Talk Shit Or Get Off The Pod

Todd Rundgren, we gotta get you a woman—and possibly take your microphone away.

On Episode 240 of Talk Shit Or Get Off The Pod, Andrew Schultz (Mr. Goody Two Shoes) and Joseph Huggins (OldManHuggie) unpack Rundgren’s shots at Taylor Swift and his theory that video games helped female pop stars take over music. You don’t have to be a Swiftie to recognize when someone’s turned an interview into an old man yelling at a cloud.

Also on the menu: a Massachusetts lesbian bar’s mask-policy meltdown, Trump’s proposed “super intelligence” rebrand, and Andrew calling a poker bluff with bottom pair—and somehow getting lectured by the guy whose chips he’s stacking.

The detours include moon water, pumpkin spice propaganda, sobriety and GLP-1 debates, fantasy-football trade drama, and Andrew casually revealing that he fell off a cliff.

This week’s Therapy Questions tackle the greatest nonmusical sound, whether society could lose mirrors, photographs, or clocks, which “skills” are mostly confidence, and the one music genre you’d save to rebuild humanity’s soundtrack.

Come for the Todd Rundgren roast. Stay for a grown man defending his constitutional right to make bacon at night.

Episode 239: Clavicular’s Worst Angle

You can spend all day perfecting your jawline, but you can’t control the angle the news takes. Andrew and Joseph get into the serious allegations facing looksmaxxing influencer Clavicular, his online persona, and the strange world that made him famous.

Elsewhere, Trump tells a CNN reporter she shouldn’t be at the United Nations, a pro-Trump festival collapses after selling six VIP passes, and the guys ask whether AI giants want sensible regulation or a bigger head start. Plus: Andrew loses a drag queen bingo runway showdown, and Therapy Questions puts first impressions, fake legacies, Earth’s official smell, and useless reflexes up for debate.

Hunter Biden has officially entered the meme-coin casino and naturally, he’s cashing in on the laptop scandal that refused to die.

This week, Andrew and Joseph break down the launch of Hunter’s Laptop Coin, why some battleground Republicans are suddenly skipping a Trump-backed midterm convention, and the TSA’s new experiment allowing people without plane tickets through airport security.

Plus, Therapy Questions investigates Dream You’s criminal record, a pill that permanently eliminates embarrassment, whether you’d risk learning your exact intelligence ranking, and which complaints would immediately be denied by the Department of Bitching.

Politics, crypto, airport chaos, and dangerously confident opinions welcome to Episode 238 of Talk Shit Or Get Off The Pod.

The internet may have finally reached peak absurdity. This week, Andy and Huggie investigate Daejon Love the alleged fake NFL player who somehow fooled his way into internet fame and celebrate George Santos becoming the first person in history to receive a lifetime ban from Kalshi. Apparently, when Congress expels you and a prediction market says you’re too shady, you’re officially operating at a Hall of Fame level.

Plus, Google Maps begins showing “Lake America” to U.S. users, because apparently even geography can get rebranded now.

But first, in Therapy Questions:

• ​If aliens demanded to meet the person most responsible for humanity’s current personality, whom would we send?
• ​Which statistic would you check first on your life’s complete stats page?
• ​If humanity discovered the universe was a simulation, how quickly would everyone return to work?
• ​And if you forgive someone but never trust them again, did you actually forgive them or just unsubscribe from the anger?

Fake athletes, permanent bans, renamed bodies of water, simulated realities, and emotional subscription cancellations welcome to Episode 237 of Talk Shit Or Get Off The Pod.

This week, we honor the incomparable Dolly Parton and celebrate the music, wit, generosity, and one-of-a-kind spirit that made her a cultural icon.

Then the conversation takes several hard turns as we examine the Lindsay Clancy trial, the arrest of 49ers owner Jed York in an alleged prostitution sting, and a disturbing study revealing the prevalence of CTE among deceased former NFL players.

Plus, Therapy Questions asks: Would society survive if everyone received one consequence-free slap per year? Would brutally honest blame percentages kill the apology? Why do ghosts respect property lines? And is it more powerful to detect a lie—or make someone comfortable enough to tell you the truth?

It’s grief, scandal, uncomfortable truths, paranormal loopholes, and one extremely dangerous hypothetical slap.

Thank you for calling Earth. Your planet is very important to us. Please remain on the line while humanity continues making everything significantly weirder.

This week on Talk Shit Or Get Off The Pod, Andrew and Joseph decide who should represent Earth’s customer service department, devise a one-year plan to turn Grandma into an internet celebrity, upgrade their bodies with animal parts, and determine which corporation would pay the most to permanently sponsor a human being.

Then it’s on to the increasingly complicated battle over who profits from AI-generated music, the fight between fact and fiction surrounding the Tupac Shakur murder trial, a Chucky-masked creep allegedly chasing a jogger through Philadelphia, and why South Korea’s president says the country must prepare for the “worst-case scenario.”

AI lawsuits. Tupac conspiracies. Influencer grandmas. Corporate forehead tattoos. Just another completely normal call to Planet Earth.

🎙️ Talk Shit Or Get Off The Pod — Episode 235: “Thank You for Calling Earth”

This week, Andrew and Joseph are asking the important Therapy Questions: If every historical figure got one podcast episode, who would break the internet? What’s the first thing humanity would do if unicorns turned out to be real? Which decade would have the most annoying personality? And if every billionaire had to start over with only $100, who would claw their way back to the top first?

Then the flocking madness begins. The guys break down the growing backlash against surveillance cameras in North Texas, Trump’s Patriot Games and the uncomfortable history of youth sports as propaganda, why Mike Lindell might have a legitimate shot in Minnesota, and America’s credit card debt climbing toward an all-time record of $1.26 trillion.

Unicorns, billionaires, propaganda, surveillance and crippling debt—just another completely normal week on Talk Shit Or Get Off The Pod.

How fast can life go completely off the rails? This week, we’re testing that theory.

We kick things off with another round of Therapy Questions, including:

* What’s the most useless skill you’d instantly master?

* If Earth had one official mascot, who gives humanity our best shot?

* Which historical event deserves a modern sports broadcast?

* And which internet conspiracy would you finally want the real answer to?

Then we dive into a packed week of headlines:

🎬 Hollywood’s silence grows as new allegations surrounding Jared Leto continue to surface and major industry figures keep their distance.

🏛️ The Reflecting Pool controversy escalates, raising fresh questions about government oversight and accountability.

🔥 An alleged arsonist appears in court after the devastating Spokane wildfires, as investigators continue piecing together what happened.

🚨 A man carrying ammunition is arrested near Donald Trump’s golf course outside Los Angeles, prompting another major security scare.

As always, expect questionable opinions, unnecessary confidence, and just enough chaos to keep everyone out of prison… hopefully.

📰 Articles Discussed

* NBC News — Jared Leto allegations

* MSNBC — Trump’s Reflecting Pool controversy

* NPR — Spokane wildfire arson suspect

* NPR — Man arrested near Trump’s golf course

🎧 New episodes every week. If you laughed, got offended, or questioned humanity, hit Follow, leave a 5-star rating, and share the show with someone who’d definitely need more than 30 Seconds To Prison.

What do Chinese humanoid robots, pepper-spraying security drones, nationwide airline outages, and Reddit existing during the Roman Empire all have in common?

Absolutely nothing… which is exactly why we’re talking about all of it.

This week, the guys break down the latest headlines, including raging wildfires, schools experimenting with pepper-spraying drones as an active-shooter response, the U.S. government’s move to ban new Chinese humanoid robots, and the American Airlines IT meltdown that briefly grounded flights across the country. Then, as always, things spiral into complete nonsense with another round of Therapy Questions that somehow become the most heated debates of the episode.

This week’s Therapy Questions:

• If your browser history became a Netflix documentary, what would it be called?

• Which comedian should humanity send to negotiate with aliens?

• Which historical era would create the greatest subreddit if Reddit had always existed?

• If billionaires had to compete on a game show to keep their fortunes, what would Round One be?

Current events, ridiculous hypotheticals, questionable logic, and enough side quests to make Google Maps recalculate.

🎙️ New episodes every week. Come talk shit… or get off the pod.

This week, we’re serving up a combo meal of bad decisions, bizarre headlines, and the internet’s favorite game: asking questions nobody can answer without immediately starting an argument.

In this week’s Therapy Questions, humanity gets exactly 30 seconds to impress an advanced alien civilization… what do we show them? Which chain restaurant would become the most powerful sovereign nation? If every wedding had to include a sporting event, which one guarantees absolute chaos? And if one animal could legally testify in court, which species would juries trust the most?

Then we break down one of the most appropriately named episodes in podcast history…

🥬 Taco Bell finds itself at the center of a lettuce-linked outbreak, forcing us to rebrand one of the most recognizable slogans in fast food history from “Live Más” to “Shit Más.”

⛽ We discuss Trump’s proposed “Freedom Fuel” plan and whether it’s a legitimate solution to rising gas prices or simply another political catchphrase.

🌲 And somehow the wildest story of the week involves a father and son allegedly kidnapping two U.S. Forest Service biologists at gunpoint, a headline that somehow gets even stranger the deeper you dig.

Grab your headphones, skip the extra lettuce, and join us for another episode full of ridiculous debates, questionable opinions, and the kind of conversations that make absolutely no sense until they somehow do.

Welcome to Episode 231… “Shit Más.” 🌮🎙️
