Who would have thought we would have gone 72 Episodes of this silliness. Not our teachers and parents (they actually thought we would do something useful with our lives).
Andrew talks about some news stories you might have missed. Seth tries to tie up all the loose ends before we shutter the podcast for good. And we answer YOUR questions!!
But we did this one LIVE in Seth's apartment with some of our friends and family. It was an absolute blast, and we love everyone who came out. We also love you, dear listener. Thanks for being there for all the yucks and all the ducks (sorry, we meant to have more ducks).
You can still see what we're up to by checking out Andrew's Insta:

and Seth's comics on Insta:

Sorry if the ep is a lil echo-y at parts. It was recorded in an apartment full of people after all. It clears up at about 04:30.
ENJOY!!!

Fresh from a trip home, Andrew waxes nostalgic about his childhood baseball card selection that is maybe worth a lot of money now (but probably isn’t) before launching into some odd news stories of late, including one about a guy walking across the country in an anime-style bear costume for unclear reasons!

In this one, it's time for Seth to unburden himself of some of the useless information that he has attained while doing research for past episodes. Thankfully, Andrew is there to shoulder the weight of mental garbage such as "What game did Victorian children play with chestnuts?" "Who is the current owner of the Everlasting Gobstopper?" and of course "What is the one movie credit that both George H.W. Bush and Slimer from Ghostbusters share?"
All that and more! (also sorry if you hear a lot of clicking. I forgot to not use my mouse while recording.)
Don't forget to leave us a quick review!! (Even something real short like "Great pod!" helps a lot.)

The boys are back recording in person for the first time in 16 months and Andrew is so excited he talks about one of his favorite topics - the revolutionary navigation service Google Maps, and it’s various privacy and accuracy problems, including one that nearly caused an actual war in 2010!

The YONO boys celebrate their triumphant return to your ears by talking about the most (and least) effective anti drug PSA's of the 80's and 90's. We analyze how McGruff solved the crime and drug epidemic on our shores, and then we try to design our own PSA's to help New Zealand's war on people falling into water without being able to swim that well.
Also, I list all the things that suck about California opening up again, and Andrew takes a big swing at his old nemesis: the British crown.
(The topic starts at about 20:00 if you're in a hurry)
It's great to be back, and thanks so much to everybody for your patience and for listening!!! We love you guys.
Here are the YouTube links to all the PSA's I reference, and a few extras in case you are bored.

Okay, stick with me on this one. It's around Mother's Day. Moms are great. We spend a lot of time in this episode shining a light on some of history's moms that have been sadly left by the wayside because they don't fit in to what I'm calling the "Military Industrial Mom-plex."
But think about this: what better way is there to honor our moms, your moms, all moms than for Seth and Andrew to finally get their s-word together and become hot shot lawyers like on the TV!? That's right, in the latter half of this episode, Seth shares the extensive legal knowledge he has gained while preparing for his hearing to settle an "extended" grade dispute with a community college professor. Habeas Corpus! (That's a formal greeting, used only among lawyers.)

Andrew does the unthinkable and ditches the traditional topic format of the show to check in on his pal Seth.
They talk about being tired of Shakespeare references, how the pandemic has or hasn't changed their lives, and (Seth's impression of) Ira Glass makes a return appearance to the podcast

Seth, much like most people in our nation, spends a lot of time worrying about Andrew's tendency to live vicariously through his favorite historical figures. It's just not healthy. So, with Dickensian style (and life expectancies) the boys go on a whimsical journey, imagining what Andrew's life would be like if he suddenly switched with some of his historic heroes. And we learn that the grass may not always be greener on the other side.
