26d ago40:09

40:09

Joe and Elliott speak from opposite sides of the planet as Elliott navigates the wild world of Scotland and Joe navigates... rats? It's important to note that rats are highly intelligent and emotionally complex creatures who have done little more to earn their nefarious reputation than committing the sin of having a hairless tail.

48:47

And good morning to you, all! This is part one of a two-part series centered on a new Los Angeles attraction: COSM. No, not QUASM. That's different, but both are filled with splendor.

We're back with Joe, Steve, and Elliott and they are more on fire than the planet Andor (I didn't pay attention to the show). In this episode, we talk Boogie Nights! Andor!

Severance and Saratoga Water 1:04:57

5M ago1:04:57

1:04:57

It's that time of the year when we lower Steve into a pig trough, talk Severance, and discuss a random viral video literally MOMENTS before it expires. This is the problem with talking about memes on a podcast that goes up days later.

Left to their own devices once again, Elliott and Steve DIVE into the world of aquariums, upcoming films from long-dead (practically jurassic) franchises, and whether evolutionary panentheism offers a glimpse into the inherent meaning of life.

Drones, plasma people, and Anton Mesmer... who couldn't resist this foray into the unknown? Was Mesmer a charlatan? Are drones merely nothing to worry about? And is "shooting down" the drones only on side of the aisle? No, no it's not. Elliott was wrong, which is in and of itself remarkable. Why are traffic lights so much bigger than they look? Hav…
