That's Not How I'd Do It, the podcast where we tackle the most pressing issues in the world, fight over what went wrong, and come up with solutions so crazy they just might work.
What do you give a man who has it all? Trick question! You don't give him anything. You take it away and make him start over, rebuilt in the #SNOTBOYZ image. Look out Elon, we're going to turn you from Bruce Wayne billionaire playboy into George Clooney wearing a rubber nipple suit Batman!

This episode we tackle John Kramer, AKA the Jigsaw killer. Star of Saw, Saw 2, Saw 3, Saw 4, Saw 5, Saw 6, and the titular character in Jigsaw. Here are some choice excerpts from his wikipedia entry: "By Saw III, John is on his death bed and extremely concerned over whether or not Amanda has what it takes to continue his legacy, as the traps she designs are inescapable." "After explaining that this is Jeff's final test of forgiveness, Jeff slices John's throat with a power saw." "Saw IV opens with John's autopsy, during which a wax-coated tape is found in his stomach." "More flashbacks set prior to the events of the first film reveal that John targeted health insurance executive William Easton for one of his games, because he had denied two-thirds of all applicants health coverage, due to a flawed policy, including John himself."

Hello boils and ghouls, and welcome to another episode of Bats Not Howl I’d Boo It, the podcast where we find the spookiest problems in the world today, argue over what went wrong, and make them even scarier! Today, we take tour of a haunted house and see if we can afford the MORGUE-age. If not we may need to look in a more affordable SLAY-borhood! Hee hee hee hee hee!!! This week we'd like to apologize to Sam's brother-in-law, Greg.
The Snot Boyz are back (alright!), and also want you back, as long as you don't go breaking our snotty little hearts by saying bye bye bye. This week we look into what a boy band marketed to 30-somethings would be like. Spoiler: amazing.
Today we celebrate Labor Day by waking up late, dropping our kids off to school, and burning down the Walton family yacht. Happy Labor Day!

Good evening! Do you have a moment to talk about the Haboo, the God with Two Heads? What is that? Pesto? Smells amazing. I sincerely hope I'm not interrupting. I promise that just a few minutes of your time today could change your life for the better. Or it maybe for the worse. It's really not my place to say. Alls I know is that I have this ski mask and this baseball bat here, and it'd be a real shame if I didn't make my conversion quota today. I'm not saying it's gonna turn out bad for you, I'm just saying that misfortune has a real way of following me around. What can I say. It's my "curse" or something. Anyway, I'm gonna practice my swing over here in the living room and you give it some thought. Take your time. I've got all day.

As fortune and misfortune continue their back and forth struggle forever, James decides it's time to set up the Church of Haboo and make a tidy profit, Sam receives an unwanted call, and Jared is...well...Jared. Step forth into part two of our three part groundbreaking series on religion as we discuss what goes into making a Church for Habuism.
In the beginning Haboo created the Heavens and the Earth and a dope casino. Darkness was over the surface of all that crud, and Haboo was hovering over it thinking, "I need to put a buffet up in this bish." And Haboo said, “Let it be lit,” and it was super fucking lit. Lil Pump was playing. People were dabbing. Michael B. Jordan had the Killmonger haircut and was making out with everyone. The opioid crisis was over. There was even free IN-N-OUT. Damn.

I'll be honest with you guys, I just haven't been feeling like my usual podcast-self recently. Same routine week-in, week-out; I don't really like getting beers with the other podcasts after work but I feel obligated to; I might be in a bit of a slump. What's a podcast to do? It's not like I can just pack it all up and discover my true self....or can I?

Welcome to the 90th Academy Awards, where we will bore you between nominees, award the wrong films, and allow people you don't really care about a national platform to thank their parents. Just kidding! We've fixed the Oscars, and without spoiling anything lets just say the Filmuminati is ready to blow your collective viewing minds.
Look at the world. Look at how we've left it. The planet is on fire. Democratic governments have become the lapdogs of the wealthy. The thirst for entertainment has become our only unifying value. Did you think it would turn out like this? Of course not. No one told you life was gonna be this way. Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A. It's like you're always stuck in second gear. When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year, but I'll be there for you when the rain starts to pour. I'll be there for you like I've been there before. I'll be there for you 'cause you're there for me too. In the wreckage of this world, the only thing we have left is each other. God help us.

We put our clones back in the closet so we can take a hard look at the great beyond, and try to figure out what nothingness really is. Space, is it the final frontier, or perhaps a really great place to hold a music festival? Fyre Festival organizers take note.
Uh, so, I was pretty hung over and wasn't feeling up to recording this week, then Sam wanted to get work done, and Jared wanted to get some rest. Long story short, we had our clones do this episode. To be totally honest, I haven't listened to it and have no idea what's on it. Apologies in advance. I dunno. Maybe we just call this one a mulligan. Anyway, we'll be back with the good shit next week. If you have any suggestions for future episodes, go ahead and tweet to us at @thatsnotpod. You can also drop us a line at thatsnotpod@gmail.com. A special "thanks" this week to our guest hosts Sam 2, James 2, and Jard.

A special thanks this week to our listeners for listening, the turkeys who sacrificed their lives for our dinner, and Tom Cruise, because, well, it wouldn't be right to name just one reason.
As everyone knows, the best way to hang out with people who aren't really your friends is to play a drinking game or two so you don't have to talk to them. The #SNOTBOYZ decide to make Sam more fun by coming up with a new drinking game that will make him more pleasant to be around.
B-B-B-Bonsai! B-B-B-Bonus! Here's a parody of the song "All The Small Things" that I just wrote: All the small trees / True care truth brings / I'll take one lift / Your ride best trip / Always I know / You'll be at my show / Watching / waiting / commiserating / Say it ain't so / I will not go / Turn the lights off / carry me home / Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na / Late night / come home / Work sucks / I know / She left me a bonsai tree by the stairs / Surprises let me know she cares / Say it ain't so / I will not go / Turn the lights off / carry me home / Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na / Say it ain't so / I will not go / Turn the lights off / carry me home / Keep your head still / I'll be your thrill / The night will go on / my little bonsai tree / Say it ain't so / I will not go / Turn the lights off / carry me home / Keep your head still / I'll be your thrill / The night will go on / The night will go on / My little bonsai tree If you have any suggestions for future episodes, go ahead and tweet to us at @thatsnotpod.

The Snotboy stared at me, a menacing grin on his face. He turned his head left, then right, then left again. He began to laugh. It was the laugh of someone who'd come complete unhinged. He held a bluetooth speaker in his gnarled hands. He pressed the play button and began to laugh. The theme song began to play. It was maddening. I felt so helpless. There was nothing I could do but look at my paws. If you have any suggestions for future episodes, go ahead and tweet to us at @thatsnotpod. You can also drop us a line at thatsnotpod@gmail.com.

Excuse me listener, if I gave you 20 dollars could you buy me the new J.K. Rowling book? I'm not allowed in the young adult section anymore. Oh and I'd also like an artisan cocktail and an autographed selfie with Jack Kerouac. I love Barnes and Noble, but after browsing some of these innovations, I was all like, Amazon who?

"Rosebud..." Those were the last words on Charles Foster Kane's lips as the snowglobe dropped to the floor, shattering. A tear rolled down his face as he looked upon the crumpled diaper on the fireplace mantle. He let out his last breath. Alone amongst his sculptures in Xanadu... What did that last word mean?

Inconvenient truth? More like a golden opportunity for balloon manufacturers and SpaceX. How are those two things related, and what do they have to do with climate change? Everything, my child. Everything. There are more solutions for the worsening climate than watching Al Gore give powerpoint presentations, and we make some headway on a better way forward. We also invent the future of the economy. All in a day's work. If you have any suggestions for future episodes, go ahead and tweet to us at @thatsnotpod.

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the anarchy from which it came, one nation, under no rule of law, with bluetooth firework speakers for all! This week we lift up the hood on the 4th of July and realize it needs some tinkering. Why do fireworks have to sound like explosions? Why isn't Glengarry Glen Ross considered a quintessential 4th of July film? This week's episode is not for the faint of heart: you're going to be getting a big dollop of reality slopped on top of your back yard BBQ burger.
As always, we're tearing down old boundaries. This week we're tearing down actual boundaries. Talking about walls here people! What are they made of? How big should they be? Is Walmart a wall? What about Christoph Waltz? What is a wall anyway? And what's on the other side? (Spoiler: it's more walls).
