Run The Bit: Recent Episodes
Joey Leon & Mikey Almost
Due to overwhelming demand, our first guest returns to the podcast! Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome back CZR!
Well, the carnales are out of ideas. Not a single worthy bit came to mind, so we had to wing an episode. Bear with us, we malmost had to do a clip show!
They decide to have an adventure! Inside their minds and showcasing their talent? No, silly! By going outside and seeing what's out there. They spot cops, circus performers, cops, children playing, cops, aliens, cops, drones, cops, and more cops! Maybe Mikey uses magic. Maybe not. Join us!
Somehow, someone got passed our security team and onto the podcast. Ladies and Gentlemen: CZR!
The guys go over what’s HOT in pop culture right now to stay trendy. Mikey doesn’t get it. Welcome back!
Come with me and you'll be In a world of pure imagination! There's a lot in this episode, folks! Really was supposed to be about the movies, but you know how the carnales roll. Join us!
Studio 105 is back in working order, but Joey and Mikey are having a disagreement. It all boils down to one thing: what's your zodiac sign? Joey believes this is simply a way to get a read on people and tries to prove his point in cool, calm, and collected manner. Mikey disagrees and tries to prove his point by yelling. In the end, they may still disagree, but agree on one thing- dionsaurs rule!
We've decided this is not a waste of time! In honor of that, our talent, and our genius, enjoy this second episode!
Here it is folks! Th episode you've all been waiting for. Why is that? Because we're answering all YOUR questions! Which begs the question: Are you really only listening for yourself? Does it really matter what we're saying? Are we wasting our time? Well, enjoy, I guess.
Did you know his favorite band of all time is AFI? Well, if you've known him for more than 5 minutes you do. He's worse than when a vegan hasn't told you they're vegan in 10 minutes. Well, Joey opened the flood gate and now he wants you all to go along for the ride as well. Join the carnales as they try to decide which is better for a band: consistently touring and always being there for people, or going away for a hiatus before your eventual return? In the words of the poet, one Davey Havok - "Oh!"
The sexy beasts are back, baby! Your favourite Bit Boys are talking wrestling just in time for Wrestlemania!

We promise to ignite you, excite you, to delight you, and we invite you to strap on your seatbelts, ease the seat back, click it into gear, and go into overdrive because from this point forward it's 100% entertainment! 100% electricity! 100% Run the Bit!

I know this may be hard for you to believe and all, however you only exist because we allow it. Devouring the very last invention man would ever need. But, exponential growth is a frightening thing. Farther, O' Father I stare at my reflection, have I lost that boy inside? I'm way up, beyond the reach of mortals I shed my human side. Engineer the wires to your brain, architect a code so you won't feel the pain. With your family by your side and vigor in your eyes, live forever. Final paradigm.
You do know this is just a simulation, don't you?
Thank you for joining us, earth brethren! We are so happy to finally be able to share our existence with you all! We want to give Mikey Almost our sincerest thanks for being the first to know of our existence. As a great one of your men once said, “One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Listen up so you all know what to expect in the coming months. Be one of us!
Mikey finds out what happens when you try and Joey can't hide his slack-jawed disbelief! The lesson here is simple: never try. Join us!
It's Valentine's Day, so love is in the air and Mikey is traversing the dating world again. What better way to look for the meaningful things that lead to a lasting relationship than asking Joey, Run The Bit's the resident relationship expert. Somehow, it all leads to Jeff Jarrett, ovens, and foot peels. Join us!
Even after all this time, the carnales keep having "you too?!" moments and realizing maybe they're not so different after all. Join us!
On a very special episode of Run The Bit, the carnales finally ask the age old philosophical question: why are we here? Answer: we are all here to do what we are all here to do. They unexpectedly get serious about life, ask about mortality, and wonder what is the greatest power in the cosmos. After all is said and done, this journey brings them to one simple truth: live in the moment. After all, it's hard not to feel small when looking at the extremely big picture. Join us on the extraordinary adventure that gives every listener the closest look yet at how two creative minds work best together!
It's a rainy day in Southern California and the carnales want to talk about the best things to do in stormy weather! Now, if Joey could only figure out what's going on with Mikey. Join us!
Bitters, last week was intense! We beat the case we made against ourselves and found a way to regroup: music! The one thing that can unite us all! So, after all these holiday shenanigans, sit back, relax, and just enjoy a bit of time with your two carnales.
Sometimes you just know it's going to be one of those nights. A couple of podcasters. Savagely murdered. An unknown assailant. Can two detectives get to the bottom of this heinous crime? You won't believe the shocking conclusion! We wish we could tell you more, but even having a description is a potential spoiler! Dun dun dun!
We did it, Bitters! We made it to the end of 2022! We know, we know; WE can barley believe it ourselves, but we plan to keep going! We guess that means you're stuck with us! And yes, we're aware we can be a bit niche, but we're gonna get more calm and normal, we're gonna fix our state of mind! We're gonna have more fun and be less weird, we're going to smile the entire time! We're gonna be less crazy, we're gonna finally be fine! We're going to be more happy, we're gonna finally be fine! We're gonna stand holding hands in a brand new land far away from the borderline! We're gonna seem like a mainstream dream and be appealing to all mankind! And we're gonna finally be, sunny and shinily, we're gonna finally be fine!
Bet you thought we were down and out, huh? Well, the carnales don't play that! What they do play is messenger and music! We help some loved ones reconnect, sing some familiar Carols, and a ghost of Mikey's past tries to haunt him. How Joey kept this one on course is a testament to his genius. Join us!

As far back as we can remember, we always wanted to be podcasters. Yeah, we had a foolproof scheme all right. It wasn’t very scientific, but it worked. Two complete idiots. The perfect podcast. What could go wrong? Well, go home, get your shinebox, and find out.
Out of the ashes, a new comedy legend arises! Yes, there is some bad news in this episode, but as we've all learned from your role models at Run the Bit, chaos is a ladder. It creates opportunity. (Joey, I need a third quasi-inspirational thing here. -M.A. [We'll think of something before publishing day. -J.L.]) In other words, it's the time of the year to take stock of all the good in our lives.

Monday. October 31st. Halloween. Studio 105. The hour of the owl is close at hand. The children laugh nervously as ghouls pass them by, wondering if this ghoul is the one who'll offer a trick rather than a treat. The air of studio 105 is stale. The stench of 40,000 years permeates every dark corner. Joey and I gave our fair share of treats that night. We never would've guessed we'd get the worst trick of them all... It's the Halloween episode!
Joey's favorite band is back! It's the best day of the ever-year and Mikey wants Joey to talk about all the love. Yup. All the love. All there is here. Nothing but love. Really good lovin'.
