The Petri Dish

I hop on the horn this week to talk about my week, being on crazy meds, locking up my guns, and then some local news!

I sit down with Jonathan Allgood this week for an extremely brief podcast. We verify that Marilyn Manson definitely removed his ribs, I eulogize my dog Phat Boi with some AI Minecraft parkour brainrot, we finally take the Soup vs. Sauce debate into 2025 after some proper studying, and then we cap it all off with the people's favorite new game Man or Bear. Then we get cut off by the free Zoom call because I'm doing broke boy activities.

Where do you draw the line on soups vs sauces? We don't know, and we've never known. I'm burnt out and you're getting a clip show, there's a bit of new commentary though so that's cool.

I got married, a self-driving car yelled at me, most importantly Jonathan HATES Jerry Seinfeld and if Jerry ever sees that you should make sure Jonathan knows that you hate him too. Also I debut my new game show "MAN OR BEAR" where I make guests guess whether a news story was perpetuated by a man or a bear.

That's right, the podcast is back! I talk about what I did in 2024, including a cringy millennial music parody YouTube show. I completely forgot to talk about getting married; maybe next time.

What we do get to is Costco monkey slavery, Jonathan's bible verses, wrestling, and all our classic Petri Dish banter.

My WiFi didn't like this podcast, and because of the weird app I used for editing, I can't fix how out of sync my voice is from the video. Sorry!

THE PODCAST IS DEAD, LONG LIVE THE PODCAST.

That's right, the podcast as we've known and loved it since November 2016 is finally coming to a close. When I first fired up this feed as "Post-Nuclear Reno" I never thought it would become and almost 8-year-long obsession over the dumbest jokes possible that I would then try to call a "content strategy".

The first 100 episodes were a labor of love for a comedy scene that I was way too active in. The next 100 episodes were a deep dive into myself and the people I surrounded myself with. I think the energy expended could be better utilized in some new creative ventures. So I will say goodbye to this beautiful podcast feed. Youtube will still have a few of these newer hybrid video episodes up, I may keep releasing long-form podcast-type videos on that same feed but right now I'm going to focus on edited things.

EDIT: None of the projects I was working on worked out and I miss having a podcast.

I've got Jonathan Allgood here to ring in the new year, we have almost nothing to talk about other than dick sweat. So strap in, it's just a straight-up hour of dick jokes and broader scientific dick concepts. While that's not entirely a lie we also get into In-n-Outs french fry secrets, the rise and fall of Huy Fong Sriracha, apocalyptic Taco Bell Plans, anger issues, and getting back into the standup mood.

Me and Jonathan are here to talk about fighting animals with our bare hands, Jonathan's Tetris mastery, Spotify goosing Green Day's numbers, and some other things.

The alternative title for this episode was going to be "Old Man Yells At Cloud" but instead I went with something more to the point. I complain about the music industry and 15 minutes and then you all get to go back to your lives.

Here's the article I was talking about: https://killerguitarrigs.com/bumblefoot-musicians-t-shirt-salesmen-record-deals-loan/

This week Jonathan and I summoned the strength to talk shit about all our Gen Z haters, then I talked about my dead dogs, and that's pretty much it, see you later.
