To celebrate recording on 4/20, Mike brought in an article about a dude trying to swap his drugs for some BW3 fried pickles. After they closed. To minors. While wearing an ankle monitor. Tom stuck to the classics and tells the tragic tale of Michael Da Costa, the official image of Episode 52. Michael here was doing stuff while naked, decided he needed some clothes, so he strolled into the local thrift store, still naked. Bad things ensue. Join us as we discuss their stories, Tom's exciting move updates, and how much we love Fallout.

See that guy? That's Jonathon Perry. In this month's episode, Mike and Tom discuss his recent arrest and why it's never a good idea to wear clothes with your name on it when attempting a kidnapping. Oh, and a guy got stung in a really bad place by a scorpion. And no, I don't mean Vegas, I mean his testicle.

In this episode, Mike and Tom celebrate the 50th episode of their podcast. They discuss their beer preferences and reminisce about their past drinking experiences. They reflect on the longevity of their podcast and tease some future news. They also share their thoughts on attending a funeral and reflect on life. The conversation then shifts to a discussion about a Florida man who drove his truck into the ocean and blamed the truck for not being able to surf. Finally, they remember the CD 101 radio station and its impact on the industry. In this conversation, Mike and Tom discuss their memories of terrestrial radio and the importance of local radio stations. They also delve into a news article about a Florida lawmaker seeking looser regulations on killing bears, claiming that black bears on crack are ravaging people's homes. The conversation highlights the consequences of hunting bears and the latent racism in wildlife policies. Finally, they reflect on their podcast journey and encounter technical difficulties with the outro music.

We are at episode 49! Can you believe it? This month, Tom and Mike discuss a Chinese Chess champion who excels at alliteration, but I can guarantee did NOT leave a big enough tip for housekeeping to cover the damage he did during his stay. Also, the guys discuss one man's naked excursion into an aquarium at a Bass Pro Shop. You know, the important topics of the day.

Since the CW as we know it is gone, we made our own crossover event! Tom and Mike packed up the Bums Corner studio and hung out with Jenny and Jean-Paul from WTF Did I Just Watch to discuss a couple Christmas horror movies - "Werewolf Santa" and "It's a Wonderful Knife". PROTIP: If you do a shot every time someone says "orgy massacre" at the beginning of the show, you'll be hammered for the whole episode.

Fran stopped by the studio, and not only did we have lots of fun, but we learned too! We caught up with our wonderful friend, then talked about lizards in Cinci, stupid kids, and what life would be like if you were stupid(er). Also, we started on a new platform this episode, and Mike apparently forgot how mute buttons work. What a jackass.

Stay classy Ohio! Mike and Tom go back to basics this episode, covering a brawl at a Toledo's Wendy's because of missing cheese, and...get this...a story about a stolen bus, a dead deer, and a naked police chase.

(Originally recorded as Imperfect Recall episode 1) Let’s face it, we all wore masks in high school.  Did any of us really get to know the real people behind them, or were we content just knowing the public persona? Cohosts Tom Arnholt and Mike Eshelman discuss the concept of the show and what to expect in future episodes.

Tom found another great survey for the guys to dissect, this time about people who self-identify as nerds or geeks. So what kind of people think of themselves as circus freaks that bite the heads off of live chickens, you may ask? The answer may shock you!

So Tom and Mike recorded in the same room for the first time! How neat! They were also joined by their dear friend Rick Tanski. What’s the special occasion you ask? Why, it’s the boys’ 35th reunion! Part one of the episode takes place the day before the big event, and part two is a couple weeks after. Did they make new friends? Did they face their bullies? All these questions and more are answered inside.

Sometimes we can be pretty judgemental on this show. This month’s episode is no exception. Tom and Mike dig deep into what keeps couples up at night (cover hogs and non-night showerers based on the stats) and discuss a guy in Japan that married a digital teenager and had a life-size doll made of her. You can pretty much sum up their relationship by the looks in their eyes in that picture, right?

So Tom and Mike set aside an entire episode to talk about Pornhub analytics. They comment on all 50 states’ most often search term when compared to all other states. We can’t kink shame, but dammit, we can make fun of some (most) of the selections.

Get a load of these clowns! Holy crap! What kind of terrible garbage did these doofuses get into? Tune in and find out! At some point the audio went out in this episode, but that’s okay, nobody listens that far in.

Check out those mugshots. Ouch! Not a great look guys, not at all. But we’re not here to bash someone on their looks. No, we’re here to bash terrible decisions, and man, these cats have some doozies. From lighting a car on fire to keep it from getting stolen, to hanging out at a bank robbery to see what the silent alarm does, these guys make us feel slightly better about our lives.

Sure, we ran long.  And yeah, we got derailed a few times.  Okay, fine, we had more questions than answers by the end.  Yes, there are barking dogs at one point.

As a last minute replacement for a sick guest (hope you feel better, Tort) Dan Rockwell swooped in and saved the day, offering some very interesting and intuitive perspectives on his youth.  When you were younger if you felt awkward and had no idea what you were doing, the important takeaway is…you weren’t alone.  We all felt that way.

Tim Tortorello joined us for a very interesting episode.  We ran long, and Tom’s neighbor decided to hold a concert in his back yard that couldn’t be 100% edited out, but there’s so much insightful stuff in here that it’s worth the extra time.  Tort takes us back to his formative years and really opens up about what life was like for him as a teen.  The lesson we continue to learn through these voyages to the past…you’re not alone, and it gets better.

(Originally Recorded as Episode 1 of Nostalgia Sux/Rox) Tom and Mike set sail on their voyage into their youth with a look back at the TV sitcom Taxi. Does it still hold up? Join the guys as they rewatch the show to see if Nostalgia sucks, or rocks.

(Originally Recorded as Nostalgia Sux/Rox Episode 2) The guys take a look at the beloved movie “Gremlins” for their second episode. Taking off the rose tinted glasses of nostalgia, do they think it sucks, or do they think it rocks? Tune in to find out!

Our dear friend Peggy couldn’t join us this month, so Tom and Mike got all mushy, talking about feelings and friendship and stuff. But to get there, we first discussed a breakup caused by the Tubi Superbowl commercial, and some young man running through a hotel naked with a toilet plunger while harassing guests and pulling fire alarms. And if you’re wondering how the header image ties into all that, this is our show’s 3rd anniversary. We’re heading into our 4th year making the world a better place!
