Fresh off the show’s first-ever guest appearance, WWWS returns with unfinished business.

This week features bonus content from the Lieutenant Eric conversation, as he takes on the WWWS Quizzer - a challenge designed to reveal character, test judgment, and occasionally produce answers that raise entirely new questions. As always, the questions are simple. The consequences are not.

Elsewhere, Big Uke assigns Tubesox a new movie, continuing the show’s increasingly formalized process of turning free time into mandatory homework.

And, of course, 3 Things That Can Kick Rocks returns once again, because even after a milestone episode, the list of grievances remains stubbornly renewable.

A guest epilogue. A fresh movie assignment. The usual complaints.

Normal operations have resumed.

Keep your expectations low. The show certainly has.

For the first time in show history, WWWS welcomes a guest - a development many had begun to suspect was purely theoretical.

In this Very Special Episode, Big Uke & Tubesox sit down with Lieutenant Eric from Edmonton Sports Talk for a conversation that quickly outgrows the show's usual boundaries. What started as a guest appearance turned into the longest episode in WWWS history, which seemed like a better idea than stopping a perfectly good conversation just because the clock (or Edgar) said so.

There are no rankings, no movie assignments, and no scheduled grievances this week. Just three people talking about sports, broadcasting, life, and whatever else wanders into the room and grabs a microphone.

A first guest. A different format. A milestone for the show.

The segments will be back next week.

For now, you'll have to settle for an extra fifteen minutes of WWWS.

Keep your expectations low. This is still WWWS.

Season 2 rolls on with the confidence of a show that has firmly established its routine and no longer feels obligated to explain any of it.

This week, Tubesox unveils another Top 10, carefully assembled, confidently presented, and immediately subjected to the usual scrutiny, debate, and procedural challenges. The rankings are set. Their legitimacy remains under review.

Edgar's Fun Facts also returns, continuing its long-running mission to educate, confuse, and occasionally accomplish both at the same time. As always, the term "fun" remains open to interpretation.

Meanwhile, Big Uke reports back on his latest movie assignment, Bullitt (1968). What follows is a review that attempts to balance thoughtful analysis with whatever details managed to survive the viewing experience. Whether the film and the review arrive at the same destination remains unclear.

And, as always, 3 Things That Can Kick Rocks returns to close things out, proving once again that some grievances are simply too important to let go.

Rankings. Facts. Fast cars. Slow forgiveness.

The season keeps moving forward. The complaints remain right where they left them.

Season 2 continues with the confidence of a show that survived its premiere and has chosen to interpret that as validation.

This week marks the season’s first trip into the WWWS Mailbag, where listener submissions once again range from thoughtful observations to questions that raise entirely new concerns. As always, every message is treated with the appropriate level of consideration, which is to say: inconsistently.

Say What Now? also returns, placing Big Uke back in the linguistic danger zone as he attempts to decipher the meanings of old-timey slang. History provides the words. Big Uke provides the guesses. The gap between the two remains substantial.

Meanwhile, Tubesox delivers his review of Captain Phillips (2013), offering thoughts, observations, and at least one opinion that may not survive further examination. Not content to leave well enough alone, the show immediately assigns Big Uke a new movie, ensuring the cycle of reluctant viewing and future accountability remains fully operational.

And of course, 3 Things That Can Kick Rocks returns for another week of grievances, irritations, and highly specific complaints directed toward targets that may or may not deserve them.

Old slang. New mail. Maritime tension. Fresh resentment.

The season settles into its rhythm. The judgment remains unchecked.

Season 2 begins the only way WWWS knows how: with renewed confidence, questionable preparedness, and the firm belief that time away has somehow improved everyone involved.

After a brief hiatus spent allegedly resting, regrouping, and avoiding microphones, Big Uke & Tubesox are back refreshed, recharged, and immediately in rhythm - or at least back in the room pretending rhythm was ever the goal.

Big Uke’s Bunch O’ Stuff kicks things off once again, arriving with the usual mixture of conviction, observational drift, and conclusions reached well ahead of supporting evidence. The Future That Wasn’t also re-emerges for Season 2, revisiting failed predictions from the past with the kind of confidence only hindsight can provide.

And, in a tradition now fully embedded into the structure of the show, Tubesox is assigned a new movie - continuing the ongoing cycle of forced viewing, reluctant analysis, and future disagreement.

Of course, 3 Things That Can Kick Rocks is also back for another season, because some grievances simply refuse to remain in the past. Petty complaints, unnecessary hostility, and strangely specific frustrations remain fully operational heading into Season 2.

The break is over. The momentum remains suspiciously intact.
Season 2 begins with energy, optimism, and absolutely no meaningful self-correction.

The archive reopens for a second installment of the WWWS Clip Show Spectacular - this time pulling from Episodes 8 through 15, otherwise known as the period where the show stopped “finding itself” and started settling into whatever this has become.

Snake Eyes Pt. 2 revisits the era of growing confidence, expanding segments, increasingly specific grievances, and the now historically significant “Episode 13 peak.” From failed predictions and old-timey slang to movie assignments, mailbags, rankings, and the slow realization that the episodes were getting noticeably longer, the second half of Season 1 is somewhat adequately documented here.

Compared to the first clip show (which often felt intentionally designed to test the audience’s concentration, patience, and general willingness to continue) this collection is slightly more focused, marginally more coherent, and organized just enough to create the dangerous illusion of professionalism. 

The structure improves. The conversations do not.

A retrospective. A victory lap. A carefully edited timeline of escalating commitment.

Keep your expectations low - but the momentum, somehow, remains undeniable.

The tapes have been pulled. The evidence has been reviewed. And against all better judgment, WWWS presents its first-ever Clip Show Spectacular - a carefully assembled collection of moments, side quests, breakdowns, grievances, and conversational detours gathered from Episodes 1 through 7.

Snake Eyes Pt. 1 revisits the early days of the show: back when the structure was still theoretical, the confidence was completely unearned, and nobody fully understood what this thing was becoming. From the first mailbags to old grudges, strange facts, collapsing logic, and the beginnings of several recurring problems, it’s all here — now conveniently reorganized into one sprawling retrospective.

Some moments hold up surprisingly well. Others should probably have remained buried in the archive.

Either way, the momentum was already forming.

A clip show. A recap. A historical document of escalating instability.

Against a backdrop of absolutely no external validation - but an overwhelming internal sense of achievement - What Were We Saying? barrels into its season finale with the confidence of a show that assumes it stuck the landing three episodes ago.

This week, the Tubesox Top 10 returns, now carrying the quiet authority of a segment that has never once missed, been questioned, or required revision. Meanwhile, The Future That Wasn’t digs confidently into the past to explain why everything went wrong, despite offering no actionable solutions.

Big Uke delivers his  review of Detour (1945), a film that, much like the show itself, spirals into chaos with unwavering commitment. Interpretations vary, conclusions are drawn, and at least one take is presented with alarming certainty.

And, in a move befitting a finale of this magnitude, the show closes out with 3 Things That Can Kick Rocks - a segment that dares to say what others won’t, mostly because others haven’t been asked.

No lessons learned. No loose ends tied up. Just a finale that insists...firmly, repeatedly...that this was the plan all along.

Coming off what is now being described - carefully, and without inviting further scrutiny - as the “Episode 13 peak”, WWWS returns still riding a wave of questionable momentum. Nothing has been confirmed to have changed, but the energy is allegedly different.

This week also marks their longest episode yet, a development that suggests confidence, poor time management, or most likely, a slow drift into self-indulgence.

This week features the return of “Say What Now?”, where Big Uke is once again put on the spot to guess the meanings of old-timey slang. The results range from “strangely close” to “legally indefensible,” with language itself taking a few hits along the way.

The WWWS Mailbag is re-opened, with listener submissions handled in real time and with varying levels of comprehension. A dumb news item also finds its way into the mix, settling in like it was always part of the plan.

On top of all this, Big Uke is assigned a movie outside of the segment chaos, continuing his ongoing role as the show’s resident cinematic test subject.

And, as always, closing things out with unwavering commitment and decreasing patience: “3 Things That Can Kick Rocks.” Still petty. Still unnecessary. Still somehow structurally important.

It’s the biggest episode so far. Not necessarily the tightest.

Expectations remain low - but the runtime is not…and the hot streak?  It inexplicably continues.

Episode 13 of What Were We Saying? may be the best one yet (firmly top four) - a triumphant return to form… allegedly.

After the problematic - and frankly disappointing - events of Episode 12, the show lurches back with something resembling control. Big Uke rolls in with his Bunch O’ Stuff, firing off takes that range from oddly sharp to completely uncalled for. Edgar’s Fun Facts also slips back in, as he begins the quiet, fragile rebuild of trust following last week’s… audio debacle.

And yes, 3 Things That Can Kick Rocks refuses to go away - because some traditions run less on quality, and more on momentum.

A comeback. A correction. A generous overstatement.
Keep your expectations low.
