Episode 384 – Comedy is Hard
This week, we discuss “Joker” director Todd Phillips and his statements that he doesn’t want to make comedy any more because of “PC Culture.” As three comedians who happen to do some offensive material, we are critical of his statements because Comedy isn’t even supposed to be easy. And if it makes it harder to […]

Episode 376 – Ronn’s Mom is Stupid
This week, we have one of our returning Renaissance Festival friends over to talk about his stupid mom. Not really, although it does come up. Ronn Bauman asks us to think about the new show William Shatner is hosting on the poorly named History channel, and how his mom just keeps believing really stupid things. It’s […]
Episode 375 – The Good Place
With season four about to drop, we finally do an episode about “The Good Place.” This comedy serious about the afterlife is about as good a show as you can find on TV right now and we talk about why. We do, of course, spoil the shit out of the first three seasons so if […]
