We can't all be Merilyn Mann or one of his Inbox Heroes, can we? We need a productivity product for the rest of us! Enter: The Task Mask!
Kris and Kole talk about celebrities, tech news, and self esteem.
SUGGESTED TALKING POINTS:Brad Pitt and Mike Tyson are eskimo brothers. Dolly Parton doesn't look like Dolly Parton. TECH NEWS CORNER: iTunes 11? Zooey Deschanel died in the crossfire. Topless nuns with holy sperm. Mundane theft and the panty heist. Porn stars have high self esteem. I free-based Claudia. Adam Levine on Honey Boo Boo. Grannypod.
Look how happy they are.
This is largely considered to be a good starting episode for the show! Listening back, I wish I had better mic technique and didn't say "you know" as much. I think one reason I'm constantly stumbling in my words is because the subject matter is so personal. I'm comfortable sharing but it's still hard to talk about sometimes.
The first half is maybe the first time I've gotten really personal but it was important for me to not be cagey. I think at a certain point, you realize that hey, this is your life, there's no use pretending anything didn't happen. However, I might just be saying that because it hasn't fucked me just yet. Will this episode stop me from getting a job at some point? Probably!
The song is from a brief solo project and is short and poppy.
The end bit is probably why this episode is so well thought of. It's one of the first really produced things I've done, it introduces a character I'd go on to use, and it's batshit insanity was at least somewhat natural. The Brain Camp sketch was inspired by a note I wrote to myself that said, I shit you not, "paint turtles on breasts to keep kid away." It's also inspired by the absolute terror of live action ninja turtles as featured in the We Wish You A Turtle Christmas video. I had a serious laughing fit with my friends Brayton (of The Pitch) and Jeremy after watching this nonsense. Check it out!
Oh, and this is the premeire of the ending theme song that I was always pretty proud of.

Had an evening of Rip'n'Dips? Do you hate going to the bathroom in the middle of the night? Of course you do. It's the worst! Well, if you're peeing, you can always use The Spashlight. But what if "the other" creeps up? That's where the Bunshine comes in!
Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross radiate praise for the first half of Fallout.
Great games. Great games never change…es. Continuing our infatuation with CRPGs, we delve into Gary’s favorite game of all time. This is a two-parter, so we cover everything up to the Water Merchants. Does it hold up? Yeop.

Kris and Kole talk about loneliness, the coming holiday onslaught, and body image.
SUGGESTED TALKING POINTS:Sound check and the traveling podman. Home for the holidays, Kole's lonely Christmas. Is dolphin killing a national pastime? Illegal dentistry and butt kissing. Holiday overeating sex tips. The samurai sword is the signature weapon of the crazy person. Cameron Diaz: "Women want to be objectified". Little brothers kill older brothers. Robert Loggia does The Aristocrats. The Good Giraffe. Black Friday Report. Passing the kid in the car by. I'm not in pain. MRI Dreamscapes and overdose stories. Mirror Exposure Manor. This is your brain on Christmas music. Let's mutilate our feet. The Porn-Prison Industrial Complex. Solid gold Visa.
This man is one shower away from being a lucky boy.
For some reason, at this point, I thought the overwhelming negativity of my podcast and personality was a bug, not a feature, so I needed to talk about something positive. That's where this comes from.
In the middle, I have a song from my rap group, HWP, and it's definitely the high water mark of that band. That was a partnership with my very funny, very talented friend Austin Cliffe.
The last half of the episode has a couple of commissioned songs I wrote. The first one, for my buddy Tony Zanker, suffers from some sour vocals but I think the 2nd one, written for my friend Mike Kitchell, is top shelf.
Kole, Ben, Dennis, and David talk about the Wii U launch, Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies, and Planetside 2. Welcome to the second level.
