#What made the internet angry this year?

Congratulations! You survived the angriest year in the history of the planet! Give yourself a hearty pat on the back, then get back to being pissed off about shit that doesn't matter! Dale and Derek cover their top 3 outrage-inducing stories of the year, compare New Year's resolutions, the world's fattest otter, Louis C.K. is back in the news AGAIN for bad reasons AGAIN, and less off-topic rambling than normal. Thanks for spending another year listening to the world's greatest, dumbest podcast!

PETA is in the news for humiliating themselves again. Derek fondly remembers a seagull murder. We discuss what it takes to be a successful parent. People have awfully strong opinions about a song they hear three to four times a year as ambient music in department stores. We eat spotted dick, and this time it's the food! Teflon is making your genitals smaller. We settle the eternal debate: is Die Hard a Christmas movie? Carly Rae Jepsen is a pop goddess. All this and more on a special holiday edition of the world's dumbest podcast.

Hey, it's the episode number that is also a sex act! Speaking of sex acts, the most pretentious man alive has been #MeTooed! Speaking of #MeToo, a bizarrely popular Christmas song about date rape has been removed from the radio! Speaking of bizarrely popular, ordering kiosks at McDonalds are covered with feces! Speaking of feces, a bunch of kids in Hawaii were 'accidentally' fed Pine-Sol instead of apple juice! Speaking of all of that, it's time to get FIRED UP for your favorite dumb podcast!

In a very sexy episode of your favorite podcast, we discover the dangers of trying to spread Christianity to an isolated tribe of people armed with instruments of murder. We play 'monkeys or cousins?' and answer the eternal debate 'which breed of monkey is the sexiest?'. A murderous otter is on the loose in Vancouver and has somehow managed to outsmart numerous city employees. Also outsmarting the city employees: the koi fish the otter is murdering! Why don't straight people use animal codewords to describe their sexual preferences? Incels are reporting cam models for tax evasion with all the free time they have from never having sex. If there's anything grosser than a sex doll brothel, we don't want to hear about it. Derek officially accepts his status as a sugar baby. All this plus a bunch of extra talk about having sex with monkeys!

The midterm elections have come and gone, and the #BlueWave was more of a light splash. Donald Trump, noted troop-respecter, fails to commemorate World War I. People should only be allowed to vote between the ages of 30 and 50. Electoral reform is a hot-button topic in BC, but nobody really understands what it means! Young white males in Wisconsin are unsurprisingly racist! The 'OK' sign has been co-opted by racists. People are HEATED about one dude's innocuous proposal! Dale tells us about his dream wedding! Trumpy Bear is the most genius thing we've ever seen, until we release the Freedom Holster™! Stan Lee, creator of a bunch of shit near and dear to our nerdy-ass hearts, has died while still looking younger than Bernie Sanders.

People have strong opinions about when it's appropriate to get excited about Christmas, and whatever you feel, you're probably wrong! We also discuss the folly of war, Dale drops some World War I facts, were Nazis fashionable?, even the seals in Scotland are terrifying, white people invent another persecution complex, boobs: no thanks.

The Midterm elections are coming up and the Democratic party is destined to fail forever! Who could have guessed that letting a bunch of shitty opportunists prey on mentally ill peoples' paranoia would yield tragic results?! It was a big week for insane rightwingers with an axe to grind! Several thousand people are hiking thousands of miles for an inevitable showdown with US border guards! The internet has permanently fucked up our brains and nobody seems to care! Dale is a big fan of Goop! It's still too soon to dress your kid up as Hitler for Halloween! Adult Halloween is depressing as hell, but the fake muscles are cool! Reason number 10000 we're happy cell phones didn't exist when we grew up. Yes, conservative commentators, blackface is bad.

Smoke 'em if you got 'em! And by 'em', we mean weed, which is now totally legal in Canada, unless you ever want to cross a border into the United States again! We discuss provincial weed sales, why smoking some things is good for you and smoking other things is bad for you, your online weed purchases are almost DEFINITELY being shared with US border agents, this vape that perfectly replicates smoking is remarkably effective at replacing smoking—especially with kids, a non-problematic all-male reboot of The Golden Girls, how people got pregnant in the 50s, cellophane underwear, voter turnout sucks but democracy is still the best for whatever reason, why Dale carries an old Amazon box wherever he goes.

Hiding bodies in the woods. Dale invents a jingle for Derek's single life. The far-right and far-left surprisingly do not get along very well! Join The Lost Boys today. Why do people live in Australia? SPF = spider paste (cures) face (cancer)! Why Derek didn't drink milk for two years. We are ruining our children. We explain the UK to Dale. RIP Big Dick Energy. Yep, it's a podcast alright.
