Who Are These Podcasts?

This week we don't talk about just one sh*tty podcast, we're reviewing three very, very sh*tty podcasts. Doug (from the Who's Right Podcast) and Cros (from right down the street) join us to discuss Chewed Gum, a show that supposedly provides critical reviews of TV shows and movies. It's about time someone did this! Chewed Gum might just be the most clippable podcast we've ever reviewed. It's wall-to-wall fails.  We also discuss Opie and his big interview with Bruce Willis, the Ron Burgundy podcast that shouldn't exist, and podcast feuds no one knew existed.  Buy some sweet merch: https://www.wehavemerch.com/collections/who-are-these-podcasts Get 15% off your order on deepdiscount.com with promo code WATP15 http://bit.ly/DD-WATP Learn more about your ad choices.

Three guys make jokes about Nazis then immediately get uncomfortable about it and talk about 90s sitcom Home Improvement instead. As I type this, this show ranks as the 8th most popular comedy show on iTunes (177 places higher than the Official Podcast). Kaya joins the show to discuss Nazis, edgelords, Hannah Gadsby (the Opie of standups), Boomer Guy, and more.  Support the show (if you feel inclined): https://www.wehavemerch.com/collections/who-are-these-podcasts Learn more about your ad choices.

This week Vinnie joins us to reminisce about the Don and Mike Show. We both remember it being a good show but after listening to what Mike O'Meara and Robb Spewak are doing now, it seems implausible. Wacky voices, fake laughter, boring anecdotes, the mailbag - this show has it all... wrong. Opie tells, and then explains, the worst joke he’s ever attempted. We also hear from Scorch, Dorkles, Boomer Guy, and Steve Martin.

We're taking this week off so why not revisit an episode that was online for about a week before being taken down? After playing a couple of new voicemails, we join Karl and Doug from way back in March of 2018. WATP was different back then. Instead of talking about Opie we mostly talked about a woman who was threatening a lawsuit and arena rock bands. I'll say it again, thank God for Opie!

Cornballs + uncontrollable laughter + piss troughs = Citation Needed. Cros walked 1.9 miles through a snowstorm (literally) to join us and discuss how god awful these atheists are at podcasting. We also had the debut of Chris the producer. It was a successful debut if the objective was to get the hosts drunk on tequila and make the second half of the show a slur-fest.  We also talk about Opie's Instagram video, Opie's podcast, we give everyone an update on the ladies from TCGA, and we play a ton of voicemails.  Purchase merchandise: https://www.wehavemerch.com/collections/who-are-these-podcasts Support our sponsor: http://bit.ly/DD-WATP Learn more about your ad choices.

If you like shows where a bunch of dudes all yell over each other while discussing penetration with cartoon candy, you might want to skip this episode. Andy and I were not impressed.  After pushing through the audio assault that is the SleepyCabin Podcast, we hit on a number of other important topics. We find out what's new with Stuttering John, listen to some voicemails, find out that Opie is dumber than we thought, and give everyone an update on our budding relationship with Carl Ruiz.  Want to hear episode 88?

Ethan and Hila Klein are YouTube celebrities trying to interview actual celebrities. The result is exachee what you'd think. Kaya from the Official Podcast joins the show and points out that one of the two hosts (cough) Hila (cough) has a microphone in front of her for no apparent reason. Somehow, Jack Black actually takes the biggest beating in this episode. We also talk about a recent mention on No Agenda, flat earthers, WATP ep. 88, Ancient Aliens guy, and of course Opie Radio. It's almost too delicious to believe my friend. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week Kevin and Janel's dad join us to discuss the likeyest, most vocal fryiest podcast we've ever heard. This show is the perfect example of everything wrong with podcasts and podcasters, and so is This Could Get Awkward. After listening to the word "like" 418 times, we check in on Opie going on the Brother Wease show, listen to Sam Roberts' response to WATP, and check in on some new voicemails from upstanding citizens.

This week we listen to the worst professional broadcaster, Sam Roberts, read through his WWE fan fiction. This is a podcast that is hosted by a professional radio personality and not just some teenage boy in his bedroom... I think. Jen from the Jingles Department joins the show to discuss The Official Podcast's official response to last week's episode, Opie's drunken rant about Ant and Jimmy, and Opie's road trip to Rochester to visit his mentor. Also, Carl Ruiz comes up with a new nickname for the city of Buffalo. I'll give you three guesses. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week we review one of my all-time favorite podcasts, TBPITU, featuring hosts Maddox and Dick Masterson. Heads up, things might get confusing because joining us to analyze the show is Dick! We take a deep dive into Dick's old show, take a peek at what Maddox is doing currently, discuss appearing on bonus episodes of other podcasts, and talk about talking about pro wrestling. It's a marathon. If I was a smart podcaster I would have turned this into a two parter. Sh*t, why did I just think of that now? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Barstool Sports has been synonymous with average sports talk for years. But they realized something was missing. And that something was apparently... skanks. Well, problem solved. Cros and Anndeee join the show this week to review a painful-to-listen-to d*ck tease show. We also update everyone on how terrible Stuttering John's career is going and, of course, hang out at Gebhard's with Opie and the gang.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Dax Shepard used to be on a TV show with Ashton Kutcher, who's much more famous than him. He's married to Kristen Bell, who's much more famous than him. He hosts a podcast, that is somehow much more famous than him. Adam from the MHOG podcast joins the show for the first time to riff on Dax, Opie, and the Official Podcast's response to WATP's review of their show. Plus, we talk sh*tting at work. http://whoarethese.com  http://bit.ly/DD-WATP https://www.mhogpodcast.com  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week we listen to The Official Podcast and try to answer questions like "what are they even talking about?" and "does that make any sense?" After coming to zero conclusions on why this is a popular show, we chat about a recent Maddox episode and play a voicemail from a celebrity.  Kevin joins the show along with the guy who talks about ancient aliens on the History Channel and the drummer from Metallica. Yakov Smirnoff couldn't make it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ready for spooky ghost stories? Ready for a show with compelling hosts who can mix humor in with the paranormal effortlessly? Ready for high-end voice talent? Swing and a miss, strike three. Doug is back to help us dismantle this garbage podcast. Also, Opie learns how to pronounce his cohost's name, Bonnie McFarlane calls in, and we read recent five-star reviews that really put us in our place.  https://whosrightpodcast.com/ http://whoarethese.com/ https://www.wehavemerch.com/collections/who-are-these-podcasts https://www.reddit.com/r/WhoAreThesePodcasts/  Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the long awaited return of Cros and he does not disappoint. We discuss Amy Schumer's podcast, a show that would be more appropriately titled: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.  We revisit a music/true crime podcast that Cros is responsible for us reviewing in the first place. Then we get to the big controversy of the day - Opie uploading a video to call out Joe Rogan. This guy is the gift that just keeps on giving! Dick Masterson takes shit from a cat lover, Karl buys a slide whistle, and much much more this week! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Oh boy, it's another show featuring nonsensical improv comedy. The epidemic is so big that it has even spread to Canada. Speaking of our northern neighbors, Gavin joins the show from Buffalo. I'm pretty sure that's in Canada.  After we learn that nonsense tickles Gavin's funnybone, we move on to Opie and Stuttering John. This might be our best Opie segment yet. We listen to him interview crazy people (homeless vets, Gary Busey, etc.) while making it all about him. We also highlight the show's transition to a warm and fuzzy podcast. Yuck.  Homework assignment: purchase bumper stickers from Gavin and super cool tee's and sweatshirts here: https://www.wehavemerch.com/collections/who-are-these-podcasts Learn more about your ad choices.

Dick Masterson from the Dick Show joins us this week to talk about cat addicted cat hoarders. These people have obvious mental disorders that they aren't dealing with, and Dick breaks it down masterfully. (see what I did there?) We also chat about Maddox and his latest The Best Debate in the Universe. There's an update on Opie that includes our friends at the Anthony Cumia Show.

This week we review a podcast that was asking for it... literally. Every other week, Doug and Jamie watch a movie from the 80s then record a show explaining the movie scene by scene. It's like How Did This Get Made minus the jokes, insights, celebrities, fanbase, and fun. We also check in on Stuttering John who, on Twitter, threatened to annihilate and destroy us. We hear some hottakes from Opie on the subjects of apple picking and pumpkin picking. Then we check out some voicemails... spoiler, Cros is taking a commanding lead. Perhaps Cobra Commander can mount a comeback.  Support the show by purchasing our amazing merchandise: https://www.wehavemerch.com/collections/who-are-these-podcasts Learn more about your ad choices.

This week Andy and his brother Joe join the show to analyze and review a two part Opie podcast featuring Stuttering John and Jackie the Jokeman. Wow, this line-up would have been great... if this was 1998! Get it? We also play some clips of my appearance on The Dick Show and take a victory lap. We discuss pooping at work and why long emails are paralyzing.  Support the show, get your WATP merch: https://www.wehavemerch.com/collections/who-are-these-podcasts Learn more about your ad choices.

It's been a while since we reviewed an independent podcast that is this bad. It's a true crime show that checks all the boxes: The host reads a wikipedia page? Check. The cohost adds no value? Check. There's an endless rant on Hot Pockets? Yep. Cros is back as we run through a number of important topics including Chip Chipperson stealing my act, Rich Vos at a podcast festival, Opie foreshadowing, and the Howard Stern Show turning gay. We also revisit How Cum and learn why episode 29 was taken off the Internet.  The closing song is called Sexpionage from the album The Isotopes Play Surf Music, available on Spotify, iTunes, or wherever fine instrumental rock is sold.  http://theisotopes.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.
