The Lone Star Podcast

We’re back at it again with the Garbage Lightning Round.  Any Xbox players out there? Big fans of Drew Barrymore?  Think Harden should’ve won MVP?  Still rock board shorts?  Come at us, bro.

Today, Ben and Alex tackle the garbage behemoth that is “Troll 2,” a cult classic horror written and directed by Claudio Fragasso.  “The Room” has been getting all the attention as of late, but we should never forget this scrappy contender for best worst movie ever made.  Brought to you by fear.  Very spooky.

The time has come. This week, Alex and Ben tackle a Lone Star Recipe: The Hot Dog Nutty Fritter.

The LSDFS tradition continues!  Today’s episode opens with luxuries like scotch, cigars, and fine dining, until the boys remember that they’re actually peasants and bring it back down to earth with favorites like Lord of the Rings, fresh jeans, and The Prado Sisters.  Brought to you by Planters EpiPens.

Your premiere purveyors of garbage content transform into… Your premiere CREATORS of garbage content!!  Join Alex and Ben today as they literally waste 10 minutes of your time.

In the shadow of recent incidents, the LSP team has decided to take a closer look at members of the U.S. Congress who have received the highest contributions and ratings from the NRA.  Today, Ben sits down with special guest John Zdrojeski to debate what exactly defines a Lone Star Politician and which Reps and Senators out of our firearms-funded selection fit the bill.

Today, Ben and Alex are joined by special guest Maggie McCaffery as they venture into the Holy Grail genre of garbage content–reality television.  On the menu: “Unveiled,” a makeover show about brides-to-be who undergo cosmetic surgery to look perfect for their wedding day, and “Canada’s Worst Driver,” a competition show that’s exactly what it sounds like.

Back on the Garbage Grind, the boys came across a Reddit thread that posed the question: “What’s the worst thing you’ve ever done?”  Thus, an episode was born.  This week, join Alex and Ben as they sift through these anonymous transgressions and dig up a few personal childhood memories that still make them cringe.

We’re back at it again for our 2nd LSDFS special, where we talk about things that we love.  Happy things like LeBron James, Moog, Hunter x Hunter, The Whole30, and the bodega on 74th and 1st, to name a few.  Join Ben, Alex, Charmander, and Jennifer Jessica Jennifer this week for a barrel of laughs and an hour of joy.

The boys are reunited on the same coast for this special episode of the pod.  Think of it as an open forum of garbage content: Alex and Ben make lists of things that they hate, surprise each other with them, and discuss.  From beer brands to political philosophy, join us this week as we talk about things over which we have little to no authority.
