Decoder key: Exercise fads; UFC + bogus philosophy + targeted ads; endurance bores; bitcoin nonsense; Alex Jones. 

It occurred to me recently how much podcasts have in common with the AM radio of my grandfather’s carport, eternally nattering and fizzing on with a slow baseball game or a distrait and bloodless narration of business affairs. Where is the automated service that edits today's podcasts down to the 0-3 minutes of worthwhile content they might contain? When does that come out?  When does that come out.

I feel enraged, engorged, enlightened, and enfrightened. Satire is truly holding a mirror to society's Pandora's box's paradigm.

See, this is why my main podcast is a little something called “living in a humble little place where soil comes halfway up the walls outside and you have plenty of time to think”. It is suffering.

The only podcast I listen to is 3 British people trying to discuss literature while a 4th keeps interrupting them because a BBC exec will get angry if they go over exactly 45 minutes

Coded signals from Robert Plant is stored in the balls

Pentagram Sam Submitted Triangle Man in the Octagon. What does it mean and why are there three shapes?

Josh Krauter

This is why men feel the urge to reject another Zeppelin reunion and embrace more Robert Plant solo albums in the nanosecond before ejaculation.

I like the podcasts where they talk.

Steamed_Grahams

It means Pentagram Sam knows how to pick UFC fighters, and you can ask Particle Man and Person Man about that.

Brian Sutton

Joe Rogan told me to only buy bitcoin when the price is super high because that means it's worth more, and that's what I do in between my 7 daily doses of Malenhantz usepromocoderfkjr2024

Is Beef channeling Pat in panel 5? Because you just know that Pat has a lot of opinions about non-fungible tokens.

Clench and Cheese

I want to get trapped in the back seat of a smart car with Pat so he can make me eat vegan gummies while he tells me how the blockchain is SUPPOSED to work.

Once I discovered the Art Bell Tape Vault on Spotify my podcast experience truly became that of me in high school, camping in Mendocino County with the scouts, all whilst Scoutmaster Chan directed us to listen to the real truth as Coast To Coast AM blared from his transistor radio.

"I get asked all the time, if I could only take one supplement, what would it be? I like EXISTENTIAL DREAD. It provides me the nutritive-emotional insurance in case doomscrolling Twitter all day doesn't give me what my body needs."

I just feel bad for Chris, since capturing this so well must have taken a lot of soul-destroying research

Achewood

Hard to convey the true nature of a four hour meandering episode using brevity

AA

Which podcast is that? The host of BBC’s In Our Time does exactly the same thing

drrockso20

I have an entire folder of batshit insane conspiracy theory/pseudo science books that is exactly the kind of nonsense that Roast Beef is talking about in panel 6, with evocative titles like "The Saturn Death Cult" and "Cosmic Death Fungus", the latter of which is probably something Lyle has caught in the past

Minda H

You got it in one

Jeffrey Rubinoff

Is this one sharable or patron-only? Because I know a lot of people who I would like to share it with.

Jeffrey Rubinoff

I was just about to say, is this the one where if you are listening on the internet instead of radio, they go on a bit longer while the tea is brewing?

Nicholas Williams

There was an Art Bell episode once where he or some insane mountain man that he had on as a guest described being terrorized as a child by long, emaciated ape arms that would come out from under his bed and pin him to the mattress. Ape arms. I have scoured the internet for evidence of this episode but I guess it's once of those things that I might as well have dreamed.

GruntyGinMan

Could be! You might have to start scratching the bottom of the barrel like /r/High Strangeness or something, although it sounds familiar. The Mel's Hole episodes to me will always be the Apex.

Christopher Craft

I'm still raw about Triangle Man taking an L even after he got off the poisonous seed based oils and started microdosing

Andrew Gillies

Those sound hilarious, do you have a link?

Tom Morris

Podcasts are not always like this. Chris, you ought to check out The Blindboy Podcast. https://www.patreon.com/theblindboypodcast Maybe even appear as a guest? I'm sure you would both have much to say about being a creator on the 00s internet.

Chris Martin

What's that, Robert Plant? A new Achewood? Wonderful! I'll log on right away!

Eric Sorenson

Huberman would like a word: these protocols are serious life-and-death business, not the stuff of mockery.

Achewood

Cam Hanes garrotted that guy with a Keep Hammering bandana

I think it may also mean that Telegram Sam has a shapely alter ego
