Life is Bullshit

Ep61: Life is Backshit

brinker.mark@gmail.com (Mark, Henry, Juan, Bethany) — Tue, 05 Jul 2011 16:51:20 PDT

A reunion episode with the whole gang, a bunch of whom you probably forgot were ever on the podcast, if you're still out there listening at all. Hopefully it won't be so long between episodes again, but hoping only counts in hockey and hand grenades, or something.

Mark, Henry, and Erika ramble on about some such nonsense about Kanye West's new teeth, their own teeth, and kids turning into cartoons. Juan and Bethany haven't been on the podcast in a while, but they are still around, and will be back soon!

ALSO
in an effort to broaden our listenership, this episode is also available on YouTube, which, as you all know, can be embedded on Facebook pages and other websites (you'd think independent audio files could be too, but apparently we haven't reached that level of technology.) Anyway, here's about 15 minutes worth of what you'd get normally, because that's the longest that can go on Youtube. Embed away! Tell everybody, kids!

Ep51: Erika pt2: Bear Stepfather: The Series

brinker.mark@gmail.com (Mark, Henry, Juan, Bethany) — Sat, 18 Dec 2010 18:20:46 PST

The continuation of an earlier episode (because the recording was such a comedy goldmine!) finds the crew discussing bivouacs, super heroes, and a little bit more on pterodactyl porn. But the bulk of the discussion centers on beleaguered German polar bear Knut, and whether he is the cutest thing in existence, or just the cutest bear in existence.

Knut, der IST ein kuschelbar

And the line "I'm your new foster father," is of course from the movie About Schmidt, but the version Mark and Henry are quoting comes by way of this classic gem:

Ep50:Mark's Drunk

brinker.mark@gmail.com (Mark, Henry, Juan, Bethany) — Tue, 30 Nov 2010 15:26:53 PST

The title pretty much says it all. This episode is out of order, because Mark was drunk enough to have forgotten that he recorded it altogether. Mark was also fairly drunk when he edited this episode, and when he wrote this thing you're reading right now. The point is he can't really remember what happened this episode, but it might've been kind of funny.

The one thing is it takes place before Henry went on his first date with the girl he's now been on several more dates with, and has referred to it on an earlier episode.

The name of the game this episode is intoxicants. Henry had a bad experience with a batch of tiny brownies, and Mark does whip-its in the back of the coffee shop, whenever he’s not beating it, that is. Then we write a review of our own podcast, with disastrous consequences! Other topics include: ShoutOuts and Rejects! and What god would you be? Also: Bethany Returns!

Ep47: I Am Lunchables!

brinker.mark@gmail.com (Mark, Henry, Juan, Bethany) — Mon, 08 Nov 2010 17:31:57 PST

If you google "Chinstrap" with SafeSearch ON

The first thing to know is that the title has almost nothing to do with the episode. Someone says it at one point in the episode. But all the other episode titles slept through their alarms this morning, and I Am Lunchables was the only one that showed up.

Mark and Henry argue about Paranormal Activity, and then Mark tries to get Henry to deliver some important documents. Henry ponders a life decision. Juan coins a term for the sandwich sensation that's sweeping the nation.
