Leia Weathington. Courtenay Hameister. It is what you wanted, and more. Leia discusses The Legend of Bold Riley, and why she made it. Courtenay discusses the commencement speech she had to give, and how it went over. They both discuss the subject of crappy little kids, like the ones who harassed that poor woman on the school bus, and how their parents dealt with them when THEY were crappy little kids, and how the internet seems to be playing a big part in how behavior is both celebrated and shamed, with examples ranging from The Oatmeal lawsuit, to the kickstarter for that Video Game Documentary about women in gaming, to that one guy with the most successful comedy podcast in the country saying that one thing about women not being funny. Speaking of women being funny; WE GOT TWO OF EM ON THIS SHOW AND YOU GUYS, IT’S PRETTY DAMNED GREAT. Listen for yourself and find out – some of the most tense, most revealing, and most satisfying discussion in the history of this show. (Kinda.)

awesome episode! And I agree, Caro@#a is the king of sweeping douchebag generalizations. Lets debate pie vs. cake one more time…
What I don’t get about the Adam Corolla thing…Is everyone really surprised that he said something douchey, unoriginal, and stupid as fuck? The only thing I was surprised about is that people still care about what he says.
But basically, I am tired of the “Durr, women aren’t funny,” conversation as well..
Totally agreed. I feel a strange pride in the fact that I’ve never been on board with his humor, even to the point of thinking back in the day that he was the worst relative to Kimmel on The Man Show, a show even dumber than the sum of its parts.
At the risk of pandering severely, I must say the two guests were funnier in one hour than the Adam C.’s collective career output.
Oh, you rotten panderer!
They were hilarious.
Hey, Guise. Guise, Srsly. Hey, Srsly. The Terminator is showing on my birthday. Srsly, Guise.
This episode was every bit as majestic as I’d imagined it would be.
Best sandwich = salami and fritos…yum. That’s it. No sauce, no cheese.
Holy shit! I can’t believe I didn’t think of this when Bobby asked me. My favorite goddamned sandwich is my own concoction: Smoked turkey, swiss cheese, mayonnaise on both pieces of bread (I know – gross. Shut up.), and a thick layer of chili cheese fritos. You don’t realize it at the time, but it’s served with a big side helping of self-hatred.
My new favorite ear sandwich: thin slices of Fatboy slathered in tasty artisan Courtenaise and succulent aLeiaoli served on toasted Cortbread.
Courtenaise? WELL DONE.
Aw man! I just remembered this meatloaf sandwich you can get at Swift on NE Broadway. It’s all crispy and it has a pepper relish…I wanted to snivel a little while i was eating it but I didn’t because I am an an adult and I am in control of my feelings.
Meatloaf sandwich? I am both scared and intrigued…
It is amazing. Do it to yourself!
I like the idea that a sandwich is something one does to oneself. “I’m about to grilled ham and cheese myself and there’s nothing any of you fuckers can do to stop me.”
Well obviously, dude is a rational parent whose daughter certainly needs no space to vent. What could she have to complain about? He’s not abusive or anything.
But no fuck the laptop guy and fuck you, Cort.
That scared the shit out of my friend. She had a abusive father and she said it threw up some red flags. Sure, she was mouthing off and venting to her friends (if she had a good reason to say these things I don’t know) but using violence to “solve a problem” was immature and stupid.
So fuck laptop dad indeed.
I hadn’t been thinking about trying mushrooms, and I had been considering the possibility of having kids in the future. But after this episode, complete 180.
YOU’RE WELCOME!
Our work here is done.
*Put on sunglasses. Jet packs away into the sunset accompanied by the opening chords of “Take My Breath Away”*
Great show! Please have Leia on with Courtenay again. They were hilarious!
How does one choose a favorite sandwich? There are so many good ones: leftover turkey sandwiches around Thanksgiving, Club House, French Dip, BLT, Grilled Cheese, Grilled Ham & Cheese, Tuna, Ham & Cheese, PB&J, on and on and on and on…………
Happy to say I was one of the graduates who Jefferson Smith spoke to on Monday. The best part was that when he first told us that we’re probably screwed, we cheered. Loudly. I think we just loved the straight talk/honesty.
As for the best sandwich debate, the correct answer is that ANY sandwich from Big Ass Sandwiches is the best sandwich.
For anyone who would like to hear it, here’s a link to the commencement speech I’d been obsessing about giving last Friday:

Why can’t people just be… well, reasonable? And positive? The whole story about the bus monitorer (is that a job title?) has made me both regain and lose faith in both humanity and the Internets at the same time.
To sum up:
You’re as bad as the bullies, dude. In fact, if you’re a grown up, you’re worse. Call your parents, as per #1.
1) Children being complete shits = bad. Parents, do your jobs!
2) People feeling sympathy for a complete stranger being bullied = good. That’s how you should feel.
3) People giving (as of today) over $500,000 to the stranger being bullied = fucking awesome! That people can be so spontaneous and generous is just fantastic
4) People making death threats – thousands of threats – towards 13-year-old boys = Fuck!
Excellent comment. I wish I could have worded how I felt about this horror as well as you did. I just got sick to my stomach and couldn’t think anything other then what is the world coming to.
I worked at Subway for 3 years. Club does NOT come with bacon.
Also, she needs to be on with Courtney as much as possible, forever.
At real restaurants or deli’s club’s DO come with bacon. Sorry. The biggest difference you see at most places is whether or not the club comes with ham & turkey or just one of those meats, but it is always accompanied by bacon.
Decided to double check before posting. Good thing I did. It turns out that with bacon and without bacon are legitimate variations. In fact it appears that the club can be almost any combination: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Club_house_sandwich
Your conversation about drummers makes me sad. When are the trumpet players going to get some love?
I think it’s less “your perfect just the way you are” being the problem and more “If my son/daughter failed in some way you must be insinuating that I failed in some way no it was you” thing.
Ahhh, Middle School. Fuck it hard.
Or what Courtney said.
Loved this show!!! Just listened to it today on my commute home. Made me smile at how many times Courtenay and Leia made Cort and Fatboy break down in laughter. Wednesday shows are my favorite (but I love them all!).
Best sandwiches are turkey hoagies on Amoroso rolls. Onions, lettuce, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Vinegar. Little bit of oil. And oregano. Oh, and provolone cheese.
