Oops All Segments

Funny man Vance Banzo (TallBoyz) leaves his mark on the show. The trio gets their Fantasy draft on as they comb through some horrific flight logs and rank the names they find.

After cutting through some tension, they get on track and talk about their place on the Snowpiercer train before diving into a session of Heardle with Glasshouse Banzo. This may be the worst one yet.

Vance Banzo:

Comedian Jared Story swings down into our depths to chat about his new comedy album Good Ideas. Then the trio tackle the task of searching out the superior song for their funerals.

Then they chat wild animal encounters and take it home by dialing up 1-800-BADASS.

Jared Story:

Kevin and Thomas are left to their own devices and they discuss The Quarry before Thomas drags Kevin through a quiz of Iceland’s tourist attractions. The wheel then demands that the boys open up about personal stories and Kevin keeps them on track.

After airing some dirty laundry, Thomas opens his drawers for the world to see.

Kevin then takes the reigns as the duo react to the trailer for John Travolta’s Fred Durst-directed travesty, The Fanatic.

Sad joins us for a dive into changing opinions (with a special appearance from their cat, EggBoy). Sydney then gets the guys to pitch brand new podcasts and Kevin gets confessional and Thomas buries a hatchet.

Finally, the three get into it over robot unionization in a last-ditch effort to save humanity.

Sydney’s instagram:

Theatre man from around town (and the current artistic director of Shakespeare in the Ruins) Rodrigo Beilfuss steps off the stage into our groundling pit.

We improvise wrestling promos before Rod is subject to Jesse’s segment from last episode. PlayItForward has Rodrigo Beilfuss creating an RnB interpretation of his life.

Then we get into the weeds about Oppenheimer, Anatomy of a Fall, and all things Denis Villeneuve.

The Year of Magical Thinking at Prairie Theatre Exchange:

Friend and fellow basement dweller Jesse Bergen returns to the segment studio to go on a fact finding mission. Then Jesse decides to set a real trap for the next guest on the show.

Rounding out a scatological scattershot of a show, we then discuss a true time travel quandary that really stinks.

Jesse’s Holiday D&D Episode:

Ken Hall (The Umbrella Academy) joins the boys in creating the 12 Rules for Strife as Kevin freezes up.

Ken then gets the boys to get their dream vacations started. Then Ken flexes his knowledge as 14-time visitor to Punchdrunk’s Sleep No More as he prepares for his final visit. He lets the boys in on all the secret tips and tricks you can imagine.

Ken Hall at the Ontario Improv Festival:

Brad Hild (Hill Kings, The Headgum Podcast) steps down to the deceptively simple depths of chaos as they attempt to impersonate yet another episode of If I Were You.

Brad then takes the boys for a look under the hood in his own segments. First we try out Uncut Gems (sponsored by Intact America) and take a gander at Nanalan. Then everyone is anointed with brand new nicknames.

Brad Hild:

Cosplay content creator TheMatrixxx joins the boys as they look back on incredible internet content that gets them giddy, including screaming cowboys and Dracula Flow 3.

TheMatrixxx then guides us through a discussion of WWE’s 2024 Royal Rumble.

Eventually we get around to a deep dive on our appreciation of Spider-Man, and Thomas does his best to keep up.

TheMatrixxx:

John MacDonald brings back the good ol’ days as he joins Thomas and Kevin to reminisce about his days in the Black Hole Theatre, his outshining Kevin in The Pinkerton’s, Midnight Mass, and Snowpiercer, and Sugar Crisp Cereal.

John also gets Thomas and Kevin to dig into the discography of the Fast Life Pretty Boys and the trio look over the Pizza Hotline menu.

They round out the episode by deciding the small ways they would make the world a worse place. Michael Cudlitz is back.

John MacDonald:

Comedian Jen Connor offers some editorial advice to Kevin’s comedy. Then the three reminisce about Blink 182 and do their best Tom DeLong impression. Kevin displays a video of him getting concussed (that ended up on MTV's Ridiculousness)!

Then Jen aims for the title of most prepared guest as she guides the boys through a Choose Your Own Adventure style story where Kevin and Thomas play an up-and-coming comedian in the Chicago scene performing at the Annoyance.

FInally, the trio tackle a food-based quandary that aches the tummy.

Jen Connor:

Comedian Big Daddy Tazz brings the good vibes and crazy tales to the show. A travel story showing WestJet’s shining customer service makes an appearance alongside the gang discussing the ideal last meal on death row.

Kevin forces a game of Jett-perdy onto everyone.

Tazz then takes the boys down memory lane and the trio chat best gifts given, best gifts received, and how to find your inner gifts!

Comedian Sarah London goes Gerk Mode with the boys and chats mobile game addictions along with creating new emojis (and reviews our most frequently used emojis). Sarah then gives the guys a job interview (that is entirely even, balanced, and fair). Sarah berates Kevin until he dies.

Sarah also discusses her multiversal podcasting counterpart who is a legitimate serial killer who podcasts about their own antics.

Sarah London:

Comedian and actor Rob Chesler helps the boys hold back the dam as they navigate soquids, wet (natural) gas, near-death experiences, and scatalogical situations.

Comedian Tim Blair (TallBoyz) joins the duo for a dive into deception, the work of Jeanne Moos, a food contest, and fan casting band bio-pics!

Tim Blair:

Jake And Amir finally delivered an apology for their theft. The boys react as improviser Susan Evans (Rapid Fire Theatre) helps keep them calm. The trio roast George Bailey (It’s a Wonderful Life), apologize for being late by recapping movies, and just have a… time.

Susan Evans:

Wayne Jones (White Rhino Comedy) steps into our chaotic corner of the internet to chat about the worst songs ever made, the best nights of our lives, and get educated from the depths of Reddit. Also they push for justice from Jake & Amir and their show Segments.

Wayne Jones:

Actor/comedian Shannon Bacchus joins the boys for a foray into flatulent history, a look at their beef with Jake and Amir from Headgum, LA living, and try to search through the noise. Also we play Oops All Shreks and it’s perfect improv. Simply perfect. Never been done better.
