okay I thought I could do a round of tags and then shower, but it's noon so brain is going 'but what if you don't have time to shower before you gotta leave???' so shower first, I guess

back when I have a clean
V O I D M O T H
whar go
Gävlebocken
Dollop live show!
V O I D M O T H
\o/

they're the history podcast comedy dudes that Fuck_Mars turned me on to while we were on vacation and I love them
Gävlebocken
they're gonna be at the Crest tonight
V O I D M O T H
I will have to look them up
Gävlebocken
The Egg Nog Riot ep is one that i go back to whenever I need a laugh
Gävlebocken
but they've done serious things too, but even the serious ones can take a turn for the ridic
Gävlebocken
but with their live shows they do local history? But it's also Friday the 13th? So I'm just kind of going about what might happen
V O I D M O T H
full moon too!
Gävlebocken
they did an episode about Ned Kelly and the Eugene Oregon Wobblies, it's all over the place, honestly I suggest find something you're vaguely familiar with and start there
Gävlebocken
(those were two seperate episodes, ned kelly didn't help the Everett -not Eugene- Wobblies)

Everett WA?
Gävlebocken
yup! Logger union strikes
Gävlebocken
which I knew a little bit about thanks to Utah Phillips
V O I D M O T H
I know a bit from those five years I spent in Seattle
Gävlebocken
they've got an ep on the Radium Girls, one about the Emu War, a more recent one about Harland Sanders, the Colonel
V O I D M O T H
Everett's about 45 min north
V O I D M O T H
Oh man the Radium Girls :\
Gävlebocken
that one's one of the ones that I felt bad for laughing about
Gävlebocken
(which happens frequently, actually)
V O I D M O T H
I mean...America's absolutely batshit approach to atomic power as magic!!! during the 50s would be hilarious if it didn't mean hundreds of hideous deaths
Gävlebocken
but the basic premise is that Dave Anthony has a history story, and he reads it to his friend Gareth Reynolds who doesn't know anything about it beforehand
V O I D M O T H
Sounds like a good format to build off of
Gävlebocken
they're both stand up comics, and they work really well together with the banter and sometimes go off on a side tangent to the story that is almost always hilarious
Gävlebocken
but yes! I highly recommend! I can usually only listen to a couple eps in a row, because hilarious as they are, they're definitely still two middle-aged white dudes
Gävlebocken
hour and a half until I hike to the traiiiin!
Gävlebocken
an hour /rolls around
Gävlebocken
I am excite
Gävlebocken
just about a half hour now!
Gävlebocken
should probably stuff things in my purse now so I'm not doing it on the way out the door
Gävlebocken
(like hoodie in case it's cold enough for one after the show/on the way home)
Gävlebocken
(and headphones, for the ride)
Gävlebocken
almost time to goooo /wigglewiggle
