#444 - "With Ray and Derek" - The Podmas Castacular

We dive into the archives this week, bringing up a blast from the....wait, these weren't our archives. We introduce a long-forgotten episode of the podcast "With Ray and Derek," which features comedians Ray Harrington and Derek Furtado doing a 70's-style Christmas variety show (including an appearance from our pal Brian Beaudoin) from a few Christmases past. We think it's too good NOT to share, so we recorded a wraparound and called it our show! We're like Buzzfeed!

#359 - The Story of Casey Jost

We are joined this work by writer/comedian/musician/producer of Impractical Jokers Casey Jost! We talk about his background in comedy and music and what shaped his voice as a performer. We get his entire story from child to grown-up child! We also talk about Limp Bizkit. We learn the story of how he got involved with Impractical Jokers, talk about improv team names, and riff on a billion different topics. It's a very engaging conversation with a genuinely good, funny dude.

Episode 310: The Story of The Portuguese Kids

This week finds us talking with two of "The Portuguese Kids," Brian Martins and Derrick DeMelo. Brian and Derrick talk about how they (and the other Portuguese Kids) got their start making funny videos, how they got together as a group, and what made them shift their focus to the Portuguese side of things. We also have one of my favorite-ever running jokes throughout the episode. It's a good talk about ensemble comedy and some of struggles they've had to overcome to keep pursuing what they love. Ummmmm...Obrigado? Is that right?

Episode 182: Halloween 2014

Chuck and Brad are joined by Halloween "experts" Nic Hallenbeck and Brian Decoteaux for a spooky talk about the spookiest season of the year! After some chatter about upcoming events and the below Web Coulier, the guys break into topic number one - the animated special known as "Halloween Is Grinch Night." Is it good? How does it fit into the extended Grinch-verse? Hear the unbiased, uncensored review!
The second topic is brainstorming - costume ideas and treat ideas. And while Brad doesn't have many ideas, rest assured they are better than any of the ideas Chuck solicited from friend of the podcast Eric Maksood.
Chuck then offers his Ultimate-As-Of-Now Halloween Playlist. A ton of songs from a ton of bands! The guys discuss the appropriateness of the songs mentioned and offer suggestions of their own. Listen soon and get in the Halloween "spirit!" (Even that is better than Maksood's jokes.)
