Episode 13: Houston May Be Ugly, But…

It’s National Camera Day and National Waffle Iron Day. Nhat’s apartment complex catches on fire the last night his brother and sister were staying at his place. So this wasn’t actually explained in the podcast, but the title of this one stems from the time right after the fire was contained.. His brother remarks, “Houston may be ugly, but we don’t have shit like that happening….”

Yes, because buildings just spontaneously burst into flames every other day here.  It was just an absurd statement from my brother, who, with his girlfriend, are always trying to bring Colorado down a notch or two because they’re stuck in Houston.  We’re not entirely sure why.  We also talk about whiny celebrities, being offensive to drum up tweets and attention in general and Nhat believes that the Ewok language may have had its roots in the Cambodian language.

We have more bands for our “Who’s Shittier?” segment and there’s some real crap this week.  We discuss how we feel obligated to maintain appearances online, even though we don’t really need to.

 Intro song of the week:

“Doc Holliday” – Volbeat

“The Motherload” – Mastodon

Episode 12: Keep On Livin’ Ya Know

We get a little serious for the first part of this podcast and talk about mental illness in the family, deadbeat friends and just life in general. Then we go over the pros and cons of working in corporate America and what to expect if you’re thinking of “dwelving” (as Tony would say) into that world. Nhat makes a bet with Tony that we’ll eventually get a tweet from a listener before the 20th episode and winner buys lunch.

Intro song of the week:

“Emotional Blackmail” – Angkor Wat
Outro song of the week:
“A Lesson In Violence” – Exodus

Episode 11: Hulking Out And Going Green

Tony had quite the eventful time this past weekend, what with volunteering at the Denver Comic Con and all and then meeting his childhood hero, Lou Ferrigno… Little did he know, that wouldn’t be all the excitement he’d have, but not in any way he would have ever expected. Tune in to find out what happens.

Intro song of the week:

“Victory” – Dark Lunacy

“As The Pages Burn” – Arch Enemy

Episode 10: Happy Upsy Daisy Best Friends Day

It’s June 8, 2014 and it’s also National Best Friend Day and National Upsy Daisy Day. Nhat is flattered that Tony is spending Best Friend’s Day with him and Tony wants to throw up in his mouth. We both lament that we wish we had known earlier that we were supposed to be more positive for National Upsy Daisy Day. We play some terrible music to try and determine which one of them was the top of the shit heap. The band Harlequin wins by a long shot with their turd, Heaven (Dial 999).  Listen to it HERE, if you dare. Nhat gives up on relationships in general because he has better things to do. Corporate creeps are brought up, Tony’s working (and defending the lives of artists) at the Denver Comic Con, and we talk about weird murder-y people in general.

We started our podcast with Death Angel’s “Ultra-Violence,” so we figured it was fitting to have another Death Angel song on our 10th podcast.. one that we both agree “fucking rocks”… “Discontinued,” from their best album, Act III.

Intro song of the week:

“Bleed” – Meshuggah

Outro song of the week:

“Discontinued” – Death Angel
