In spite of others’ efforts to the contrary, October just keeps happening! And so, too, do the guests (which are, yes, still of the special variety). The final guest before Halloween is none other than the founder of Four Phantoms, the groovy brewery in western Massachusetts that combines— you know what? You probably know all that by now. In that c…

Everything is exactly as originally planned in this final episode of March! And what exactly IS planned? Bugs.

An unprecedented SECOND consecutive week of very-nearly-SEO-friendly episode titles finds the boys examining… nouns, I guess?

An impromptu prompt leads to a rare example of an episode whose title actually reflects its content!

What’s that sound? I mean, other than the whole “podcast” thing? Oh ho, it’s yet another episode ABOUT sounds! Jake ventures into the Arkansas/Missouri woods in search of the Ozark Howler.

The saga continues, as your intrepid hosts continue not to venture outside of the American northeast!

Fantastical exploits of the 19th century lead the boys on a slog through what can be best described as “ultraviolet prose”. And an unintentional amount of bat people!

August continues to go around the world or whatever, all thanks to a purely arbitrary programming decision two years ago!

It’s this year’s first installment of August Around the World, and that means both alien and ghostly Thailand tales!

YELLOW. Talkin’ ’bout a weird little…
