Odious explains  why the show was on hiatus for a while — he and the Cockroaches took their show on the road — all the way to the Moon! And because there’s so much commuter traffic on that route now, it took them a whole year to go out and back. But it was worth it to play  at one of those glitzy cockroach casinos there. Dudley Sanders brings his world famous magic all the way from the 2nd floor of the Econo Storage Building! And guess who’s in the studio audience? Why, it’s your new favorite Supreme Court Justice!

A Better Episode 11: Not Down for Whatever

[http://odiousari.com/podcast/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/wanted-poster-300x300.jpg]http://odiousari.com/podcast/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/wanted-poster.jpgIn this episode, Odious decides not to enter the KCRW radio contest because the theme is “Down for Whatever” and he’s offended by such an idea. As a result everyone on his show is down for whatever because that’s how his life goes. Special guests are Marvin Milquetoast, Janet Plattsburgh, and Boomer Radcliffe-Ortiz. The Grim Reaper makes an appearance and tries to provide some sense. And the Cockroach Quartet plays their new hit, aptly named, “Down for Whatever.”

Pride Edition: Frederick the Critic, Sylvia the Juggling Spider Monkey and CPA, and A Minotaur

Morose Minotaur by Joey Jenkins [http://odiousari.com/podcast/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/minotaur-by-joey-h-jenkins-300x300.png]http://odiousari.com/podcast/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/minotaur-by-joey-h-jenkins.pngThis is the Hour of Misery: Pride Edition. Odious and the Cockroach Quartet perform an original song called I May Not Have a Whole Lotta Pride, But Luckily I Got No Shame, after which they receive unsolicited feedback from a British critic named Frederick, voiced by the horribly talented Joey Jenkins. Sylvia the Spider Monkey, a professional juggler and CPA takes time away from her busy schedule collecting dollars on the 3rd Street Promenade and preparing people’s taxes to thoroughly destroy the studio in a pique of anger. The Hootch Booze ladies give in to spiritual bankruptcy caused by total investment in online reputation and social media status. And Odious discovers that the phone still works when he gets a call from a Greek mythological creature (also voiced by alarmingly creative Joey Jenkins) who just moved to L.A. from Ancient Greece and is trying to adjust to the feelings of isolation and dubious self worth that such a move would cause. Topics covered include pride vs shamelessness, unsolicited feedback, violence in juggling and tax preparation, filing for spiritual bankruptcy, devaluing opinions, and being caught between worlds.

The Grim Reaper, Our God Shirley, The Flying Rearendas, and Our Dear Listeners

In this episode, Odious has just returned from an endurance art tour of Koreatown and feels the need to spend quality time with his listeners. Listeners call in and Odious offers top shelf life coach advice. The Grim Reaper shows up with a new message from Shirley (There IS a God, and her name is Shirley.). The results are in, the metrics are assessed and human beings are in big effing trouble. The Grim Reaper sings a song on Shirley’s behalf about it. We are truly blessed to have The Falling Rearendas (Formerly known as The Flying Rearendas) on our show. Sophia and Guiseppi Rearenda had sixteen children to be used as free acrobatic labor and it really has paid off. There are only six of the Rearendas left, but they keep trying and falling and will eventually go extinct one of these lucky days!

Thanksgiving, Hillary Clinton, and Presidential Candidate: Wheat Toast

In this episode Scuttles, Skitters, Creepsy, and Cottentail of the Cockroach Quartet worry that Odious is ill and they try to revive him with green jello — a trick that Creepsy learned while living at the Kaiser Hospital cafeteria. Odious helps his listeners with their Thanksgiving holiday celebrations by having guest Celebrity Chef Tom Tofurkis on the show answering food preparation questions. Unfortunately, Odious send Tom into an existential crisis by pointing out the conflict of interest that Tom is perpetuating by being a turkey who cooks other turkeys. Odious Ari as Hillary [http://odiousari.com/podcast/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/hillary-150x150.jpg]http://odiousari.com/podcast/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/hillary.jpgSecretary of State Hillary Clinton addresses the nation on this special episode! She shows her commitment to the cause of glass ceiling shattering by defining what characteristics a winning female presidential candidate would need to posses. Granted it’s a list of impossibilities, but let’s not shy away from challenges! Hillary wows us with a song for the ages. And can she scat!?! Yes, she can! The Hootch Booze ladies endure the election with the help of Hootch. And we meet the first entity to declare its run for 2020 and it’s a piece of wheat toast. Wheat Toast feels liberated by Donald Trump’s win and declares that anyone or anything are now free to take on any position they want. Odious is encouraged to become a surgeon with no medical background. Why not? No experience needed, after all.
