Under the Killing Stone

I have reached many breaking points but perhaps this is the most alarming as it came from a story from early in the month, delayed, almost forgotten. Either way: I got bombed on Daisy Cutters and long nights listening to Echo and the Bunnymen. It’s all too much.

Parton the Interruption

On March 14th 2022 Dolly Parton rejected her nomination to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, rolling the very foundation of rock! We of course, respect the queen's decision, twas a most resplendent defiance and we are all not worthy (righteous air guitar riff).

Misteaks We're Maid

On March 1st, 2022: The world gasped in horror as the Wheel of Fortune came off it’s tracks, rolled into the audience and exploded, burning the studio down to the ground leaving only Pat Sajak and Vanna White to survive… is what you figured happened the way the internet lost its vowels about that episode. It is hilarious though.

Bonus Episode: Attack of the Brogans

It was a wild week in the comment section on TikTok after Chad went into it about Neil Young and Joe Rogan. So Chad has his good pal (and Resident Thinky Person on the Birdcast) Dr. Devon Price PhD to help him deal with it cuz he’s tiny, man, he’s got anxiety.

Get Dr. Price’s book LAZINESS DOES NOT EXIST cuz it’s good mind snacks!

Rogan v Young

Here’s the one that broke the Chaddosphere: Neil Young pulled out of Spotify in protest of them not pulling some Joe Rogan Experience episodes and Chad brought the facts and a lil opinion to the table and the Brosphere got the TikTok sillies. So here’s the full case presented as it was, no edits, LIVE in front of people’s faces.

Global Nothings

And just like that we’re back … again! First live show of 2022 snuck up on Chad and so he was late. Not that it mattered cuz he didn’t wanna do anything anyway. Luckily nothing happened that week except the Golden Globes. And even they didn’t happen so really: It all worked out.
