    19.3 MB / 28 min. Like tainted meat, everything about this show is just a little off, namely my state of mind. A 69 cent cornbread dinner, worst kitchen experience, Rolf Bernischke, three of my top 10 game shows of all time. Intro compliments of Seth, Third Son of Albert, from the WHYME podcast.

    12.6 MB / 18 min. Milk: a fluid secreted by the mammary glands of females for the nourishment of their young. Bilk: to cheat out of something valuable. Unedited and direct to you the SAME DAY, from the Steve Dupont Corporation! Hopefully this is listenable because, ooh Jesus, oooh God, I’m hungover as hell. You know it’s bad when you need multiple Os in oh.

    18.1 MB / 26 min. Deconstructing Kerouac, the third leg theory, Platoon, the Matrix and Life of Brian, bells and alarms in your head, putting things in places they are not, the role of planets in the solar system, yada yada.

    16.2 MB / 23 min. In an ambitious episode, we trace the existence of the universe from negative infinity to infinity. Well, not really. But we DO trace the history of civilization from -4241 to about 1874, and not much happens.

    27.4 MB / 40 min. Get it? Like religious tracts? See, in this episode I walk down some train tracks and talk about religion, so it’s like a play on words. Heaven, hell, sinners, saints and a new term I learned from an evangelical talk show: Moral Absolutism. All aboard! The Obtuse Angle is leaving the station!

    16.2 MB / 23 min. Well, I suppose quality is trending up again, but not by much. Damning God for His own sake, Clown shoes, buckets, space duty (doody), fellatio-based insults, my pro wrestling alter-ego and much, much -- no, actually, that's about it. Side note: I didn’t purchase the Michelob Ultra nor do I endorse it in any way. Oh, and I know it was Michael Douglas in Falling Down, not Kirk or Kurt Douglas.

    14.3 MB / 21 min. Thus begins the period of total and utter incoherence. Sodomy, poultry tenderization, guest appearances on Alf, good news and bad news, neither of which will be revealed, and neither of which I remember. Buckle up, folks, because this will continue for several shows to come. If it’s any consolation, I pity you.

    14.8 MB / 21 min. What starts out as a wild ride over choppy mental waters turns into a rather grounded clinic in phone mismanagement. Other topics include slippery slopes and Listener Lore, a new segment proposed but never fully explained. Plus, a guest appearance by Indian Nelly!

    8.4 MB / 18 min. I actually call them metaphorical pulpits in the podcast, but proverbial keeps the alliteration theme going, which I agree is getting ridiculous by the way. In other news, the Power Rangers are meaningless eunuchs and Africa is really really big.

Anyhoo, I pace around and wonder what would happen if a million-billion microscopic sonic booms occured in your brain, plus some prattle about pimping podcasters and a special contest that involves Gary Busey!
