That Was Disappointing...

Episode 121 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

We put the garb(age) into vint(age).

Today’s Topic: Collectibles.

Nipple tassels count, right?

Join Art, Lex and their friend Michael, as they chat about the Crown Jewels of their individual collections and the agony of realizing it’s no longer in mint packaging. Survey says we all collected something or another (even boogers) as children, and odds are we through something away that was valuable… dummy. #backtothecoalmines

TWD Tip of the Week: Your beanie baby collection is worthless.

Episode 120 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

You’re gonna need a cold shower after this one…

Today’s Topic: Personal hygiene.

Why you’re coming to us for advice is anyones guess.

Join Art, Lex, and their friend Ken, as they chat about their freshness or lack thereof. And hey, we cover fisting and hemorrhoids too. We’re a jack of all trades when it comes to advice. You should definitely jump off that bridge, BTW. #peerpressure

TWD Tip of the Week: Last week’s suggestion was prophetic, so it’s worth repeating again, “Cleanliness is godliness. So make sure you wash your ass!”

Episode 119 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

And now for something completely different…

Today’s Topic: Hodgepodge Part XXVI (or thereabouts).

From nuclear war to vacation plans, we’ve got you covered. You think we’re joking!?

Join Art and Lex as they meet for their first-ever daytime convo. The former had (bull)shit to do, so our recording schedule was a little wonky (and sober) this week. Being a teetotaler sucks. At least we’re high on life. But not glue. 😞 #pickedthewrongweek

TWD Tip of the Week: Cleanliness is godliness. So make sure you wash your ass!

Episode 118 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Our viewership is harder to find than one of those 12-foot skeletons from Home Depot. 

Today’s Topic: Fall.

The one time of the year that wearing a hoodie is apropos… weirdo. 

Join Art, Lex, and their guests ex-producer Kenny (!), Ryan and Kelly, as they talk about the season that’s not too hot or too cold but somewhere in between. Here’s hoping you enjoy all two weeks of it before it turns into the dead of winter. It feels like the mild seasons (Fall and Spring) get shorter-and-shorter every year… kind of like your lifespan. #truthhurts

TWD Tip of the Week: How do you leave an idiot hanging in suspense?

Episode 117 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Answer: What is this podcast?

Today’s Topic: Weird Human Behaviors. (aka Joe Has OCD)

HA! See what we did there? R.I.P. Alex Trebek.

Join Art, Lex, and their guests Ben and Kat, as they chat about some of the oddball things related to the human experience. For example, why did Lex’s laptop decide to crap out, making this a total shitfest of a recording session? Isn’t Kat too glamorous for this show? Why do we keep Ben around? And Art… never change. #dick

TWD Tip of the Week: Every street has that one crazy neighbor. If your street doesn’t… *coughs*

Episode 116 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

We missed a golden opportunity to use Ride of the Valkyries as our intro music…

Today’s Topic: War.

Shouldn’t all our tax dollars go into cloning Chuck Norris for this endeavor?

Join Art and Lex (no guests this time as they’re all flower children) as they debate war… good thing neither of them has access to nuclear weapons. Hey, cooler heads will prevail in the world and we’ll all join hands and sing “Kumbaya,” right? For the record, we’re being facetious. But as long as one of us gets to ride an atomic bomb (*hat tip Dr. Strangelove*) in the end, can you really consider it a life wasted?

TWD Tip of the Week: The Germans came close to developing plutonium during World War II. I did nazi that coming. *rimshot*

Episode 115 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Tell us more about this belly button lint collection…

Today’s Topic: Leisure.

As if you needed another reason to sit on your ass, ya oaf.

Join Art, Lex, and their guests Ashley (the former’s despondent wife) and Kat, as they chat about their favorite hobbies, least favorite hobbies and everything in between. Like, did you know geocaching is a thing? I mean, you’re likely to get eaten by a bear but you do you, boo. To be fair, with the current state of the world, perhaps being Yogi’s snack would be preferable. #sweetoblivion

TWD Tip of the Week: Margaritaville isn’t a song… it’s a way of life. Jimmy Buffett-4-Ever!

Episode 114 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Alice Cooper sang, “School’s been blown to pieces.” We’re not gonna touch that one with a ten-foot pole. 

Today’s Topic: Back to school.

Hey, are Trapper Keepers still a thing?

Join Art, Lex, and their guests Ashley (the former’s despairing wife) and Ben (the latter’s frenemy) as they discuss the drizzling sh!ts that’s the academic calendar. Was everyone Pizza Day on Friday? Did any one else’s cafeteria serve Fiestata? Why did I write this in an empty stomach? And for that matter, can someone please let me out of the locker? #morethingschange

TWD Tip of the Week: States still using corporal punishment (in schools) tend to be concentrated in the South… much like Whataburger.

Episode 113 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

The meaning of life is not to die at your desk, right? Right!?

Today’s Topic: Bad jobs.

Surprisingly, fluffer didn’t make the list.

Join Art, Lex, and their guests Kelly (yay!) and Ben (boo!), as they discuss some of the worse positions they’ve ever held. Remember when you thought nothing could be worse than school? LOL

But hey, you’ve still got your youth (or not) and vigor (flaccid eggplant), so that’s something. How long is a socially acceptable time to cry in the shower? #TobiasFünke

TWD Tip of the Week: The cemetery is full of indispensable people. Take an extra half hour for lunch.

Episode 112 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

The Mothman predicted this podcast…

Today’s Topic: Cryptids.

Like Fox Mulder, we want to believe. Like Dana Scully, we’re skeptical and also hotties!

Join Art, Lex, and their guest Miranda as they discuss the creatures that may or may not exist on the fringes of society. Hey, remember a hundred (or so) episodes ago when we watched a porno featuring Bigfoot. We’re not saying that special moment wasn’t the inspiration for this episode… but we’re not saying it wasn’t either. #callback

TWD Tip of the Week: Be the cryptid you’d want to see in the woods. ❤️
