Episode 6: The Funny Songs Episode
Listen
Summary
This month’s installment has Drew and Doug traveling down a “funny songs” rabbit hole, where all songs selected are either directly or indirectly funny. It’s all subjective, right? From the Dr. Demento era, to homages to comedy institutions like Arrested Development, SNL, and School of Rock, it’s anyone’s guess what will come up next in the setlist.
Weird News
Doug explains the origins of “Florida Man”, and presents exclusive audio of a 911 call where the caller wanted emergency services to help handle a minor dispute with a pizza shop.
Things That Make Me Mad (Debut)
Doug also debuts a new segment, “Things That Make Me Mad”, where he discusses his annoyance with some common phone-based behaviors.
It’s only fitting that Stanley finally showed up again for his Joke of the Week (Month) segment. Catch that near the end of the show.
Tune in, or don’t!
