This one went off th rails pretty early on w/r/t its intended topic and never got back on, fully. Billy Ray's original intention, I think, was to set up th parameters of what it means to be th Greatest Of All Time, and den debate various G.O.A.T. candidates over various fields of endeavour. Instead we ended up talking bout Livejournal again 80% of th time, general Internet ethics (10%), Stevie Wonder (5%), and gay filmmakers (5%). Idlewild, Ryan Jackson, Abbas Kiarostami, bell hooks, James Booker, Los Bros Hernandez, Alison Bechdel, Akira Kurosawa, Sergei Parajanov, Persepolis, and Charlie bit me are namedropped in passing. We are joined this week by Rena J of el jay fame, who was gracious enough to join us on v. short notice and ended up being our first ⚡solo⚡ guest in many moons after our other guest passed out drunk
Listen close for th G.E.O.A.T. (greatest ending of all time)

00:00:00 "Sir Duke" performed by Stevie Wonder
00:03:52 Nominal attempt to stick to a topic | blah dee blah dee blahHH | etc etc etc
01:59:38 Bonus Track: a great way to start a mixtape or end a podcast
Went ahead and annotated this one, since it's a Saturday a.m. & I'm ill & industrious, and idle hands are th devil's playthings. My initial idea was to encourage discussion bout how beauty can be this world's most powerful idea -- that, Helen aside, human people are launching 1,000 ships every hour on behalf of their versions of beauty -- that, @ core, most fights can be reduced to incompatible visions of what beautiful means and what ugly means. That discussion never happened in an explicit way here, though it is nestled incognito under th discussion that did happen. Billy Ray Stupendous & I could not be more pleased w/ th results. We are joined this week by two luminaries of th el gay planet -- Jinx Malone and Mister Eden -- whose imprints on my own consciousness are deep not due to in-yr-face proselytizing, sensory bombardment, or even daily familiarity -- both remain, to my mind, foreigners who vacation in whatever country mine is -- but rather through th consistent, insistent, sneaky internal logic(s) of their worldviews ⚡⚡⚡⚡
This is th one you been waiting for. By "you" I mean "Kathleen O" because she's on this one. It's bout serial killers. I play th curious novice; Kathleen & Billy Ray Stupendous play th seasoned veterans showing me th ropes. Th ropes, th knives, th axes, th guns, th fire, and th bare veiny hands
Kathleen took copious notes for this one. Keep an ear out for some of history's most famous -- Jeff Dahmer, Ed Gein, Jack th Ripper, John Wayne Gacy -- as well as lesser-known pop anti-stars. Billy and I share th same favourite killer, it turns out 👊✊✂💀🍀🔫👻

00:00:00 "Red Right Hand" performed by Nick Cave & th Bad Seeds
Look, you're into Livejournal or you're not, and it's not anyone's job to sell it to you or defend it from its detractors. What Billy Ray Stupendous and I wanted to allow ourselves w/ this episode was a bit of navel-gazing, a bit of choir-preaching, and a bit of self-back-patting, in accordance w/ El Jay's charter as set forth by th one true god Brad Fitzpatrick in 1999. Not sure if that stuff happened. Not sure what's on this podcast. We were joined by last-minute surprise guests Asphalteden, Herrdoktor, Horty_pie, and Koala_infestation. Clocking in @ something like two hours and a quarter, this one's for th frenz & fagues
Table of contents:
00:00:00 "Th Anthem of Fuck You Crew" performed by David Fox
00:02:24 ??????CONTENT OF SOME SORT
02:04:24 Bonus Track: "Clouds across th Moon" performed by RAH Band
It is my fault that our podcast disappeared, and now it is my fault again that it is back, and it is especially my fault that I have little recollection about what is in this episode of the podcast nor enough desire to rediscover what is in it before posting. What is known: Billy Ray Stupendous and I were joined by our roommate and lifelong New Orleans resident Kathleen O and th world-famous-in-New-Orleans DJ Pompeii (to whom you can tune in every Monday from noon to 2:00p Central on WTUL), to discuss the profound differences between being local and being a carpetbagger in America's greatest city

00:00:00 "Here Come the Girls" performed by Ernie K Doe
There were times in this podcast when th dead air stretched out before us like a highway cutting through th Canadian wilderness. Billy Ray Stupendous and I were cool w/ it as we emulated th chillness of our esteemed Canadian guests, Toronto's Phil B and Winnipeg's Michael Dwilow, who hold court on th greatness, th bashfulness, th emotional weirdness, and th relative invisibility of th land known to people in my neighbourhood as "Canadia". Listen as Billy and I indulge in a nostalgic callback to our shared coming-of-age to Allan Moyle's Pump Up th Volume (1990). (Yes, Moyle is Canadian.) Learn th fate of th Loyalists from th American Revolution. Slap yr own head in astonishment as one of th world's most beloved superheroes is outed. Picture Chester Brown's m-bation technique. Surrender to th feeling that something's off about a famous person you admire -- that's right, it's because they're from Canadia

Th good news is that th ASMR-esque aspects of our podcast are undiminished (or augmented, possibly) by crappy audio quality. Th bad news is that it is hard to hear what our guests are saying, @ times. Consider listening on headphones as Billy Ray Stupendous and I bring together two giants of th troll community, Doc Carnage and Hooper X, for an informal (and barely audible, @ times) chat about th evolution of yr favourite addiction: social media. Play that game where you eavesdrop on somebody's call and try to guess what th person on th other end of th line is saying. You'll be rewarded w/ @ least 6 or 7 minutes of penis talk, and th birth of perhaps th strangest presidential ticket in history
