    I think there's a screwworm on my Ringdocus

    Send a text This week the squad unites for a typical idiotic chat session. Right out the gate, the Swan aka energy vampire and destroyer of fun, bores the crap out of the squad with her very long crime report. You cannot expect the squad to listen intently. It's like 5th grade English class all over again. The Beaveman brings it hard with Not So Grand Rounds. This week, he covers that flesh eating New World Screwworm, complete with pictures. Then Drippy Steve blows it. Of course he does. His idea of telling us his plan to talk about something cool is even more boring than Swan. Leave it to Drippy to take a dope topic and make it lame. The Trailer Park Monster saves the day by telling us about the Rindocus, which let's face it, just looks like a really bad taxidermy job, but it's still a cool story. Oh, and dumb jokes with Swan. Don't worry, she is still really bad at it. At some point the Beaveman plays audio of a joke he is working on. He and Steven are working off the same premise to see who has the better joke. Enjoy!

    Swan's Food Aggression Disorder

    Send us a text On this week's episode, we dive into Swan's Food Aggression Disorder. Swan brings us this week's crime report written by our crime reporter Angela Tripsalot.  The case of the Tik Tok Murders of James and Kristin Brock from Carrollton, Georgia on February, 20, 2025.   The Squad takes the Binge Eating Disorder Questionnaire together - giving their honest answers and the kind of self-realization you didn't ask for but probably needed. It's part comedy, part group therapy, and 100% typical Slaptail chaos. Play along at home and learn something about yourselves - Mainly, DON'T touch Swan's food!

    The Nose Knows Sharks

    Send us a text The Squad unites this week for a fun weekly chats with our friends around the world. Steven is overly aggressive immediately which seems to rub off on the Swan.  Swan brings us the crime report as written by our resource on the, "ground," Angela Tripsalot. This one is super interesting but of course, the Squad makes fun of tragedy. That's how you get through it. Gallows humor baby! This is a report a case out of Virginia that involves accusations that a former IRS agent conspired with his au pair, Juliana Peres Magalhães, to murder his wife, Christine Banfield, and Joseph Ryan on February 24, 2023.  Swan was also instructed to work on her broadcast journalist voice. Do you think she was successful?  The Dark Lord of Browntown brings us interesting information about a movie about the Mothman that was never released. Was the mafia to blame. Sorry, what mafia????  Mothman: The Film That Never Was is a documentary detailing the chaotic production of a 1997 independent horror film directed by Earthworm Jim creator Doug TenNapel. Shot in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, the original movie was abandoned due to funding loss, bizarre production hurdles, and, as explored in the documentary, alleged threats from local mafia figures.  The Beaveman brings us this weeks, "Not So Grand Rounds." Hansen's disease, otherwise known throughout the ages as Leprosy. Let's end the stigma, seek compassion, provide care, and not have intercourse with Armadillos! We're talking to you Florida.  And finally, the Swan brings us her attempt at jokes. We know you all look forward to that every week.  Throughout the episode, the Beaveman recites the iconic monologue from Quint in the movie Jaws. Probably going to hear some form of that regularly from now on.  Thank you to our listener's throughout the world. Your support means everything to us. We hope our podcast helps you get away from the BS for at least an hour or so every week.  Support the show

    The Peanut King Defeats the Fiery Dragon

    Send us a text The Squad unites to share their collective idiocy with the world. The Swan brings us true crime out of Columbus, Ohio. A developing story of the tragic murder of loving parents who leave their two children behind. A suspect is in custody. Yeah, pretty sure he did it. We're going to go out on a limb here. Our crime reporter Angela Tripsalot will continue to provide us with updates on this developing, sad story.  JD gives us a history of the dragon in different cultures, tying directly into the Beaveman's continuing presentation of the Fiery Dragon of Medina. Get ready to hear the squad get grossed out as the Beaveman talks about the life cycle of the Guinea worm, complete with showing the squad pictures. But fear not people of Earth, for a hero emerges. You guessed, it, the Peanut King himself, President Jimmy Carter. Through his efforts with supporting the cause along with the heroes on the ground and the good people of the affected nations, Guinea Worm Syndrome is nearly eradicated.  Thank you to our listeners throughout the world.

    The Fiery Serpent of Pleiades lives in Beaveman's Pants

    Send us a text It's another great episode. Bringing comedy to the world while it burns around you. Gotta do your part to make people smile.  This week Steven whines about his pathetic comedy career. Stop doing bringer shows! This isn't 1986. Pay your comedians you worthless comedy club.  The Beaveman talks about being sleepy. Stay tuned for that one man show.  This weeks POS is brought to you by the Swan. Stay tuned for updates from our crime reporter Angela Tripsalot. She's going to have to be on the case now since Swan provided the most minimal of information.  Drippy Steve talks about Alien species like he is reading a book report he wrote just before class. How is this potato taking podcasting seriously? Thankfully the Beavman delivers with his presentation about the Fiery Serpent of Medina, the mythology or stories behind the Guinea worm throughout history.  Swan brings us home with dumb jokes with the Swan. She's getting better, but none of us want to hear the parrot joke ever again.  Oh, and Steven is apparently a chick magnet. We have no idea why. Check out our website. He is nothing to look at, unless you like Ginger Potatoes. Also check our bios, send us messages, follow us on socials.

    A Parrot Walks Into an Oyster Bar in Anaheim

    Send us a text This week on the Slaptail Squad, the trinity of power unite! Witness the power of three as they podcast. We start off with a tragic story from, you guessed it, Florida. Just another family annihilator wannabe. Can people just take themselves out instead of those around them?  Then the Beaveman keeps it coastal and presents yet another gross condition, infections with Vibrio Vulnificus. Don't eat that!  JD recounts reports of ghostly encounters at the happiest place on earth, and Swan brings us home with you guessed it, dumb jokes with Swan.  Any bets on whether or not she gets through the Parrot joke?  Guess you have to listen to find out.  Say hi! We want to hear from you!

    Send us a text It's the last episode of 2025! On this episode the Beaveman presents one of the most ridiculous conspiracy theories out there. The belief that Lyme Disease was created in a lab on Plum island at the Plum Island Animal Disease Center. I mean, let's not just assume that Lyme Disease has been around for thousands of years. That would be ridiculous. It's clearly a biological weapon created by an evil genius in order to wreak havoc on the battlefield by causing a rash and vague symptoms like fatigue and joint disease weeks to years after exposure. Oh wait, that is ridiculous. Welcome to some of the most ridiculous conspiracy theories that could only be imagined in the USA.  Thank you to all our listeners. Let's make 2026 another entertaining year of idiocy.  https://www.slaptailnation.com Support the show

    Remembering the gifts Rob Reiner gave us

    Send us a text This week the Beaveman talks about all the fond memories he has of the life changing gifts that legendary director Rob Reiner gave to the world.  The Swan shares her memories as well and they have a light hearted discussion about their love of The Princess Bride and Stand By Me specifically, as well as Beaveman's new crush on 40-something Kathy Bates.  They are joined by Drippy Steve who is younger than the Beaveman and Swan. So he gets an education about all the pop culture references throughout the decades that can be directly attributed to The Princess Bride, Spinal Tap, and Stand By Me. These are not all of the legendary Rob Reiner's contributions. There are too many to discuss in so little of a time to do them justice.  He gave the world many gifts. Our hearts go out to the friends, family, and all the lives touched by Rob and Michele Reiner.  Rest in peace.  https://www.slaptailnation.com Support the show
