Cry Laugh Emoji

Welcome back to another episode (THE BIG 4-0), folks! We go over a couple new ideas: Dr. Simmons: The Therapist, the year of Cry Laugh Emoji (and a possible podcast of the year award), and DOCTOR malone: The Therapist. our segment Tell Me About It we review the movie “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” (1974), and how it is very dissimilar to the title. In this segment we also mention our friend podcast, The Final Boys, but forgot the name of it. So check those boys out! We go over what may or may not be our last What’s in the News? segment. Remember this was recorded January 8th! There is also a little talk of lizard people, because we just couldn’t avoid it. Here we also debut our new segment Yahoo…Answers something or other.

Here’s a couple Yahoo Answers questions to get you going:

Is Joe Burden a homosexual?

My female ferret keeps freaking out and jumping around all over the place, licking her privates constantly. What’s wrong?

Welcome back folks! It’s been a while since we posted an episode, but this one is absolutely delightful. We discuss the great Joe Mande’s Award Winning Comedy Special, discuss the merits of fidget spinning, and dive into the realm of the Unknown Punster. Then we debut an instant classic segment, the Advice Corner, where we go back and forth asking and answering questions posed by the fine users of Yahoo! Answers. Whether you’re wondering what it’s like to be dead or simply looking for a ghetto badass Instagram username, let Drs. Malone & Simmons help you out.

Holding your breath for guitar solos, eating ice cream when you’re lactose intolerant, reviewing the album Guided by Voices – Bee Thousand, a tryout segment using Stack Exchange questions, and a hot look at micro-transactions and the recent EA Battlefront II controversy– This week has it all!

This one’s kind of a downer folks: we talk about a racist pizza purveyor (and how everything will almost certainly work out for him in the end), a movie all about a guy trying to kill himself, read some choice sad short stories from Reddit, and Elsagate, one of the most disturbing things happening on the web right now, a rash of Youtube videos targeted at very young children seemingly written by algorithms, ranging from the slightly unnerving to the violent.

But! We also have a pleasant conversation about video games, and the sad stories really aren’t really all that sad. There’s even a mini-play in here, featuring some excellent voice acting work from the boys. So it’s not all as bad as it seems!

Here’s the article we discuss about the Youtube videos: https://medium.com/@jamesbridle/something-is-wrong-on-the-internet-c39c471271d2. A number of the specific videos embedded in the article have since been taken down, probably in large part due to the popularity of the article, but plenty of similar content remains.

BOO!! Haha, just kidding folks. But now that I’ve got your attention, how about you check out this special Halloween episode? The boys relive a frightening trick-or-treating tale from Mark’s childhood and try to figure out what costume Ryan should wear to an upcoming party. Then, they review the Halloween-themed animated miniseries Over the Garden Wall, including Mark giving a voice-acting performance you WON’T want to miss. Finally, hear the bone-chilling tale of the Emoji Killer. Forget the tricks, this episode is a damn treat!!
