Ben catches Max up on the happs.  Dungeons and Dragons. Warhammer 40k. DC20. Bootlegging gray plastic crack across boarders.  *** Submit Your Topic, Get A Free Shirt  @IgandUn - [email protected]

Sometimes the state of the world gets you down.  Ben is on the struggle bus. Max does what he can to help.  Detours to Cochella, Sumo Wrestling, and tarot along the way!  Ps - doing your taxes is like playing the worst game of dnd.  *** Submit Your Topic, Get A Free Shirt  @IgandUn - [...]

The origin of Ben's nickname.  Max's struggle with perfectionism. Resident Alien.  Colorado on TV vs real life.  Done is better than perfect.  *** Submit Your Topic, Get A Free Shirt  @IgandUn - [email protected]

Ben takes us to school and then takes a turn. A red button is all it takes to confuse Max.   Some things don't age well. Never meet your heroes, kids. Nick Offerman - don't you dare break Ben's heart.  *** Submit Your Topic, Get A Free Shirt  @IgandUn - [email protected]

We are doing the thing! Ben's mom's mysterious request. Some of Max's thoughts on writing. Technology as a gateway to the Dark Side. "You don't see things how they are. You see things how you are." ps - Weekly Show link.  *** Submit a topic or just say hi - [email protected]

We start with the part-time gig. We go to the full-time gig. Big steps for Ben (asking for help!) The takeaways: Enmeshed technology is cool until it isn't. Don't update software during crunch time *** Reach out, submit a topic, say hi - [email protected]

It's a wide ranging conversation this week! How much money is feeling better worth? Ben wants to lose his baby weight. (Maybe shivering on his son's floor will help...) Max is ignorant and uninformed. And our buddy, Ritzman, is mythic. *** Submit Your Topic, Get A Free Shirt  @IgandUn - [email protected]

It's a surprise for Ben as St. Jaysopher drops in.  Everyone is into the longer days. Where the word robot came from.  Some shop talk. Over committing and when help does not help.  (Ps - Jay has given us 70+ topics) *** Submit Your Topic, Get A Free Shirt  @IgandUn - [email protected]

Work trips to Vegas. Pleasure and joy are nourishment (and now - a form of resistance!)  The Saw escape room.  Blood pacts to preserve dignity. Nothing says “you failed” like a dude in a pigmask with a cattle prod chasing you into the lobby. Inspiration is everywhere  *** Submit Your Topic, Get A Free Shirt  [...]

Ben is stressed. Max only cares about his forks. A little talked about event from the past of the show. Art, inhabiting the moment, creative anxiety, and self doubt.  *** Submit Your Topic, Get A Free Shirt  @IgandUn - [email protected]
