We finish with a Paws Up to Gordon Ramsey for something truly awesome. Come saddle up to the comedy buffet that is... Solid Cat!
Summer vacation is over and Solid Cat is back to tell you what we did on ours. Stand back, this is actually the first half of a two part episode. First, D-mo is now and old man. In the News, we discuss a real life version of the Pina Colada song. For those that were wondering, yes, D-mo passed the stone. Wait... coyotes? Vermont is very beautiful and very green. The Musuem of the Creative Process creeped us out to no end, and we didn't even go in it. On our culinary tour of the eastern United States, we enjoyed cheesecake from the Nuns of New Skete, delicious cuisine at the City Tavern in Philly, and an absolutely delightful Italian place called Joe Benny's in Baltimore (go there; trust us). There were some questionable "Jersey-style" Whoppers at a Burger King. But we finally settle the debate on Philly's best cheesesteak... Pat's or Geno's (or do we?). There was also, what Val called, the "Taj Mahal of bathrooms." And we wrap with a wonderful Paws Up highlighting the spirit of second chances. We packed some much, we had to split up our tale, so enjoy Part 1, today, of Solid Cat.
This week's episode of Solid Cat is powered by you, the fans. The proud citizens of Solid Cat City. What's on tap? One last covfefe jab. Macaroon, macaron, and Macron are three different things. Cheese rolling and shin kicking in England. Luring bathers to Japanese bathhouses, and "chizza" in China? Some guy found a vibrating fidget spinner (it's not a fidget spinner). Sexytime discusses 3-ways with the Spice Girls. Kangaroos have multiple vaginas and bifurcated dicks. TMI. D-mo tries to save the derailing show by talking about naked otters and they are not what you think. The Danger Diva returns to the show to deliver the Solid Cat General Apology.

From the NEEEW Solid Cat Studios, it's the Slumber Party of Podcasts! D-mo is being creative again, so stand back. Strep throat blows. The phrase we were looking for is "last resort." FINALLY, let's talk about My Little Pony. Apparently, people really love Adele and Disney soundtracks. What's the deal with Bob the Builder. Grabher, Lorne Grabher, is full of Canadian rage. Who's cropdusting? Overbooking is common and rampant, stop acting surprised. The joys and rules of vacation rentals. Val doesn't seem so like New York City. Paws Up to Estonia and teddy bears. And we might start our own fake university and fake internship program so people can get "real" work experience so they can get jobs. We're shady... we're Solid Cat!
We're joined by a new special guest, Monica, on this week's episode of Solid Cat. Are 976 numbers still around? Webcam girls are kinda ridiculous. We briefly talk about the new Beauty and the Beast movie, and we're disappointed with the lack of promised gay sex. "Are you telling me that Emma Thompson, in general, isn't as good as Angela Lansbury?!" Once again, no news segment, but some people are looking like Disney characters. D-mo tells the Ballad of Cletus and Scooter. Val tells the story of the Haunted Woods of Friendship Hill. Then things really get creepy AF with both Val and Monica's experiences with the supernatural. No one ever suspects the guy with the dog in a sweater. Paws up to the world's fastest camera. Then we talk about hamburgers because that's where the show went. "Of all the body parts you can throw at people, I think ears are the weirdest." Not surprisingly, there was lots of laughter on this week's Solid Cat.
We're doing something different on this week's Solid Cat. The majority of the show will be taken by two things: La La Land, and Batman v. Superman - Dawn of Justice. We liked one, and we didn't like the other, but it's probably not what you think (spoilers: La La Land is overrated, and Batman v. Superman was actually enjoyable). We do highlight the Oscars snafu and we feel sorry for the guy that's getting fired. D-mo also feels bad for Viggo Mortensen. Captain America - Civil War was better than both movies we talk about, but we don't think either Cap or Iron Man's mom is named Martha. Paws up to Tinder for having a match in Antarctica. Some episodes are classics. This one... maybe not. Be hip, though, and buy a Solid Cat shirt.
Solid Cat is here to kick off the Lunar New Year with a fresh show of all that you love. First, thank you to all the fans who have download the show; you have set some records lately and we thank you for it. We still have seen Superman vs. Batman; will it be like Twilight? We coin a new word: craptivating, it's crap and captivating at the same time. Val keeps forgetting she doesn't speak Japanese. We have some InuYasha spoilers (we named this episode after a 30 second bit of dialogue). We vacationed in Pennsylvania in a little place that's called Ohiopyle and it's glorious. Will Val's mom start listening to the show? Praise be to JetBlue. Liquor laws are weird in other places. Not to bury the lead, but D-mo has been ordained! Hello, Pastor D-mo. We answer a slew of listener questions From the Dojo. In the Sexytime segment, we discuss the positives of open sexual communication with your partner. Remember, some people pay extra for that, so charge accordingly. Hansen's Natural Soda gets reviewed in the Space Cowboy Kitchen. D-mo went to the NHL All-Star game and has some choice words for the Columbus Blue Jackets mascot. Val's Lunar New Year dinner was such a hot ticket, people were disappointed they didn't get an invite. Maybe we should have a contest where you enter to win a dinner with Val. Paws Up for soap in Cambodia. Sometimes we're dirty, sometimes we're clean, but we're always Solid!
It's a brave new world as Solid Cat opens up Season 5! In addition to a new season, we're getting a new Lunar New Year; the year of the Fire Chicken to be specific. Also new: rain in Los Angeles, which means an increase in swift water rescues. Val is adventurous, but only when something comes recommended. In a series of classic Solid Cat segues, talk about Chinese food goes to Brazilian BBQ goes to Kansas City goes to the rumor that Maryland is filled with very unattractive people (if you live in Maryland, send pics and prove us wrong). We parent by reverse psychology. Killer flying bears are not as uncommon as you'd expect, apparently. A fresh Dolores Umbridge reference. We talk a little Trump-ish. What are bacon mushrooms? Of course, the white elephant in the room is that D-mo's father passed away during the break. But ending on a high note, we're like Burns and Allen, and more importantly, you always have friends here with D-mo and Val. In this new era, friendship and compassion are just want the doctor ordered. We're back... we're Solid Cat!
Solid Cat is open for business with so many things to make you feel good, it's like nirvana (not Nirvana). Val starts by tucking into way too much ice cream. There is a Random Bit of Knowledge regarding the club sandwich. "Le Cave" is just a fancy cave, which leads us to gay greeting cards. Medicines really have stupid names, and Val talks about her experience on Lyrica. A first, no News segment in today's show. D-mo loves himself some Lamborghini and Val thinks he ridiculous. Val gets turned on by Arches paper from France, and D-mo has a Moleskine problem (not really a problem, he's just a journal snob). On the Space Cowboy, a pair of reviews: chocolate and booze. Feel good instantly with Ten Things with Val. Feel even better with not one, not two, but THREE Paws Up stories. And then we end with Schrödinger's Cat for no real reason. If you don't feel go after listening to this show, you need to seek professional help. Stay Solid!
With a heaping helping of corned beef, Solid Cat is back! Val's friends kinda suck. Why aren't there legit cookie pies? Are "comfort" animals really service animals?

Go find your park, bring your pan-flute, and crank up Solid Cat!
Happy Valentine's Day from Solid Cat. You should enjoy Solid Cat after sex; it's good basking in the afterglow. Puppy Monkey Baby is an abomination. Carrot Talk leads to Carrot Top leads to Sheamus leads to soap in a sock. We have a crate full of fun news today: a Spanish "worker"; lost in Iceland; a weed fail; a lost monkey; a found tortoise; explosive kangaroos (or bangaroos); a chocolate deficit; and an emergency defecation situation. We finally saw Star Wars and oh those Skywalker boys. Sexytime returns with what do to after sex, a new product called the Slaphappy, and we end up talking about being smacked in the face with a hot dog for "training purposes" (trust us, it totally makes sense). On Paws Up, we salute a beer fountain. Lastly, Barbie comes in all shapes and all sizes. So towel off, cuddle up, and dial up Solid Cat!
Solid Cat is all over and back again. We dine at the Proud Bird near LAX. Who is Bobby Rasmussen? Why is D-mo quoting Fred Astaire? When did Val turn into an old man? We finally say Schofferhofer correctly, or do we? "Oh those Germans," leads to "Oh those Japanese." What is Tentacle Kitty? Is free parking disappearing in Las Vegas? Rent a room and run a bookshop all at once. Our new segment Amazon Prime Time is back. Ten, err, Twelve Things with Val about IKEA. In the Space Cowboy Kitchen, we have pancakes at Du-Par's. We compare Batmen. Zoe doesn't think D-mo is sexy. And the end credits turn into an afterparty as we talk about sex robots and coyotes on shrooms. You didn't misread that.

There is a dating app for bacon lovers. A little bit of useless information regarding Australia; what the hell are Banana Benders? The Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue.

This episode of Solid Cat is NOT jam-packed, but still lasts 90 minutes. What's up on the Solid Cat Community Calendar? Viking festivals have a lot of double entendres. Who's learning a new language?

Solid Cat is loaded with drunks and lies today. D-mo & Val are finishing each other's words and it's gross. Thar she doesn't blow! It's Beard Chat time! Proven fact: people don't like D-mo with just a mustache; it's full beard or nothing. The Space Cowboy Kitchen starts early as we toss back a buttered scotch, a buttered rum, and a hot toddy. In the news, a carpenter-turned-shaman makes D-mo wonder if someone has a Jesus Complex, and why is a man in a bear costume harassing real bears? It's General Apology time! Ten Things with Val teaches you how to spot a liar. "If there is one thing this show does, it promotes literacy." Viva Spock Vegas as we celebrate taking a chance on a whim. D23 Expo just happened and we wonder why other media company don't do their own branded conventions. D-mo explains "social capital" and Val begs for #nohashtag. If you like listening in a random conversation between two smart people, we present Solid Cat!
Solid Cat is highly opinionated today. Monologues and dialogues are two different things. A funny biathlon joke turns into a weird Olympics diatribe (really, Los Angeles should always just host it). No refunds on Ugandan brides. A town emerges from the watery depths of Lake Mead. Don't pray for rain; pray for snow. Skinny jeans hospitalize a woman, which derails the show into a denim rant. Clothes shopping for larger consumers is usually heartbreaking. Val devises a new women's jeans sizing system (copyright Solid Cat. Patent Pending). Lay's Taste of America chips are ranked in the Space Cowboy Kitchen. If you want to jump on the Solid Cat bandwagon, listeners have suggested starting with the Power of Pancakes episode (#82). Did Val just insult D-mo? A stinging insult to boot. I mean, are we witnessing some marital strife? Yes, D-mo has his manias, but he may have to go play the blues on his harmonica after this verbose episode of Solid Cat!
Solid Cat is now on iHeartRadio! You smell that? Smells like legitimacy. It was Harry Potter's birthday and he's now 35. We have four words for you: Ethel. Merman. Disco. Album.

We Booze Review some flavored vodka in the Space Cowboy Kitchen. Sexytime with D-mo & Val returns we three new bits. We have a double Paws Up. And we talk about beef on weck and other western New York culinary treats. Was a jam-packed Solid Cat? Of course it was.
Solid Cat returns, but with a heavy hear as it's our first show since the passing of the Space Cowboy's dad. "Sorry for your loss" sounds kinda awkward. The Nissan Altima was rented and is highly recommended. Hooray for the big guy who is biking across the country to lose weight. If you're wondering, that's the neighbor's dog at the 20 minute mark. Criss Angel: hero? There are now male life-like sex dolls; "gym dick" is optional. A fresh Ten Things, plus another Six Things. Let's talk about Old Fort Niagara. Chuckwagon racing; where have you been all my life? Want to farm in a National Park, the government has a deal for you. For Paws Up, we salute one of the good guys. Blazing Saddles features heavily at the end of the show, someone will probably be offended, and D-mo makes Voldemort a verb (and it totally works). Up and down and everywhere in between, Solid Cat is back, baby!
Solid Cat is back, and right off the bat, let's talk about gay marriage. If you a confused Christian, just know this: it's ok for gays to marry, and religion is not dead, though some are acting like it is. Just listen to us to get some clarity. Let's also talk about the Confederate States of America, where we ask, "Why fly the flag of a losing country that only lasted four years?" From social commentary, we switch to bat guano, women on money, and we feature the first ever Solid Cat Community Calendar. At parties, D-mo and Val are awesomely catty. One guy has saved the lives of two million babies, and rightfully gets this week's Paws Up. And lastly, we learn that D-mo's brain is like the Library of Congress, the world's largest library... after someone has taken a wrecking ball to it. That's the life-force behind Solid Cat!
You wanted Solid Cat, so we're giving you one on the commute home. The word you're looking for is "certified," not "circumcised." It's not illegal to sell golden tickets to heaven, unless you say they're solid gold and they're just painted pieces of wood, that Jesus gave you behind a KFC; and don't forget your baby alligator. FIFA is rife with corruption and their app is lacking in Women's World Cup coverage. As we're driving, see if you can hear where the road improves. D-mo is back in Assassin's Creed mode. The Solid Cat couch is awesome and therapeutic. Since we got home faster than planned, we're now recording from the driveway. We dropped a Kentucky Fried Movie reference (you didn't misread that). Godzilla is now a citizen of Japan. And the Danger Diva hijacks the credits and wails like a banshee. Why not... it's Solid Cat.
This week's Solid Cat is high on culture as D-mo and Val explored the exhibit of the work of J.M.W. Turner (allegedly Britain's most famous painter) that just concluded at the Getty Center. In the art talk, we critique and praise Turner's work, while also learning that Val digs Degas, and D-mo is all about Rubens. You can't talk about art without talking about Ninja Turtles. We look at passion vs. talent, and wrap that bit up with the nightclub at the museum. Elsewhere in this episode, Discovery Channel proves they can troll like a boss, D-mo's chair is extra noisy tonight, and what the hell happened to Neville F'ing Longbottom. England seems to have a hard time keeping track of their dead kings. Ireland earns our Paws Up! Val hates food bloggers, but LOVES a shirtless Thor, and dropped a mysterious Welsh accent. And we end with the question as old as time... who doesn't love fucking donuts? Wait, that's not what I mean.
To start Solid Cat, Val has a giant platypus on her head. Which invariably leads to a discussion about hats at the Kentucky Derby. We have a couple of corrections to make for last week's show. D-mo is in the Another Damn Trivia Show tournament final. Val has an unnatural obsession with Mary, Queen of Scots, which invariably leads to D-mo spending a full 9 minutes talking about politics in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada, which invariably leads to Ten Things about VE Day. OtterBoxes are not otterproof. Buy what's left of the Las Vegas Riveria. How to eat cupcakes nowadays. Fun facts about boobs, with a Norma Stitz reference. Big Bird made us cry, a high school boy is promoting feminine hygiene, and D-mo & Val finally saw Iron Man 3... two years later. Sometimes we're timely, sometimes we're not. Standard Solid Cat.
It may the best episode of Solid Cat, and we're all over the map. First, D-mo is baffled by Hinduism. Religion takes us to outlet malls. It was Kentucky Derby day, and despite eugenics (or animal husbandry), horses haven't gotten any faster. The Mayweather vs. Pacquiao was a bit of a snoozer, but the Burger King was there (?). When there is rain in L.A., people panic. We love the Columbia Sportswear Company. We have a sudden Paul Bunyan debate, which leads into the surprising aerodynamics of microfiber cloths. We revisit the tale of the clumsy whore. Val gets up close and personal with a duck, and it wasn't her choice. There are exotic dancers and Chinese funerals. A hologram of Stephen Hawking leads to an ungodly amount of time discussing boy bands. For instance, Rollermania was a legit thing. Mr. Goodbar is featured in the Space Cowboy Kitchen. Clash of the Titans has a ridiculousness too far. Ten Things with Val looks at how our ancestors were mighty perverts. D-mo and Val continue to take credit for Francis' selection as Pope. And D-mo mildly embarrasses a friend, because he can... and it's a fun story (he's a bastard like that). You might want to schedule a larger than usual block of time to enjoy this week's Solid Cat!
There are some episodes of Solid Cat, where we are cultured and refined. Other times, we're quite crass. No surprises what kind of episode this is. We go from banned underwear to the world's widest tongues to hand jobs while singing karaoke to teabagging to dick pics to ass beads. But first, D-mo gets handed a stranger's baby. You should watch out for the Hand of the Almighty. Speaking of God, we salute the Padres, a priest on the Titanic, and talk about how Edmonton may be hell... albeit a frozen hell. And for kicks, soccer in the Thunderdome. 22 men enter, 11 leave. I'm not sure what to make of this week's episode, but as Val puts it, "it wasn't me, it was the foreskin." Wait, what? Oh, Solid Cat.
It's Spring Break season at Solid Cat. We explain western vs. eastern christianity, which leads to Jewish calendars, which leads to crossword puzzles, which leads to purposeful misspellings, which leads to Under Armour, which leads to Shoe Talk with D-mo & Val. Don't you just love stream of consciousness podcasting? Say hi to Rocket the Rusty Rocket. Killer tombstones need David Caruso. James Van Der Beek is a good-looking man. There is a super brief Michael Sheen retrospective, and we agree that Alan Rickman will always been Snape. Chocolate ganache in the Space Cowboy Kitchen. It's time for the Solid Cat General Apology. D-mo and Val talk about their dreams, and will God smite Val with a plague of baboons? Things that are not cocaine: sno-balls, Mexican Coke, curry, and white lady. Or are they? The credits are high as a kite of Solid Cat!
The Getty Villa, the Griffith Observatory, and El Capitan Theatre... man, Solid Cat is all over Los Angeles. First off, as a good rule of thumb, don't throw a punch at your producer. Depression lies. In 1998, D-mo made Lisa Loeb the Green Lantern; this was favorited by Lisa Loeb herself on Twitter in 2015. Val got kicked in the face; literally a foot to the face. We have fun historical facts about Magellan. Mr. T pities the tool; yes, the tool. Camels go missing in Missouri; they may or may not be gay; Cher may or may not be involved. The Most Interesting Man in the World can't get you out of a carpool violation ticket. What is the "Most Canadian Photo Ever?" We review the new live action Cinderella, and following that up with a review of Greenblatt's deli in the Space Cowboy Kitchen. We play Superfight again on Solid Cat Game Night, and we're sorry for any relationships we may have broken up due to our gameplay. Editors! Do you job! And we end with Val making fun of how D-mo runs. What's up with that? This is Solid Cat.
We may be fat, but ain't ugly here at Solid Cat. D-mo loves tenacious pinatas. Zoe is known more for silent terror (she's screaming on the inside). Are nail spas modern-day brothels? We visit the Getty Villa to start a grand tour of Los Angeles. Want to start a conversation, wear a Flash t-shirt. Famous people and people who portray them on film. Will Smith takes us to John Wayne who takes us to Hollywood whitewashing and yellowface, as John Wayne played Genghis Khan in a movie. Yes, that Genghis Khan. Of course, the worst yellowface was Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's. What is moleology? Heard of urine-repellant paint? We have the world's first penis transplant. In the Space Cowboy Kitchen, we review the ice cream of Milk, on Beverly. At The Counter, they sell a beer float. Yes, bear with ice cream. Let's celebrate the ninja. How awesome would a real-life Studio Ghibli-Land be? Val is like a songbird... or a whore siren (her words). And yes, from Albania to Zimbabwe, Solid Cat is 100 country strong. #BOOM
Rest in peace, Leonard Nimoy. Val always thought Spock was hot. But we do have a full show of Solid Cat today. Burritos are Mexican food, but breakfast burritos are not. Did Val nail her Oscar pick? Catwoman is bisexual now. Ever wonder what it sound like Val won't let D-mo finish a sentence? We have 5 minutes of it, and in the end, D-mo may not have made his point. Val says her ethnicity is "Freckled-American." Lots of news this week including a belly bounce, backhoes, snooker, stolen log cabins, a terror owl, and drive-by eggings. Solid Cat Game Night returns with Superfight. In the Space Cowboy Kitchen, we learn how to cut a cake, how to pour ketchup from a bottle, and how to eat a hamburger, according to science. From the Dojo, we have perhaps the greatest product review on Amazon. Someone is shipping snow and fun and profit. And then there is a radioactive Loch Ness Monster. Only on Solid Cat.

It’s how we roll at Solid Cat!
After two months… SOLID CAT RETURNS! Pro tip: Back up your hard drive onto an external drive. Trust me on this one. The new computer in Solid Cat Studios was more of like a Time Lord regeneration. Happy Valentine’s Day! Val is mildly disappointed that Sherlock and John aren’t gay, and D-mo drops an interesting theory on Moriarty’s return. We talk about Jane Austen for no good reason. Colin Firth looks great for his age; Kenny Rogers looks like a troll. Why was Peppa Pig banned? Carrying a basilisk in your pocket is a flawed idea. We explore fun, yet dangerous, national parks. Can a kangaroo be a service animal? It’ll be “Undie Sunday” in Bakersfield, aka Condorstown, with a 50 Shades of Gray twist. Speaking of, Sexytime with D-mo & Val returns as well this week. And 109 year old guy makes sweaters for penguins, and we try to decide where the cut off is between “horribly dated” and “classic.” You’ve missed us, and we’ve missed you. It’s time to strap on a brand new Solid Cat!
It's 12/13/14 at Solid Cat (unless you live outside North America, then never mind). D-mo was a roofer today... because, rain. Val can't stop yawning. There is no war on Christmas. Wanna put the Christ in Christmas, then feed the poor. You should say "Happy 2015" all year long. Charades are always an adventure. (Correction: Dar es Salaam is not the capital of Sudan as said on the show. It was the capital of Tanzania until 1996. Our bad). High speed cow chase. Not cop chase, a cow chase, though cops were involved. Abby Normal. Then we talk about "the Sexy," with banned sex acts on British porn and we settle Butts vs. Boobs. Sex is like a credit card: you get the enjoyment now, but you have to pay for later... with interest. We have the most offensively name foods on the planet (seriously, what are 6 Faggots in Gravy? It can't be real). In the finish, a Finnish kid is running for office, and Val dusts off the Sailor Moon. Moon Prism Power, Solid Cat!
Happy Thanksgiving from Solid Cat. To start, corporate greed saved D-mo's father's life - it's a heartwarming tale of capitalism. Val transitions this into a discussion of a flat tax, and D-mo suggests we eliminate income tax completely. But then the comedy kicks in. Legos are washing up on beaches. Wolves in France, tigers in China, and Putin on point. There was some Black Friday expeditioning and a lack of turkey leftovers. We have the instant classic of Bing and Bowie. What is a lumbersexual? Val's friend Caryn is our validation for intellectual jokes. And then... there is a turkey reaper, as in an actual turkey in the role of Grim Reaper. Only on Solid Cat.
Solid Cat... the hour long show that always takes 90 minutes. Why did God call D-mo today? Our daughter has rock star hours. Also, her personal library would rival the children's section in most public libraries. Was Marie Antoinette the catalyst for the Industrial Revolution? Was Marie Antoinette a cosplayer? Fun fact: since Solid Cat has been broadcasting, UCLA has never lost to USC in the big game. Coincidence? D-mo really is the Spirit of Aloha. Then there is the Bug-a-salt: it's weird, but awesome. Is Winnie the Pooh of "dubious sexuality"? Someone is blessing the asses of single ladies so they can get husbands. Swedes don't have a word for female masturbation and are working to remedy that. We have the best pick-up lines that don't work. We have bonus content in the Space Cowboy Kitchen and Paws Up! Finally, at the end of the show, Val just loses it. Every once in a while, Val is reduced to a laughing mess, and when she does, it's awesome to behold. And it happened on this week's Solid Cat.
One of our new taglines is: Come laugh, come be informed, come be offended. And boy did we hit all three on this week's Solid Cat. Playing Chutes and Ladders for cash is downright cutthroat. We have been downloaded in 48 of 50 U.S. States (I'm looking at you Alaska and Vermont). We're fun together. Necrophilia and Narcolepsy are two different things; Val has one of them. Razors: whatever D-mo saved in cash, he paid for in blood. Learn how to tie a tie would ya! Pico Rivera is chock full of archers. "Maybe he's the Malcolm Merlyn to my Ollie Queen?" Things that creep the hell out of Val are raisins in baked goods, and spaces between walls. RIP Zoboomafoo. D-mo is also a fashion designer. A pair of apple pie inspired recipes in the Kitchen. Cinnebon Vodka! Teutonic and tectonic are two different things, and a geology joke leads to German efficiency which leads to how Hitler may have been responsible for Israel. What? So after that, let's end with a Dick Tracy movie reference. I await your angry tweets and e-mail. This is Solid Cat.
Solid Cat One Hundred! And for some reason, Val said we're like Jesus. Sure, let's run with that. WWD&VD? This show, like all of them, is a crapshoot. Does "shooting the shit" come from plunking cowpies with a squirrel gun? Val is reading the 17th century version of Urban Dictionary... for fun. Holy cow, Sherlock is sooo much better than Elementary. What the hell happened in the Doctor Who finale? Two words: Master Falconer. Butter. The Space Cowboy Kitchen returns. What does Picasso have to do with cupcakes? Know your fundamentals. In addition to doing this podcast for 100 episodes, we were on the radio, real radio, for three years; you'd think we'd better than this. We saw a movie on opening weekend (WHAT?), and we review Big Hero 6. D-mo lets his comic book nerd spill all over the place. We list our Top 5 Disney movies. Val lists the ten reasons you can't get a stiffy (hey floppy guy at the gangbang, listen up). #sniffyourtears Why does D-mo have an unhealthy obsession towards Canada? After 100 episodes, we are like Jesus is that our words are just as widespread across the globe as his! Now stand back, Solid Cat is about to be smote by the Almighty.
It's the start of D-MOvember here on Solid Cat! Valerie had an Oktoberfest birthday and had the first hangover in years. In Germany, they don't have port-a-johns, they have port-a-johanns. Our hummus recipe is pretty damn good. The Charlotte Hornets are back! D-mo loves team apps with local radio feeds. Val thinks Pelicans is a worse team name than Redblacks. WHAT? For the record, it's spelled "umtzz umtzz." Why didn't we tell anyone about Valloween? But let's talk about Halloween. Hot glue is a harsh mistress. The wand chooses the wizard; that much has always been true. The homeless are single-handedly saving the planet via recycling. Mexican Coke is legit. Val says we need to bring back a code of honor, an acceptance of transients, and a much more forgiving nature towards traveling craftsmen. Cosplay has explained a lot of odd things away. We have a record-setting pumpkin. Does D-mo have Low T? Oh, and D-mo just called the Clippers the Kato Kaelin of L.A. sports (I guess, thus implying, the Lakers are the O.J. Simpson of L.A. sports). If you're looking for a trucker with a heart of gold, sorry, all we have are D-mo and Val. 10-4 Solid Cat!
We're random, smart, and funny... often at the same time... it's Solid Cat! Solid Cat runs on Dunkin' and other bizarre donut tales. Los Angeles is an eclectic foodie experience and we'll wait for anything. The rust belt is coming back! Sorta. Putin is a macho man, and that leads to a "world class" Solid Cat segue to heroin, gherkins, and garlic. Nobody's a fan of Steinbeck. Vanilla Ice Goes Amish is the most fun I've had watching Vanilla Ice in 20 years. Filled chocolate-chips? Why haven't I heard of these? A True Blood final season recap, loaded with spoilers. What the hell is a Scroguard? From the Dojo, we reveal our best travel tips. Is there a Paws Up for the President? And we close the show with the Space Cowboy ranting against the sun for three whole minutes. She's apparently not a fan. But we know you are. After all, this is Solid Cat!
It's a rip-roaring romp on this week's Solid Cat! (not really, but that's the story we're sticking with) We insist that holidays stay in their own months. D-mo is getting his ass back. There are horns o' plenty. Fish with human teeth? Drunk, cow-fighting pigs? Yes, please. We have some adventures on the Queen Mary. Is Val a medium? We spend the bulk of the show on musicals and movies, including Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, The NeverEnding Story, and the original Muppet Movie. Can we all agree that Dorcas is a horrible name, especially for a woman? Did D-mo compare Kermit the Frog to Doctor Who. And a medically-inspired Ten Things with Val that'll make you wonder how we ever made it. They can't all be winners, especially on Solid Cat.
When in come to Solid Cat, always vote Aye! Finally, we're doing that Ten Things with Val that we've been dancing around for 3 weeks. Is D-mo the Scotland of his office? We have surprisingly full coverage of the Scottish Independence vote (and is D-mo trying to do a Peter Capaldi impersonation?) We have the Ig Nobel prize winners... with fermented sausages. This week's Sexytime deals with accidentally found dildos. From the Dojo asks where our numbers went? It's never too late on this week's Paws Up. You say "It's a life hack," I say "I MacGyver-ed something." If you like a smart discussion about topical subjects, then dial up this "comedy" podcast. We get it. Sometimes we're too clever for our own good; we're Solid Cat!
Solid Cat All-Star Matrice is in the studio for this week's Solid Cat. The innocuous phrase "Stings like the Dickens" leads to a super-sized segment on books and literary classics. D-mo has forgotten more literary classics that most people will ever read. What are our most influential books? The books are ALWAYS better than the movie. Is Stephanie Meyer the most influential author of the early 21st century? (the answer is a resounding YES) Why is NC-17 the kiss of death? Same thing with a G rating. Hey... read to your kids. Penny-farthing! "Do people still do cocaine lines?" D-mo & Val have a relaxing effect on people. And there may be some singing of the Spice Girls. Seriously though, if you like books, you've LOVE this episode of Solid Cat.
Frothy things are always good things, and so is SOLID CAT. This week: did D-mo just compare himself to Mel Torme? "Mistress of Pajamas" really is a boss nickname. What is the Giant Floating Disembodied Head... named Steve? It's Dr. Whoutlander Day, and Val is trying to make that happen. Val is having problems with fingering her apps (wait, what?). There was a lack of Whitesnake jokes where there should have been. The Great Sock Mystery is solved! The world's largest dinosaur is found, and otters are a keystone species (SCIENCE!). Sexytime with D-mo & Val returns... Dutch style. We finish with boobs, boobs, and boobs, and then D-mo gets on his sexy soapbox. Didn't know soapboxes could be sexy? They are on Solid Cat!
On this week's Solid Cat, the show gets taken over by our sister show: Macabre Hour with D-mo & Val. But before donated skulls got us to that point, it was quite the hot mess express. Target & Thai food is a good Saturday night. D-mo went to the gym. Seriously. Val has been consistent with her food logging. Seriously! The show comes to a screeching halt due to a cracked glass. What is Sheeptapus? "Nobody got the whole enchilada?" "Dingoes are Australian coyotes. They didn't call them coyotes because Aussies don't speak Spanish." We have a spirited discussion about Spirited Away. The 8 best running songs. Free cats with every mortgage. But the show really excels under the Macabre Hour bits, featuring D-mo "the Master of Light Beige-ness" and Val "the Mistress of Pajamas." This is Solid Cat... or Macabre Hour?!?!?
Up for an adventure to everywhere and nowhere? Welcome to Solid Cat. Let's lead with Outlander... but let's talk about Assassin's Creed first... and then jump to Twilight (?)... and then on to Outlander. There is a new Doctor Who and he's Scottish. Valerie is too OCD to live in the Big Brother house. Do you need a FaceTime buddy? We're available. Our news is overly-chicken-themed this week, and efficient German justice is doled out. Barnes & Noble graffiti exists. Will D-mo ever do the ice bucket challenge? Chris Pratt has become the fitness icon. The Space Cowboy Kitchen this week is powered by the Outlander Kitchen. We went school supply shopping (hot damn!). D-mo is taking back his desk. We have crickets. Lots of crickets. And wait until Draco's father hears about this. This... being Solid Cat.
On this week's Solid Cat, we go full nerd. But before we do, we talk Medieval cats with flaming backpacks that were actual weaponized felines. Did Weezer create hipsters? Monkey selfies, and side show prohibition. Also is every full moon a supermoon now? However, as this is the Nerdertainment episode, here are the movies/tv shows we reference in today's show: Guardians of the Galaxy; Star Trek; Twilight; Iron Man; Thor; Captain America; Agents of SHIELD; Agent Carter; Arrow; Flash; LEGO Marvel Heroes; Pirate Fairy; Hemlock Grove; Outlander; Deep Space Nine; Battlestar Galactica; X-Men: Seven Brides for Seven Brothers; Chasing Amy; License to Kill; Daredevil; and Dawn of Justice. That's gotta be like a record. I'm not sure, but this is, for sure, Solid Cat.
It's D-mo's 40th Birthday celebration on Solid Cat! We start with Shakespeare and we finish with German Expressionism, but in the middle... we're podcasting in the daytime (shock), Val sounds like a southern belle when off air, and Val is the personification of the Dead Sea. Romeo is a whiny little bitch. Zoe interrupts us, repeatedly. We people watch at the theatre. We talk Wonder Woman, and the Great Alaskan Bush Company. We have hot volleyball players and accident penis amputations. For his birthday, D-mo had a celebratory birthday at Jack in the Box. There is a muscular guy at the pool, and we discuss Howard-Hughes-isms. Val has a hippie mom and a sailor dad. We hit two museums and reference a third. We recite our General Apology, and share some motivational memes. "Why am I slow clapping?" This is Solid Cat.
It's the Season 3 Premiere of Solid Cat. Our hometown of Pico Rivera, California, is the UNDISPUTED World Champion of illegal fireworks. If we can't stop the influx of illegal fireworks, what chance to we have against drugs and guns. Valerie says North Carolina is "Virginia's Mexico." In the World Cup, D-mo asks "How do say, 'taken behind the woodshed,' in Portuguese?" We have an absolute gem about jizz from ESPN's Tommy Smyth. We talk about the real ass-ball-huggy-thingy; it's like a schlong sling. Mel Brooks has ruined D-mo, as he now channels Peter Boyle. We talk about a Bob Hope movie (???). Meat falls off the back of a truck, and we have marble vaginas and bad German accents. Val regales with tales of the sweet melody of cats in heat. We have villains holding koalas and frozen burritos, inspired by Disney's Frozen. And now, we dance - umtzzumtzzumtzz This is Solid Cat... SEASON THREE!
Solid Cat is orgasmic this week. Why? Well, most people, after sex, they cuddle. What do we do? We podcast! Val is hungover but had the best day ever. We revisit Dave Coulier. We talk international sporting events: first the Quidditch Global Games, and then the World Cup. Did someone find Dracula's grave? D-mo shows an unnatural amount of love for New Mexico, the Land of Enchantment. Finnish babies sleep in cardboard boxes. The Solid Cat audience determine the winner in Levi's vs. Wrangler... or do they? D-mo utters the phrase "ass ball huggy," when the phrase he was looking for was "form-fitting." We talk up French knickers. We bust out some Dole Whip in the Kitchen, as once again, we talk pineapples. We then stumble into some quasi-serious immigration talk, and then stumble into some quasi-legit motivational words (no, not ass ball huggy). This is Solid Cat!
The newly rebranded D-mo "the Spirit of Aloha" joins Val the Space Cowboy on this week's Solid Cat. First up, pineapples. Lot of them. Can't get enough of the King of the Fruits. Val is literally squeezing the juices out of them. We're going to make our own Dole Whip, and the pineapple clock radio has a nasty snooze button. There's a random The Tick reference. The Middle East loves the bosom. "...speaking of Balls-in-Your-Face Johnson" leads to random Balls Mahoney reference. Yes, the ECW wrestler. The Danger Diva says she's fast, but the Flash is faster. Triple Crown sour grapes leads to Horse Racing Chat with D-mo & Val. "I've been on the forefront of bacon love before there was even a bacon bandwagon." The 17 best restaurants names ever. The 10 most impactful movies to the film industry. You should always stay through the movie credits... it's a gold mine of comedy. There is a 6-year-old fight to the death with accompanying music. My Neighbor Totoro has so many unanswered questions. That leads to Mall Chat with D-mo & Val. And then we finish with a hashtag that Val is actually trying to get going: #summerconfessions This... is Solid Cat.
Like a leave in the wind, so goes this week's Solid Cat. It was a big day for Val and Zoe. D-mo was a car crash hero, sorta. Val is learning German (kudos to Duolingo). ripped jeans need replacin'. Morgan Freeman returns to the show. We talk about a skin thief, and choking a fox; they're not related. D-mo dishes fashion advice, and hails the importance of having your own tailor. We go from the Shewee to a convo about lady bits. We highlight a top notch Little Mermaid tattoo. It's tiki time in the Space Cowboy Kitchen, and we finish with Reading Rainbow. This is Solid Cat.
On the rambling path that is Solid Cat, you never know where we'll end up. No one could have foreseen the adventures on this week's show. Why do banquet halls have some lousy acoustics. Nothing ruins a day like a 6 year old with strep throat. Valerie the Space Cowboy is the life of the party and everyone loves her. She loves year-old candy canes, she ambidextrous, and likes certain things stuck in her teeth. We visit the Dmo-Valerian stables and talk horses. What happened in 1889 and why do we care? People binge-listen to the podcast. A spoonful of sugar (or artificial flavoring) does help the medicine go down. Val is D-mo's favorite pillow. We find out what isn't Val's favorite. Did "Bosom Buddies" in the 80's lead to social acceptance of transvestitism and transsexualism today? Oh, and then there is Gay Thor. This... is Solid Cat.
We finish with hookers, but we start with lightsabers, again, on this week's Solid Cat. You've got to watch out for nerd posers and militant nerds. "I can feel women's eggs drying up in their ovaries as you speak." Let's talk about the guy that created Wonder Woman; let's just say double fisting is involved. "Making it into puppetry, that's where it went awry." We talk about a killer's love connection. We salute the James Beard Award winners. And they are double-cocking in France. From the Dojo, we talk about pillow fights... for a good 4 minute bit. Sexytime with D-mo and Val returns and we talk porn preferences vs. real-life preferences, and D-mo says "Dead Sea Scrotums." Also returning is Solid Cat Game Night. Chocolate chip cookies should really be the official cookie of the United States. There is a Mariachi Magician, and the greatest goal celebration in soccer, ever. We discuss horn etiquette and turkey gloves. Did we really pack all this into one episode? Yes we did. This is Solid Cat.
Solid Cat's comedy is so organic, you can get it for $12.95 at Whole Foods. On this week's show, we learn that kids love the Force at the Jedi Training Academy. There were lightsabers for everybody at Solid Cat, and be forewarned, them bitches leave bruises. On top of that, we have a Nerd Alert. Dine with us at the New Wave Restaurant and experience the 80's with a Wham! Burger. Mr. Popadick wants to say hello. Saucy Siri returns with a lot of snark and a new poetry slam. Ten Things with Val features museums that shouldn't exist but do. We visit the Boysenberry Festival at Knott's Berry Farm. We make a mind-boggling good hummus dip in the Space Cowboy Kitchen. Our salute to the awesome is truly awesome. And we finish with a bombshell involving pickle chips. You learn something new every day. Especially here. This is Solid Cat!
This is the episode of Solid Cat you'll want to tell your friends about. It's the greatest collection of unscripted and natural tangents and seques collected, and it comes full circle. First off, it's daytime. D-mo is glad we don't have flying cars. Learn the greatest insult ever. Animal husbandry leads to questions about doggie porn, with cameos from Larry the Cable Guy and John Ratzenburger. Hear how a normal horse date would go, and know that everyone needs to have a gelding friend. Val says, "I've seen someone jack off an elephant." We toss a shout out to the #BakerThermometer and the Highway Vibe is a friendly voice on the way to Vegas. We enjoy some car tipping. People are getting engaged at the old ballpark. There is a classy steroids to absinthe segue. Val hates audience participation. In Sexytime, we talk foot fetishs, and then all hell breaks loose. D-mo suggested weird sex acts is like taking a foreign language; not a waste, you learned something new, and found out you're not a fan of it: "It's like Rosetta Stone... but will balls in your ass." But then we learn the cleansing power of pancakes. Nothing soothes questions sexual choices like a short stack from IHOP. And that's before we ever get into the Thai job (still don't know what that is). Some shows are misses, and some are hits. This one? This was a "you sunk my battleship!" hit. This is Solid Cat.
Like glitter from a stripper that you just can't off you, it's Solid Cat! On tap this week: Can we reschedule April's Fool Day to random days in April? Time-Life Music infomercials are EPIC. Baker Street is the greatest bait-and-switch in musical history. Freddie Mercury is not Zoolander. "That guy makes Mariah Carey look like Cirque du Soleil." Books bound in human skin... or are they? The return of the Solid Cat Movie Review. The Grove in Los Angeles smells like cologne, a lot of it, courtesy the clientele. We review the Cheese Dog from Top Round in the Space Cowboy Kitchen. We tell you where to see celebs in L.A. so you can stop asking us. Things you didn't know where invented by women, and a mysterious Japanese benefactor. This week's episode is packed like a meat bazaar... this is SOLID CAT!
Solid Cat is quaketacular as we rock and roll this week's episode. D-mo woefully botches a historical reference on the Treaty of Versailles. We have a sad case of animal rape, but an uplifting take of the sheep-shearing Olympics. Assassin's Creed makes a return. Visit the website and meet the Solid Cat All-Stars. General Apology Time. Then we enter the "Age of the Celebrity Chef" and take foodie on Vegas and Michelin stars. Apparently chefs err on the side of innovation with fossilized Mongolian horse dung. There are also cupcake vending machines. Solid Cat is proud to be part of Nerdpocalypse. There is a bridal shower recap, a bit of Fair Play, and does Val's hair look like George Washington's? Some days were funny; other days were just chatty. This may be one of those "other" days. But hey, this is Solid Cat.
Solid Cat Podcast straps on the feedbag and eats up on this week's episode. Joined again by Big Daddy Dave, D-mo and Dave recall their visit to Las Vegas where they ate across town. It was quite the culinary tour. In the return of the Space Cowboy Kitchen, D-mo and Val review the Chocolate Cake Shake. We have some frozen hot chocolate. And we talk salsa. A podcast of food excess is bound to be titled "Overindulgence." But wait, there's more. D-mo coughs a lot. Dave got a haircut. Casinos are to homogenized. It's Solid Cat Game Night. Spontaneous humanity happens. And Val wants to be a blacksmith. We wanted everyone to bring their "C" game, and boy did we. This is Solid Cat!
It's raining on this week's Solid Cat. In other news, Val is a would-be novelist, D-mo is a would-be pamphleteer. We discover America's Funniest Home Videos was YouTube, before YouTube was YouTube. "You'll get yours in the parking lot." D-mo blows his nose very loudly, and in public places. Should D-mo go to Vegas with his best friend... and a bunch of college cheerleaders. #JohnSmith Val's animated crush is InuYasha. D-mo can be your personal muse. We talk Guardians of the Galaxy, which transitions to Wonder Woman. D-mo has been advised not to disparage the French in his next gig. Solid Cat Game Night returns, and we talk airport carpets. Because why not? This is Solid Cat!
All cookies, all the time on this week's Solid Cat. Speaking of which, where the hell are the Girl Scout cookies this year? D-mo loves the Samoas, Val loves the Thin Mints. Cookie name changes are stupid, and it feels like everything is a "buddy" now. D-mo drops a bold Oscar prediction, and gives you the best way to win your Oscar office pool. Why is Siri harping on Enchanted? On our Olympic wrap-up, it's become passe to rag on NBC's coverage, but we do it anyway. Val goes off on subpar parents. Trashy news about trash. CHIVAS IS DEAD!!! Ten Common, but Wrong, Science Myths. From the Dojo features sleep and ostriches. "That's the sound of my iPad hitting my face." A little anime corner, as D-mo loves Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. We talk a little Colorado marijuana. And at the end, D-mo Bobby Browns the podcast. Oh my!
This week's Solid Cat Podcast is shooting wildly in all directions. Smug L.A. D-mo brags about the weather, while Val has poor aim. Margarita bars make kiddie birthday parties soooo much better. D-mo unloads on ghetto-talk, while Val is the glue that keeps this show together (which is ironic in its own way). Random tangents rule on this week's Slumber Party of Podcasts. D-mo is cussing a lot today, Siri's Poetry Slam returns, and what is Shia LeBeouf doing? Should dolphins get "human rights?" #dolphinapocalypse We blame Malcolm McDowell for "totes magoats." There are crocodiles in trees... seriously. We have listener questions, and the Space Cowboy Kitchen is inspired by the Silk Road. What Avenger are we? Sexytime with D-mo, Val, & Siri strikes again. Is there a Gay Constitution? And then we stumble to the finish. Why not? Fo shizzle, fo shizzle!
This week, Solid Cat, the Slumber Party of Podcasts, is also the International Podcast of Mystery. We highlight the use and irony of t.A.T.u.'s music for the Russians during the Sochi Olympics. We have a non-English speaker from Greece, with no concept of American Football, adeptly call out that the Broncos blew, and we learn why D-mo rooted for the Seahawks. We toss a #historyjoke. Saucy Siri returns to the show and we wonder if she's American or Chinese, her unedited answer will surprise you. The CW is full of pretty people. In Celebrity Death Corner, we learn the method actors are hardcore... dangerously so. Our mottos: "Adventure awaits," and "There's no such thing as 'pot-committed.'" We drop some sound Vegas gambling advice. We learn real names of real people. We tell you how we got our new phones for free. And now, Solid Cat is on Pinterest... and whatever that entails. Oh, and did we mention Solid Cat's Senior Entertainment Correspondent, Matrice, is back on the show? Well, she is.
On this week's Solid Cat, we welcome a saucy Siri as a regular part of the show. We may do a spin-off called Saucy Cat. IS THE POPE A VAMPIRE?!?! #hotpope Marlee Matlin will not be Peter Pan. What does "Solid Cat" mean? "I'm pretty sure I'm allergic to lions, too." The NHL Stadium Series at Dodger Stadium was a hit. We talk Celtic Complexion, the band Keane, and skinny jeans on men. It's a moose knuckle, and not a gorilla nose. Blowdart attacks, and sociopathic media. We are now on RadioFubar. Val chews ice on air. We have the return of Sexytime, and get serious about acquaintance rape. There is a Phil Donahue reference, and favorite pick-up lines. Lastly we debate if childbirth really is the worst pain. We're all over the map and it's awesome.
Big Daddy Dave returns to this week's Solid Cat. We discover which one of our Guests have slept in the studio, and remind everyone it's important to have multi-cultural friends. Weather in California is awesome. D-mo was on another podcast, and this segued into a trip to the Dave Foley sitcom NewsRadio. We have more Top Round love. It's Cable Industry Talk with D-mo, Val, & Dave as we talk network apps and HBO GO password sharing. There is a "slightly haunted" house for sale. Ten biblical misconceptions. Dave brings goodies to the Space Cowboy Kitchen. D-mo isn't sure if he wants to deal with the Chinese government. Val brings Del Taco to Buffalo, and we finish off talking about airport food. Remember, no pants are, indeed, the best pants.
It's a fresh new take on Solid Cat, as we roll out new music across the podcast. And though, that may be the highlight, there is a full show waiting for you inside. Robot voices makes us seem less pompous. Val's the president of the Screen OVERactors Guild. We're teaching the daughter to dunk. We spotlight D-mo's "Arsenal of Freedom." Bizarre, random Simpsons reference. D-mo sings through awkward pauses to fill dead air. Val sometimes forgets she does a podcast. Naked foosball is dangerous. "Chiquita" might be the new slang for cocaine. Is there a Velveeta shortage? "The Purge" is real in Peru. "You got Knuckles McGee over here..." D-mo gets on his soapbox and unloads his Chivas USA diatribe. Val goes to an "Outlander" panel. #PocketJamie. And then, D-mo & Val have a heated discussion about this week's Paws Up! recipient. But we end with steel drums, and who doesn't love steel drums.
It's the first Solid Cat of 2014, and today, Big Daddy Dave joins us in studio for a rowdy episode of the Slumber Party of Podcasts. We talk first world problems, and winter in Los Angeles. We take a tour of the Southwest, talking about Phoenix heat and being stranded in Utah. Watch out for fake donkey-meat snacks. We enjoy an impromptu MySpace retrospective. "Us eating on air doesn't make for good radio, but we're doing it anyway." And then we enjoy some Yelp reviews for a strip club. Trust us, this is one of our better shows.
We kick out 2013 in style with a bunch of Big Lists on this week's Solid Cat. On this week's show: the odd week between Christmas and New Year's; D-mo doesn't like candy canes, but Val likes hers chewy; there is a lot of lamenting going on; why didn't D-mo get Assassin's Creed IV for Christmas?; Hugh Downs in still alive; a new special guest joins us in studio, and you'll be surprised and what she calls D-mo; what would have been a debate on Christmas Eve vs. Christmas morning turns into a rant by Val on how Christmas is exhausting and not like when she was a kid; virgin births; Icelandic elves; 100 Things We Learned in 2013; Top 10 Most Popular New Year's Resolutions; hobo bags; and we finish with an overindulgence in the Space Cowboy Kitchen. Warning: we're verbose.
It's the Solid Cat Christmas Music Spectacular as Demosthenes and Valerie the Space Cowboy count down their favorite Christmas songs of all time. But we would just have that alone in the podcast; oh no. The stockings are stuffed with: cheap DVD's, El Assholo, Dole Pineapple Whip, Dildo Grabbins, Chambord-spiked smoothies, Leonard Nimoy, a raccoon with a vendetta, "You can't kill CRAZY," Top 10 most dangerous Xmas toys including actual uranium, Dominic the Donkey, Val's hatred for both Josh Grobin and "TSO," Avenger vibrators, the King of Versailles, and a Benise Bonus! Phew. And the credits go askew in a hurry. Man, we're better than any of those Hallmark Hall of Fame Christmas movies. FACT!
It's Whosgiving here at Solid Cat as we nerdgasm about Doctor Who's 50th Anniversary and stuff our faces full of Thanksgiving. "My stomach is the TARDIS of organs!" But wait... there's more! Inka Kola is pretty damn epic. We revisit Val's hatred of Hall & Oates. "You're just a bucket of piss and vinegar tonight." D-mo posits that the uptick in Doctor Who fandom is just Harry Potter nerds in withdrawal. We have more Wizard Talk with D-mo & Val, as we just can't get off the topic of Harry Potter. We have ugly sweater-inspired hockey jerseys, and a mushroom drop. There is a door knob ban in Vancouver (because they've solved all their other problems). We EXPOSE witches on broomsticks; the truth will blow your mind! If you want a gay potato, get a Yukon Gold, but try to avoid green-tinted russets; they're the Vulcans of the potato world (those words were actually said aloud on air). We have things you didn't know about Thanksgiving, weird Dickens' quotes, and we've come up with the proper way for children to address the penis (inspired by our own 5 year old). Gather the family 'round for a fun-filled episode for the holiday. "I don't know who we are, but I hope we come back next week." Explicit tag achieved!
Solid Cat is all over the place this week. But again, it is the Slumber Party of Podcasts, so expect the unexpected. On this episode, we photobomb, and lament PhotoShop's new payment model. We expand on that in Design Corner with D-mo & Val. We have more Harry Potter goodness, and review alleged sexual preferences of Hufflepuffs. "Some people drink and do drugs, we play with LEGOs." Cinema Time with D-mo & Val. "Speaking of leopards..." Thanksgivakkah. Multiple Things with D-mo. Honest Taglines. Frito Pie! Bakersfield Condors. Why is Val a Coyotes fan, on Hockey Talk with D-mo & Val. "I get a lot to eat at home." "He's awfully chubby for someone who smokes crack." And we finish with some Shadows and Light from Wilson Phillips. Solid Cat: scatterbombing comedy at its best
Get your kicks on Episode 66 of Solid Cat. On this week's Slumber Party of Podcasts, we've started introducing the Danger Diva to Harry Potter, and though she's only 5, she'll be probably be sorted into Slytherin. We wonder why everyone disses Hufflepuffs. Val thinks her Petronas would be a dog, but would like it to be a manatee. "Expecto Petronum... it's a sea cow!" D-mo thinks his Petronas would be a bear, but Val thinks his is more "thunderbirdy." Solid Cat All-Star, Eleni, checks in from London with a review of the Shunga art exhibit we talked about on last week's show. We have a surprisingly large amount of baseball news. We talk about the most awkward moments with our parents, and as parents. I.M. Ripe is great for fruit, but not for man. We start The Beginners Guide of the Space Cowboy Kitchen where we teach people how to boil water... seriously. Old ladies love to run their fingers through D-mo's hair. Trick-or-treating for soup. And this episode reaches its climax with the Halloween Candy Cannon. It's awesome. dingthoomp* Just don't use loose M&M's as buckshot. Ring bell when ready!
It's a quiet week at Solid Cat... AS IF! It's random chaos as always on the Slumber Party of Podcasts. What's on tap this week? Muffnuts? Nutmuffs? Fauxnuts? Blownuts? Whatever you call them, they're delicious. Don't be too smart in your books, they won't sell. Hoisting pitards. NERD ALERT! Ridiculous Photogenic Notre Dame guy. We found the guy responsible for Batman's voice. The Japanese definitely are outside the bento box. We visit the world's first halal sex shop. #creepypervsongs "I don't that Neil Diamond has sex." Let's play the Feud! Wizard talk. And D-mo determines that Dijon is the Buffalo, NY, of France.
It was the Space Cowboy's Birthday weekend, and man, did we party like a couple of college kids and sort of review it on this week's episode of Solid Cat. In no particular order: Lesbian wedding. We lost a day. Yeti Fancy Magazine. Val's a "Hellcat." Harry Potter and cookies. "My restaurant will be called 'MSG Added.'" We have some Oktoberfest fun. The Burger Dance... Into the Night. "Man can't live on ruffled potato chip and onion dip alone... but I'm willing to try." Assassin's Creed cats. Pink Lamborghinis. But honestly, the best part was Top Round Roast Beef. Seriously, check out our review on the Space Cowboy Kitchen.
It's Solid Cat Time! This week's Slumber Party of Podcasts is totally unplanned; seriously, D-mo and Val did zero planning for this show, and we can't really tell. To start, Val pulls "a Shasta." We question the legitimacy of Urban Tarzan, as a chimp is hopped up on scissor. We look older than our age. It's Fashion Week, with all that that entails. We spitz on some Eau de Toast, 'cause hey, bread is beautiful. D-mo smells like rye bread. We spend too much timing linking bread and sex. It's National Taco Day. Driving damages ovaries. We've got broccoli-theme soccer jerseys. Project Runway reviews and picks. There's syrup in Sexytime. If older women on the prowl are "cougars," older Mexican women on the prowl are "jaguars." We despise the fast food upsell. Athens is crowd-sourcing dinner. WickedCon is coming. And yes, we're still drinking your tears. #sadturtle
This was to be the Buffy the Vampire Slayer special of Solid Cat, but in the end, I think we talked more about Christopher Lambert and Highlander. Go fig. However, as always, the Slumber Party of Podcasts is full of random goodies. We highlight our TV viewing, we step on the parents' soapbox, and do a little Bingo and Bondage. Are there aliens in Pittsburgh? There are dead skunks in Buffalo, and it's a twisted tale that features a couple of CSI jokes. In the showcase, the Space Cowboy rambles on about Buffy in a piece just for her, that ends with One Night in Bangkok. We learn which Buffy characters we are. We do the Walk of Shame in Sexytime. We check on Jesus H. Twitter. Buffananza is a gay cowboy porno (it has to be). We're still drinking your tears. "It's that planned out stuff that throws us off." And just in case you're confused after hearing the show, here's the road map for the end of the podcast: pizza - hoedown - jugs - "elder statesman gorilla" - Greystoke: the Legend of Tarzan - Christopher Lambert - Highlander - Adrian Paul in Highlander: the Series - Pokemon. And you know what? All the connections and tangents worked. We totally dominate.
This week's Slumber Party of Podcasts needed a donut run before it started, but Solid Cat covers the spectrum today. We hit up some Gilbert and Sullivan. D-mo illustrates how awesome a guy he is. Val makes weird noises. We highlight random bits o' violence. We're going to drink your tears. She shine the spotlight on rugby ass-play and squirrel tackles. We have fun with Biscuits, Nuts, Flying Squirrels, TinCaps, and Manatees. "I don't have time to smoke a pig." In Sexytime with D-mo & Val, we talk toys. In From the Dojo, we talk diets. It's Goat Week! There is dating for farmers. Mollie B's Polka Party is like Soul Train... for polka. And we waste 90 minutes on The Wizard of Baghdad. Not a euphemism. Oh, and we're going to drink your tears.
It's the big anniversary clip show on Solid Cat, the Slumber Party Podcasts. But before we take that trip down memory lane, we learn the D-mo is a hit with the chicks. We ask what does the fox say? We answer a listener-submitted question on Sexytime with D-mo & Val. We find out where there is the most divorces going down in the world. We laud This is That. Val gets on the soapbox again. And we have a quick Buffy tangent. However, the stars of this episode are the classic clips from shows past. We revisit: Burning Hulk of an Escort; Morgan Freeman; Honey Hole of Hot Feline Action; Mr. Bucket; and Pigeonary. It's a lot of tangents and laughter. And really, that's the pure definition of Solid Cat.
Somebody left the soapbox out, and on a hot day, someone is going to use it. In this week's sassy Solid Cat Podcast... you can't pass up free hot dogs, the Danger Diva wants to punch a fish in the face, and we have Archery Talk with Val (#archerysnob). The world descends into hell when raccoons have opposable thumbs. Why is steampunk popular? We introduce Mary Poppins' much more popular cousin, Titty Poppins. Her companion is Fat Bert, not Gay Bert. "How many puns can we squeeze into this bit?" Tom Hanks in a 'stauche is still Tom Hanks. WickedCon2014. We have some soccer sheep slaughter and giant cabbages! We dissect twerking (we're also educational). Remember, you don't have to be skanky to be sexy; be smart, don't overdo it, sexy is an attitude not an appearance. We judge the Jesus pie. Val & D-mo sing duets of You Light Up My Life and Blinded By The Light. Afternoon Delight could be a tasty sandwich. Muskrat Love? And we explain the trifecta of douchebaggery. So this week's Slumber Party of Podcasts is Titty Poppins, twerking, and us being bitches. Well that's different.
The Slumber Party of Podcasts is back again, and this time, the Slumber Party is both nerdy and sexy. It's a packed show, but does that mean it's a boring show? First up, Solid Cat is now a proud member of the Wicked Radio Network. In a related story, Solid Cat is a member of the Broadcast Basement Fantasy Football League. Lots of podcasting love all around. Back at the show, we order up a plate of Fettucini I-Knew-It-Was-You-'Fredo. We chastise people who don't exercise their fashion responsibility to their friends. We learn that even if you're dead, you might not be. We might get a visit from Child Protective Services. Zoe is not a Latina. Pico Rivera: come for the salsa, stay for the menudo. A single ninja > many ninja. We have Final Friday reference two weeks in a row. To kill crazies, we learn you need to cut off the heart, stake the heart, and burn the body (safety first!). In our new segment, Sexytime with D-mo & Val, we investigate dudoir photography. Jet Noir. Stop duck facing. We learn D-mo's legs are awesome. And we finish with a Double Paws Up! Told ya. Packed show. And a full moon. OH MY!
Good heavens, what a show this week on Solid Cat. This may be our most random yet. We explore or love/hate relationship with the morning. Preschool is like an internship, and kindergarten is like a job. Val suffers from Zoe separation anxiety. We re-visit the Bakersfield Condors incident. Val has a bizarre Lionel Ritchie problem (and it sorta a funny thing). We theorize how reprises became remixes. We follow an uninterrupted train of Lionel Ritchie to Michael Jackson to big cats to Brooke Shields to NeverEnding Story to La Brea Tar Pits to Horror Films. Thanks to Psycho, Val never showered with the curtain closed. We have a ghost cat. Is Val a medium? A bizarre Frosted Flakes reference. It's the Summer of Mediterranea. Chicken & Waffles Potato Chips. "Hey kids, don't do drugs." "Never turn down Morphine in a controlled setting." Yay literacy! Whimsic Alley is awesome (we found Jammie Dodgers). Racquetball Adventures. Pirate Whale! "It's a family show... since when?"
It's the Vegas Spectacular Special of Solid Cat. The Slumber Party of Podcasts hits Sin City... with a 5 year old... and lives to tell the tale. Spoiler Alert: No hookers. In other news, D-mo might be bi-polar. The Danger Diva is surprisingly well-traveled. Things are done in the name of science... or sadism, we're not sure. D-mo and Val celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary (and they said it wouldn't last). But this show is all about Las Vegas. If you want to hear how D-mo and the Space Cowboy do Vegas, you're in luck. We really like Sam's Town. Gambling is all on how it feels. Penny slots are the devil. We visit Cirque du Soleil's Mystere (the hand-to-hand is worth it alone). Gordon Ramsey is everywhere. EVERYWHERE. Ten Things with Val: Vegas Edition hits the show. In the Space Cowboy Kitchen, we review Space Cowboy Pepper Jerky (seriously), and we finish with a lot of unnecessary rambling. Oh, but then there is a condor on the ice. #condorstown
It's the return of Solid Cat. The Slumber Party of Podcasts starts slow, but picks up speed... right around when Val's car catches fire. But there's more to the show than a burning hulk of a Ford Escort. We highlight the geographical flaws of Pocahantas. This week's hashtag is #ihearcrickets. We ask that you stop trying to make Lana Del Rey happen. We find out what D-mo did on his birthday. Where's My Water is super addictive. If you wear a kilt, wipe your ass. We have a couple of special shout-outs. It's super food time with the Space Cowboy Kitchen, a summer shandy revisit, more love for Naturebox, and Ten Things with Val. The Space Cowboy's dad was the king of the $500 car. We also learn she just walks away from burning cars (let it burn!). D-mo's bachelor non-party. He's an Arsenal man. Zoe doesn't want to be 16 & Pregnant. But really, this episode is made by Val's automotive adventures. Wear your seat belt.
Solid Cat, The Slumber Party of Podcasts, delivers another packed episode of wholesome goodness. In the highlight of the week, D-mo get a phone call from IndyCar driver James Hinchcliffe, and he goes total fanboy. Big thanks to GoDaddy.com for making that happen. But wait, there's more. We visit the home of the Chinks, we critique As Seen On TV products, and we ask, "Who remembers the Flo-Bee?" We visit Regretsy, where Etsy fails live, and talk about the Vegan Vulva Cake (you didn't misread that). Val says, "I've got nothing to say about the Chinks, and I've got nothing to say about the vulvas." Penises are just flapping in the breeze, and no one should have their vulva hanging out like one, as that's a serious issue. We have a mid-news fireworks interlude. We fry eggs in Death Valley, and say hello to a sick python. Twelve year old kids are knocking over store for hooker money. Sharknado isn't really that dangerous, especially since the sharks would just vomit and then it's a Chumnado. A kid's superhero has the power to bullshit, and "crapshoot" is not a bad word. Lastly, Sum Ting IS horribly Wong when a newscast pulls a Ron Burgundy and has a Fail of Biblical Proportions. Ho Lee Fuk.
It's the Season 2 Premiere of the Solid Cat Podcast. On this holiday weekend, we tell you that you have to blow your wad on the 4th of July. There is a muppet jail. My brother-in-law is not allowed in Canada. Sharknado, and other SyFy classics. Steven Segal got real fat, real fast. Someone is unlawfully being in a dwelling. We fear fake walls, hippos, and dinosaurs. We have a double feature on the Solid Cat Movie Review. The Space Cowboy Kitchen features a Booze Review. You can't masturbate with your off-hand. We have a inside joke about crepes. We eat a truckload of hot dogs. And one of us stepped on a bee.
The Slumber Party of Podcasts celebrates its One Year Anniversary. We wonder if our episodes titled Benise and XXX: Clip Show are a case of bait and switch. We wonder if Paula Deen really is a flaming racist. We welcome gay weddings, but don't welcome gay bridal registries (hey, we're broke, and you're just get Solid Cat t-shirts). People in Singapore lose their minds over Hello Kitty Happy Meal toys. We praise Serena's nipples. Bikini-clad baristas are the mullets of coffee-houses. We have to medicate dogs due to pirate cannon fire. We have a world-wide weather report. We review the history of bananas, by request! Are there too many conventions in the world? And we feature the return of Pyramid on Solid Cat Game Night. Happy Anniversary to us!
On the Slumber Party of the Podcasts, we bring back Zoe, the Danger Diva, for a second week. And though she was gung ho for it before we recorded, she seemed less interested when the mic was on. Kids. We review a Rapunzel ballet. We wish you a happy solstice. We thank the internet for movie spoilers. You get a real slice of the life of us. We tweet with Food Network and Naturebox. "I'm an apple snob." Some people walk like chimps. The world will always need daredevils. Zoe tells "jokes." The UN urges insect eating. "Raccoon kabobs." Nude swimmers and prude swimmers. And waterbeds are evil. It's a short episode this week, but we manage to fill it with mediocrity.
It's the big FIVE - OH for Solid Cat, as we reach Episode 50. The Slumber Party of Podcasts hits the road, literally, as we podcast while driving (please don't try this at home). Plus, we have the added plus of this being the first episode with an appearance by Zoe, the Danger Diva. It's really like you're taking a road trip with the three of us... while we try to record a show. How will it sound? That's up to you. But in this week's podcast, we discover our car's turn signals are really loud, and traffic is noisy. We credit Newbsradio for helping Solid Cat across Canada. We ask, what noise does a muskox make? We talk beer cans, and stumble upon a farmer's market. We have lunch at Chronic Tacos, and someone says, "disturbingly healthy." We find out Val's dream vacation. And we issue the Solid Cat General Apology, while pleading with humanity not to live up (or down) to the stereotype.
We have the return of Matrice, and introducing Josiah, to the latest Slumber Party of Podcasts, SOLID CAT! We're on a quest for comedy that's going to fail miserably, and Val's accused of walking the streets of the world (hey now!). We ask if lady Mormons are called Mormaids? We learn about Juneteenth, and we have the Attack of the Car Alarms. Do honorary doctorates get you honorary jobs? This week's hashtag is #cockbucket which led us to the child's game, Mr. Bucket. To win, you gotta put your balls in Mr. Bucket. Seriously. We also highlight Kebang from Shambawanga and drop a The Count reference from Sesame Street. Is Pacific Rim just a live-action Neon Genesis Evangelion movie, and we talk too much about the Power Rangers. Hey, it happens.
This week's Solid Cat may go down as one of our best. High praise from low expectations. What's on top today? When Banjo Kat comes in-studio, it will be a hoedown. Germans are more than beer and sausages. Some musical instruments sound like cats, and vice versa. Pico Rivera is a honey hole of hot feline action. Our 5 year old daughter is going to take drum lessons ('cause we're awesome parents). We're getting a new Doctor Who. There is going to be a new Noah's Ark theme park, that'll have a pre-flood pagan temple; the pagan part will be an unmitigated success. What is the Florentine Kiss and why does it sound so dirty. We have beavers in Belarus; yet, beaver hunting has no sporting interest. Then in our feature, we talk gnomes. From Gnome Con to gnomes originated from Priapus to David the Gnome to the Garden Gnome Liberation Front, it's gnometastic. Solid Cat Game Night returns with Name That Tune: ABBA edition. We grab some cougar tails (the cats, not the ladies). We lament the lack of manly men, champagne cocktails are a whore's drink, and Val thinks True Blood's Alcide is a buffer version of D-mo. Ah-wooo!
Did you know a kleptomaniac troll named Hank lives with us? But there's so much more to this week's Solid Cat podcast. We lose a library book, we tell you the best ruler for double duty as a backscratcher, and try to hammer down the new fight song for Solid Cat University. We talk a lot about drums and drum accessories, and then make an appropriate Harry Potter reference. We also throw in a bizarre Tom Sawyer reference, and we talk about last week's Shakespeare reference. D-mo is convinced we sunk the U.S.S. Maine, and remembers the time the doctor asked him, "Why aren't you dead?" You want some bouzouki music, we'll hook you up as we judge potential ethnic festivals. Pie crusts really make or break the pie. Ska Theory is a great name for a band. We say hello to Nohjay Nimpson and Mercedes Bunz. Our closing credits last a whole 14 minutes (maybe that's a little too long). Oh, and click the link for pie.
The Slumber Party of Podcasts strikes again with another hilarious show, chocked full of legendary Solid Cat classy segues. In no particular order... "God's Bones!" Mother's Day fires and failures. "I can't stop crying." Val's rap name is "O. Rida," yes, like the tater tot. "They're the Bentley of tater tots." Curvy cucumbers. Anteater hanky panky. Granny-on-granny violence (someone get GrannyFightClub.com started!). Barky Mingo. Solid Cat Game Night features the new game "Canada or Not?" Howl's Moving Castle is featured on the Solid Cat Movie Review. We unveil or first ever 2-Time Paws Up Award Recipient. The Smallest Woman Alive. And we end with the best ending ever... Clownilingus. It just came to us, very organically, it was awesome. And yes, it's what you think it is. Let's Get it ON!
Solid Cat... crude, yet fascinatingly functional. On this week's episode, we discover D-mo has a Canada problem (he likes it too much), and we talk our neighbor's Mexican parties. We proclaim not everything is better on Blu-Ray. We give a shoutout to our good friends at Newbsradio (who are Canadian), and we throw in an obscure holographic Mexican family at a tortilla factory reference. We talk about the "cinematic classic" Down Periscope, and have a conversation about Waterworld. Alpine music is D-mo's personal hell, and we highlight "Pinterest stress." We tell the cautionary tale about Public Storage so you can learn from our experiences (spoiler alert: it's not a happy story, but does have interesting background music). We're chocked full of unintended puns, and we meet the testicular mascot, Mr. Balls. Yes, you read that correctly.
This week's Solid Cat is being recorded in the daytime. So we naturally talk about ice cream truck music, and if you listen closely, you can actually hear nature in the background. "If corks are flying, booze in flowing." We crack Dorktown's Top 25 Indie Podcast list, and D-mo confesses to singing Dorktown's theme song every so often. We find an actual S-Mart, and then we spend a little too much time on vomiting, but are surprisingly not gross about it (but discover D-mo's an awesome husband). We love TVG and horse racing. We have an odd Eva Braun reference, and two Michelob references, and pound a lot of wine for a sunny afternoon. Soccer saves lives. We foreshadow the tale of a catastrophe, and we remind people we're not being racist, but...
Solid Cat is the slumber party of podcasts. On this week's food heavy show, we talk King's Hawaiian where you should treat yourself to a little spirit of aloha, we talk George's Greek Cafe where all-you-can-drink mimosas are only $5 more. Never ask a Mexican if something is spicy. We explore the inner-workings of a cash-only candy speakeasy. We visit the Salt Lake City Samurai, and we peep Delta. We're falling more and more in love with Naturebox. We're not ugly Americans, just average-looking ones. And Val tries too hard to earn the Explicit tag this week. Fine, I'll tag us Explicit.
On this week's Solid Cat, we're ravaged by Plague 2.0 (so we may not sound that great). We ask: what's the point of tonsils? Was Mr. Rogers a tatted-up military sniper? Are demons on God's payroll? Yes, we went from Mr. Rogers to hell. Our hashtag of the week is #DramaMongers. We speculate that being fat is like smoking (it's bad for you and tough to quit). We have Alpen-squeezin's and the Invasion of the Giant Snails. Asians don't age, and lose trails about when their age is revealed. We talk about the Gingerdead Man movie franchise (you read that correctly). We ask what bad-ass thing are we. We enjoy some fine ginger liqueur and discuss using sheep as lawn mowers (spoiler alert: it's happening now). The ultimate moral of this week's podcast: Do Good, Be Good, and Focus on the Good... oh, and the Space Cowboy is saving all her love for you.
Things said on this week's Solid Cat: "No one benefits when your boobs are on the sides of your belly button;" "Disco Viking;" "Didn't you take French in college?" and "The last thing I want to deal with is a foot long slippery dick" (spoiler alert: that last zinger has nothing to do with penises). And in between these gems, it looks to be quite the mediocre show. We issue the Solid Cat general apology. We fail to grasp the fascination of King Taco. Val fights with her snuggle. We review the latest offering from Old Spice. We do some bra research. We spotlight fellow podcasters. We also spotlight shampooers, a real profession. Irish potatoes are just potatoes. Once again, it's Pyramid on Solid Cat Game Night. We drop another Littlest Hobo reference in passing. We salute young treehuggers. Slippery Dick is not the same as Spotted Dick. We review urinal etiquette. Val laments the length of the last Robert Jordan Wheel of Time book. Vaginal Dryness would be an awesome band name (and D-mo confirms he owns personal lubricant). Val's still suspicious of free pie. And we finish with a little Fandangoing. Did I say mediocre? Man, this is another epic episode of Solid Cat! #staysolid
It's episode 40 of Solid Cat. What do we talk about today? Let's list... -IKEA pillows -We love Dikembe Mutumbo -Strawberries & Cream at the ballyard -Val hates Dodger Dogs -Nachos are just mini, mini tostadas -Buffalo is 8 hours from everything -There is an egg that's a foot long -Madagascar: Big Island, Big Birds -Naturalist vs. Naturist -A nerdy auction in London -Banana Bread -More Assassin's Creed -Hey, don't kill the dog! -The Butchest Man Alive -Closer Geography Theory of Ethnic Food -Chinatown -Don't retweet trends you don't like -You can be too skinny for skinny jeans -If you didn't know, we're fashionistas -And we have the longest credits ever. So, pretty much run of the mill at Solid Cat. #staysolid
Solid Cat starts out in heat. Or at least it sounds like it. But this turned out to be a very packed episode of the Solid Cat podcast. We salute Doctor Who, get on our gay soapbox in support of our rainbow brothers and sisters, and ask you to pick between Hitler and pediatricians. We talk about Avenger ass, and apparently, D-mo is obsesses with Norse mythology, or so he's told. Val wants D-mo to get a Thor's Hammer tattoo, and we debate the concept of piss-controlled video games. We visit The Littlest Hobo and join up with a mime, a deaf boy, and a drifter German Shepherd to stop a robbery. We do something different in the Space Cowboy Kitchen, and dwell on food for maybe a little too long. On Solid Cat Game Night, we play The Match Game (with questionable results). We quiz ourselves to determine which Doctor Who companion we would be, and we wrap up the night with bacon... mouthwash. Seriously. Scope Bacon (look it up). Oh, and there is gravy. Lots of gravy. All over this show. And it was completely unplanned, like most of what we do.
We cover the globe on this week's Solid Cat podcast. We learn a little something about Belgium, we compare Antiques Roadshow US vs. Antiques Roadshow UK, Danish TV inadvertently proves that Assassin's Creed is awesome, we talk about questionable Chinese food places including The Chinky Chicky, there's something about the Pope and Batman, and we hail Canada for their campaign against social farting. And in between all that, we question whether we should do our own Loveline, D-mo examines the Mission Impossible like tension when dealing with workplace lunchrooms fridges, Val owns the TARDIS of lunch bags, and also takes way too long to tell her QVC story. This week's hashtag is #sizzlerbitches, and we go on record and say we like libraries, bookstores, and chicken and waffles. Oh, and sausage, and bacon, and hamburgers, and more bacon.
Last week, we said the next Pope should be from Argentina. And wouldn't you know it, they picked the Argentinian. This week, we brag that we called that shite. But there's more on this week's Solid Cat podcast. We salute St. Patrick who drove all the snakes out in his Fiat 500. We wonder if the English re-released the Black Death, and we ponder why they're called Romanians and Romaniacs. And in the course of 30 minutes, we go from Pope Francis to llama porn (be sure to check out Alpaca Spankers #5). We spit out other forms of blasphemy, and we have a little coffee and cake. On Solid Cat Game Night, we play Who Wants to Be a Millionaire: Pope Edition. We try to earn our Video Games Merit Badge, we wax poetic about Oreos, and we try to explain, what Val calls, "The Fellini of Planetarium Shows." And lastly, D-mo reminds everyone to practice safe spanking - wear a glove. #hotpope
