Last week, Brian Murphy revealed his ability to help the Cleveland Browns win football games simply by being in the stands during their games. This week, he delves further into his recent trip to Cleveland and reveals why he and his friends are remembered in a particular Cleveland sports bar, even though they only go there once a year.
We don’t want to give too much away, but it has to do with the way Brian tortures his unwitting wingman Kurt, who ends up becoming an endless source of amusement for Brian and the other bar patrons.
How does Brian torture Kurt? How will the Hollywood writers’ strike affect your favorite shows? And why does People magazine refuse to recognize Joel’s sexiness? The answers to these questions and more lie within this week’s show.
Hey everyone, this is Joel. First of all, I’d like to apologize for all of the static on my end on this week’s show. I think the problem lies with the program we’ve been using to record our Skype calls (we just can’t win with this whole Skype thing). We will be trying a new program next week and hopefully the show will be back to sounding normal.
Thank you for your patience. I promise we will get this show sounding right one of these days.
If you’ve listened to the show, you heard us both rave about “Violin” by Paul Dateh. If you like the song as much as we do, you’ll probably enjoy the video …
Brian and Joel Murphy have always believed that being drug free is the way to be. Growing up in the 80s, they were subjected to countless after-school PSAs and “very-special” episodes of their favorite sitcoms (including the “I’m So Excited” episode of Saved by the Bell) and they quickly learned that drugs were for losers.
So this week, they are doing their part to warn today’s youth about the dangers of drugs, specifically a new drug called Leroy Jenkems that is all the rage in today’s schools. The Murphy brothers explain what Jenkems is and why you should never use it in a “very special” edition of Hobo Radio.
How is Leroy Jenkems made? Does Brian have the ability to control the outcome of Cleveland Brown games? And did our lord and savior pull a groin muscle? The answers to these questions and more lie within this week’s show.
Week 34 Spotlight: Sometimes an onion ring is just an onion ring.
A once popular show returned from a long hiatus with a few lackluster episodes that left a bad taste in its fans’ mouths. Then, months after everyone had forgotten all about the show, suddenly it was back in the spotlight and the creator was once again pissing off his fanbase.
… No, we’re not talking about Hobo Radio. The show referenced above is The Sopranos, whose creator, David Chase, just released a book berating fans for getting so obsessed with the season finale, while still only offering vague clues as to what the bizarre ending meant. Needless to say, this makes Joel Murphy angry - angry enough to bring back Hobo Radio just so he and Brian could yell at the pretentious douchebag who created The Sopranos.
What do the Murphy brothers really think of David Chase? What is their solution to stopping the dominance of Tom Brady and the New England Patriots? Can Brian now outrun Forrest Gump? The answers to these questions and more can be found in this week’s show.
Last week, Hobo Radio made it’s triumphant return to The Podcast Network. However, many fans feared that this reunion show was a one time deal and that the Murphy brothers would once again, as Mike Tyson would say, “fade into Bolivian.”
But this week, they prove all of the doubters wrong by returning with another all new podcast. While it is still unclear what has motivated the Murphys to return to the airwaves, rumor has it that some encouraging words by Lance Armstrong in a hotel bar really put things into perspective for them.
Does Lance Armstrong really rule Brian’s life? What could possibly make Joel hate Wal-mart more than he already did? And what did Brian do to end up on CNN? The answers to these questions and more can be found in this week’s show.
On February 22, due to technical difficulties, Hobo Radio went off the air.
Most loyal listeners presumed Brian and Joel had “pulled a Bubby” and would never be heard from again. But this week, they make their triumphant return.
Is the magic still there? What were the real reasons for their hiatus? And what, exactly, is a RoboTron 4000? The answers to these questions and more lie within this week’s Hobo Radio podcast.
I’m sure you have all been wondering what’s going on with the Hobo Radio podcast. I know it seems like we’ve “pulled a Bubby” and stopped doing the show altogether, but that isn’t the case.
Since I moved to Boston, we have been having some audio problems and the sound quality just hasn’t been up to our normal standards. So, for now, we are on hiatus while we try to work out the kinks, but hopefully we will be back on the air soon.
Many things have changed since the last Hobo Radio podcast. The world lost Anna Nicole Smith. Britney Spears lost her hair. And Brian Murphy lost his damn mind.
That’s right, Murphy has snapped - it seems he’s actually happy to be married. The man who has cautioned others about walking down that aisle and who has claimed he’s “already dead” is now saying that he’s lucky to be married.
What caused this shocking turn of events? Why did Joel Murphy make his girlfriend push his car? And what big music news is reported first on their show? These answers and more are found in this week’s edition of Hobo Radio.
Hobo Radio is a weekly podcast by the creator of HoboTrashcan Joel Murphy and sports columnist Brian Murphy. Topics will cover everything from pop culture to sports while we attempt to answer such vital questions as who would win in a death match - Oprah or Vince McMahon? From time to time we'll share some of the audio from our celebrity interviews and we'll even spotlight some music you should be listening to.
