Episodes: April, 2018

Andrew is back with with a broken tongue, but not too broken to offer the latest updates on curbside garbage pickup in the Roosevelt neighborhood of Seattle. He and Luke also discuss a man who was attacked by a coyote while checking on his chickens, and why Bob Dylan wants his whiskey to taste like a barn?

Friend of the show Nora McInerny (from Terrible, Thanks for Asking) stops by to talk Taylor Swift, Teenagers, and her late dad’s close personal relationship with his lord and savior, Chuck Norris.

Luke pours a cup of coffee, turns on the mic, and pours out his feelings about the recent loss of his friend.

Some Price Is Right heroics by Drew Carey fan the flames of Andrew’s game show addiction, Luke is amazed by a country’s flippant use of the word “haters”, and Phyllis “Fletch” Fletcher wants to know if Luke and Andrew would be friends in high school. 

Luke and Andrew discuss three (count ’em, THREE) Top Stories today: One involving a fajita heist, one involving a David Copperfield trick (“illusion”), and one involving the guy from the eHarmony ads maybe? But that’s just the tip of the #content iceberg today.

Andrew challenges Luke’s TV Theme Song knowledge, Family Feud style. They also talk about garbage anxiety, Tom Hanks, and The Sarcasm Generation.

Luke joins Andrew at the new studios of Walsh, Walsh and Doormat to discuss Starship Troopers, the problem with James Comey, and whether God can make a burrito so hot he can’t eat it. Seriously. 

Tesla honcho Elon Musk is encouraging his employees to walk out of meetings, and this appeals to Luke. Meanwhile, Andrew made some ice cubes that he’s excited about.

The New York Post reveals why so many “medium rare” steaks are being served under-cooked,  Family Feud has lost it’s dang mind, and the TBTL listeners catch a secret joke buried in a public radio show that nobody else noticed. 

Our friend (and colleague!) Nora McInerny of the Terrible, Thanks For Asking podcast joins us to talk about taking her show on the road this summer. And we finally listen to the Samson & Delilah rap song from the 1980s that Andrew and the Tens of listeners tracked down.

Luke and Andrew pay tribute to Art Bell, who passed away at age 72. And they discuss an actor who absolutely savaged the award ceremony he was presenting an award at. (We know that previous sentence ended in a preposition, and we don’t love it, either.) 

Luke has made an important decision regarding his new bitcoin. He and Andrew also check-in on some formal viral sensations to find out what they’re doing these days. Plus, the amazing story of people who bought free first class tickets for live, only to have them taken away by an evil airline. And it’s Friday, so we have some Music For Your Weekend!

Luke just bought a bitcoin (or part of one, anyway), so he and Andrew bone-up on their crypto-currency knowledge. Plus, the world’s most famous Donkey Kong player is stripped of his titles. 

Andrew wakes up to find himself in a Ramona Quimby/Woody Woodpecker situation. Luke has a heartwarming, inspirational story from the NBA. And we learn that anyone named Petey is by definition ready to party.

One of the country’s oldest candy companies may be shutting down, so now people are stocking-up on horrible, chalky candy. Luke and Andrew discuss this, and a guy who was hospitalized over a hot pepper incident. 

Andrew and Luke explore the very strange thing that happened during last week’s “Hey Dummies” video. Plus, you probably won’t have to sign your credit card receipts much longer, and Andrew holds a seminar on proper compact disc maintenance. 

TBTL Friendo Lindy West swings by the offices of Walsh, Walsh and Doormat to talk to Luke and Andrew about eagle attacks, celebrity flip-phones, and candy bars. Mostly we talk about candy bars.  

It took 18 years for a fancy Canadian hotel to forgive a man who created chaos with a suitcase full of pepperoni. Luke and Andrew discuss that, and they make a salad-related bet.
