  • Great podcast if you’re already of limited intellectual capacity

    If you are more intelligent than a clever jellyfish, I’m not sure this podcast is for you. If you perhaps are an amoeba with fetal alcohol syndrome, this podcast will probably be right up your alley as Thomas routinely shows off his near mediocrity and at best middling education. He is very adept at shouting into a microphone about things he doesn’t know the first thing, so he’s got that going for him (?)

  • I politely disagree

    We MIGHT live in a "simulation" of sorts; if it is computer based, it isnt like any kind of computer that we can imagine right now. And the simulated world might be here so we can gather experiences and wisdom and make connections with each other. Just imagine you are a 1 week old fetus (on The Other Side) and you are plugged into this universe; and you are able to live a thousand lifetimes here before you are born there. Your IQ would be off the charts! You would have so much wisdom and know w... more

  • Thomas makes everything better. Lydia "assists"

    Thomas is the grease that makes the podcast go. He's the interested comedian or whatever they used to say on that other podcast. Lydia and Thomas are a pair. Thomas and Lydia don't put up with bullpucky. There is a podcast that is incredibly boring because Thomas is not there. All the podcasts. God Awful Movies should have Thomas and Lydia on. Just saying.

  • Israel-Palestine deep dive

    Thomas, thank you for the very compelling deep dive on the horrendous events in Israel and Gaza. You are providing much needed context and timeline of events to your listeners. I think your outrage and emotional responses are shared by most of us.
