Planet Moneygrubber is also a great one just for Lemon's rendition of GAMER'S HIP CLIP and Jimmyfrank's Red WTF and Blue (the WTF stands for WHAT THE FUUUCK)

Another good one is The Private Life of Sinead O'Connor, because it weirds them out in ways Adult Babies and dragon dildos couldn't.

I love this podcast, I always listen to it at the gym. Not a good idea, cause I once dropped the bar during bench presses from trying not to laugh too hard at that one Garfield fanfiction you guys read. By the way how many of the reders are goons?

Only Isfahan (Squint) and Bunnybread that we know of. John always struck me as a goon, but apparently he isn't.
The worst part of being unemployed/working 5 minutes away from home is that I usually listened to the podcast on my morning drive, so now I tend to fall behind.

My favorite so far is the creepypasta one. (I don't have the number, but it is title is "The Episode is Coming From Inside Your House!" from February of 2012). The voice acting on the Barney story is simply amazing, especially the dad. He plays it so straight and so well that it doesn't feel like a poorly-written story but an actual radio comedy piece.

Jimmyfranks is legit the reincarnation of a 1950's radio announcer. Guy's got some serious chops.

I gotta say, episodes where the readers are loving furious at the content they are reading are by far the best type of episodes. You can taste Lemon, Jimmyfranks, and Portaxx's anger.

Victor works in medicine, which is why he was specifically tapped to be in on the fatty episode and the mothering one too, since there was plenty of people being Wrong About Medicine in both. He's such a mild-mannered person, however, that he just gets sad and depressed instead of angry.

Honestly, I'm surprised he still answers your emails after Sissykiss.

You know, there was a time I considered compiling some of the worst MLP stuff I could find and send it to you guys, but I decided not to because I thought exposing the readers to that kinda stuff was too cruel (and besides I'd have to trawl the internet looking for MLP poo poo and gently caress that).
Holy poo poo.

Yeah, have fun with that one. I was recovering from illness and already feeling a little nauseous before recording. The initial parts were tolerable, but the incredible magnitude of grossness eventually wore on me. I really just had to keep my head down, later, and try not to think about what we were reading. I have no idea how we got through the whole thing without anyone quitting or vomiting.

Plus, our brave little Acier did the editing on it. He has listened through that monstrosity several times.

God bless him. He is a true man.

On the plus side if you still have fangirls after this, they've been tempered in the fires of hell and will follow you to the ends of the Earth.

This was the first episode I've heard and I was almost crying with laughter on my commute yesterday at the woman who seemingly posted her credit card info on a message board TWICE and *shocker* got scammed.

Such a great podcast, keep it up guys.

For me it was when they started going on about Back Alley Dave, until I realized that this stupid, stupid, insanely stupid and crazy lady essentially mutilated a defenseless animal because it would not stop acting like a (very scared) animal.

If you're slow like me, I solved it by deleting the Holmes podcast, unsubbing, and then resubbing and redownloading the deleted one.

Back Alley Dave's back from Iraq and needs fifty bucks.

He'll do monkeys for free, though. He loving hates monkeys.

Don't you worry about episode 100! It should be ready for release soon.

Honestly, going by the subject matter of the more recent couple of episodes, I wouldn't be surprised if episode 100 consisted of nothing but 1 hour 2 minutes of you guys screaming in sheer agony, terror, and pain, intro, bumpers, outro and stingers included.

The ska bands thing is honestly my favorite (relatively) recurring joke you guys have made, if only because Jimmyfranks sounds so earnest listing all the names.
Did all the readers contribute names or was it a one-man job?

Something I've been wondering for a while: why is The F Plus called what it is?

The podcast's tagline is "Terrible Things Read With Enthusiasm". In the American school system, an F is a failing grade. An F+ would be a failing grade, but a high failing grade at least.

I thought so too! The audio was definitely evocative of the Flash stuff he and Lowtax used to do back in the Jeff K/Fireman Comics days.

So did Lemon really just waste 10 bucks on some random blowjob hollering at his mic all for the sake of a joke? Man, he coulda bought a relatively decent fast food meal with that scratch.

My assumption is that the name of the project scares people off, especially in the case of bronies ("What, 'Irregular?' I'm not irregular! They're just gonna make fun of me!"). I was the one trying to put together the brony episode. I got close: I had a fan artist and a fan composer lined up, but even they relied on other people referring me to them because it's not like I have a who's-who in bronydom written down on a Post-It next to my monitor.

The fanfic writer thing is where it fell apart. I wanted at least somewhat prominent content creators in the brony fandom; not just any bronies would do for me. This was because content creators tend to have a more well-rounded impression on the ins and outs of a fandom rather than the hooting peanut-gallery platitudes and cheerleading of the pure consumers. I even tried sending Robcakeran53, the writer of My Little Dashie, a Skype message, but he never replied. Neither did the other two or three authors I'd been told about. Aside from that, I was having a hard time finding a good couple of hours to schedule for the two bronies I did have on board and it just sort of fizzled. The time frame for all of this was from November 2012 to February 2013.

But yeah I guess now that we skewered My Little Dashie a bit, I'd hazard a guess that Rob's probably not interested in being interviewed.

Please tell me you tried My Nationalist Pony.

Pretty much anything where we read either a story or a script gets a lot of listening time from me. The sock-transformation episode, the Transformers fan-script, and the Resident Evil/CSI/Star Wars & Robotnik script episodes are probably my most-played.

The Resident Evil/CSI/Star Wars episode is straight-up your best episode. Goddamn but do I love how insane and well-read it is.
A close second would be Roy Orbison wrapped in cling film because of the sheer, wholesome joy the readers are experiencing.
Third would be the cartoons one because of Kumpot's seminal role as Michael Barrier.

I haven't listened to this podcast in years, wanna get back in but there's probably a lot of new content. Is there a particular recommended episode that is benignly goofy like the sasquatch lady or Roy Orbisson Wrapped in Cling Film instead of horribly legit disturbing and upsetting like that one live event where they read some awful book excerpts that should've landed the author at the very least on a watch list?
