Look who's trying to make episodes of their podcast again! That's right, we're back and more online than ever. So online, in fact, that we now do the podcast remotely. Join us for one!
In this episode, we find out if Jesus was a simp; what it costs to go to a regligious culinary institute; and if Justin Trudeau is ever going to apologize for a sweater he wore once(his biggest controversy to date)!
How nice of us to come back ..read more

We're back, baby!! The boys have not figured out how to make the podcast remotely because we're very stupid and neither one of us has a computer, but fear not! There are still a couple of episodes in the can, and we've brought you this one! We had the privilege of having Victoria Bautista in the studio to discuss Some excerpts from a Business Success Grifter Book, Chadstone Fashion-Show, M.D., and the premiere of Alex's new parody song, "Hog Problems ..read more

Hello, Praiseheads. Welcome... to an episode of the Praisedown. This is a delightfully bit-heavy episode with Morgan Hartman of LCG and the X fame (album out soon) to discuss a playlist that she made just for the show. Examples of things we talk about: a long bit about pizza, a Thoughts and Prayers about Audio Adrenaline, and the debut of the hit character "Australian Paul McCartney"  ..read more

Hey folks, Alex here. Right off the top, I'd like to apologize for the incredibly bad audio on this episode. We all sound like the vocalist from Coachwhips and for that I am sorry. What I'm not sorry about is how incredibly high-quality the jokes and riffs on this episode are. We have local comedy legend Josh Lathe on to discuss Bob Dylan's weirdly right-wing Christian music. Also: The inaugural GrifterWatch, the boys do Bob Dylan impressions, and a long exploration of The Power Team ..read more

Harold Storey from the Tunes/Toons podcast has graced us with his presence to talk about the seminal Christian emo album The Everglow. Also: An epistle from a listener leads to an absolutely baffling Thoughts and Prayers segment where the boys discuss Psalty the Singing Songbook and the problematic character "Risky Rat," Alex digs up some repressed memories about The Donut Man, and then Alex is too mean to emo music again ..read more

Christmas can be any time of year! We've brought local comic Adrian Corwin on to put the album Punk Goes Christmas into our... stockings.. The episode is very good. We talk about bouncy house prices, do some bad John Williams impressions, and Alex is, as always, too mean to pop-punk ..read more

Ooh baby, the Big Friends brought some out of town talent to the p*dcast today. We have Andrew Clarkston and Justin Massengale on to talk about Chris Rice. Talking points include Avatar: The Last Mimzy, Heath's lifting practices across all aspects in life, and how to live thy neighbor (while sucking thy wife's toes.) WARNING: weird audio on this one.  ..read more

Folks, every once in a while the Big Friends get a wild hair and want to try something out, and here's the thing: it's good every time. For example, here's our very first call-in episode! The topic was Christian Conspiracy Theories, but most of the conversation ended up being about Christian Backmasking. Good bits include: Goblin Characteristics, Wa-God, and the boys learn about IceJJFish. Thanks to all who called, we're just now realizing that we only posted that we were starting to take calls in the Discord, so we'll put it on Twitter next time.  ..read more
