A podcast for quixotic complainers
Our review of 2020's Psycho Goreman, a fun B-movie now out on Blu-Ray.
Our review of 1989's Road House and its analogies to the Iraq War. Also, check out Sean T. Collins' essays about Road house here: http://seantcollins.com/
Quarantine check-in: food, science debate, answering questions on quora.
Our discussion of Highlander & Highlander II: The Quickening
Quarantine update! We talk about the movies we've been watching and also about politics a little.
We talk coronavirus and what we can do from the quarantine zone.
Rigged machines alert! In Texas and probably California. Also a super tuesday recap and looking ahead. Still Berning it up!
Recap of the SC primary and corona virus stuff. More Uncut Gems references and spoilers.
Our 2020 primary outlook. Things are looking good for Bernie, but will new sketchy voting machines stop him? Will Jake's magical stone/tide pods save him? Tune in and find out! Or don't and don't!
We talk about the ongoing escalation to WWIII. 2020 is off to a literal hell of a start.
We talk about slogging through another debate and prince andrew's hubris.
Sorry for the late upload. Here's an episode where we talk about charter schools. Also face mites are great for solidarity!
The bone boys try to get Jake to go to jail or therapy or whatever for his supposed misophonia but fail miserably due to Jake's high self-esteem and lack of need for therapy. Then things start to get interesting as the gang discusses smoking weed in Ancient China before getting into the meat and potatoes here. The meat? WeWork and its dickhead founder. The potatoes? The future of labor in general. Interesting stuff here, folks.
We have special guest "Alex Jones" (any resemblance to anyone else with that name is unintended) on because he was desperate to get his side of the story out there about something. I forget what. Then we give y'all updates on the junk with boeing, bethesda, AOC accusations of anti-semitism, and the upcoming war with Iran. Yay, fun stuff.
It's #spacechat and we had fun with this one! We talk about all kinds of crazy space shit like where to mine, where the life is, and where/how to settle. Enjoy!
We have friend of the pod/intern Jamie on the ep to share his gaming expertise! Basically, the profit motive ruins fun :_( It also ruins livelihoods, both for consumers (children w/ access to their parent's credit card) and workers in the industry. Much ranting occurs. Thanks for subscribing!

We talk aliens (they're real now), brexit (it's maybe real?), and deepfakes (both real and not real). That's all, folks!
We have a productive (and not at all passive aggressive) meeting on ways to improve the podcast. Because at Bonestabbers, we are excuses-free and solutions-driven. We then give our highly original takes on biden's run for president and talk about why we think he's bad (and also why you should think he's bad too). Also, be sure to head on down to Cumming, Georgia if you're looking for some sticky summer fun!
Paper or plastic? Well just plastic apparently. In the ocean that is. I dunno. Yeah well we talk ecological catastrophes, swapping textbooks for facebook, and the neocon war machine setting its sights on Iran. Great, uplifting stuff this time. Not.
Dolphins are crazy beings, yo. So are TIF bullshits for rich people buildings. Also Turkish politics are fucked up, kinda like Amerikan politics. Hot take? You tell us. bonestabbers@gmail.com
Ding da ding da ding. Yeah, that was the news bell. We put on our politicking hats an dive into Jakarta's rapid departure from the land, then cooly destroy libertarian ideology with reason (also logic), and close it out with an update on the u.s. meddling in Venezuela.
We recap the holidaze, talk about boeing making death traps on purpose, and the Zizek/peterson debate plus the Zizek/Robinson post-debate drama. This one was actually kinda good, I think.
Sup. On this ep we give our hawt takes on GoT or is it Lord of the Rings? Then we get all crotchedy and rake shakedy over self checkout. Rants about tech capitalism--you know the drill. Closing this shit out with a plug for Mike Gravel (give him a buck).
We eulogize the demise of human-to-human interaction before delving into the recent controversy at the Southern Poverty Law Center and closing out with some junk about fake meat. Good or bad? You decide. Jk we decide and tell you.
On this episode, we yell about the latest news from our favorite corporate welfare queen, break down why you should not vote for either beto or buttigieg, plus a little bonus rant about Philly's public transit woes.
We talk amazon's tax loopholes and capitalism as kleptocracy, etc. Of course we delve into the conclusion of the Mueller investigation and offer our steaming takes about what it says about the state of the democratic party. We end on a light note, covering the upcoming debate on circumcision between intellectual heavyweights andrew yang and ben shapiro.
We kick off our most unlistenable episode yet with a slew of dick jokes. The best dick joke, however, is cory booker's personality and presidential bid. That's right we get him in this edition of our presidential take down jawn. Also, can games make work fun? No.
Jake complains about work before we talk about an app that claims to save the homeless from starvation. The real meat of this one is in our rebuttal of ubi and andrew yang's platform. Then jokes are made about the rich people getting into fancy schools junk.
Hey folks, quick PSA here that our society's technological prowess has given those in power unprecedented abilities to kill us, track us, and (most importantly) target ads at us. Just fyi there. On a heavier note, we talk about liberals trying to take down Ilhan Omar on some bullshit and tisk tisk the lack of solidarity it revealed among congressional socialists.
Eels, possums, pets? These are discussed. Then we get in deep about some bullshit scam in which people sell each other hydrogen peroxide as a health tonic. Big catch is that it kills you. Also, you'll never believe how these innovators got the idea to stick an ipad on the faces of an economically precarious people so they can be surrogates for the rich. Kinda like when the Marty Funkhouser guy was on arrested development. Plus some goofy shit about an Abe Lincoln statue and fan mail. Blah blah...
What is love? Is it an app like some black mirror shit? Well that's what it's becoming at least. For our valentines day episode, please listen to our lonely grumbles on the entangled affairs of the romance industry and how tech companies are planning a future for us of joylessly having our junk serviced by robots or something. Find out what we do for valentines day, which is when we recorded this.
Hey, doesn't the idea of living in a chaotic, open floor plan, cubicle-bunks sound appealing? No? Well get used to it. Good news is, if you don't like it, you can shit out your own house. A good thing that may happen in the future is that henry kissinger will do, so we do an oldbitchuary for him. Sorry for this description being all over the place--I am very tired. It might make sense if you listen to the episode. Wait, does anyone actually read these? I dunno. Who cares...
Welcome to Bonestabbers! We are a group of friends who enjoy complaining about politics, technology, and the future. One our first episode, we do a little then and now on conspiracy theories, the joyhell of living where you work/working where you live, and then say some shit about walmart taking your health data.
