    The three hosts play an improv game to wrap up the show. The Returns Department is a game where Trisha is returning an item to Josiah but he doesn't know what that item is and has to guess. Our gracious co-host Doug comes up with the item that Trisha will be returning.

    OPEN MIC

    Doug and Josiah share their opening jokes that they will use at the open mic that is happening right after they recorded this episode. Will they make it to the open mic in time? Tune in next week to find out!

  • COMEDY

    Josiah James, Ryan Rossell and Doug McHarris open Season 2 with discussing a Jim Gaffigan concert that Doug recently attended. Later on they play some clips from Sacha Baron Cohen's new show, Who Is America and discuss. Afterwards, Josiah shares a brand new open mic performance from earlier in the summer. Doug and Josiah tell a story about how they first met at the worst gig ever in Springfield, New Jersey.

    PAINT OR PUSSY

    The hosts play a brand new game called Paint or Pussy. Josiah will announce a name and the other hosts have to decide if it is the name of a paint color or the name of a feminine hygiene product.

    IMPROV

    The hosts close the show with two games of New Choice. We will try to close every show of this season with some sort of improvisational game, so we'll see how that goes.

  • FROM THE ARCHIVES

    We recorded this episode in November, 2016 but never published it. Right before Thanksgiving and just after the election we got together and recorded a 3 hour session. A lot of our conversation dealt with Trump and the election and aftermath.

    Although still relevant, I've cut all the Trump stuff out since it's a bit dated and I'm tired of hearing about Trump everyday. What is left is just over an hour of our conversation which features a hilarious story by Josiah James about his trip to Saginaw, Michigan.

    comedy

    Josiah has a funny story about his trip to Saginaw Michigan where he was working on-site at a hotel that eerily resembled The Overlook Hotel from Stanley Kubrick's The Shining. Josiah and Ryan listen to Dave Chappelle's opening monologue from November, 2016 when he hosted SNL. It was Dave's return to standup after being away for over a decade.

    entertainment

    Ryan talks about a look book that he was requested to put together for a tv show his pitching to Hollywood. Josiah helps Ryan with the design and presentation in hopes that Hollywood gives it a pass.

    technology

    What's with the NOTE 7? This device is so lethal you can't even bring it to airports. Josiah talks about this and a girl he saw on the plane that he wished he was fortunate enough to sit next to.

    GOOD HEADLINES

    Josiah and Ryan close the show with Good Headlines.

  • COMEDY

    It's open mic week! Josiah James and Ryan Rossell share their open mic performances from earlier in the week. Josiah resurfaces some older material for his set and Ryan opens with a hilarious new bit about stage time, before crashing and burning with a Halloween bit (his words, not mine).

    We were graced by a very unusual stand-up performance by a local hack comedian that went up on stage wearing a Peter Pan leotard. We play a bit of the weirdest set ever and add our colorful commentary.

    We also discuss the Barry Crimmins stand-up special 'Whatever Threatens You' that was released earlier in the month over on Louis C.K.'s website. We review the hour special and play a few clips from Barry's performance.

    ENTERTAINMENT

    What do NFL players and dildo's have in common? They're both better when they're black. We discuss the white dildo that was thrown onto the field during the Bills vs. Patriots game.

    Josiah and Ryan discuss two very powerful short films that came out recently on Vimeo. The first is The Present, by Jacob Frey. The second one they discuss is Borrowed Time, a very profound and unusual animated short by some Pixar folks.

    Halloween season has just left us and Josiah and Ryan discuss the movie Hush, which is available on Netflix. This movie has maintained a 100% rating over on Rotten Tomatoes, and after watching it, it's evident why it is so liked.

    Good Headlines are back this week and all of the hosts take turns reading some fake headlines.

    CLOSER

    Ryan closes the show with a classic joke about a slutty grandma...my favorite kind.
