The Horror Queers are celebrating their 50th episode with a Very Special Episode discussing.....pedophilia? And The X-Files? If that sounds like a weird combination, it's because it is. Luckily, they have Trace's better half (i.e., husband) and X-Files stan Ari Drew helping them through this momentous occasion!What's the best way to reward your fans that have been watching your show for nine years? According to series creator Chris Carter, it's to release a completely standalone film that eschews the series' mythology in favor of trying to earn new viewers! Oh, and let's have very undeveloped and un-nuanced discussions about major issues like pedophilia, stem cell research and head-transplanted Frankenstein monsters that walk some murky areas on transgender issues.Oh, and Trace apologizes in advance for his incomprehensibility in the last half of the episode. He thought it would be a good idea to drink a very large glass of whiskey (on an empty stomach) during the recording. It wasn't.

It’s been two years for Heavy Friending, and Joe and Laura are doing a reset. The two reminisce on old episodes, inside jokes, and all the progress they’ve made towards their goal of of becoming best buds. But with this reset, it’s high time they take their relationship to the next level and say the three little words that can take “friends” to straight-up “besties.”  Become a patron of Heavy Friending! https://www.patreon.com/heavyfriending AND Follow Heavy Friending on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter!  @HeavyFriending everywhere.  Laura: @primoalien Joe: @mrjoebarlow Spotify doesn't allow podcast playlists, but here's what would be on it, if we could make one!

To call your film festival "fantastic" is a bold assertion. But that's what Fantastic Fest has done since 2005. The fest is the "largest genre film festival in the US, specializing in horror, fantasy, sci-fi, action and just plain fantastic movies from all around the world". Heavy Friending hit the red carpet to chat with the filmmakers behind VHYes including Jack Henry Robbins, Kerri Kenney, Mason McNulty, and Rahm Braslaw. Also Laura killed a bird.

In addition to Laura’s really big hat, Austin musician, Spencer Gibb, is on the pod! Spencer discusses his unique childhood and making friends as the son of one of the most famous musicians in the world, Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees.

Believe it or not, Joe and Laura have never talked on the phone. So when Joe feels a little under the weather, he takes a new (somewhat taboo) step in their growing friendship and gives Laura a ring. Joe helps Laura interpret a dream about a woman named Maria WITH SHRIMP FOR EYES, while Laura helps Joe interpret his dream about a warm, squishy hug from Oprah. Toilet flushes, awkward pauses, and a bit of static all flow together in a beautiful sonic landscape that is the modern telephone conversation.

Instead, Joe and Laura are talking vegetables… perhaps, the most controversial veggie of them all: THE BRUSSELS SPROUT.

After the incredible success of last year's hit podcast, Muriel (created and produced by Joe Barlow) we've decided to change the format of the podcast again.

Hey, Jason, is that a plum in your pocket, or are you just happy to see us? Joe and Laura hit the red carpet of the 25th Annual Austin Film Festival on a quest to interview Academy Award-winning actress, Natalie Portman, and podcast legend, Jason Mantzoukas. Laura asks the tough questions: What’s your favorite color? Is that Carhartt you’re wearing? And Joe discovers that Nat-nat Portman is a Beto O’Rourke supporter. But it’s not all Hollywood glitz and glamor when these two podcast hosts experience a soul-crushing defeat. Will they rise to the occasion and become AFF’s red carpet MVPs?

Bodies. We all have them (except ghosts). And yet sometimes we are made to feel that our bodies are too ____ or too _____ or not ______ enough. Well one of the most important job a friend can do is to say you DO look great in those slacks. That's what this episode is all about, honey.

We've decided to change the format of the podcast. Heavy Friending just wasn't working. What is working, however, is the investigative reporter podcast format, that explores one case over multiple episodes. So that is what we did. Joe has already written all 38 episodes of  "Muriel" and looks forward to releasing them. He also looks forward to all the awards that he is likely to win. Thanks for your support and goodbye, Laura.

Is astrology real? Or is it a fun excuse to act like a jerk? Joe and Laura dim the lights and look to the stars for answers to lifes big questions. Your horoscope says if you listen to this episode, you'll be happier and live longer.   Become a Patron of Heavy Friending! https://www.patreon.com/heavyfriending   Follow Heavy Friending on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter!  https://www.facebook.com/HeavyFriending/ https://www.instagram.com/heavyfriending/ https://twitter.com/heavyfriending    

Joe and Laura are on the scene with Austin comedian, Pat Dean. Pat talks about working with friends on creative projects, including his podcasts, "I Learned Nothing" and "The Lanalax Corporation." While Laura tries to coerce Pat into eating a tunafish sandwich from 7/11, Joe works on "Barbra Walters-ing" him with hard-hitting questions. Pat refuses to eat a tunafish sandwich from 7/11, but he, instead, offers a clumsy metaphor for the meaning of friendship and a 6-pack of Lone Star. More information on Pat Dean can be found at the links below! https://www.facebook.com/ShitsGolden/ https://thelanalaxcorporation.podbean.com/ https://twitter.com/patdean https://www.patreon.com/KnightQuest https://www.ilearnednothing.com/ Follow Heavy Friending on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter!  https://www.facebook.com/HeavyFriending/ https://www.instagram.com/heavyfriending/ https://twitter.com/heavyfriending Become a Patron of Heavy Friending! https://www.patreon.com/heavyfriending    

Joe and Laura try to make new friends using Chatroulette, an online chatroom that randomly connects its users. Using their webcam, Joe and Laura make their way through a sea of crotch-shots on the hunt for genuine human connection (and bare penis). These friendly podcasters are not prepared for the cocaine parties, freestyle raps, or furious masturbation sessions they encounter as they search for potential new pals.  Become a Patron of Heavy Friending! https://www.patreon.com/heavyfriending Follow Heavy Friending on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter!  https://www.facebook.com/HeavyFriending/ https://www.instagram.com/heavyfriending/ https://twitter.com/heavyfriending    

Joe and Laura call Joe's ex-girlfriend, Molly, and Laura gets a chance to dig a little deeper into Joe's past. While Molly and Joe have different interpretations of some of the events that transpired during their relationship, they both clearly remember the terrible birthday present Joe gave Molly for her birthday. What exactly are "booty pop panties?" All of this and more on the special Valentine's Day episode of Heavy Friending!

Laura visits Joe's apartment and is afraid of what may be lurking in the shadows. Was there a murder on Joe's loveseat? Did cockroaches lay eggs in his stuff?
