As we wrap an epic season 1 of AYW, we pause to reflect on the work we've done here and the friends and lovers demolished in our wake. To make an omelet you must break a few eggs and to make an award-winning pod you must break a few hearts. What a ride it has been and if you haven't been with us from the start, you're probably pretty lost. I mean, it's episodic. Like serial. Sometimes when I have the odd bowl(s) of cereal I'm like, “cereal is super dope.” Apropos of nothing, we've decided to drop some special lil bonus nugs as we prep season 2, prepare a massive merch drop, finish the editing on our YouTube pilot, and sign the contract on our NBC deal. It's no easy task wrangling flamingos as any flamingler knows: they get real rowdy and try to flock your beak. Now cozy up and say it with me: Key Bank: Stick it in us.
Mav giveth and Bombdaddy taketh away. A yin and yang for the modern world, the AYDub Podcast is a beacon for light and truth in a world of darkness. Sort of darker than Christian bale's Batman but not as dark as emo vampire Batman… more in the middle of those two. Not cartoony like keaton's Batman cause this is serious high-brow stuff. No games.

Had a dream I confronted jimmy page for makin' moves on Mrs. B. Daddy. Turns out, he's a wiry, wily old dude who slipped my jab and broke my nose with a head butt. Talk about adding injury to insult! I screamed “How many more times? Treat me the way you wanna do?” And he put a mortal kombat finisher on me which was a Les Paul swung with such force as to remove my head from my neck. Long story short, if there's anything to learn from this pod, it's not to trifle with 1/4 of Zep.
Apologies in advance to all broads, babes, and toots'. This ep is heavily inflected with satire. A retraction will be forthcoming.
Once ate over 30 burger week burgers. Believe it or not, I am a man, not a god.
If you see Jimmy Page around, tell that white-chest-bush May queen I gotta whole lotta spring clean for him right here. I'm gonna when the levee break his face. I'm not foolin', I'm gonna send him back to school. Boutta put a bustle in his hedgerow, be alarmed. I could make zep puns all day, but it's time to ramble on…

Ibiza is a Spanish island that is the third largest of the Balearic Islands, which constitute an autonomous community of Spain in the Mediterranean Sea. While Ibiza is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is particularly famous for its nightlife in clubs and on beaches. It is one of the most highly touted summer club scenes, with its specially tending towards electronic dance music. Ibiza's official name is in Catalan and is Eivissa, but the island is better known around the world in its Spanish name, Ibiza. The name Ibiza derives from the Arabic word Yabisah, which in English translates to "landward". The correct pronunciation of Ibiza in Spanish is ee-bee-thah. The "I" is pronounced with an -ee sound like the word "bee" and not like the word "eye", as is often pronounce by British English speakers. It is also worth noting that the "i" is not pronounced with an "ih" sound, like the word "invisible", as is sometimes heard by American English speakers. The second part, -bee, also pronounces the "i" with an "ee" sound. The last part, -thah is pronounced with a "th" like in the word "the" and not with a "z" sound like "zebra". However, it is important to note that is the common pronunciation in Spain; other speakers in Latin America, for example, will pronounce the "z" with an "s" sound, making it ee-bee-sah.
Is there another sandwich that rides the line of great/gross like the BLT? Throw these three ingredients together with care and precision and you've got a masterpiece. Fresh, hot bacon, crisp lettuce, ripe, thin-sliced tomato: boom. Epic. Ever bought one at a diner or somewhere where the effort put into this sandwich was subpar at best? Wilted lettuce, maybe, or a too fat slimy tomato? Ugh, no - it's the worst sandwich ever. Not even the bacon can save it. Not enough Mayo or too much? Now you've got a dry bread lettuce disaster or a mushy tomato custard. I believe the only way to go about it is at home. I'm sure you can go to some fancy lunch spot and pay $20 and you'll get a decent BLT but the cost sinks the enjoyment returns. Home is best, with a fresh loaf of sourdough that you slice yourself. It should take about 45 minutes to make, as lightly toasting the buttered bread on the stove can take some time and care. Romaine hearts are nice. Buttered lettuce from TJ's also works. Bacon is crispy, just to the left of burnt. Tomato. This is the secret…. THIN-SLICED heirloom. Or a roma will work. If you slice to thick, you got too much skin in your bite, plus it makes your sandwich fall apart. You want the taste of the tomato juice more than the actual texture of the tomato. Mayo?

Somewhere in the whirlpool of humankind's collective conscience there is a slipstream that spirals down into the dream sinkhole. Somewhere to the left of an alphajerk, some swirling memories and energy and past life regressions congregate in a room where we dream separately together. If you've also had a dream that took place in the upstairs corner of the garage northwest flea market, e-mail us at anythingyouwantpod@gmail.com and tell us about it.
What a momentous occasion. Celebrate this double-digit pod with your friends and family and a nice Greek rosé, won't you?
As we present the eve pod to double-digits we reflect on where we've been, where we're at, and where we're going. We were but two kids with a dream, reviewing anything we wanted with no strings attached. Now, present-day, we still review anything we want, but with the added pressure of media speculation and critique of our critique which adds pressure and stress to our once pleasant pastime. As with anything, once money gets involved, things get complicated. Several of our family members had to be cut out of our lives. It's sad. Tragic, even. But they wouldn't stop asking us to review Barbasol shaving cream with the Jurassic Park themes on em. I won't tell you again: it's the same stuff, just has dinos on the label. Doesn't “smell like t-Rex”, or “foam up like a brontosaurus”. That last one doesn't even make sense? How does one foam up like a brontosaurus? Look: it doesn't even matter and thanksgiving is cancelled. Now then, bow your heads, thank your gods, as we bring you more “anything you want” pods…
“What do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, I'm gonna walk out into traffic real quick.” “What do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “What do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, I'm gonna scream into the void real quick.” “What do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “What do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, I'm gonna stare into the sun real quick.” “What do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, What do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, I'm gonna sit still and ponder the vast universe and all it's wonders real quick.” “What do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?” “Idk, what do you want for dinner?”
IMITATION IS THE SINCEREST FORM OF FLATTERY THAT MEDIOCRITY CAN PAY TO GREATNESS. - OSCAR WILDE We've reached an upper echelon of this pod game where you start to wonder who your friends are. Like, are you really our friend or are you tryin' to get your mom's boyfriend's band reviewed on the pod? We're all just squirrels trying to get a nut but stay away from our massive nut, ok? Have I noticed an uptick in review podcasts since our own went hyperbolic? You bet. Whole lotta apin' goin' on. But can you nail our precise delivery? Our unparalleled sponcon? The love we have for our mothers? Prob not. Idk. Maybe. Who's to say? Anyway, on with the show. In today's ep we tackle some pop culture in the form of a current audio recording. I'm gonna be honest with you, I had plenty of time to listen to the record in question before reviewing, but, and I'm being honest here, I didn't want to. Maybe time will tell and circumstances will warrant a review of the review, a recant or even a double-down. I'm not above admitting mistakes or greatness, whichever comes first. We are but humble servants of public service.
The sweet spot of speed lives between 25-30 mph. This is scientifically known as cruising altitude. The A.Y.Dub Crew, aka FBB, aka Mingo's Dingos, aka Eeyore's Sad Plants, aka The HomeAways, refer to this space in time as the cruising attitude. It's not for the feint of heart. It's not for the weak of spirit. It's not for those with a poor constitution. It requires a rare finesse of skillful deliberateness of the sort few can manage, and those that do lean towards Greek rosé. Is this pod description just a brag-fest about some cool bros bike gang? Yeah. ‘Sup?
Today's review comes via request from listener Justin Shoemaker who, incidentally, is the last and greatest known cobbler in the Pacific Northwest. A lost art in these modern times, Justin was taught cobbling by his great great grandfather, who, after the war of 1812, settled in the greater Vancouver area to have babies and make shoes. After several babies and even more shoes, Grandpa Maker-a-shoe began codifying his shoe-making style and eventually shortened his surname to Shoe-a-Maker. His pointy-toed style were all the rage in the roaring ‘20s, as bootleggers and flappers alike flocked to the flamboyant trend. Baby Shoe was a quick study, his first word being “brannock”. He was first in his class at S.H.I.T. (Shoe Horn Institute of Technology) and quickly made his own name in the shoe game with his invention of the sole. Hard to believe folks wore shoes without them for so long, but this revolution in footwear proved Shoemaker's genius and he promptly retired and raises alpacas in Battlecreek and makes beer out of their milk. It's quite gross. Raise your IPAlpaca to Shoe with this dedicated ep of A.Y.W.
There's no heroes in this game. No caped crusaders, no capes, no crépes, even. Even the best intentions pave the road to hell. Even the good die young. Even the best of us spill rosé on the couch and great-Grammy's afghan. Nobody's perfect. Communication is a tricky business. That's why, in todays ep, we review slight miscommunications between spouses. We discuss the differences in shades of blue. Is light blue only “light” in relation to a darker blue? If Cobalt squared up against Cerulean would we kick it out of bed for eatin' crackers? We go deep on sink sides: what is “right” and what is “left”? My left or your left? Our left or the sink's left? We discuss the intricacies of: Have worse things happened? No. But could they?? Probably not. Some things in life are unforgivable.
In todays episode we review expensive champagne consumed at a company party. One has to wonder where the line is between work friends and friend friends and when the time is right to let your hair down and max out the 3DL*. Much has been made of the 3DL and it's importance in society and polite culture at large. Some have suggested the designation to be 3DM*, but this lives in a world of semantics too broad to approach here. The important thing is to maintain an order of professionalism and dignity and keep one's wits about him/her. Has exceeding the 3DL proved exceptions to the rule? Of course. Summer nights are long and who wants to see them end? 3DL is more of a guideline than an unbreakable law—a lifeline to tomorrow you: a happier, brighter one. Ulysse Collin champagnes are highly- sought, exquisite, small-batch wines. Today we review the Le Jardin 2015 cuvée. We discuss the aromatics, and how the soils of soft clay and silex topsoils over limestone add to the terroir of the vintage. It's been too long since I touched grass. Hit us up if you got it clean. *3 Drink Limit **3 Drink Maximum
I tell you what: I love me some baseball. When you get past the surface levels of hitting a ball and running bases, a deep pool of history and time suspension opens up to you. Baseball has a black hole effect that if you open your third eye to, time and space become relative and you are able to exist outside the realm of mortal concerns and the bounds of western calendar month/day/hour/minute divisions are but a barrel of monkeys in an ocean of orcas. America's pastime does pass time and yet somewhere in the 6th inning a realization that no time exists but only love for your family and friends and the existence you share together. Heady Topper is a cult favorite beer from Vermont meant to be drunk from the can, preferably at a high-school baseball game while sitting in the grass. In todays ep, we review the beer itself, the history of the lauded brewery, it's ties to craft beer culture, and the re-emergence of the mustache in pro baseball. Shave all but the lip, sip, and blip out…
In today's review, we tackle the biggest movie of the summer, né year, né life: Top Gun Maverick. We go in-depth to discuss the intricate details of the film, the metaphors to life and aging, to love and laughter, to space and time. Is Mach 10 a point in time or a space in time? Does Maverick break the speed record or discover time travel? When Tommy cruise hits max speed does he reach out and touch matthew mcconaughey in the movie Interstellar? Is he wearing the same watch? Can he stop the dust bowl from ruining the planet by destroying the Russians/Koreans/terrorists uranium bunker? We discuss the intricacies of offense/defense beach football, how to score and deflect simultaneously. How using Pam is the best way to get a tan, and how living in an airplane hangar makes the ideal bachelor pad. Join us for this intense exchange of ideas, won't you?
