In what is once again either the ultimate in fan service or laziness, this week Joel Murphy and Lars invite another fan into the studio and let her control the show. Listener Jane Wynn has planned out the show from top to bottom – deciding everything the dynamic duo talks about and even the song at the end.
Wynn attempts to class up the joint, bringing in tea cups for the group to drink beer out of and sharing rules for proper dating etiquette. Of course, it doesn’t take long before the whole thing falls apart and Jane is using words that would make a sailor blush.
Did Jane’s car really break down? Should you take a girl to dinner and a movie on a date? Why is Lars like an adorable puppy? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.
Joel Murphy and Lars don’t have much to look forward to in their lives, but the one day every year that is marked on their calenders with smiley faces is September 19 – International Talk Like a Pirate Day. Not only is it a day that they get to call up their friends and shout “Arrrrrrrrrrrrr!” but it is also an excuse for them to call the world’s most lovable pirate, Mark “Cap’n Slappy” Summers.
Cap’n Slappy, along with his friend Ol’ Chumbucket, created International Talk Like a Pirate Day. So this week, the boys bring Slappy on the show for the fourth straight year to find out how he will be celebrating. They also follow up on his Pirate Day shenanigans from last year and find out what he has been up to since his last visit.
Why is Cap’n Slappy so awesome? What happens when a pirate, a Scotsman and an Irishman walk into a bar? Can Slappy get the dynamic duo to sing? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s show.
It’s that time of year again. The time of giant turkey legs, saucy wenches and drunken jousting. It’s the time of Renaissance Festivals, a place where nerds can dress up in costumes and have an old fashioned good time.
This week Joel Murphy and Lars share their Renn Fest experiences (including how much more fun the festivities are when are old enough to drink). They also discuss Eddie Murphy’s chances of being a funny Oscar host, Nike’s plans to release the shoes from Back to the Future II and Sean Bean’s continued awesomeness.
Can Eddie Murphy channel his 1980s greatness? What is the saddest thing Joel heard at the Renn Fest? When will we finally get hoverboards? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.
In a move that would make Urban Dictionary proud, Joel Murphy and Lars coin a new term on this week’s show: “Pulling a Lars.” While you have to listen to the show to find out what exactly “pulling a Lars” entails, needless to say, it’s not something you should aspire to.
In addition to this new term, the dynamic duo also breaks down The Hollywood Reporter’s list of the 10 biggest flops of the summer, which includes a few surprise picks (and one movie no one has ever heard of). They also play a round of the classic game: “Who would you do?”
How does one pull a Lars? What was the biggest flop of the summer? Would Lars rather sleep with modern day Carrie Fisher or Harrison Ford circa Star Wars? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.
