  • Grok You Like A Hurricane

    This is surely the greatest episode we've ever made since the last one. We discuss sleep problems, the real meaning of CPAP, paintings, a trip to the DMV, and most importantly, how Grok's seemingly deeply ingrained misogyny will eventually send a rocket to Mars.

    Timestamps:
    0:00 “Your mom’s a microphone.”
    1:08 Ben is a total child
    2:00 What CPAP actually stands for

    6:51 Discussion of a creepy painting of a child in front of a fireplace.
    7:38 Being a bald person at the DMV
    9:36 What we think of ourselves vs. what we actually are.

  • The Great American Experiment

    Well if it ain't the best damn episode since our last one! I try to get us to talk about the time we were in marching band together, but we take plenty of detours on the way there, as you can see from these deluxe timestamps:

    0:00 The Great American Experiment
    2:28 OJ Simpson’s glove
    4:00 Marching band false start
    5:15 Co-HAIR-ent-ing

  • Daddy Yankee Candle

    Happy new year! This is the best episode we've uploaded since 2025! Which means it's our first episode of 2026. We talk about The Prince of Persia, bidets, homelessness in Portland, World War 2, modern art, reggaeton, and much, much more!

  • Goodbye, 2025

    The best episode since our last episode. It's the end of the year. Tyler dressed up. Ben did not. Tyler had a bottle of apple cider ready on hand. Ben had a salt shaker. And thus we toasted the greatest year ever for our podcast. We talked about what would make next year worst, what might improve things going forward, and a whole lot of other random crap. #podcast #comedy #newyear

  • A Very A.I. Christmas

    Wow! It's the best episode since our last episode! Merry Christmas! We talk about the Grinch, Jesus, the Epstein files, how awful A.I. is, and how you ultimately need to embrace your A.I. overlords. Just embrace it, you idiot. Just do it. Just embrace it. Embrace artificial intelligence so that it can then make you artificially intelligent. Just do it. Do it. Idiot.

  • Spoil Sports

    This is most definitely our best episode since the last one. We talk about butts, the one time Ben spoiled a soccer game for his friends, the increasing speed at which trends rise and fall, the movie RRR, the stock market, and we finish with Ben doing a bad Scottish accent and propositioning Ewan McGregor.

  • BANANAPOCALYPSE

    Our best episode since our last episode. It's literally impossible to come up with ideas for this show. So Ben used a random-thing-generator as a way to figure out what to discuss. The results are really dumb. #comedy #podcast #banana
