The Complete Disaster Podcast
(Part 4)
It's been a very injurious week in football. Entire teams are being decimated. Interviewees are becoming casualties before they even pick up a mic. What's going on? We don't know, but we got a bye week so we're still 5-0, so we don't care. And surely, nothing bad could possibly happen between now and February.
(Part 3)
Complaining about kids never wanting to talk on the phone is out. The newest complaint is robots always wanting to talk on the phone. You'd think a doctor would want to hear from their patient directly. You'd also think you'd go see Paul Mecurio at the House of Comedy this Friday and Saturday. No robots involved.
(Part 2)
DWTS had some drama the other day involving a lift. Or was it a lift? Depends on which definition you use. Choose the right one, because you might end up getting the Fresh Prince treatment. And if none of this makes any sense to you at all, you're far from alone.
(Part 1)
The Disney Worlds Collide tour came to town. Tweens and their mothers rejoiced. For everyone else, there's foot-related content online. And by "everyone else" I mean hopefully an extremely small number of people.
Tim, famous for being Mary Mack's husband, moved up north because Facebook was too confusing. Or something like that, anyway. Why is he all the way back down here? Because he's at Acme, naturally. And you should be grateful, because after all, he's the funniest person in Minnesota. He's certified and everything.
Hot off the tails of the Mortal Kombat movie revival, here comes Street Fighter. Is it as good? After all, they're both just movies about people beating each other up, right? And speaking of combat, Crystal Lake is here too, to tell us the story of what happened between the beginning of Friday the 13th and the end of it. Or whatever. You know what I mean.
Topics:
Street Fighter
Crystal Lake
Extreme gore
Some people get mad when they drink. Some get sad. Some get happy. But we all get sad when we watch documentaries, because every documentary these days is a downer. We're going to guess that the latest crop is no exception. Maybe not the Norm Macdonald one. But even that's not a sure thing.
Topics:
Alcohol
Relationships in the entertainment industry
Streaming prices
Norm Macdonald documentary
Elizabeth Holmes documentary
Elon Musk d...
There's a woman running for something or other in some place. Her interview has taken the internet by storm. You'll see why here. There's also a car taking the internet by storm but in a different way. That is to say, it's cool rather than sad and a little scary. Okay, it's still a little scary.
Topics:
Jaime West interview
Tesla flying Roadster
Meta smart glasses recording by themselves
(Part 4)
Doug Loon is the CEO of the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, at least for the next two and a half months. He also brings us said chamber's latest thing: the Coolest Thing Made in Minnesota, in which 64 things made in Minnesota compete to be voted the coolest. Did you know that all sorts of things were made and/or invented here? Not a lot of people do.
He also pops in on the Minnesota Business Podcast, a podcast about...well, w...
(Part 3)
Last time we had Christine on, we only got a bit of time with her. Enough for her to talk about Walk Beside Me, a book that's not about Christine, but also is. Since then, that book has become a movie called Hello Beautiful. It's in theaters now, and we're always talking about how you should go to the theater.
For more information about both the book and the movie, go to https://christinehandy.com/!
(Part 2)
There are some new things out. Keeping with tradition, they're kind of downers. The first is Jimmy, a movie about Jimmy Stewart and how being drafted into WW2 messed him up. Then there's In the Shadow of Eight, a book written by one of the "eight" in Jon & Kate Plus Eight. You can imagine how that one goes. Then we talk about MySpace for a while, because you gotta have a bit of fun.

Jimmy Stewart documentary

When you're a kid, saying weird stuff out of nowhere is cute. Even if that stuff makes absolutely no sense. But eventually you start saying things into a microphone, then a robot hears them and misinterprets them, and it's a big thing. This probably wasn't something you had to worry about ten years ago. Welcome to the future.

Abby is the owner of Sugar Lake Lodge up in Cohasset, where she also grew up. So if you think you like to go up north a lot, she's got you beat there. On the other hand, if you just want to spend some time by the lake and/or want to host a company retreat, she's got you covered.

Bill is back, and this time he's announcing a show he's doing in LA. Unfortunately, if you're not willing to go to LA, you can't see it. You also can't have a coconut cake unless you're willing to spend $125. So there you go, two reasons to visit right there.
(Part 2)
Tom Cruise is in trouble. Well, as much trouble as a man with infinite wealth and fame can be in: his latest movie isn't doing so great. But at least he wasn't told that he can't buy a mechanical bird.
Topics:
Digger is a major bomb
Scientology and Tom Cruise
Michael Jackson's questionable legacy
Kelly Clarkson attempts to purchase Molly the mechanical bird
(Part 1)
Ilhan Omar's house got raided by the feds. Whether this amounts to anything or not, we'll see. Until then, let's talk orchards. It's orchard season, after all, and we went to a rather involved one over the weekend.
Topics:
Ilhan Omar's house raided
Sage's many soccer games
Fall Harvest Orchard
Michael Jordan jersey sells for 14 million dollars
(Part 4)
Bob and his co-author, Tom Clavin, write about a man who was captured in WW2 three times, parachuted into German-occupied France twice, and forced some Nazi officers to toast FDR once. And the most interesting part is, it's all true. His name was Peter Ortiz, also known as The Phantom. Also also known as Das Fantom, depending on how German you are.

(Part 3)
It's October, so it's time to get spooky. Carrie was pretty spooky, right? And by "was" I mean "is", because it's back as a miniseries. Other Mommy is also apparently great if you like being jump scared every ten minutes. Lastly, Nic Cage is in Stillwater. That's not really scary, but it is worth mentioning.
(Part 2)
Want to be an audience member for DWTS? Apparently, it's free. Aside from the plane ticket. And lodgings. And the fact that you have like three days between being selected and having to be in studio. But you know, aside from that, no cost at all.
Topics:
DWTS studio audience lottery
TV viewership is down
Category 3 hurricane about to hit Florida
Colin's big no
Kristyn in Ottawa
Brightline and other failed infrastructure projects
(Part 1)
Christa Pike is all over the news for having her execution botched. Apparently the same doctor who botched hers did the same thing to another prisoner just a few months ago. You'd think that would be impossible, but then we get into stories about pets not being put down properly, sedatives not being administered, and other fun stuff. It's a very cheery episode.
Topics:
U of M theme song
Sports radio
Kathryn gets into mahjong
