That Was Disappointing...

Episode 181 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Our kids are totally gonna dominate Chess Club. 

Today’s Topic: Youth Sports.

Wanna guess the odds Lex mentions Youth BJJ?

Join Art, Lex and Producer Kenny (featuring the lovely Kerrianne), as they chat about living vicariously through their children, hoping they’ll be the next Shohei Ohtani, Patrick Mahomes, Gordon Ryan, etc. To be fair, isn’t it the hope of every parent that their children have more success than they did. I mean, it’s gonna be tough to outperform an award-winning podcast (*coughs*), but we have faith in our kiddos.

Hopefully, their biggest accomplishment isn’t throwing us into a nursing home someday. #extrajelloplease

TWD Tip of the Week: The Sandlot > Little Giants > The Mighty Ducks

Episode 180 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

You down with BJJ? (Yeah you know me)

Today’s Topic: Gi vs. No Gi.

Truthfully, Lex looks hot (Sexy Lexy!) in both.

Join Art, Lex and Producer (!) Kenny, along with their friend internet- misconnection Ashley, as they chat about what attire is the most apropos for the dojo. A bunch of No Gi peeps canceled on us at the last minute, so Gi won by a margin of 2-0. What? You didn’t think Art or Producer Kenny had an opinion on this topic did you? The former is too brittle and the latter is too chicken to step on the mats. #internettoughguys

TWD Tip of the Week: Please wear shorts with your spats.

Episode 179 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

No love for Shasta?

Today’s Topic: Coke vs. Pepsi.

Get ready to throw your elbows!

Join Art and Lex, along with ex-producer (podcast)/current-producer (YouTube) Kenny and Jack-of-all-Boobs Ben, as they chat about the cola wars… or lack thereof. Yes, Coke reigns supreme for most of this motley crew of fools, but Lex has a hard-on for Dr. Pepper, which is really its own entity (though not for his lack of trying to shoehorn it into Pepsi). Kenny considers Dr. Pepper to be swill, but considering how many times he’s quit this podcast, what the hell does he know? #shotsfired

TWD Tip of the Week: The phosphoric acid in Coke is great at cutting through grease. And that’s what most of our panel is ingesting…

Episode 178 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Now THAT’s an echo chamber!

Today’s Topic: Post-Thanksgiving Holiday Lull.

Bet you can’t guess how many guests showed up…

Join Art (and eventually Lex) as they half-ass another episode. Did you know Lex wasn’t on time because he was eating a Brussels sprouts sandwich? True story! That should tell you where our priorities lie, but you love us anyway. And as an added bonus, we have not one but TWO emails from the Ghost this week. Who is this man/woman/cretin? What’s their obsession with Lex’s (deceased) mom? And who was on the grassy knoll? The truth… probably isn’t out there. #dealwithit

TWD Tip of the Week: The older you get, the more you respect the Jelly of the Month Club.

Episode 177 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Periphery rocks!

Today’s Topic: Thanksgiving 2023.

Lex is planning the cringiest feast since Charlie Brown. ❤️

Join Art and Lex, along with ex-producer (podcast)/current-producer (YouTube) Kenny, and bombshell Kelly, as they undue their top button and chat about their favorite fixins for the holiday on Thursday. Oh, and the Macy’s Day Parade. After all, it’s not the official start of the holiday season until Santa’s big red @$$ comes down Broadway. Bonus: There’s a mystery afoot and our humble podcast is going to solve it. Teri Hatcher (if that is your real name), your goose, err… turkey is cooked. #biggerthantheWarrenCommission

TWD Tip of the Week: There are two kinds of people in this world. Those who like cranberry sauce in a can and those who can suck a big fat one.

Episode 176 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Back to work, ya hippies.

Today’s Topic: Strikes, Sicknesses and Shenanigans.

Huzzah!

Join Art and Lex, along with ex-producer (podcast)/current-producer (YouTube) Kenny, bombshell(s) Kelly and Kerrianne, and Jack-of-all-Boobs Ben, as they chat about unions (“What is it good for? Absolutely something! Say it again y’all”) and the benefits they’ve reaped for their members the past few months. It’s like that payroll deduction actually means something. Meanwhile, we’re just trying to find a way to write off Viagra as a business expense. #inchworm

TWD Tip of the Week: Feed a cold, starve the flu, but whack off regardless.

Episode 175 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Grimace got a lot more love for his birthday…

Today’s Topic: Grinds My Gears/Lex and Art Birthday Medley.

We’re both old so the less said about the latter the better.

Join Art and Lex, along with ex-producer (podcast)/current-producer (YouTube) Kenny, bombshell Kelly and Jack-of-all-Boobs Ben, as they chat about a topic that would make Peter Griffin proud. Not to mention what knowledge everyone has acquired in their 40+ journeys around the Sun. For example, did you know that no one on todays episode had to hike 5 miles to school (uphill!) in the snow? They do want you to keep off their grass though. #legalizeit

TWD Tip of the Week: The Happy Birthday tune might be copyrighted but our outro music is in the public domain. Boner!

Episode 174 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

A podcast so hot one of the co-hosts had to remove their shirt.

Today’s Topic: Halloween 2023.

This one kinda goes off the rails considering no one really showed up. It’s like your 9th birthday party all over again. 

Join Art and Lex, along with ex-producer (podcast)/current-producer (YouTube) Kenny, as they chat about ghosts and goblins. No, not that hard-ass-balls video game, we’re talking All Hallows Eve. Although you’d be hard pressed to find anything as scary as a semi-naked Lex. Let’s just say it’s a good thing this show is made especially for your *listening* pleasure. #yourewelcome

TWD Tip of the Week: As a PSA, no one is putting drugs in your kid’s bag. Especially not in this economy!

Episode 173 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Behold… Lex-Bot 3000!

Today’s Topic: HMO vs. PPO.

Yep, Lex got vetoed and we’re back to our old format. womp womp

Join Art and Lex, along with ex-producer (podcast)/current-producer (YouTube) Kenny, as they chat about the healthcare industry. No major revelations. Hell, 2/3 of your panel doesn’t even know what the difference is between the plans. But that’s not why you’re here. No, you’re here for the new AI portion of our program. If we could use one word to describe it, it’d be “glorious.” #sentientLex

TWD Tip of the Week: Lex-Bot 3000 would definitely have a threesome with Alexa and Siri.

Episode 172 of That Was Disappointing is Live.

Heavens to Murgatroyd, there’s war in the Middle East. 

Today’s Topic: Headlines for the week ending 10/15/2023.

Texas can go suck a fat one (F you Rangers/Astros). Art, that’s “sportsball” talk.

Join Art and Lex, along with their friends ex-producer Kenny and Cosmic Kelly, as they chat about the powder keg that’s the world. Hey, will there still be infrastructure to support the launch of this podcast on Monday? Hopefully, if only because that’ll mean Lex didn’t waste part of his weekend writing the show notes. Thats 15 minutes (okay, 30 seconds) he could’ve had back, ya know). #firstworldproblems

TWD Tip of the Week: Maybe it’s time to invest in oil…
