Podcasting Day: The Great Cosby Hunt ðŸŒ
Added 2021-06-09 12:00:04 +0000 UTC
Happy Podcasting Day! A few weeks ago we called you all cowards who wouldn’t dare listen to a long and terrible podcast...
And you guys loved it!
So we did it again.
That’s how it works. If you tell us you like to be tortured, we’re going to torture you. It’s more about customer service than it is sadomasochism, but it’s definitely both.
This time around the bubbly and upbeat Lydia Bugg is joining us to discuss how you can track the many sex crimes of Bill Cosby through his bibliography of subpar books. She doesn’t deserve this. You should be mad at us for doing this to her!
We don’t even know where to go from here, if you guys like this one. Analyze the comedic structure of the Armenian genocide? Make jokes about transcripts from the 9/11 planes? Track the warning signs for the John Wayne Gacy murders using only his unpublished amateur comic strips about a wacky cat who wears themed helmets?
This isn’t sustainable. You need to stop us. You have to tell us to knock it off and get back to making dick jokes about golden-age Spiderman or we are going to spiral into the void fuck fuck we are begging you to be our anchor we are drifting. Much like Bill Cosby, we are leaving you elaborate clues through our collected works because we can’t believe you haven’t caught us by now.
Don’t listen to this podcast wherever you get podcasts, and for fuck’s sake do not subscribe to and review it.
This is your fault.
This is all your fault, we’re putting it on you.
Much like Bill Cosby in both his book crimes and actual crimes, we accept no responsibility for our actions, and are sorely disappointed in your lackluster efforts to apprehend us.

The bandana thing aka "hanky code" was a real, gay thing: https://historyproject.org/news/2019-04/hanky-panky-abridged-history-hanky-code-0

2021-06-10 08:27:04 +0000 UTCI’m not sure if I was more disturbed by the stuff revealed in Cosby’s writings or the fact that, in hindsight, I was barely squeamish at listening to five episodes focusing on a brutal murder.

2021-06-09 23:43:54 +0000 UTCYou know........If a few years ago you had told me that I would be paying money every month so that someone could read and talk about the books of a convicted rapist...........I would have probably believed you. It's a thing I would do. Terrible knowledge is a lighter burden the more you spread it around.

2021-06-09 21:44:58 +0000 UTCI was surprised you guys didn't mention Cosby's Spanish Fly stand up routine. It's bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAorIG6MZnc It's so ridiculous to me that a culture could take Spanish Fly, a poison that causes priapism, turn it into a dangerous boner drug, euphemistically call that an "aphrodisiac," then forget what it did in the first place and assume that "aphrodisiac" means "date rape drug." That's an insane chain of events.

2021-06-09 21:02:27 +0000 UTCI've said it before and I'll say it again: This is a great idea. I don't know if we're the ones to do it, but it's fantastic.

2021-06-09 19:20:59 +0000 UTCPersonally I like the idea of them having a guest on who has to try and solve the mystery in the book of the week. But I’m also very into the idea of Seanbaby and Brockway playing encyclopedia brown and trying to solve actual mysteries.

2021-06-09 19:13:43 +0000 UTCSo, wait, would the podcast be investigating real life crimes in the mold of Encyclopedia Brown, e.g. stolen lemonade stand money, an eight-year-old's missing shoes, etc.? Or would it be covering the plots of existing Encyclopedia Brown/Nancy Drew stories as though they were serious true crimes? Either one could work.

2021-06-09 18:54:01 +0000 UTCUm, actually, there is a hyphen in "Spider-Man" and Spider-Man was never in the Golden Age, only in the Silver.

2021-06-09 17:48:31 +0000 UTCI’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. A true crime podcast but based on children’s books like nancy drew and encyclopedia brown
