Every wonder about duck junk? For not being the biggest bird fan on the podcast, Marissa is fascinated with one aspect of ducks. Find out how much she’s learned from a questionable amount of research. Plus, find out what a boxing bar is. What’s your favorite french fry? Are you seeing Coyote vs ACME? What […]
They say that too much money changes people, but Bryan Johnson may be proof that it doesn’t (for creeps). Find out how this guy is planning to live forever and currently experimenting on his girlfriend. What would you pour tons of money into? How’s your vaginal microbiome? Do you have boners whenever you fall asleep?
We have some audio trouble with Marissa at the start, but we sort it out before she begins schooling us on taste testing and taste testers. Think it’s just eating food all day? Think it doesn’t affect your life that much? THINK AGAIN! We also talk about reality game show pitches, Temu bug threats, and […]
Marissa saw Backrooms again. Speaking of being lost, Pete talks about Silver Plume, CO, and a few men who mysteriously met uncertain fates there. Both hosts also breeze through how they’re doing (spoiler: they’re okay). Where would you hide a backrooms entrance? What do you think happened to these men?
The duo returns with more talk about self-driving cars! Marissa explores safety details, mechanics, and why Elon Musk is a liar (about his cars, among other things). Marissa has a hot 4th of July planned, Pete reflects on quadruple overtime, and both tell you their choice utensils. What utensil would you use for the rest […]
Once in a while Pete messes up and brings a sad topic to the show. That happened this week. Marissa is still obsessed with Backrooms, Pete took a long walk, and we talk about simple pleasures. Would you riot over food? How much would you pay for a ketchup packet? What are your simple pleasures?
This week, Pete picked a topic that he knew would irritate Marissa, but he didn’t know she’d be flying off the expletive handle so quickly. We follow-up on the Enhanced Games, explore the developing world of self-driving taxis, and express our opinions about Backrooms. So what’s your dream transportation? What did you think of Backrooms? […]
So your kid thinks they’re a dog. What comes next? We’re not sure, but Marissa’s going to try and explain therians to us. She’s also back-dooring her disdain for labels. What animal do you think you are? What should Marissa see in London? Which will you watch– Hoppers or Michael?
Detective Marissa solves the case of the missing basketball hoop, and the perpetrator is shocking! Pete talks about the Enhanced Games and the details you may not know about. We also talk about enhanced powers we’d like, mom hot takes, and more. Who are you rooting for this WNBA season? What enhancements would you like? […]
Marissa’s taking us on a ride this week, profiling the raw deal of Darius McCollum. We also talk about phone companies, Pete bought a wood chipper, and Marissa is really OKAY! How would you sentence Darius McCollum? How would you sell a new phone company?
Marissa’s moving and it ain’t easy, and Pete wishes he was retired. We talk about collectables and then a man who took collectable cards too far. We learn all about how cards are valued and the controversies surrounding those methods. Do you like Justin Timberlake trolls? How would you rob a bank? What’s your best […]
Marissa’s concerned about her hands, and Pete’s another year older. Watch how you review the L. Ron Hubbard House, too. Find out who’s annoying each of us this week and how to resist turning into a physically evolved phone user. Who would you start a baseless war with? How many hours do you spend on […]
Due to some scheduling issues, we’re releasing a re-run this week from March 2020, where we had a lot of fun but don’t remember doing it. There are lots of 2020 references, so travel back to a time of uncertainty and quarantining… No usual sound cues, most of the ums left in, and all the […]
Marissa is in turmoil, Pete is at the dentist, and Long Island is (was) under siege. Listen up for details on all of this and the nerdy things we do. Do you bite things with your front teeth? Do you have a lead on a rental near Hershey? Do you own a black jumpsuit?
Marissa dishes about her disdain for the alternative halftime show and her adoration of slam poetry. Am I kidding about that last part? Alex leaves a voicemail, Pete talks too much, and both hosts try to figure out why anyone would like Kid Rock. What did you do for the Super Bowl?
To avoid the obvious crumbling of society, we cover NBA Mascots, like the two weirdos featured in this episode’s picture. We touch on snow, wish you a happy Groundhog Day, and find symbols we’d like to see from aliens. View the pictures from this episode. Who’s your favorite featured mascot? Did we go too hard […]
Stranger Things is over, but some people will not accept it. Marissa fills us in on conspiracy theories about the final season. Also: she gets older, Pete can’t remember anything, and we resurrect some animals. How was your break from us? What did you wish happened in the Stranger Things finale?
In this not-safe-for-kids holiday episode, Pete offers some hidden meanings in Christmas classics. Neither host can see properly, and one can barely speak properly. We’ll be back from our holiday break in January. Until then, what secret meanings do you see in holiday specials?
What’s going on with these glasses? What’s going on with eye glasses? How are people surviving in a world with blurry vision and scarce coffee cups? Do bears serve you coffee in the morning?
This week Pete talks about how e-scooters and e-bikes are getting kind of annoying– I mean dangerous. With injuries, deaths, and sales on the rise, who’s to stop this micromobility revolution? Pete also talks about shameful secrets, Marissa contends with Mormons, and Marissa finds something new in common with her parents. Do you have a […]
Believe it or not, this is not a Pete episode. This time, Marissa tells us how she was surprised by dong on TV and the research she did on what’s allowable on HBO. How does SAG feel about it? How do others feel about it? And most importantly, what do you need to add to […]
Your favorite podcast hosts come together to discuss some confusing horror characters– Glen/Glenda from Child’s Play and “it” (I guess?) from It Follows. What would you make the new Fall flavor? Do you think Pete actually saw It Follows? What are you doing this Halloween?
Leading up to the Hallo-day, we dip into the famous cryptid, the Mothman– the sightings, the social influence, the unanswerable questions. What cryptid would you prefer to run into? Is a moth a bird? How do you feel about metal butts?
In one of our best cases of “what you didn’t need to know,” Marissa introduces us all to Target’s Lewis, a jack-o-lantern, who has allegedly taken the world by storm. Pete discovers the identity of a beloved cookie and Marissa’s selling pumpkins again. Who would you make your Halloween mascot?
What exactly is it that these media people have been talking about for the past five years (or more)? Pete explains the Deep State while Marissa sounds off. What kid’s meal toy do you remember most? Are you part of the Deep State?
