In a weird way this whole show is really one long definition of a word Ben struggled to define at the end of the show. A malapropism is the name we give to those times when you say the wrong word, but the word you say sounds like the word you meant to say. Kinda [...]

Anything that's advanced enough looks like magic... Placebos are powerful. This week it's some hippie healing stuff, which means Max is front and center. Learn about the power of lasers, microwaves, and New (or if you're Geoff, Clean) Sock Day. Did you know Ben is a super taster? Ps - In case you were wondering [...]

How do you feel about socks? Is new sock day your favorite? What about neck tattoos? How do you feel about those? If you were forced to get one, what would it be? What about Girl Scout Cookies? If you had to eat an entire box in one sitting, what type would you choose? Okay [...]

This week we're talking about stories and how changing the narrator's point of view affects them. For instance...  - Superman's alien socialism threatens the core tenants of the US  - Mic needed Rocky to take a dive. (That's why he kept calling him a bum.)  - Mr. Miyagi was a bully.  - Indiana Jones was [...]

Between the three - which would you choose? Are you like Ben? The jumping-heel-clicking-fist-pumping Chaz Palminteri who took Sonny's lesson to heart? Are you like Geoff? The galactic overlord who rules with an iron fist and doesn't care about your opinion? Or are you Orientalist trash like Max? The profane/found Team America got it right... [...]

The topic clearly stated that Ben needed to be here. And it's a good thing it did. Lord knows, if he weren't this episode would be 30 minutes of wide-eyed, panic-stricken silence between Geoff and Max. It's the King of the Rock Musical vs. The Father of the Contemporary American Musical. (Otherwise known as Ben [...]

Pat wants to know why our economy is based on consumption. We want to know what blood-splattered handkerchiefs have to do with anything. The thing is, aren't all economies tuberculosis based? What would happen if we took away desire and leveled the playing field with a Star Trek type situation? Better listen in to find [...]

Is this not the most "mom" question? It makes sense though. Max's mom asked it... Ben loves his space. Geoff loves his green chili. And we all send a little love to our long lost host and brother, Benji. *** Topics - What's the best thing about living in the mountains? What's the worst? Do [...]

Let's take some time and talk about colors and preferences. Did you know Geoff hates purple and loves earth tones? Or that Ben loves purple and hates sunsets? Max? Oh, you know how it is with him. He's more concerned with making sure all the burners on his stove get used equally. Also mentioned: color [...]

** SUBSCRIBERS, I APOLOGIZE FOR BLOWING UP YOUR FEED. I LAUNCHED OUR NEW WEBSITE AND I'M DEBUGGING. HOPEFULLY IT WON'T BE TOO MUCH LONGER. - Max What does it mean to be human? (I know, it's a nice light topic this week, right?) Imagination? Existential dread? Morality? The ability to believe? Also - redneck dolphins, [...]
