  • Microtheticast.035 — The Speakeasy

    Welcome, one and all, to our first Podcast Collaboration Sort of Thing! I'm not sure what to call it, except "super good." Because it is that. It sure is that. This week for our Microtheticast, we're running a custom audio-only escape room from Escape This Podcast!

    Emily and Mike get captured in a speakeasy, and their only way out involves clue-following, puzzle-solving, and bleeding. Bleeding? Yeah. Mike made some choices.

  • Ep.045 — Lock Me Up, Baby

    Escape Rooms. 

    They're tricky. They're difficult. They're just like us.

    This week, we're trying to unlock the secrets of just what makes Escape Rooms so exciting. And how are we going to do that? By answering hypothetical questions about them, of course! Ugh. Duh.

    Topics include: ladies in bathrobes, how pooping in public is easier for a man, large spiders in lab coats, Peter Parkour, robot dads, becoming a spy, The Fear Hole, brothers, wrenches, and The Ford Escape.

  • Microtheticast.034 — Smushed Up Snakes

    Would I Rather? A wonderful question. And a wonderful game. 

    Today, we're playing it with Sean Dillon. Yeah, bb. He's back for more, and I guess you are too, listener. Find out whether or not Emily would like it to rain caterpillars, and what David would do if he were the size of a quarter.

    Topics include: all my biologist friends, licking a frog all over its body, the lessons we've all learned from Adam Sandler and Christopher Walken, wasting Sean's time, and how attached Emily is to Parks and Rec.

  • Ep.044 — The Real Purge Begins

    TIME. A constant. Or is it a plastic, wibbly, fabric, inscrutable idea? God, we don't know. But we're here to talk about it. And our special guest expert is here to talk about it, too! Sean Dillon knows a thing or two about time, because he's been in a linear timestream for at least a few years. Listen to him, Hypotheticats. He has things to teach. Topics include: David is the sexy one, Johnathan Taylor Thomas, Trainsongs, Kenny Chesney is always better the second time, Plenty of Crimes that are Fun, Sean's Salon, Mike's Time Desert, and Emotionally Scarred Cyborgs.

  • Microtheticast.033 — He Ruined Your World Deliberately

    Micro time.

    We're still on the conspiracy train, and we did some research. We're playing a little game where we take two REAL conspiracies and one MADE UP conspiracy, and we try to trick each other. You love tricks, right? Welcome to the Hypotheticast.

    Topics include: Stephen King and his Murderous Ways, grown men pretending to be babies, Walt Disney's frozen head, Queen Elizabeth, the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, GPS Sharks and Robot Dolphins, and so many more wild, wild things.  ***

    Conspiracies.

Learn which conspiracy David ACTUALLY BELIEVED when he was a silly teen. Topics include: innocuous aliens, the moon landing, jimmy john (the guy, not the place), the phantom time hypothesis, melissa, area 51, jet fuel can't melt steel years, Albert Pepsi, and The Unsinkable Molly Brown.

  • Microtheticast.032 — The Tanner Bump

    This week, we're joined by a splendid guest. Just a charmer. I'm pretty sure he's not married, but if he is married, it certainly isn't to anybody on the Hypotheticast.

    Topics include: fish flaps, coffee cans, choruses, failure, hummus, literary legacies, reluctant sea princes, and classic demon hauntings.

    Thanks to Johnathan Manchester, Michael Krefting, and Lisa Jensen for the delicious questions!

  • Ep.042 — The Tears of Wives

    DINOSAURS. 

    They were the realest lizards. They're gone now, but we remember them in this podcast. It's in honor of them, you know. It's what they would have wanted.

    Plus, there's a fun surprise at the end of the episode.

    Listen. To. Find. Out. What. It. Is.

    That's. How. Surprises. Work.

    Topics include: Samantha The Real Actual Dog, how to succeed in business while wearing only dinosaur pajamas, 20-foot necks, smushing the continents back together, putting those dinos to WORK, and a head hole where the breasts would be.

  • Microtheticast.031 — I Want a Humble Lover

    You know Do, Dump, Date. It's everyone's favorite party game with three things in it. But what if it were a little more . . . spicy?

    Enter a new challenger: Do, Dump, DANGER. Where, instead of just dating a person, we have to do some sort of DANGEROUS ACTIVITY with them. Oh, yeah. Buckle up. Let's do it.

    Topics include: nose-based sharks, a dangerous object in each hand, Sabrina the Of-Age Witch, animated lions, and humble lovers.

  • Ep.041 — Angry Mike and The Wild Boys

    A feeling. A reality. A famous middle name.

    "Danger" is our theme this week, friendos. We're talking about all the things that make us scared, that give us thrills, or that annoy Emily. She's got some deep-seated hate for mountain-climbers and bull-runners. What's that even ABOUT though.

    Topics include: David's Alley Experiences, Mantis Pants, Perpetual Bulls, the infinite nature of barrels, getting "exploded on," David being too stupid to save himself from a crashing plane, and The Tippety Top of the Toppest Tower.
