Thursday Oct 03, 2024

Cap and Ryan are letting the Devil take the wheel for all of October. NOTE: We're not literally consorting with any demonic forces. It's October 2024, and polls are saying it's a coin toss whether Ted Cruz gets to preside over my witch trial... so to be clear, it's just a Halloween goof. But that goof is going to transition us from the Oktoberfest Devil's Wheel into the first half of an Actual Play Table Top Roleplaying Game single shot session of Absurdia with its creator Quinn Modjeski and special guest player Jess Sparks.

The ReTruth About Cats and Dogs

Thursday Sep 19, 2024

Ryan and Cap talk about the scientific awards nobody puts on their CV before opining on the state of global drag.

Don't panic. But if you do feel a sense of panic, that's okay. We're just primates, and evolution hasn't caught up to the demands of civilization. Cut yourself some slack.

The Butt Plug Railgun

Tuesday Feb 20, 2024

Tuesday Feb 20, 2024

Ryan takes to the streets with Cap to patrol the internet in search of questions and topics in need of vigilante illumination. Ryan provides an update on the state of the show, before they dive into the hows and whens of doing the gritty at a funeral, taking breastmilk baths, before ruling on whether there is a connection between Impossible Meat and Planned Parenthood. TW: This episode does feature discussion of abortion and cannibalism, but that's the price of exploring the MAGA web I guess. Finally, Cap dives into whether a viral image on the internet faithfully recounts an occurrence of a butt plug railgun.
