Episodes
It’s the season finale, folks! We ponder whether or not Tim Allen will sue us and somehow get to pirate tax auditors. Today we talk about the high-flyin’, name changin’, snarky-talkin’, ass kicker...Dick Grayson! You may know him as Robin or you may know him as Nightwing. If you’re like Katie, you don’t know him at all! He’s an ever-evolving sonuva and a wonderful character to end this season on. You're welcome. Katie teaches ...
Katie's really sick, so Matt does what he does best, forces her to record a podcast episode. We talk about how much more fun it was to be sick when you were a kid and how parents didn't know what the hell they were doing. Today we learn about the extremely over-powered, leggy magician that no one takes seriously, Zatanna. Matt and Katie get real whiney over a fictional character today, folks. Katie teaches Matt about SNL!...
Its the Halloween episode! We talk all things spooky and scary, like Limp Bizkit and how their career is coming back! Today we learn about the katana wielding, zombie de-beaning, badass boss lady from The Walking Dead, Michonne! She's a choppin' gal who aint afraid of nothin and super loyal to her friends! Friggin nice! Katie teaches Matt about poop! Gross!
Talk of cutesy nicknames makes us realize candy is just the redneck cousin to baked goods, but those bank lollipops are fire. Today we learn about the biggest and smartest big boi with a laser cane, Kingpin. Watch out, he’ll turn your dad into a bee. Katie teaches Matt about tornados. Twister. Helen! BILL!
Matt and Katie tell us exactly why working in the service industry is a walking dumpster fire and if you don't tip well you're a monster. Today we learn about the red-eyed, charming AF, playing card exploding badass that every boy wanted to be growing up, Gambit. He was a thief, he got a cool girlfriend, and he gets all kinda evil for a bit. It's all just a good time. Katie teaches Matt about hair! It's on you!
Matt has the stupidest injury ever and tells us all about it. No, for real, it's really dumb. Today we learn about the plantiest, most toxic and deadly of ladies, Poison Ivy! While getting into the nitty-gritty of her background, we create (and talk at great length) about our best (worst) invented character yet, Joffrin Weggins. Be on the lookout for Matt saying eviscerated 400 times. Katie teaches Matt about New York City! We...
We talk about nude beaches and how the ocean is always horny. You're welcome. Today we learn about the chain whipping, flamey skulled, motorcycle mounted leather daddy, Ghost Rider. He's married to the road and living a sitcom with a demon trapped inside him. Talk of past Ghost Riders using animals as their vehicle gets Katie and Matt sexually confused about kangaroos. Katie teaches Matt about kilts! Scottish!
Matt has a thick-daddy mustache named Mustache Goodfellow and Matt doesn't know what a Thot is. Today we learn about the crossbow-shootin' outcast vigilante who doesn't give no hecks about Batman's approval, Huntress. She kicks the mafia's ass, befriends other badass ladies, and she doesn't let Batman get away with saying Florida slang terms that sound offensive but actually aren't. Katie teaches...
Shaquille O’Neil is real big, huh? Also, Kevin Hart and The Rock should make Rush Hour sequels, to which we name all of them. Today we learn about the biggest and shiniest hero with a red cape and S on his chest: Steel. He’s Superman with a testicle-hitting smart-mallet who we think should wield T-shirt cannons on his shoulders. Katie teaches Matt about Avril Lavigne! Sk8r Boi!
A song needn't bother if it doesn't have a saxophone or organ solo. And did we all have that crappy keyboard with the stupid noises or just us? Today we learn all about the ever so complicated and driven to coo-coo-ness, Scarlet Witch and how she goes from givin' regular ol' finger blasts to being able to UNDO REALITY. Bit of a leap, but we're here for it. Katie teaches Mattt about Bill Nye the Science Guy!...
Matt and Katie are not sponsored by any hard seltzer company, but they sure as hell talk about their favorite for way too long. Today we learn about the tiniest little Avenger with the biggest heart, Ant-Man! Talking about how different (and great) Aunt Man would be quickly turns into a 2 minute long bit about how much Grease sucks. Bonus learnings about Giant Man, Wasp, and Stature! You're welcome! Katie teaches Matt about t...
Katie got her mind so blown by the Black Widow movie, she is now going to become a Russian spy to infiltrate the Americas. See ya! Today we learn about the coldest dang guy with a frozen wife, Mr. Freeze and how he got so damn cold-hearted! Matt and Katie reenact the delightfully bad ice puns said by Awww-nold in Batman & Robin. We do a really...ICE job. See what I did there? Katie teaches Matt about them both being an Aquari...
Katie was almost a dog-sled captain and wonders if Matt would rather die hot or cold? Today we learn about the inside/outside scary evil Nazi-man that is the Red Skull. Why he got so evil, how his face so red, and what the hell is his deal, huh? Things get surprisingly musical and we talk more about bellhops than we had ever hoped. Katie teaches Matt about periods! Bye stigma!
Coughing sucks and can be awkward as hell, especially if you're like Matt and choke on literally nothing or Katie who hell-screams her coughs. In our biggest episode to date, we discuss the biggest boy you don't want to date: Galactus. He's the size of a planet, he devours worlds, and he does it all while rocking a goofy-ass helmet. Big wow. Katie teaches Matt about Ramen! Noodz!
You ever seen a damn superhero that's bald, got dandruff, or has some serious chaffing going on? We didn't think so. Doesn't stop us from talking about it and how only sexy-hot people get to be heroes. Today we learn about Image Comics' very own Prince Robot IV. He's a complicated robot-man who goes to prostitute planets when jostled and just wants to be a good dad. We talk about why babies are so cute and ...
Matt's got too much energy, Katie loves her laser tag, and we talk about the drug-like joy of hide-and-seek. Today we learn about the day-walkin' sword totin' vamp-killin' kickass that is Blade. We both agree that french vampires don't give a care and that The Count from Sesame Street could foil Blade with his cuteness. Katie teaches Matt about cats! Me-wow!
Oh gosh, folks, it's real hot outside, so Matt and Katie slurp on some delicious iced bevvies while agreeing that drinking milk on a hot day makes you an alien, psychopath, or an alien psychopath. Matt also runs for president on his milk stance. Today we learn about the dark and grizzled private eye that is Jessica Jones while diving into the nitty-gritty of her past as well as her former crime-fighting title of Jewel. Hilari...
We take a HARD gear-shift from mouth instruments to Arnold Schwarzenegger then back to weird mouth noises that Matt thought was his Arnold impersonation. We learn about the 50,000-year-old caveman turned immortal, Vandal Savage, and why he became literally every walking dumpster fire of a person you know and hate within history. Katie teaches Matt about Jim Henson! Mups and Frags!
We talk too long about smashing crabs with mallets and our favorite cartoons making comebacks as Matt struggles to speak good. We learn about one of the few comic book characters Katie actually knows and loves, the lightning bringing goddess of weather herself, Storm, all while Matt busts out his slightly above-average impersonation skills that highly impresses Katie. Katie teaches Matt about goldfish! Glub!
Hello all you pandemic-soft lovelies! We're right there with ya and discuss the struggles of getting back in the gym so we don't look like our middle-school goblin selves again. Today we learn about Power Girl, how she's just Super Girl from another dimension, and even better and cooler than Super Man! If easy boob jokes terrify you, this is not an episode for you! Katie teaches Matt about the human body! We've ...
