The Final Edition

This week, I’ve been dealing with a loss of listeners because somehow our uploads to our distributor, Acast, have not been transferring properly to an Android app called Doggcatcher. And by “this week,” I mean close to a month. And by “loss of listeners,” I mean … like … a LOT of listeners.

And by “dealing with,” I mean getting no solutions, as Acast, Doggcatcher and I sort through various error messages.

So this week, we’ve got sketches about computers — because God, they’re driving me out of my fuckin’ mind.

Also, the entire second part of the show is the concluding segment of “The Obscure County Election That Changed Nothing.” I’m just going to let that one play out, including the credits.

This week, Wells Fargo wants something from you, John Cena is giving something away, my home state is on fire and … it’s Veteran’s Day sometime around now. Also, the next-to-last episode of The Obscure County Election That Changed Nothing. It’s going to be kind of a sad one. But you knew this was coming if you’ve been paying attention, or if you were working in newspapers about thirteen years ago.

It’s Halloween, and we’ve got a collection of sketches about vampires and zombies and weirdos - although I guess, technically, all of our show are about weirdos. Plus, episode five of the Obscure County Election That Changed Nothing - which is not really about Halloween. But what do you care?

Some sketches about the stupid divisions in this country - with a note of hope. Maybe misguided hope. I don’t know. Plus episode 4 of the Obscure County Election That Changed Nothing - which is also political, but in a dumber, earlier, less scary, more small-town way than what we’re used to.

We’re moving toward the holidays: with Halloween, and gnomes, and Tucker Carlson, normal subway riders and lots of other mythical creatures. Plus, part three of “The Obscure County Election That Changed Nothing.” And at the end of the show, Ben sings again. I’m warning you now.

This week we have more sketches about the media - because, of course, this show is made by people in and on the fringes of media and largely, currently, unemployed by it. Resumes available online. We’ve also got episode 2 of The Obscure County Election That Changed Nothing - which also involves the media. It’s almost like I planned what I’m doing. Almost.

This week, we visit Area 51. And we continue getting motivated. Also, we’ve got the first episode of a seven-part series I did a few years back called “The Obscure County Election That Changed Nothing.” I worked for awhile at papers in New Jersey, and that title pretty much sums up my experience there. And finally, to cap off the show, Dominique has written an epic. About a car ride.

This week, no small number of sketches about food and TV. And it’s already football season - which seems weird somehow. Plus Corey Lewandowski testified before Congress. Remember that? Didn’t we all learn something?

This week, every sketch is new. A few more things about vacation. Plus, Samantha interviews a fan. Ben and I talk about baseball while it’s still the season. And apparently conservative Christians are telling me how to be a Jew. So … thanks?

We are back with new sketches as well as some classics - many of them about vacations, since we just got back from one. And work. Because you can’t have vacations without work. Though you can have work without vacations. Trust me on that one.
