January, baby! The best month of the year. What we do in these first 31 days sets the tone for the rest of the other … I want to say 400? Calendars are dumb.
And this month our writers set the tone by nerding out, upsetting you, and killing your imaginary friend for $200. Isn’t that neat? Check it out:
Merritt K opened it up by nerding out about Little Shop, and Lydia Bugg responded by upsetting us with Celebrity Bear Hunt. If you don’t know what that is, there is zero percent you will be able to guess before clicking. Continuing on the TV train, Alex Schmidt stopped by to upset us with a show that squandered every opportunity it had. I’m talking about The Pitts. Dennard Dayle, possibly one of the only Hot Dog writers that actually reads books, nerded out about… well it says Zodiac Faces and really there is no way to describe the horrors in that link. Just click it, you’ll see.
And Brockway’s book finally came out! Haha sucker that wasn’t the link to his article. This one is though, you can click here to see him reflect on his final days on the outside before he goes to jail forever. And it’s all your fault.
Oh, also they put out a 1900HotDog album. I don’t know who they is, maybe it was Lydia?
Anyway, onto the podcasts:

Dogg Zzone 9000 – Episode 262, Automan with Zak Koonce

Trapper is back and bigger than ever! Kind of. Well not really, not at all. It’s complicated. I drew him as a skull faced apparition that throws jars of piss. Neat!

THRILL as the AIMS team bothers a dying old man! We bid farewell to Trapper as well as the single rusty thumbtack that held the premise of MOUNTAIN MONSTERS together on this week’s episode of BIGFEETS!

BIGFEETS – Episode 63, The Secret of the Red Shed
Come listen to us break down this episode of Mountain Monsters, which is about Huckleberry erotically showering for a psychic bigfoot. No, that’s really what the episode is about. Yes, the whole hour. What use are jokes in the face of that?
