redux — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 17:01:43 +0000

Do you believe in miracles? There are a lot of answers to that question, and most of them are extremely disturbing. Join us for a discussion of a Divine intervention that didn’t do much intervening, an immaculate conception that wasn’t too clean, and a holy ghost that isn’t particularly saintly.

Season 7 – Episode 11 • Dingus Donuts

redux — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 16:37:16 +0000

It’s time for Dead Air to solve the airport security problem. Turns out that all the security in the world can’t defeat a crotch bomber, determined to blow his junk across a 747. On a side note, why do none of us seem to have jobs? Also, Haiti still sucks.

Season 7 – Episode 09 • Newark is Nuts

Spam — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 05:00:50 +0000

While health care is our topic, we seem to get distracted pretty easily. In the midst of debating the current nature of the health care bill working its way through Congress, our extremely small cast gets sidetracked by the question of Weed’s pants, loving a blanket a little too much, and how easy it is to electrocute yourself for some jollies.

Season 7 – Episode 08 • Decattitude

Spam — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 15:15:18 +0000

Our decade in review episode focuses on the best, worst, and most indifferent of the past decade. The real question is not who the most important politician or celebrity was, or what the most important cultural milestone was. The real question is what kind of New Year’s glasses we’ll get now that we don’t have two zero’s in a row for the eyes.

Season 7 – Episode 07 • We Hate Your Guts

Spam — Fri, 25 Dec 2009 05:00:12 +0000

FestivusPoles.com has a handy Greivance Form that you can print out and use (scroll down to the bottom of the page to find the PDF).

Our annual Year in Review reveals that we were extremely disappointed with 2009. However, it is Festivus, and the airing of our grievances against the entire year (and each other) is entirely appropriate. Our traditional Festivus pole, unadorned, is there, and our fets of strength has to be seen to be believed. Too bad this is radio.

Season 7 – Episode 03 • Zee Is Not Dead

Spam — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 08:08:53 +0000

Zee is away, so Mo, Redux, and Spam will play. While our trademarked incoherence is in full effect, we do manage to discuss Dead Air Thanksgivings past, the Large Hadron Collider (much more impressive than the Small Hadron Collider), and hate on PETA’s anti-turkey industry commercials. Also, the Mo forgives the Nazis.

Season 7 – Episode 02 • Death Metal Band

Spam — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 06:09:06 +0000

As we slowly – very slowly – recover from Zee’s wedding, we ponder how a dessert can be cold and warm at he same time, or why we wanted a Crocodile Mile at the chuppah so badly. Also, tremendous amounts of broken glass.

Season 6 – Episode 35 • The Upfronts

Spam — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 06:03:58 +0000

As the new television season begins, we ponder the important questions: Could House be more awesome? Could Fringe be more ridiculous? Could Glee be more of a train wreck? Could The Colony be more . . . colonial? Join us for our preview of the upcoming season. Also, Jay Leno makes Kanye West cry!

Season 6 – Episode 31 • Voiding the Warranty

Spam — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 05:00:25 +0000

Join us as we discuss Obama’s conquering of news networks to shill for his health care plan, while Sweet Dee gazes longingly at our president in the moonlight. Are insurance companies really just money-making greed-machines? Yes. Yes, they are.

Season 6 – Episode 12 • A very Happy 2008 Shiva

Spam — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 23:19:46 +0000

Join us for our annual Year in Review episode, as we travel back in time through the year and discuss all the things that annoyed, entertained, and jumped the gun this year. Births, deaths, movies, events, politics, and all the world leaders that Zee assassinated over the year are on the table. Also, surprisingly, the Mo jumps the gun. On the year.
