky dude Matthew Quinn.
Matt recounts his and Mike’s doomed bromance from days past, reveals a truly amazing number of interesting (and depressing) facts about microorganisms and comes dangerously close to both out-geeking and out-podcasting the Buddies. But what else would you expect from Mike’s doppleganger?!
Also: Career paths based off of Michael Crichton novels! Barbecued parrots! And of course, so much laughter…

The Buddies squeeze some Buddha’s Hand into S’mike’s take on The New Black cocktail and then explore the inspirations and hidden, disturbing implications of the much-lauded Black Mirror episode “USS Callister.”

Black Mirror and Electric Dreams then get compared and contrasted. Mostly contrasted.
Also: Shitty playdates! The joys of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (the TV show)! And the hidden costs of cutting the cord!
