Today's Oddcast - Lamar & Smokin' Hot Carla (Airdate 8/15/2022)

We had a blast hanging out at LamarBQ during our Happy Hour livestream, and we got a rare chance to chat with Lamar's wife, Carla! We learn that she's basically a clone of Sheri's husband Kevin...minus eating potted meat and watching black & white TV shows in the garage.

Today's Oddcast - Look Upon These Icons and Despair (Airdate 8/12/2022)

What does it take for a human being to become a mythic icon like Marilyn Monroe or Elvis Presley? Talent, beauty, a kind of mystery or charisma that transcends the sort of everyday humanity that marks the rest of us. But even that isn't really enough. Think of all of the big, big stars of your grandparents era that are already slipping into obscurity. Who will the people of the future remember, just 100 years from today? Bob thought he was gonna get to talk about sexy movie stars, but Sheri ambushed him with mortality and that's alway a good time around here.

Today's Oddcast - Oh Wow! Oh Wow! Oh Wow! (Airdate 8/8/2022)

What happens when we die? Most of us don't like to think about it. But that's exactly what we explore in this episode. From hospice workers to researchers, we're learning more and more that certain experiences are universal and that "proof" of the soul might be more obvious than we've wanted to believe. And, we'll wrap up with what has to be the most surprising and epic tombstone any 99 year-old grandmother could ever request: a giant, um, well - you're just gonna have to listen...

Show notes

Today's Oddcast - The Best of the Oddcast - A Very Important Call (Airdate 8/5/2022)

A phone call Bob received from the nicest scammer ever got us on the topic of eavesdropping on conversations in public. There's two types of people in this world: there's Sheri, whose head whips around at the slightest sound of juicy drama, and Kevin, who will burn a hole into the ground with his eyes to avoid looking like Nosey Nelly.

Today's Oddcast - Family Secret - or Family Fiction? (Airdate 8/1/2022)

Every family has them - the stories, the secrets, the legends that get told at holidays and handed down through generations. The thing is, how many of those tales are actually true? And why do we tell them? In this episode, Sheri tells the story of the brother she didn't know she had...a brother who could not possibly have existed. So why the family legend?

Today's Oddcast - Hole Sweet Home (Airdate 7/29/2022)

Doc just became a first-time homebuyer and if you're wondering how it's going, he took a break from patching the large hole in his living room wall to record this Oddcast. Doc's current saving grace is that, unlike Bob, he can be somewhat trusted with certain power tools!

Show notes

Today's Oddcast - Shake the Giglio! (Airdate 7/25/2022)

Our friend accomplice in this thing of ours, Tony G. recently went back to Brooklyn for the annual Giglio Feast. Celebrated every July since 1903, the festa celebrates the life of St. Paolino. It's an epic street festival, with food, music, a parade, pirates, bead tossing - wait. Sounds kind of like Mardi Gras, right? But even Mardi Gras doesn't have the wild craziness that goes down when the crowd shouts, "shake the giglio"! Trust us when we tell you that after you hear Tony's story, you'll be planning your trip to Brooklyn for next July.

Holy Roman Time Machine (Airdate 7/22/2022) Jul 22, 2022

Show notes

Today's Oddcast - Holy Roman Time Machine (Airdate 7/22/2022)

The sense of smell is the strongest memory trigger human beings have. In this episode, Bob talks about finding a tiny church unlocked and upon entering, he's immediately rocketed back in time to his childhood, attending Mass in a Little League uniform. There are just certain places that have that power to transport us. Both Sheri and Max, who also grew up in the Catholic faith, can definitely relate. But listen: Sheri's grandmother was completely wrong about a certain kind of holy snack...

The Best of the Oddcast - Bob's Sack Just Ain't Safe (Airdate 7/15/2022)

There's a gigantic "love sack" in Bob's house. Mary thought it'd be a wonderful idea to buy this bean bag chair, but it quickly became a nuisance that doesn't fit anywhere. Will Bob ever be able to rid himself of this pain in the butt?
