Episodes: June, 2017

Luke witnesses some Skyjinx first hand and almost Skyjinxes himself. Andrew may be ready for the Shark Tank stage. And people SERIOUSLY need to stop bungee jumping. Plus, another Song of the Summer nominee is debuted in Music For Your Weekend!

Luke checks in from Philadelphia, the land of cheese-steaks, community pools, and sometimes-depressing shoe stores. Fortunately, his mom, Susie, is an expert on all of those things, so the guys call her up. Plus, was Andrew at the center of a major conspiracy involving unicorns, waterfalls, and The Children of Ohio as a kid?

Luke needs help being a “fictional dude.” Andrew remembers the time someone tried to force him to quit TBTL. An IKEA bowl accidentally sets grapes on fire. And TBTL offers an examination of “rheumy” vs “rummy.”

Luke and Andrew get a visit from a large talking bunny, and for once, it’s not an alcohol-induced hallucination. Plus, Luke is anxious about an upcoming BBQ with relatives he’s never met, and Andrew has some Hot Takes on Sensible Toy Crossbow Ownership.

Luke spends the weekend eating honeycombs and sleep medication. Andrew tries to grill his anxieties away at a BBQ. An airline pilot tells his passengers to start praying when they run into trouble. And a listener has a run-in with a ghost, maybe.

A severed toe is returned in the Yukon. A rich guy is creating a dangerous game. Luke’s got bad allergies. And Andrew has a list of local pollen counts.

A Yale administrator is fired over things she wrote on Yelp, which makes Andrew take another look at his submissions to the site. Plus, a documentary has Luke looking back on his family’s Amway-selling days. And a listener sends in an email that…you know what? Let’s just not talk about that.

Luke and Carey head over to the law offices of Walsh, Walsh and Doormat to share ghost stories and discuss a terrifying bug that makes people allergic to red meat. Also, Luke has a new audio drop that he insists on using, no matter how many times Andrew threatens to quit the show.

Luke dazzles us with some details about the creation of Spinal Tap and why the brilliant people behind the film only earned tens of dollars. Plus, what exactly does the TBTL Handbook say about swearing and music on this podcast? And a listener has a pest problem that’s really more of a relationship issue.

This show has it all: A TBTL Summer announcement, breaking news about our Senior Bidet Correspondent, a mystery solved by a listener, one of Luke’s predictions coming true, and a Cleveland Browns-related tangent. (Sorry about that last one.)

TBTL freindo Rachel Belle swings by to talk food, mistaken identity, and why her dad has suddenly started quoting Napoleon Dynamite.

Luke tries to listen in on his daughter’s college radio station, only to get a Martha-Shaped surprise. Plus, a segment on The Beatles exposes Andrew’s early love of Phil Collins.

Things get a little weird (and oddly rappy) on this Wednesday (or possibly Tuesday?) edition of TBTL. Luke and Andrew break down some local radio ads, get the backstory on the fastest man in baseball promotions, and answer the age-old question: How much are those little fast food signs we see on the highway?

Luke and Andrew try to adjust to their new lives as ex-road dogs. They discuss Andrew’s (not so?) harrowing airport adventure, a chicken sandwich that will be launched to the edge of space, and a man who is determined to bring pastrami sandwiches to Tuscany, despite all odds.

Luke and Andrew bring their epic journey to an end with a live show at Stubb’s Barbecue in Austin, Texas, with amazing musical guest Shakey Graves!

Luke and Andrew check-in from the Ramble In trailer park in beautiful Marfa, Texas, where Luke is making plans to start a new life. Andrew tries to prepare him by teaching him Texas slang. And, of course, a roadtrip version of Music For Your Weekend!

Day 4 of the TBTL-a-Thon finds Luke and Andrew in a trailer park in Albuquerque, New Mexico, celebrating a minor miracle and learning to be careful which bottled water to drink.

Luke and Andrew made it to Las Vegas. They join the show from a dangerously hot RV on the outskirts of town to talk about their seedy adventures and whether ASMR is a productive way to ask people to donate to the TBTL-a-Thon.
