Taika Waititi - Eagle vs Shark

Taika Waititi seems to be successful no matter what genre he explores. From vampires, and pirates, to superheroes, and droids, Waititi has a gift for evoking emotion when and where you least expect it, even when a young boy's imaginary friend is Hitler, as such is the case in his Oscar and Grammy award-winning film, "Jojo Rabbit".

It is his directorial debut, "Eagle vs Shark", however, that allows Taika Waititi to explore two of his most bizarre characters in what can only be described as the quirkiest love story that can be told about misfits finding common ground, in order to find out about themselves.

This episode does have a few curse words, just letting you know in advance.

Outrageous Fitness Trends

Fitness is a journey not a destination. Unfortunately for some people, the journey is a game of Candy Land where Queen Frostine rules with a sweet iron fist.

In the game of Candy Land, healthy food like fruits and nuts are dangerous.
When it comes to feeling fabulous and looking great, the deck is stacked against you in this consumer based culture where we are encouraged to take it easy and reach for whatâs comfortable because itâs a lot harder for corporations to make money from people being healthy than it is from people being sick.

Thankfully, you have us and Internet to weed through a lot of the strange ideas youâll find along this perilous rainbow colored path.

Today weâre taking a look at odd fitness trends weâve encountered through the years and try to shed some light into what works and what is a big puke bucket of crazy.

{Originally posted as FOF #1503 - Odd Fitness Trends - 01.12.12}

Join us for this and all the awesome news-

Glitter Day is coming, how to celebrate the gayest winter holiday in style.

â¢ The Grinch Who Accidentally Saved Gay Pride- Chicagoâs Cardinal George kinda sorta apologizes for comparing the Pride Parade to a Klu Klux Klan Rally, geting the parade organizers to change the start time back to a somewhat reasonable hour of noon.

â¢ A new Survey: 50% of gay dudes would chop off a year of their lives to have the perfect body.

Belgium Waffles in Iran

More bonus content from S-A-L 9000, the spinoff show from the Drew World Order found on Castbox's Livecast Feature. Â Some of our Iranian friends go full Miagi-son on Mr. Drew and use Rastafarian magic in order to hear AC/DC songs from a Kansas perspective. Â Quite possibly the most ridiculous thing you'll ever hear in a book. Â Listener discretion advised: Â NOT FOR CHILDREN and NOT FOR SOME ADULTS. Â Brace yourself before you ace yourself. Â Enjoy and Happy Pre-Christmas. Â The last NOEL is a story you rarely hear. Â Written by Benny Beham and Sal. Â Directed by the Bird of Sal, a non-fictional character from Earth. Â

Peel Your Boots Back

We start off by running through a couple new ideas for segments that we have (both of them stolen from other podcasts). While we are waiting for our tardy guest to arrive we run through a couple stories. By the time Oddball gets here - Doug has already started badmouthing his timekeeping skills. Oddball speaks for all Black Americans and declares that we are not racist (so we can put that to rest). We go through some new Patreon shout-outs and back stories.

Ep 87. The Bachelor, Yoga, Scary Movies, and Pop Music Trivia

I sit down with my buddy Lara Beitz (Oddball Comedy Fest) and we chat about her four favorite things: Watching the Bachelor, practicing yoga, screaming at scary movies, and bobbing your head to pop songs. We talk playing instruments, recording in a very humid room, and Chicago/LA standup fun. This is a four category, five questions each episode, something I haven't tried before, so let me know if you dig it! And make sure to stay tuned for two rounds of Daily Disney Trivia and a great Du Hast remix by Frawsty at the show's end.

In this episode we learn that Pizza and Pipes was apparently a thing in the pacific northwest in the 1970s? Who knew. This episode may give you nightmares due to the shaky audio transfer or creepy movie themes or both.

Ep. 35 - Howard Kremer

Only fitting that the first episode of the summer features the King of Summah, Howard Kremer! I toured with Howard across the country on the Road to Oddball tour and somewhere along the way we broke out the podcasting gadgetry in a hotel room to talk Austin Stories, Dragon Boy Suede and why we are both about ready to stay in one place for awhile. Have a summah!
