  • AJL Gets Canceled
    Dec 1 2022

    Friends. It’s time we said goodbye—at least until some Qatari billionaire offers to foot the bill. But first, we need to make an episode so bad that no one will miss us. And also figure out who the biggest loser we’ve ever covered is.

     

    Follow along with our All Time Loser bracket here!

  • #69 - The Stanford Prison Experiment
    Nov 9 2022

    One day The American Journal of Losers will be taught in high school classes as the textbook example of the depths of misery to which human beings will sink, but for now that honor goes to the Stanford Prison Experiment: Phillip Zimbardo's wacky summer camp for wayward boys. 

    Adam McShane, Joey Bednarski, and Cosmo Nomikos are stand up comedians based out of Chicago, IL.

  • #68 - Betty and Barney Hill
    Oct 26 2022

    Eek! The A-SCARE-ican GORE-nal of BOO-sers has taken over once again! This time with strange little gray men from outside this planet who are here to stick to metal objects in our holes. Good thing the three brave hosts of the podcast can be described as “skeptical to the point of being uninterested in this story”.

  • #66 - Centralia, Pennsylvania
    Oct 12 2022

    Lives are risked, secrets are revealed, and friendships are betrayed on this exciting, no holds barred, episode about the near-ghost town of Centralia, PA; whose five remaining residents make their home above a fire that has been burning for over sixty years!

  • #65 - The Black Sox Scandal
    Oct 5 2022

    If you ever hear a bad episode of this podcast, it’s because we made it bad on purpose to get an illegal cut in from some guy named “Money Malone” or whatever; just like the Chicago White Sox did in 1919 when they intentionally threw the World Series to profit off an illegal sports betting apparatus.

  • #64 - Bible Losers Roundup!
    Sep 28 2022

    Check out Cosmo's Music here! 

    No need to put away your Bible after your pre-podcast prayer because this week we're doing a classic listicle style episode about the top three biggest losers in the Good Book! Or at least, the ones that Joey remembers from Catholic school.
