TBTL: Too Beautiful To Live
TBTL is a daily show hosted by two longtime friends goofing their way through the world the best they can. Join Luke Burbank and Andrew Walsh as they cover the most important topics of the day, from 25 year-old film reviews to whether or not Andrew’s neighbors are secretly using his garbage bins.
Episodes
Coach Ben of the TBTL Junior Sluggers joins Luke and Andrew to recap the season and to look ahead to next week’s championship series. Plus, Luke attempts to sell some furniture leads him to the darkest corners of Facebook and Craigslist.
In another podcasting first, Luke explains sports betting to Andrew using Lisa Loeb and J.D. Salinger as examples. Luke would also like to set the record straight on the whole “Red Lobster went bankrupt because we ate too much shrimp” story.
David From The Basement stops by to share his thoughts (and reservations) about the newly announced Lord of the Rings project. Plus, is Andrew’s mailbox the target of nicely-named hackers?
Luke made it to the final game of the TBTL Little Sluggers regular season this weekend and has a full report. He also met the world’s most interesting Costco sample slinger after the game.
Andrew opens up about dealing with an audio addiction. Meanwhile, Farmer Luke has a new set of enemies, but unfortunately, he loves them. And they discuss the new sriracha shortage, which is coming on the heels of the last sriracha shortage.
Andrew realizes he has some verbal tics that he really needs to eliminate from his vocabulary. Meanwhile, Luke is floored by something that his parents did with their lattes this morning.
Andrew has been dipping into the dark arts of A.I.-generated music, and Luke is fascinated by the whole thing. They also discuss Tom Brady’s regrets about participating in his Netflix roast last week.
Luke and Andrew compare and contrast their garden hoses like only two middle-aged men can. We also get an exciting update on the TBTL’s Junior Sluggers’ latest exploits. And Andrew tries to explain an unusual experience he had checking out a neighborhood bar.
Luke’s plans to interview the creator of Baby Reindeer changed significantly this weekend after news about the show made international headlines. Plus, Andrew spent the weekend waiting for his Rant and Rave to appear in the Seattle Times.
Andrew has some serious questions about radishes, and Luke has some answers. Plus, it turns out TBTL isn’t the only podcast that’s been putting people to sleep. Andrew and Luke look at a viral video from the 1990s that is now a #1 sleep aid.
Andrew is hoping to leverage the power of his local newspaper in his ongoing conflict with his garbage collectors. He and Luke also discuss a new iPad commercial, which is rankling people from Hugh Grant to Luke Burbank.
Luke had a touching moment with one of his neighbors this morning, and it really moved him. Meanwhile, Andrew’s been having some interesting moments of his own on the city bus. And we have a much-needed update on the TBTL Junior Sluggers’ season.
Andrew did something wild and unusual last night: He watched a buzzy TV show! He and Luke also discuss Jerry Seinfeld’s claim that there isn’t anything funny on television anymore. And Luke went to see The Fall Guy this weekend and has some notes on the theater-going experience.
Andrew finds himself again thrown into a war over his garbage bins. And this time, he’s ready. Meanwhile, outside Napa, Luke finds himself in a weird prison of his own making.
Luke and Andrew compare and contrast their routines when grabbing a Subway sandwich. (Andrew’s involves “going wild next door.”) Luke’s also got a new favorite style of pants, but he’s unsure what those pants say about him.
Luke changed his entire outlook on life yesterday. Then he switched it back this morning. Plus, Andrew has an update on a TBTL mystery harkening back to the earliest days of the show.
Luke has a new passion, and it’s hanging tile. He and Andrew also discuss the harrowing story of a cat that was accidentally shipped to Amazon.
Andrew had a very unusual experience at the ballpark yesterday, which leads him and Luke to discover a seemingly soulless corporation behind some of today’s hottest music.
Luke finally sinks into the cinematographic splendor of Dune and Dune 2 with a little help from Pirate Walt and a long-forgotten AV cable. Meanwhile, Andrew betrayed a local company this weekend and is now paying the price.
Luke and Andrew team up with Lindy and Meagan from the Text Me Back podcast to create a podcasting supergroup of sorts. Or maybe it’s more of a “Voltron of hilarity”, or a “half-chipmunk, half-horse of digital audio content”? Whatever you call it, it’s a lot of laughs and a lot of talk about frying pans.
