What was it like being on the set of Space Jam?

"Fire tornado" building, special effects, audio-video producer, and podcast extraordinaire Vince "V" Kustush talks shop about working in commercial and live music production, what it's like dealing with drama on Hollywood movie sets, and he shares a few "On the road" adventures. V is also a special effects producer for a plethora of bands here in the Midwest and beyond.

The gang discuss his work with CreatiVity Talkin' Podcast which brings men's mental health and suicide awareness to the forefront of the conversation... Things get deep....

Ravens Corner: Would you rather have the ugliest house in a beautiful neighborhood, or the most beautiful house in an ugly neighborhood?... Allen's answers didn't surprise us.

From there, we ask Vince when he has sucked at drinking and his stories delivered. He talks about a time he tied one on at Mick Fleetwood's Halloween party and his gut took a turn for the worse.

V also shares a story of a time when he threw a guy through two glass doors at a local dive bar in Portland Oregon... What's the bar owner and local sheriff going to say about the situation? Tune in to find out!

As we close out the episode, we talk about how HOA's are always run by angry bitter fascist "Karens" and how future generations are only getting softer which has gone on to make creativity, speech, expression, and comedy much more difficult, if not impossible to perform.

We dive deep into the bars stash with botanist Steve Lederman who also happens to be a heavy metal singer and guitarist.

Do copious amounts of Soco and herb mix? How about ecstacy and habaneros?

It's the best 14 seconds of Steve's life when we play, "You suck at drinking!"
Ever trip so hard that you nearly lose your mind? Steve tells all about his experience with laced "bottle caps."

"HouseCore Horror Fest"

Steve talks music, and his incidental bump-ins with Jimmy Bower from EYEHATEGOD while touring on the road with his old band Kill It Again.

To close things out, the boys discuss the heated topics going on at the Olympics, so that you don't have to watch them, and a drunken summer concert series breaks out in the studio as the boys try to hash out a new acoustic tune for the shows opening.... Where's autotune when you need it!

Chicago Comedian Todd Glover, host of the Stand Up Showdown Throwdown at Second City talks to JD and The Raven about the stray cat mob he's recruiting in his back-yard to stave off the ongoing neighborhood city rat invasion….

"No two shows are the same"…

Glover describes his writing process and explains how comedy is the, "Hardest thing you can ever do," and how much everything's changed both on the road and the stage throughout the years.

Why don't serial killer comics exist?

We discuss dark humor, porn, and how difficult it must be for serial killers at this day and age with so many cameras around. It becomes a true crimes podcast full of mystery as the crew try to unravel the secrets of the "smiley face killer"…

What's required to be the master of 'chompin down handfuls of glizzies?'… JD and Allen speak with the undisputed heavy weight champion of professional competitive eating Patrick "Deep Dish" Bertoletti after bringing the world famous "Mustard Belt" back to Sweet Home Chicago!

Patrick lets us know how to digest everything from 18.5 pounds of blue berries in 8 minutes to dropping record breaking amounts of jalapenos down your gullet in the fastest time possible….

Bertoletti talks about his passion for cooking and obviously the foods he enjoys outside of the professional eaters ring…. Then, are there any professional eaters that can keep up with Patrick's pace at this day and age? He mentions a few...

We then dive deep and ask Deep Dish if he's friends with world famous recently retired, perhaps on a temporary hiatus, (kind of like Jordan in the mid 90's) professional eater Joey Chestnut. He has a few things to say about this.

Also, what's in store for the latest Netflix series featuring The great Japanese Competitive Eating Champion Takeru Kobayashi? You'll just have to tune in to find out!

Allen’s Angry Sports
He’s not happy at all about athletic parents getting their kids into professional sports….. especially, when they have sub par stats. He’s also angry as hell about a trade that’s going to cost his favorite basketball team a lot of cold hard cash.

Summer Bar Softball League
History in the making folks…. The shitty dive bar we hang out at made it to the Bar League Softball Playoffs! We play the riveting highlights with our own dive bar sports correspondent, Chip Pennington, Pemmington…. Penmington….. ahh, who cares. He’s our guy, but we have a sneaking suspicion that he’s played by Raven!

Raven’s Corner
Raven pulls out some cards she bought online that make you answer some really deep questions…. We find out where everyone would go if they were in the witness protection program…. Then things take a turn as we ask what everyone’s death row meal would be…. Then, the crew gets sentimental by sharing one of their favorite memories of each other.

What’s your favorite Dive…. or guy?
We discuss dive bar etiquette, and mention a few places we know where they won’t put up with your profanity, or childish sh*t. Then, Poe ‘the sloppy joe lovin’ sharter’ lets us know who his favorite guy is…… Then he sharts himself….

The Latest Scams – Don’t ‘Scroll’ to strangers
Have you had a random person, that’s not in your contacts, trying to chat you up? There’s watermarked video porn and sound-simulation, that’s meant to trigger your primal desires. If we’ve seen them, you have too! We talk about the latest scams going on via text, in video reels, and through messenger… Don’t talk or scroll to strangers, folks!

David Vancil pours a few drinks with JD to talk about his book “Raging Into The Night, Stories From The Underground“. He shares a few stories from his early 20’s, about being a young man from the Midwest who spontaneously decides to travel and see the world all for the sake of having the experience. His travels bring him to serving drinks to everyone from the elite, to tourists, to regulars in beautiful scenes in Hawaii. The story turns from there to where he wakes up and he finds himself bartending not just on a completely different island, but a completely different country! Tune in to see what happens!
