The Butthole Surfers in the 1980s - Fecal Manna from Heaven (Episode 42)

1 hour 14 minutes

In this episode, we explore the world of the Butthole Surfers during the 1980s when they were the best live band in the country and one of the most interesting bands ever. Much of the show is spent on stories of debauchery, including feeding excrement to fish, exploring the flammability of New Jersey, ex-presidents touching defiled suitcases, and more! Join us, won't you?

Most of the research for this episode came from these three books:
