Extremely Online
Hello babies!
It's MaxFunDrive 2023, and we're pulling all the stops! Emily shares her experience in the limelight at the WGA Awards, and Lisa struggles to find something to share during Chunch Chat. Also - is Emily's dog named after a Roman demigod? On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Extremely Online," a phrase referring to someone closely engaged with Internet culture. -
Panty Raid
Hello babies!
We are hot off the heels of the WGA Awards, and we have all the red carpet gossip! (Editor's note: This was recorded the day before the awards, so we actually pretty much talk about Love Island and Jeopardy and Horses or whatever) On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for Panty Raid, which "was an American college prank of the 1950s and early 1960s in which groups of male students attempted to invade the living quarters of female students and steal their panties (undergarments) as the trophies." -
The Hum
Hello babies!
In case you were wondering, neither of us has seen a whale or a dolphin recently. We have tried but failed. However, we do have some escaped domestic animal stories that we'd love to share! Emily ate a disappointing meal and Lisa shared the joy of horses with her friends. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "The Hum," a name often given to widespread reports of a persistent and invasive low-frequency humming, rumbling, or droning noise audible to many but not all people. -
Christmas in July
Hello babies!
You've all been asking for it (seriously) - we're now officially an anal fissure themed podcast! I went into the podcast hosting settings to change our show's category from "Comedy" to "Anal Fissures (Discussion)" but it was surprisingly not available as a category anymore. On Chunch Chat, we talk about Martha's inability to hashtag correctly. On Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Christmas in July," an incredibly unseasonable submission. -

Neuticles
Hello babies!
We're stepping into the New Year by trying out some new styles. Who cares if we need to get fully undressed to pee every 45 minutes? In addition to refreshing our wardrobes, we're also giving our timelines a refresh by subscribing to some new Subreddits. On Chunch Chat, we discuss a very pixelated gecko. And on Wiki of the Week, we read the Wikipedia page for "Neuticles," prosthetic testicular implants for neutered dogs and other domestic animals. Humans cannot legally get Neuticles, but I'm consulting a lawyer regarding the legality of having authentic dog testicles implanted.

1290 stars!!!!
This was one of the first podcasts I fell in love with and it is a constant reminder to be weird and myself, and that that weirdness is art.
Always look forward to it
I’ve been listening to this podcast for years. I prefer the current format because Emily and Lisa are hilarious discussing whatever comes to mind. I always look forward to new episodes
Goofy and fun
Always funny and full of surprises
