Eff This Week

In our final podcast, we send Eff this Week out in style with tales of video game character coitus, including Super Mario Brothers’, um, brotherly love; pummeling Princess Peach, and Juan-as-Lego C3PO putting the beat down on Mass Effect bigot Ashley Williams. Chuck plies Siri with his best Casey Kasem impression, Juan does the best [...]

Another week, another effing! Audra gets us off on the right foot with (yet another) pee story, and we spend the rest of the ‘cast desperately trying to stay away from Twitter and the political debates.

We talk Big Bird, clone debaters, and how a legitimate deficit will shut itself down, plus wonder how anyone could still be “undecided” at this point. Audra talks Sports, giving props to Detroit’s triple crown baseballer Miguel Cabrera, and Juan and Chuck debate the real importance of Cobie Smulders to the Avengers. We complain about [...]

Eff This Week #50, Recorded Live on Sept 27, 2012.

Audra’s unfortunately absent, having been pulled away to an impromptu work meeting, so Chuck and Juan take the time to catch up. There’s more discussion of skinny jeans and pants in general, Juan reveals his disturbing habit of watching “Mayday” in the weeks leading up to a flight, and Chuck finally gives us his review [...]

This week we kick off with some fresh, SFW Lebowski quotes (“I’ll sell your car for a thousand dollars”). Chuck crushes on Moaning Myrtle and explains why skinny jeans are the root cause of all the world’s problems. Juan tells of the medieval hellmouth well discovered under a living room floor in England and figures out a way to [...]

We confuse everyone by Effing an hour early, but hey! — We’re caffeinated and awake! We talk about what kind of otherworldly services are still legal to sell on eBay, reminisce about stumbled-upon movies that made a difference to us at significant moments in our lives, and cringe at memories of sitting through graphic movie [...]

It’s another week to be effed and another distracting new setup! Having ditched uStream for YouTube, Chuck, Audra, and Juan attempt to send video to the chat room, but quickly lose focus and descend into camel impressions, head-crushing and bird-flipping! Also, we do a Stargate-themed Fight, Frak and Bodyswap.

This week we Eff on a temporary YouTube channel since UStream took a big UDump. And in “guess-which-is-true” trivia, we dig into the weirdest parts of Audra’s childhood, including her crush on pre-scary Kirk Cameron, the first rap she ever learned and performed at age eight — with the lyrics “lookin’ at the girl on [...]

After some technical interference and a brief Spanish-language conversation about DP, Audra kicks off the ‘cast with more gross stories involving exploding commodes, mysterious hands poking through bathroom stalls, and strangers palming her nozzle. And Chuck and Juan team together to compete against the chat room (including no-bull Trek master Thotfullguy) in a round of [...]

This week, Juan Skypes in to the show from Anaheim, California, the secret breeding ground of Canadian tech wizards. And we put Disney characters into coital scenarios, including particularly vivid images of Pinocchio “inside” the whale, Aladdin’s monkey-bro Abu, and a sexy teapot from Beauty and the Beast. Come join the madness!

This week we Frak, Fight, and Bodyswap with the cast of Scrubs, entering into some disturbing scenarios with Snoop Dogg Attending, The Janitor, Gift Shop Girl, and Dr. BeardFace, among others. We debut our Google-Free-Five: Space Trivia theme, in which the chat room owns us with trivia we thought we could answer sans electronic appendages. And [...]

We talk science news, including the discovery of a 47-million-year-old fossilized pair of turtles in flagrante delicto and a shark at a Dubai resort who apparently discovered the secret of underwater parthenogenesis. And in this week’s round of One True Thing, we Do It Right this time! We find out who Audra made out with in [...]

Chuck and Audra tell horror stories of lumpy bums, wiggling peen, and other corporeal unpleasantries of the otherwise-awesome San Diego Comic-Con, and cover con highlights from Nerdist, Geek & Sundry, Archer, and more. And Juan kicks us off with a return of Frak, Fight, or Bodyswap — Robots and Droids edition!  

Juan, Chuck, and Audra debut a few interactive games with the chat room, including the Tell ‘Em Steve-Dave-inspired “One True Thing” (and DP reminds us we’re doing it wrong), Audra’s guess-the-fake-novel from a slew of racy, best-selling vampire titles, and the wildly successful and intimately revealing Frak, Fight, or Bodyswap (Star Trek edition). Game sets included Juan’s [...]

It’s camping madness! Juan reminisces on a campsite encounter with an adolescent bear. Audra leads a futile attempt to describe to Chuck what camping is like when it’s NOT sweltering, infested with bugs, and geographically fugly. Chuck holds firm to his “I haaaad a baaaad experience” regarding camping in Texas. And the chat room joins [...]

Recorded LIVE, from the PAST! Audra talks 1930s Shanghai hedonism and pooping behind cars. Juan tells the Canadian version of the War of 1812 and plays with the master faders. Chuck digs on MiB3’s Conchords link and confesses his lifelong wish for everyone to “do me!” when they sing the Name Game. And the chat [...]

Yeah, we pick on Audra a bit, kidding her about hating everything. This is funny primarily because Audra does not, in fact, hate much of anything. Your hosts this week: Audra, Chuck, and Juan.

After a break for some academic travel, Chuck and Audra return to join the ever-podcasting Juan for a celebratory welcome-back cast. Ok, so really this is just a normal everyweek Effing. And we totally forgot what the eff we talked about, so we made up this title and description. Sue us. (Or don’t. Please.) Your [...]

Juan shares his preferred junior high fast food order. Chuck shares a lame-ass Classic Mac gaming experience. And we discuss online friendships and how they work. (No, really. See? We can be deep sometimes!) Your crew this week: Audra, Chuck, and Juan. (Heh. Hehehe. I said “deep.”)

Audra tells us about her bookstore massage. Unh huh. Your crew this week: Audra, Chuck. and Juan.

Audra takes center stage this week, making the show totally worth a listen despite the other hosts’ lameness. Your hosts this week: Audra, Chuck, Audra, Juan, and Audra.

This week needed especially specially effing, and as usual, we’re there to eff it up right. Your crew this week: Audra, Juan, and Chuck.

If there ever was a week that needed Effing, this was it. So we effed it. We effed it all up. Your crew this week: Audra, Juan, and Chuck.

Guess what stupid game young Chuck used to play with his geek friends? On second thought, don’t. Consensus says it’ll bore you to tears. Your crew this week: Audra, Juan, and Chuck.

That’s right. We celebrate Nyan Cat’s first b-day with some serious nyanitude. It’s nyaneriffic. Nyantacular. Your hosts this week: Audra, Chuck, and Juan. Nyan.

Ever been to Pigsknuckle? Yes, you have. But you probably missed the missile. Your hosts this week: Audra, Chuck, and Juan.

Your crew this week: Audra, Juan, Chuck, and about 50 others fresh from the hotel bar just around the corner from the 2012 GWC International Meetup podcast room. We’re all a little punchy, but hey — it’s the meetup.

Wow. Just when I think a podcast title couldn’t get more apt. Your crew this week: Audra, Juan, and Chuck.

Yeah, so that happened. In the words of some famous showmen, this episode has proven very effective at offending the easily offended. So if you’re one of them, don’t listen. Favorite chat room quips: “Only the penitent man will pass” and, of course, “THAT’s the foreskin of a carpenter.” Your crew this week: Audra, Juan, [...]

Audra returns this week, and we Eff it up good. I’d tell you all about the high points of this podcast, but I had so much fun that I forgot to take notes. Doh. I do remember some, um, interesting discussion about Greedo. Also, I’m pretty sure we had our biggest turnout ever for the [...]

To try and make up for the sadness of losing Audra to work-related scheduling issues this week, we offer to answer any questions the chat room poses. And pose questions they do. Your hosts this week: Juan and Chuck.

Juan tips us off to an Apple/Foxconn protest in Grand Central Station that drew only a handful of people. Then again, it’s not like they scheduled the protest somewhere easily accessible. Or easy to find. Doh! Your crew this week: Audra, Juan, and Chuck.

Hammer? Your crew this week: Audra, Chuck, and Juan. That’s right, the Juanster is back. Hey — don’t forget to email or tweet us your topics for discussion. Cause, you know, we’re too effin lazy to come up with our own. Ok, sometimes we come of with them. But they’re lame. Well, lame-er. Whatever. I’ma [...]

This week, Chuck rants. And rants some more. And is a general butthead. Yeah, he’s often that way, but tonight’s special. Maybe Juan will be back next week to shut him the hell up. Your crew this week: Audra and Chuck. But sadly not Juan. (Please come back next week, Juan.)

Damn I love Eff This Week. I learn something every single week. Like what “closet full of toasters” means. And what most women think of Mr. Cumberbatch, owner of the most British name in all existence. Your crew this week: Audra, Juan, and Chuck.

You know what we should do next week? We should take questions. That sounds like fun. The chat is always hoppin’ (Effin?), so why not? Think up your favorite questions to ask us and dump ’em in the chat next week and we’ll answer our faves. (And yeah, that’s what you get for reading the [...]

Yeah, I totally forgot what this podcast was even about. Oh wait. Eff This Week is about NOTHING. That’s right. We’re about NOTHING, Lebowski. NOTHING! Your crew this week: Audra, Juan, and Chuck. (I do remember that this was a fun podcast, though. Really.)

It’s a party. You’re invited. Or you were. If you were there. If not, you’re invited next week. Ish. Yeah. Your crew this week: Audra, Juan, Chuck, Topgun, and Lady D. I’d tell you all about the great highlights and such, but, well, I didn’t write any of them down and I’m lazy. Anyway, as [...]

It’s our penultimate pre-holiday hangout, and we’re predictably punchy at the beginning, finally trailing off toward our inevitable crash. The chat was quite engaged this evening, and as always we thank everyone for sharing a bit of the evening with us. Your crew this week: Audra, Chuck, and Juan.

The semester’s over. Work is turned in. Work is graded. Audra has good news. Chuck has good news. Juan has news. We eff it all. This week’s crew: Audra, Chuck, and Juan. (That’s right: Audra’s back!) Seriously, though, we had a great time blowing off steam from a rough week. Hope you enjoy, too. Also: [...]

That’s right. Audra’s week was so effed that she didn’t even have time to Eff it. In her absence, your hosts this week (Chuck and Juan) ramble about Corner Gas, which you can think of as Canada’s Seinfeld. We also talk Archer and Stargate. And GWC uber-producer Solai joins us for a quick ten minutes [...]

Effin’ the post-fake-Thanksgiving Thursday, is this week’s crew: Audra, Chuck, and Juan. Highlights: The chat room tells us about the fabled gingerbread donut. Chuck wonders why Siri doesn’t understand stardates. Non-Texans discover that it’s actually cold in texas. Audra tells a one-time-at-band-camp story. And we profess our continuing love for Scrubs.

Kidding aside, congrats to Casilda who successfully defended her dissertation the day we Effed — and joined us to celebrate. Your Eff This Week hosts this week: Audra, Chuck, and Juan. Highlights: We talked diabeetus. And we blasted out top ten lists based on chat room suggestions, including our ten favorite SG-1 episodes, top ten [...]

It’s Effin time again, and we rise to the occasion. Ish. Ok, we show up and do a podcast for whatever that’s worth. This week’s Eff This Week crew: Audra, Chuck, and Juan. Highlights: It’s a PODCAST! Ok. Seriously, I should crowdsource this. Help me out. Tell me what this podcast was about in comments, [...]

Eff you! All of you! Your Eff This Week crew this week: Audra, Chuck, and Juan. And yeah, we pretty much phone it in this week. Hell, Juan LITERALLY phones it in. Ok, he Skypes it in. Whatever. Either way, it’s a laid-back eff, but fun none the less.

Yep, it’s that time of week again. The time where we eff. We eff it all up, you know, with Juan live in the studio for one last time this year. Your Eff This Week crew this week: Chuck, Audra, and Juan. Highlights: We’re here. Yeah, you heard me.
