  • Episode 4 - Shartcooterie or Never Have I Ever
    6/9/2018 -- We start off this episode with a do-over that just becomes the show's start as our audio engineer Brian gets in on the fun! Sometimes mistakes are beautiful. Leigh tries to convince Mr. I to talk to a rock. The team plays the delightfully hetero-normative 'Never Have I Ever'. It turns out both Mr. I and Leigh are trash, just in different ways. Deadpool 2 (spoiler palooza) and RIP Anthony Bourdain. The duo plays their own game - Apocalypse Now - to test their theories about the apocalypse. Take a trip into a fictional apocalypse - the Planet of the Apes - for a safe container in which to discuss the possibilities that come. Do things devolve into a gay version of 'The Handmaid's Tale'?

    5/26/18 - Mr. I and Leigh go on the hunt to find a needle in a haystack - Donald Trump's humanity. It turns out they have more in common with the Cheeto Monster than they realized. But first they nerd out on Marvel movies (no spoilers) and the perplexing phenomena of superheroines in fridges.

  • Episode 1 - Podogenesis or Cosmically Intertwined
    5/27/18 - Leigh, a comedian and mystic, and Mr. I, a scientist, start a podcast a podcast to chronicle the apocalypse. Why not just talk talk on the phone? Because it turns out the only way adults hang out is if they have a shared project. From the mundane - 90s cartoons - to the more profound - the effects of living in the closet and being a military brat - the pair learns more about each other in an hour than they have in 10 years of friendship.
