  • Microtheticast.025 — You Better Watch Out

    You like books. Sure. But you're tired of the same old authors, the same old plots, the same old characters. Right? Right.

    So let's mix it up! This week, we're playing Collaboratory, where we choose zany combinations of author / setting / genre, and we talk about what that book might be like! Believe me, it gets weird. 

    Topics include: chimichanga hands, underground smoochin', whether Nancy should have dated Ned or George, Pump and Munch, Christmas Romancin', and at least a few more.

  • Ep.035 — The Goblin That Pulls His Nose and Farts

    Books.

    Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em. 

    Right? 

    Actually, it's definitely more just the second part, because they're great, and I bet you have some in your house. I bet you're holding one right now. Put that down. That's not yours. You're in a museum. Keep listening to this podcast and stop picking up artifacts you nasty grabbo.

    This week, we're taking all your amazing book-themed questions and podcasting about them! Yes! It's true!

    Topics include: Jane Austen's wit, Emily's perfect female form, Goblin Parades, Shallow Hal, Mike's distrust of The Cloud, and so much more.

  • Microtheticast.024 — Bonk That Gonk

    We got SO. MANY. ROBOT. SEX. QUESTIONS. last week, so we decided to do a whole episode featuring all our favorite fictional robots. Which ones would be the best companions? The best lovers? That's for us to know, and us to tell you, and then you to know, and maybe disagree with. That's how this podcasting thing works, I guess.

    Topics include: C3PO's rigid arms, C3PO's rigid demeanor, I Can Do That Dave, Tick Tock being a spooky ball, the store Robot Love, what R2D2 has in all his pockets, and maybe a really cool invention that somebody has probably already made up.

    Here in this week's Hypotheticast, it's all robots, all the time. At least, for this hour of your Wednesday. Make sure you let your favorite Alexa / Siri / Google Friend listen to this episode. I'm sure they'll like it. 

    Topics include: becoming the Iron Giant, whether Johnny 5 would actually be a good friend, getting robot blood, eyes and souls and windows, cabins, Oscar Isaac, and Emily's desire to actually go full android.

  • Microtheticast.023 — A Man Called Jazz

    Don't you just love making pros and cons lists? I know I do. It's the only way I make decisions. Oh, except for those really important life decisions. I usually just flip a two-headed coin for those, cackle loudly, then sprint out the door wearing every jacket I own. Is that cool? Am I cool? I'm pretty sure jackets are cool.

    This week, we're playing The Good, The Bad, and The Answer. Hear us talk about things like: pigs, how pigs are basically dogs, how lizards poop, rainbows, the lack of springtime, David changing his name to Hans, Casper Thrones, and Infinity Bikes.

  • Ep.033 — Stillwater on a Sunday

    Have you ever wanted to just TOTALLY get PRANKED? Well, this episode is for you. Or, honestly, if you hate pranks. There's plenty of prank-shaming in this episode, too. But it's all about practical jokes! Like farts. I bet you love farts. Nasty.

    Topics include: fire skeletons, Adam Potter, Jack's Pizza, licking your car, kraft singles, jello powder, and a menu of David's sexual preferences.

  • Microtheticast.022 — Do It Now, Yoda

    It's "Crazy Third Month," everyone. Bust out your favorite Wayne Gretzky jersey and that cool Walter Payton trading card collection, because we're doing SPORTS. 

    I mean, sort of. 

    What we're actually doing is what we're calling a "Marchitheticast," or a little tournament of fictional champions. Our wonderful friend Joe Holme came up with this idea, and I think you're really going to like it. 

    The featured players: Yoda, Batman, Wonder Woman, Every Ewok, Rainbow Brite, Jabba the Hutt, Gollum, and Hermione Granger. 

    Who've you got? SHOW ME YOUR BRACKET, BUD. I know who we've got, because we did it already. But come find us on social media and tell us why we're oh so very wrong.

    If you're a friend, this episode is for you. If you're a stranger, this episode is ABOUT you. Either way, pay attention, because this episode of The Hypotheticast is all about strangers. 

    Topics include: shopping with Tanner, dystopian arranged marriage, Frank Sinatra's genius lyrics, jumping on people from great heights, jumping out of buses, and an app called "Air BnB My Buddy."

    Hey, you! You're doing it. I don't know what it is, but man, is it ever gettin' done. Dang gurl.

    Hi it's me, the Hypotheticast. And I'm a "Would I Rather" this week, which is a super fun game where we try to know each other. See if you can guess how we answer these questions! It's real fun. Awesome submissions from everybody.

    Topics include: tampons, space tampons, CHRYO-BABY, snugglin', smugglin', joint funerals, monkey friends, space meat, and translation issues.

    P.S. It's our one year anniversary as a podcast. This is awesome. You're all awesome. We don't deserve the listeners that we have, because you're the most wonderful. Keep listening, interacting, sharing, and being beautiful humans. K bye.

  • Ep.031 — Shirley Jackson's Space Lottery

    Hi, little buds. And also you, over there. Tall buds. We love you too.

    It's spacetime! This week's lovely episode is all about outer space. We got giant smuggled shipments of space-themed questions from our listeners this week, so we tried to pack in as many as we could. 

    Topics include: middle school dances, the magic school bus, gettin' sucked into that B.H., Space World, a planet of only Emily, getting "men in black flashed," and betraying a best friend.
