New Year’s Icebreakers for the Dull or Demented. From a party perspective New Year’s is really amateur hour, hordes of emotionally chaotic humans getting sloppy and rubbing up against each other, celebrating an arbitrary milestone with Jell-o shots and plastic thimbles of champagne. This week we’re gonna help you bone up on your conversational chops […]

The Warm Breeze Off Jugalo Island. We live 3000 miles apart, but we’re neighbors on Jugalo Island, a special place where two fifty-something jabronis can have a podcast where they offer uninformed opinions, share dubious battle stories and generally pretend to know what’s going on in the world. This week you’ll get the warm breeze […]

Bad Reasons to Talk About Batman. Batman is clearly the best superhero because he doesn’t have any superpowers and because he isn’t even sure whether he’s a good guy or a bad guy. Also, because he wears his underwear on the outside. Recent events have highlighted that humanity has a real soft spot for vigilante […]

Putting Humpty Dumpty Back Together Again. We’re just a couple of cracked eggs, and all the king’s horses and all the king’s men apparently need to be involved in our rehabilitation, which has to thread the needle between opiate addiction, night sweats and the fear of sneezing. Music pick of the week: Robot – Dissolves […]

The Last Will and Testament of Stevil Kinevil. By the time people are hearing this, I’ll either be in the great beyond where all the guitars are air guitars and all the cocktails come with umbrellas, OR I’ll just be crawling out of an opioid nightmare on the other side of knee surgery. And so, […]

Trying Very Hard Not to Try Very Hard. After 153 hours of jibber-jabber, I think we’ve established that nothing matters, and that quite possibly we’re all dead already anyway. That means we’re all free to do what we want, which for most us means, not very much. And yet, it’s still so hard to pull […]

The Epistemological Challenges of 21st Century Consciousness. One of the problems of being alive right now is that it’s becoming increasingly difficult to know what’s true, to even know what you know. There’s AI, deep fakes, fake news, memes, rumors, conspiracy theories, stuff we see in dreams, numerology, astrology and psychic surgery. How in the […]

Looking for a Good Cult to Join. Humans will believe just about anything. You wonder how people join UFO-worshipping, death cults, but is any of that so far from the stuff everyday people are completely sure about as they walk around the planet, eating food and reproducing? Music pick of the week: Robot – Billy […]

The Apocalypse Being Nigh. This episode has been gifted to humanity one day before the US election that may or may not (but probably will) trigger the end of our species in the universe. We can imagine a few of you are feeling some considerable stress, so today we’re going to talk about how to […]

Arbitrary Moments of Joy, Pain and Indifference. There are milestones in life that you see coming, and there are others that just happen to you. There are some you think are going to move your forward, like a marriage or a new job, but maybe they don’t pan out quite as expected. You shouldn’t expect […]
