Thirty-Eight Forty-Eight: The Podcast

OUT ON BAIL, FRESH OUTTA JAIL JUSSIE SMOLLETT SCHEMIN’…

 

Yo, it’s the return of 2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted, and we back like Jordan for our 23rd episode here and this time we have special guest @JarrettAbello, a dear friend of the podcast (and lyricist extraordinaire) who recently had his Jussie Smollett / Gay 2Pac meme (see episode artwork) re-posted on Instagram / Twitter by the one and only @50cent!! He joins us this week to lend his thoughts, expert opinion and humorous outlook on the whole Jussie Smollet MAGA attack investigation (hoax?) while we question him on his experience suddenly becoming Insta-famous overnight! Make sure you guys follow him on Instagram and show him some California Love. Other topics this episode include Kev and Ross’ update on “Temptation Island,” Matt Watson and his #youTubewakeup movement, and the gang also listens to and reviews Cheetos’ diss track against Doritos & Chance the Rapper. (Spoiler alert: Chester Cheetah, we ain’t mad at cha.)

 

This episode is in no way sponsored by Subway.

So... Apparently 21 Savage is British? What part of the game is this?

 

This episode we're talking about Sir 21 Savage of Newham, Kev and Ross' obsession with the new (old) USA show "Temptation Island," Superbowl XLIII and it's many failures (including that Maroon 5 performance), we review the Netflix series "You" and lastly, we talk about Liam Neeson suddenly being racist all of a sudden... (Wait, no, we actually don't discuss that last one. Maybe next week we'll do a podcast on all our fallen heroes.)

 

Enjoy.

DRRAAAKEEE?!?!

Sorry. That's all on our minds this week. Of course this episode we're talking about the AMAZING return of Soulja Boy! We put some respek on his name and legacy, discuss his controversial decision to sell video game consoles and argue over whether he did in fact have the best comeback of 2018 as he claimed in interviews last week. We also talk about how an Apple Watch saved a man's life, Kev & Ross share their uniquely horrifying experiences visiting a doctor's office, the Lincoln Memorial standoff between Native Americans and Kentucky high school students and lastly, we talk about Trump's obsession with "hamberders" and the Great American Government Shutdown. Our thoughts and prayers are with the government employees who are currently furloughed and working without pay. We hope this government shutdown ends very soon.

Enter the Mind of Kevin, past the bolted doors where impossible things happen that the world's never seen before... Wait. No. That's the theme to Dexter's Laboratory. My bad. Anywhoo.. This episode we're answering questions #12 - #15 covering topics such as R. Kelly, the #10yearchallenge, ghosting someone while texting, the Mandela Effect...and Prohibition? Yep. Enter at your own peril.

What's up 2019! How you doin'? We're back and so excited for the year ahead for Thirty-Eight Forty-Eight Podcast. We open up this year with questions regarding everyone's obsession with Netflix's new film "Bird Box" (SPOILER WARNING!!), comedian Louis C.K. extremely controversial recent stand-up appearance, and talk about a very interesting YouTube series we watched by Pleasant Green where he decides to take on Nigerian Scammers and embarks on a quest to help one scammer turn his life around for the better. Also, Ross bought Kev a Kangol hat for his birthday, lol.

 

 This episode we answer questions #9 - #11:

SPOILER ALERT - Why is everybody talking about Bird Box?[1] (6:50)

Once you have been canceled, how much time can pass before you’re allowed to step back into the limelight? Case in question: Louis C.K. [2] (25:47)

Correcting a mistake in the episode where we stated that Bird Box was released on Netflix on Dec. 28th, it was released on December 14th.

Just because the calendar says Hanukkah is over, doesn't mean that it's over for everyone. Here at Thirty-Eight Forty-Eight Podcast, we celebrate Hanukkah all the way till December 24th, a.k.a Kevin's birthday! Happy Birthday to our co-host Kevin who celebrates his 27th birthday! If it wasn't for him, this podcast would be anti-comedy for sure.

From this point forward, Thirty-Eight Forty-Eight will aim to answer 3,848 of life’s most interesting questions (or at least the most interesting questions to us).

Hey what's up guys? This week we're talking about DATING. Yeah that's right, the "D" word. We take a deep dive into a first date that Kevin had recently and try to answer some questions like: How do you spit game and land a date? What's a good ice breaker? Oh, and have you ever been on a first date with someone who was high? Lastly, Ross entertains us with his worst first date experience on Tinder and unknowingly shows us how he might've single handedly killed the kangol hat style. 

This episode was approved by Samuel L. Jackson.

What a show today! This episode we discuss our symbiotic relationship with Netflix and reminisce on the first things we watched on Watch Instantly before it changed the world as we know it. We also answer r/AskReddit questions regarding serial killers: What would you have the media dub your serial killer name? Also, what are the best occupations for a serial killer to have? Lastly we discuss Disney and how they're going to fuck up The Lion King remake, because you know they will. Disagree? Oh man... Hit us up on IG, Twitter or Facebook and let's talk about it. Lol Enjoy!

Ho-ho---wait! That's early. Thanksgiving literally just ended. Hope you've awoken from your tryptophan coma and that your Back Friday shopping experience wasn't apocalyptic. Episode 15 is out and we talkin' about the (negative) spirit of gift giving, some cool Black Friday deals and why Red Lobster sucks ass. Also, we discuss what it would be like if you held the whole entire world's attention for 30 seconds on some God-level mode. 

 

Peep this for the holidays.
