Episode 9 : Vape Clouds & Indian Mounds

Jeremy & Dave sit down with Kelsey, a young archaeologist, for a late-night style dive into Southern culture, ancient civilizations, burial mounds, celestial alignments, restaurant life, and the strange parallels between fading Southern towns and the ruins of the ancient world. From meth to methodology, vape clouds to vanished empires, the conversation turns toward revival, the human need to seek truth, and what survives when a culture begins to forget itself. A journey through history, mystery, decay, and rediscovery on this episode of Static & Dust.

Episode 8 : Civilization Has Left the Chat

This episode of Static & Dust starts with spirit animals, collector weirdness, and a screwdriver that somehow became the Holy Grail for people who absolutely need to go outside more.But as usual, the conversation takes a hard left into something bigger.After a bizarre coffee shop encounter, Jeremy and Dave dig into the strange rules of modern life: everyone sees the problem, everyone smells the problem, but nobody is supposed to say anything about the problem. From corporate cowardice to social media pile-ons, public disorder, outrage culture, hypocrisy, and the fear of speaking honestly, this episode is about the moment you stop whispering and finally say it out loud. The message is simple: **we’re not afraid anymore.**Not afraid to ask questions. Not afraid to laugh at the absurdity. Not afraid to disagree. Not afraid to say common sense still matters.It’s comedy, frustration, coffee shop chaos, and two friends trying to stay human in a world that keeps demanding everyone act like a malfunctioning algorithm.**Static & Dust:** real talk, dark humor, weird stories, and the occasional potbelly pig spirit animal.**Hashtags:**#StaticAndDust#ComedyPodcast#RealTalkPodcast#OutrageCulture#WeirdAmerica

Episode 6 : Hollywood Fever Dreams

On this episode of Static & Dust, we sit down with filmmaker and actor Joseph Poliquin, also known from Five Nights at Freddy’s, for a conversation full of the kind of behind-the-scenes chaos you truly cannot invent. From Tom Hanks giving him a nickname to bizarre Hollywood moments that sound like they came out of a lost screenplay, Joseph has stories. We get into the weirdness of the business, the awkwardness, the ego, the hustle, and one especially sharp encounter with Stephen Graham that brings just the right amount of bite. And yes, we had to bring up Mr. Cupcake. Any actor who survives the world of Five Nights at Freddy’s and still comes out funny and self-aware is doing something right. We also roll into Skate to Hell, starring Joseph, because a title like that was never getting past Static & Dust without a discussion. It is exactly the kind of cult-title madness we love. Under all the insanity, this episode is really about film, the chaos of the industry, genre storytelling, and taking your shot before it passes you by. We also talk about Joseph’s upcoming project, Death Cabs, a thriller-comedy set for 2027. Watch the full episode at the link in bio.

Episode 5 : Black Eyeliner at the YMCA (2000s Emo)

Back when the 2000s scene was all black eyeliner, burned CDs, YMCA shows, and promoters running on fumes, the chaos felt real. In this episode, Jeremy and Dave sit down with Tony, former touring musician and now a hilarious millennial nostalgia creator, to talk about the wild world behind the emo, punk, and DIY scene. They get into the weird promoters of the 2000s, broke bands, underground venues, Hot Topic’s rise from outsider uniform to mall-approved identity, and the weird way social media is rewriting scene history. From “sellout” debates to elder emo cosplay, this is a funny, sharp, and nostalgic look at what was real, what was ridiculous, and what somehow still matters. If you ever snuck into a show, bought a studded belt at the mall, or argued about Green Day, this one’s for you. #StaticAndDust [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/staticanddust] #EmoNostalgia [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/emonostalgia] #2000sScene [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/2000sscene] #2000smusic [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/2000smusic] #2000smusicscene [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/2000smusicscene]
