Ep. #158 - Breaking the Snork Wall

• Intro - Don't worry, our complete lack of comic book news and/or reviews means very little. You still get our specialty: weird references, filthy jokes, a hint of everlasting sadness, and jokes about our very respectful and wonderful sponsor DCBS, who give you at least 40% off everything on their website. If you're not bald, go to their store in Fort Wayne, Indiana (or if you are bald).

• Prompts & Circumstance - What was the weirdest cartoon we loved as kids? Furries and yiffing, and whether that is insanely reductive? What stories will be/are the most iconic for certain mainstream comic characters? How are we still talking about The Dark Knight rises film? Why does Austin hate mockumentaries so passionately? Darren Arronofsky's ouvre.

Ep. #157 - Banana [REDACTED]

• Intro - It's hard to intro things, sometimes. It's Weird For Everyone '98. Video games, some kind of discussion about work, and then finally we discuss our sponsors DCBS, who give you at least 40% off everything on their website. You love having money and being able to buy comics with it, so go!

• Read 'Em and Weep - Marvel Knights: X-Men #1 by Brahm Revel and Christiane Peter; and Cataclysm: Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man by Brian Michael Bendis and David Marquez

• You Should Read This - Austin discusses Nimona by Noelle Stevenson; David chooses Boxers and Saints by Gene Luen Yang.

• Prompts & Circumstance - After a question about roleplaying and music, depression is discussed again. And again. But in a cathartic way? You tell us.

Ep. #156 - Why I Quit Skateboarding

• Intro - 11.12.13 is a date that is cuh-raaazy, and then we make fun of all humanity, pretty much. We review some comics then talk about Anne Rice (obviously). Our sponsors DCBS want to give you at least 40% off everything on their website. Yeah. So maybe go check that out.

• Read 'Em and Weep - Umbral #1 by Antony Johnston and Christopher Mitten; Manifest Destiny #1 by Chris Dingess and Matthew Roberts; a fan comic called Batman: The Deal by Gerardo Preciado and Daniel Bayliss.

• Prompts and Circumstance - Lengthy questions and arguments about misinterpreting concepts; vampire hair; young addictions; skateboards; failure.

Ep. #155 - 

• Intro - We fail to mention that because our sound board fried itself, this episode was late. That's why, though. Thanks to our sponsors DCBS who are literally solely responsible for allowing us to buy a new board on incredibly short notice. Go buy your comics from them to tell them thank you from us.

• Topic Thunder - Thor 2 taught us a lot of things about gravity, sacrifice, and how the word "Josh" means "no" in Dark Elf language. Then we talk about some awful stuff happening in comics now, but are sure to say "allegedly" a lot. We ain't gonna' be litigated.

• Confessions - David watches a film everyone was sure would be horrible, and finds out it maybe isn't awful? Austin still needs to double check this. Then we discuss movies, and how pretty much every movie in the 80s was filled with hatred and homophobia, but for laughs!
