On this day of high adventure, the Dogg Zzone 9000 welcomes our own Lydia Bugg to discuss 1982’s Conan the Barbarian! Hers is a tale of discovery as it was the first time she’d seen it, as opposed to Seanbaby and Brockway who have been thinking about Conan the Barbarian several times a day for 39 years.
Listen here, or wherever there are fleet horses at your feet and falcons at your wrist! And for 🌠champions or higher, the bonus podcast features Liddy running her first book game where Sean and Robert romance each other to the death. Let Crom witness us as we solve the Riddle of Steel and have a camel-punching good time doing it!
Happy Podcasting Day palookas, palookettes, and non-binary palookos alike! It’s Golden Age Comic Week! A whole week full of hardboiled detectives and hard-sockin’ soldiers, selfish dames, heroic white men, and evil every other race.
For this week’s podcast we welcomed K Thor Jensen, because his name is Thor — and we found out he knows a lot about comics, too! Follow his excellent Twitter for insight into comic books, writing, the world, and what it’s like be named Thor when everybody else is named stupid shit like Jeff.
We’re not just talkin’ any Golden Age Comics, we’re talking comics that only existed in the Golden Age — we’re talking Crime Comics! Back when they wrote whole comic books about the general concept of crime. Not crime-fighters, just crime! Crime was the main character. Sometimes the stories were true, sometimes they were “true,” and mostly they were just total horse-hockey, because it was a simpler time when it was too hard to check on a lie so nobody ever did it.
Seanbaby takes us through each of the evolving eras of crime comics, all the way up to their brutal murder. It’s gonna take all our detective prowess to crack that case — luckily Seanbaby bought a hat, Brockway already had whiskey, and K Thor Jensen is a Thor!
Subscribe to us and review the podcast. That’s what I’m saying. I’m cutely saying that but I still need you to actually do it.
Also don’t be racist, don’t be sexist, and probably don’t buy a knit mask and a gun and prowl the streets as The Kestrel or some shit. But that one’s less my business.
The rules are simple: Brockway and actual-Jeopardy!-champ Schmitty face off in a game of Jeopardy! reprogrammed by Seanbaby in the Weiner 2600, only they’re not facing off, many of the rules have been changed, and the stakes could spell doom for all of us. It’s not simple at all! Listen here, or wherever you fart-sound, arooga your earholes, ba-boing sliiiiide whistle!
After the show, Patreon hot dog champions and better can listen to the bonus podcast featuring Seanbaby and Alex really struggling with an action-packed episode of That Guy From Airwolf. It’s all games today, so if you like fun: subscribe and review! Slide whistle us on Fart Sound!
The early 20th century was a golden age for liars, and Charles Fitzgerald was probably their king. At least he’d tell you he was. And you’d believe him! There was no other choice!
I say “probably” because there are some badass verifiable truths in his story, along with a lot of awesome verifiable untruths, and Charles Fitzgerald built himself a Sky Mansion in the spaces in between.
Seanbaby already wrote a whole article on the man too tough to die on Earth, so it took the moon to kill him. But that wasn’t enough Charles Fitzgerald for 1900đźŚ!
We had to bring author and futurist Jason Pargin on to discuss the best liar any of us ever heard of, and the era he lived in: A better time when you could tell a reporter you invented several new types of airplane and he would publish that fact without asking you a single question about it.
As always, remember to subscribe to the podcast wherever you do that, and leave us a review — I’m partial to PodPeople these days, I like the way all of their reviews are just screaming and pointing. Do that. Scream and point for us, it’s the only way to help the site!
In 1976, Rudy Ray Moore made the perfect film. He took everything he learned from Dolemite, forgot it, added tits, refused to do anything that wasn’t fun, doubled the tits, and the result was a kung fu art film about a male prostitute superhero called The Human Tornado. It rules.
We discuss its intentional successes and its accidental successes with our own Lydia Bugg, who had never seen it until the night before recording this. She loved it! Who wouldn’t!? Listen to it here or wherever you like to Dogg Zzone. Also, as you know, rattlesnakes have bit us and crawled off and died, and it helps our podcast if you motherfucking like and subscribe.
Because there’s no wrong way to discuss The Human Tornado, Seanbaby designed an Action Question Quiz to test Robert and Liddy’s Human Tornado quote quotient. It is fun and it’s fierce because we are cool and we’re steady, and if you’d like to play the home version, fucking scroll down already.
This Podcasting Day we’re tackling a meme a month out of date because we’re former Cracked employees and some habits die hard. We invited Katie Goldin, the host of Creature Feature and all around animal lover to ask her: Which animals could you kill in a fight?
She should have spat in our eyes and dove out a window, but instead she stayed and had wonderful insights on the ancient art of Man vs. Animal kumite. Here’s the poll that started it all, and it’s hard to tell who’s crazier: The 28% of people who think a rat could knock them out, or the 6% who think they could wrestle a grizzly bear into submission.
Katie brings up a few excellent points during this podcast. Like just how big a wolf truly is, especially when compared to the Husky, which is Wolf Lite.
Even their skulls are on a whole other level:
Here’s the eagle Katie thinks could take down a man, even though Brockway thinks it looks like a rich middle school bully he used to know.
And finally here’s the spider that Sean barely defeated in hand to hand combat, and only then after it crippled his best friend.
Your eyes have been programmed to glaze over this part, but we would love it if you subscribed wherever you get podcasts. And we could seriously use some reviews here if you have the time. Just be sure to mention you’re in the 6% club and they’ll give you top priority.
