Our Personal Portal Problems (it's about Scruff McGruff)

This week, Emily and Ky discuss a possibly autistic detective dog take the teeny tiniest, frankly disappointingly small, bite out of crime. Their quest for good bullying advice continues, but at least they know what to do if they find a gun at their friend's house. To be clear, child abuse isn't funny, but then bullying isn't either. What is funny is the seemingly endless out-of-touch attempts by adults to advise kids on how to handle these issues. Emily and Ky are still only endorsing one tip: just do a kip up! Maybe it'll put you in the major leagues? Please excuse our audio while we grow into our new microphones, courtesy of our sponsor, Teddy!

Why Did You Install Rocket Feet? (it's about Astro Boy)

Honestly, there was exactly one scene in this one that Emily and Ky knew they needed to discuss, but it turns out Astro Boy is fertile ground for discussion! Emily and Ky dig into old depictions of the future, the nature of old cartoons, tragedy vs. comedy, good vs. bad parenting, trauma, vocabulary, how robots work, the singularity, how other cultures perceive robots, exploitation, how to fix the timeline, and of course...the scene you gotta see to believe. Get on youtube and look up Astro Boy episode one! Like Ky, you will audibly gasp.

That's not how Tigers Work (it's a Re-release about the Hooberbloob Highway)

Birthday Season is upon us, and we might be a little bit behind on our lives, but that's no problem for you because we have a RICH and STORIED back catalogue of unbelievably precious weird gems mined from the library of Emily's youth, and the hardworking heroes of youtube! In honor of Emily's birthday, we're hearkening back to the very second episode we ever published because it is STILL one of Emily's very, very favorites, the episode where the magic coalesced, pre-tagline, post Ky's Judging Corner.

Why Did They put out the Hummus? (it's about Ky's Valentine Masquerade)

Emily and Ky have been sitting on this secret shorty for a while now, but with Valentine's Day barely a week away, and Ky cooling her heels in Mexico, this is the perfect time to share it! Let this be a cautionary tale for all event planners...if it's a match making event...you gotta mind your ratios. Maybe like, consult someone on how you match people?? And perhaps most importantly, if you don't have any dippers, don't put out the hummus.

Your Boobs Don't Have a Fucking Job (it's about being pretty in the 50's)

Maybe Emily spoke too soon. Maybe your boobs do have a job. We at Wine, Weed, Weird! hope they're raking it in! But if your boobs are sadly unemployed, perhaps you're in need of some beauty tips? Join Emily and Ky as they consider how applicable this advice really is, along with whether these two people are married or not, how pretty this other woman's hair is, just how much taller good posture can make one, and how to survive the harrowing transition from In the shower, to Out of the shower. Emily also shares a heartrending story of her very difficult childhood. Have fun!
