Luke Taylor is a Chicago based comedian who currently acts in the sketch group "The Shrimp Boys" and also does preforms in Helltrap Nightmare, a live comedy show hosted in Chicago. Luke also went soft viral recently after writing a VICE article in which he recounts being banned from Twitter for threatening to kill Mr. Peanut.

Luke joins the podcast to talk making YouTube videos, doing live comedy with Helltrap, why Chicago is the best place to learn how to be a preformer, and what it's been like being banned from Twitter.

We got two episodes in store for today. First up, Lou sits down with Luke O'Neil, a freelance writer (Esquire, VICE, The Guardian, etc) who may best be known for his newsletter "Welcome To Hellworld". We talk about his background as a writer, the hells of internet journalism, and why he started a newsletter in the first place.

Then...

Joe and Lou sit down with Jeremy Kaplowitz, a comedian who functions as editor-in-chief of Hard Drive, The Hard Times' video game magazine. We talk about his new endeavor, @GamerPres2020, a twitter account featuring gamer and presidential candidate Ace Watkins. We also talk about how he ended up co-creating Hard Drive, as well as what happened to Pete Holmes!

Joe and Lou sit down with A.T. Callaghan, a freelance journalist who may be best known as the co-creator of Quarter Confessions, an Instagram web series in which Andrew interviews drunk people on Bourbon Street. They also discuss his book, "All Gas, No Brakes: A Hitchhikers Diary", a book wherein he hitchhiked from St. Louis to Washington State, and all the crazy people and events he encountered and experienced.

A while back, the bro's took it upon themselves to react to the then-recent Joe Rogan Experience episode with Alex Jones. The following episode is the reaction audio that the three dudes did to the podcast, as well as videos of Owen Benjamin ranting about flat earth and James Gunn. It's a riot, let me tell ya.

My real name is Dexter, haha !!!!

Lou sits down with hip-hop beats producer Dylan Conners (H Y P Y K Y T Y) and fellow writer Julitza Zapata Gomez (Former staff writer: HerCampus.com/school/stonybrook) to discuss... well... pretty much everything from the changing ethics and styles of pro wrestling to the upcoming election to everything in between! It's the most un-internet related episode, yet in a way, it's the most internet related episode as well. TUNE IN, GOOGAHS!

The bros reconvene to discuss the brave and noble efforts of lads such as LA Beast and Brave Wilderness.
