Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear

The Beach Boys did comedy skits apparently youtu.be/AMxLrtQNx6c?...

My mom had this cassette (still does I think) and listened to it nonstop for years, I still have it basically memorized. Best songs: Straight from the Heart, It’s a Jungle out there, faster than the speed of night and obviously Total Eclipse. Huge part of my childhood, amazing voice. RIP

Seattle was electric during the World Cup. To support 750,000 visitors, the city pedestrianized streets, activated public spaces, and removed parking. Rather than revert these changes, city leaders should identify what worked and make those changes permanent. seattletransitblog.com/2026/07/09/s...

Just went to my first show at a comedy club as a customer…possibly ever? 3 takeaways: 1. Emerald City runs a pretty tight ship, very impressive 2. I hate comedy 3. I love comedy!

The most people I’ve ever seen, and it was all for soccer, in the United States of all places

THE TAKING OF ANDRE 123

Last night I got to watch my favorite movie of all time ALL THE PRESIDENTS MEN while munching popcorn at a sold out 35mm screening. Robards KILLED

The Stranger endorsed Pedersen lol he's the type of establishment politician the old Stranger would crawl over broken glass to shit on. And right after abruptly firing their Editor in chief. Guess the debate about their editorial independence under new ownership is officially over

Don’t worry, this ep has plenty of what every podcast listener craves—me talking shit about Janusz Kamiński!

mad how the defining cultural image of Steamboat Willie is Mickey whistling and driving the boat, and not the bit where he plays a pig's nipples as a musical instrument while it shrieks in pain

I know writers who use in media res and they’re all cowards

Those who don’t learn from history etc

One of our best Patreon eps imho

Somebody yelled “Jesus sucks!” at the kooky megaphone Christian guy

Got to watch the Knicks win at the Ballard Art Walk, as one does

I cannot and will not accept that it is known to anyone as “child corn”

New art installation just dropped

There are currently more bills attacking trans youth’s right to play sports across the U.S. than there are trans youth in school sports.

Just watched an ad for swim trunks on insta in which a dude scratch n sniffs his butthole. These are heady days, friends

Seattle's light rail & streetcar lines carried 4.8 million riders in April—a 44% increase above March, after Link Line 2 was extended to connect Seattle & Bellevue across Lake Washington. Seattle's light rail & streetcar lines are now the most-ridden in the nation, above LA, Boston, or San Diego.

DO IT FOR HER

I’m going to keep writing and making videos about this until something goes viral because this shit is *ridiculous*

You can find this episode on Patreon, right next to my bottle of dick cream

walking is low key my favorite activity

You’re it gonna believe this, but we had an extended Simpsons digression

Oaters

This is some truly appalling NIMBY nonsense. Building infill housing is *good* for the environment. It *protects* birds and orcas and salmon. It *saves* forests and trees. The IPCC and Sierra Club have both recognized that infill housing is essential to protect the environment and tackle climate.

Oh boy an entire R rating’s worth of western violence 🙌

Sandwiched right between the establishment of the Qin Dynasty and the invention of the cotton gin

Currently watching BAD GIRLS

Give it a listen, don’t be a company man!

We’re in Tacoma! Anybody have any dinner suggestions?

This might be the high water mark of film and human civilization in general

Do yourself a favor and watch Cyclone! And Blue Thunder! And that’s it

Again this should inspire wall-to-wall media coverage for months. The crowning achievement of the Civil Rights Movement is dead. Black people just lost all of their remaining political power in the South. This is a monumental moment in American history that simply isn't being treated as such.

I am once again urging Hollywood to make FU TOPIA, a mash up where Po the Kung Fu Panda travels to Zootopia city and eventually Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde have to team up again to solve his murder

If you have room in your heart for yet more allegorical dystopian sci-fi, I just finished season 2 of Silo and that show’s really cooking

Come for the raves about CTHD, stay for the dunks on Life of Pi!

Imagine if you were a long haul trucker and someone married you and then after a few years they were like “AGAIN with the truck???” that is squarely on them

Got to uncork my legendary Penny Marshall impresh for this one

Hollywood Homicide not underrated in the least

I am once again asking Sound Transit to handle planned maintenance closures by maintaining service levels on the rest of the network, something the agency really seems to have trouble with.

I buy it

Now that’s what I call a national pastime
