#567 - Twin Spines Mall

Chuck gives a final update on his spine surgery as Brad preps for HIS spine surgery! It may have already happened by the time this episode is out! We discuss whether someone being a good person is intrinsic or extrinsic, Chuck's (hilarious) drug issues, Chuck's filming with TESD and Tuesdays and Kevin Smith. I learn about filming at the Fat Black Pussycat as well. Chuck talks about his weight loss and a major milestone. We talk about the Tony Hawk documentary and the movie "Nobody." Chuck talks about the It's Always Sunny Podcast and we celebrate the triumphant claiming of a Simpsons Arcade 1-Up machine. Chuck closes by getting unexpectedly poignant when talking about success, growth, and celebration.

Episode 290: Political Misgivings, Impractical Jokers Live, and Maron at Carnegie

We recorded this during the evening of Election Day...so we did not know who was going to win the election when we recorded. I express concerns about a candidate. Chuck reassures me that there is no way that candidate could win. *sigh*
Moving to areas that we're more comfortable with, we talk about Dave Chapelle hosting SNL this coming weekend, the 'Big Bang Theory' prequel, and the Simpsons being renewed for seasons 29 and 30 - how can an animated show stay fresh? What do we like about what South Park is doing? Also, the 'Deadpool' director left 'Deadpool 2' - what does that mean for the project?
Last week found us in New Jersey to see Impractical Jokers live (with Nitro Circus). How was it? Pretty great! But you should still listen for details! Our trip continued with some gallivanting around NYC, then seeing Marc Maron at Carnegie Hall. Spoiler alert: Marc Maron is brilliant. We also got to see Dane Cook at the Beacon Street Theatre, which was also great (in a different way). And finally...Chuck played poker for the first time ever! How did he beat me?!?!

Everything I said in this episode was recorded before Trump won. I was wrong when I predicted he'd lose, and outside of that, I stand by every opinion I expressed.
