Stop Hating Yourself

Quarantine? ✔️ Microphone? ✔️ Free podcast hosting platform??? ✔️✔️ Both boys?

The Smashing Pumpkins wrote two versions of a single song after Melancholy and the Infinite Sadness and released them as part of the highly acclaimed soundtrack for the terrible film Batman and Robin. The first version, a high-energy rock anthem, won a grammy, and the second, a more downbeat electronica version with different verses but the same chorus, was mostly ignored. This remained the caseuntil it was used in an early trailer for another poorly received superhero flick, Zach Snyder's The Watchmen. At the time the use of a remixed version of a traditional rock song well known as a part of a similarly traditional caped crusader film signaled the deconstruction of the genre that many expected in Snyder's interpretation of the well-loved graphic novel by Alan Moore. The movie struggled with audiences, but the song saw a resurgence of sales of the song, prompting the Pumpkins to bring it back into rotation on their tour that year. In this episode, the boys discuss the end of the podcast, the beginning of a new podcast, or an ending all together. /wiger Like! Subscribe! Rate! Comment!

Carl still can't seem to take care of himself. Seriously, go to the doctor. Catfish takes control of at least a portion of his medication regimen with positive results.

Recorded live at the 2020 Tucson Fringe Fest! Were you there? (The answer is “No,” because I’ve seen the numbers) This special episode focuses on [getting better at accepting] compliments.

The boys talk about experts. No, that's insincere. The boys rant about how prolific supposed experts are on the internet. Remember, Carl and Catfish are NOT EXPERTS and make no claims of expertise in anything. This allows them to rant without being hypocritical. Also, some discussion of people talking about people they knew who killed themselves. Sorry about that.

Carl doesn't get the episode up on time, and Catfish forgives him. Wait, that didn't happen in the episode, it happened well after. OK, they actually talk about mucking through the past while looking through old belongings and keepsakes. Much is learned then forgotten. It's MOVEMBER!

The boys catch up, bemoan their particular situations, and discuss their non-podcast social interaction in a dark room watching... Jokester! Carl has too many opinions, Catfish not so much.

In this episode, one of the boys is stuck on the roof while the other is stuck in the booth.  Which is to say, Catfish is flying so high, but solo. You know how these things go: Catfish stumbles into some situation in which he's unsure what to do and inevitably does either too little or too much.  Today's episode is a short one recorded by Catfish on his phone.  The sound is not good, but maybe worse than last week's car episode?  You can't answer that question until you listen to both episodes.  I don't make the rules.

In an audiographically catastrophic episode, the boys answer a viewer question about rumination while driving back from their trip to Portland.

Carl's back! End of episode description. What? I have to keep going? Well, this is bullsh--Catfish was greatly victimized this week, and not only by his fellow podcast host's absence. The story drags on, though Catfish REPEATEDLY asks if he as to keep telling it, as do his [justifiable] complaints about recording alone last week. And then some fears are mentioned at the end.

This week's episode is a totally normal episode. Nothing out of the ordinary to see here! No, sir, just the standard hijinks. There's the opening and a check-in and then some listener questions are answered. And does this run-of-the-mill episode end with an affirmation? Probably! Just par for the course, as we say here in the business. And by "we," I definitely mean the typical "we."

In this episode, our podcast personalities discover they have them. Personalities, that is. Then they discover the concept of difference, and war is born upon this earth. Or, Catfish reads from work printouts for about 40-50 minutes while Carl drifts in and out of consciousness.

Catfish has a crucial question for Carl about reaching out to old friends on social media. Carl takes this opportunity to tell a lot of irrelevant old stories that stick out in his mind. The thoughtful listener or podcast recapper will pay attention to these seemingly non-sequitur breadcrumbs as they may be seeds for future plotlines should the podcast get renewed for a fifth season. Also, Catfish admits to having friends. On tape. We got evidence! *There was a band called jet set music and they had an album called jet set radio, but they reached an agreement for the xbox game because it had 'future' in its name. Like!

The boys, upon request, talk about death again. Carl cries. A lot. Catfish declares that Carl's perspective on death is reminiscent of "The Tale of the Three Brothers" from The Deathly Hallows. Carl points out that despite his love for Harry Potter, it was heavily cribbed from Ursula Le Guin's Earthsea, but while Potter went to trope-y endings, Le Guin pushed boundaries. Also, Neil Gaiman's Sandman comics beat Rowling to the Death punch. Catfish loses his place in the argument, and it all falls apart. #onbrand Like! Subscribe! Rate! Comment!

Live from The Sad Pad, it’s an issues-plagued episode of the Stop Hating Yourself podcast! That would be technical issues which were experienced during recording as opposed to the cuckoo brain issues that are typically present in every episode. Congratulations to the winner of our name-our-podcast-studio contest! The winner will be notified via certified fourth-rate mail--please be sure to respond and include money for postage so that we can send you a prize. In this episode, Catfish pitches some ideas that he thinks will help improve the podcast. Carl, against his own intuition, listens to the ‘fish. Carl is very sorry about the audio issues. If you make it all the way through this mess of an episode, you may find a few spots where it seems like the "conversation" jumps ahead about 10 to 15 seconds. Carl says that’s on him. The rest of this episode? That is squarely on the ‘fish. For that, Carl does not apologize. There is a bit of sincerity at the end. Maybe it will be worth it? (Probably not) Like! Subscribe! Rate!

The Enterprise-D is docked at Earth Station McKinley, undergoing repairs and refitting following its battle with the Borg. The episode follows the interactions of three members of the crew with their family members.* *The writing team initially looked to extend the Borg-based "The Best of Both Worlds" into a trilogy, but executive producer Rick Berman turned down the idea. So Michael Piller sought to have a plot in which Picard could address the effects of Borg assimilation.

This week begins the break from all-new, all-different Hatred with an almost normal-length check-in intro stuck on to a classic from early Hate. The new 'tent can be identified by its lack of audio fidelity. Carl and Catfish share some highs and lows of their week then we hard-shift to The One about Ramadan, originally released June 25, 2018. Here's the original description (note the improvement on our "like us" paragraph!): Catfish goes deep on his upcoming month of fasting. Carl tries really hard to not be disrespectful.

Carl got lazy while watching an old episode of Babylon 5* and just copied and pasted the following from the episode he was watching while editing: An impressive man in medieval armor arrives on the station, claiming to be King Arthur. Is he the genuine hero, sent by the Vorlons? If not, who is he and what are his secrets? *In his defense, this particular episode of B5 is about guilt and responsibility in the face of making difficult decisions. Metaphors aside, this season of B5 remains one of the best examples of science fiction as allegory for philosophical dilemmas. ** ** The producers apologize for the excessive allegorical nonsense that Carl has been allowed to pursue as the one who "gets" to post episodes. In the future Carl's nostalgic streaming behavior will not be allowed to influence episode descriptions.*** ***JUST BECAUSE YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE BRILLIANCE OF J MICHAEL STRACZYNSKI'S TREATISE ON THE COLD WAR DOES NOT MEAN YOU GET TO MITIGATE THE IMPORTANCE OF THE ROLE OF THIS PARTICULAR NARRATIVE ON OUR CURRENT SOCIO-POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT!!!**** ****Uhm, yeah, maybe stop drinking and go to sleep?***** *****don't (yawn) tell me what to...

This week T Loving joins Carl and Catfish in the studio to ensure Catfish is fully shamed for his lack of participating in the rest of the world. No, but seriously, there's a pretty natural transition from bitching about the week to an actual strategy for good mental hygiene. It still lands in the shaming of the Catfish.
