It’s always a great day in the Papa’s Basement studios (which, ironically, is not located in a basement) when companies send us innovative and fun products to give away to the listeners (or keep, if my fingers are feeling especially sticky). This week we have not one, not four, but […]
Have you ever seen a really attractive homeless person? I mean exceptionally beautiful, to the point your jaw dropped? Well, on the way in to record this episode, I did. The woman in question looked like a young Jessica Simpson (and couldn’t be any dumber, so bonus) and it left […]
I watch a lot of movies. That’s what happens when you have HBO GO, Netflix and Amazon Prime coupled with no wife and kids and a job that lets you make your own hours. And, after having churned through so many movies since the inception of film streaming, I can […]
(Forgive the sometimes-shoddy audio quality of this episode: We experimented with a new audio setup and are still ironing out the kinks.)

A few weeks ago (so this might as well be a post about the Operation Desert Storm, given our attention spans), a server at Anita’s Restaurant in Ashburn, VA named Kelly Carter (who’s black) was left a zero tip and racist message on a receipt (link to an article about […]
I watched Sunday’s Golden Globes. (Not because I’m gay, but because I live with my mom. Please, get it right. I have a reputation to uphold!)
