Spitballers Comedy Podcast
Episode: Zombie King & Things That Are Pointy - Spit Hits!
Original Air Date: December 4, 2025
Hosts: Andy, Mike, Jason
Episode Overview
This episode features the award-winning trio of Andy, Mike, and Jason tackling a fresh round of absurd “Would You Rather” questions, dishing out life advice with their signature dad-humor, and conducting a highly questionable draft—this time of things that are pointy. If you’re here for family-friendly laughs, wild hypotheticals, useless (and occasionally shocking) wisdom, and a deep-dive into all things pointy, you’re in the right place.
Main Discussion Segments
1. Opening Banter & Scat Stand-Ins
- [01:28] With producer Al Borland on vacation, “Papa Josh” steps in as First Chair Producer and is promptly "forced" to provide the show’s opening scat.
- The crew laments that Josh’s attempt was “vanilla” and “not taking chances.”
- Andy [02:24]: “This isn’t the guy going up and doing the generic karaoke... This was vanilla.”
2. Would You Rather
- [03:38] Jump straight into holiday-style Would You Rather questions.
a) Urine, Bidets, and Home vs. Public Bathrooms
- Would you rather clean urine off every toilet seat before sitting, or never use a bidet again?
- Jason reveals deep commitment to bidets, even admitting he travels with a portable one.
- Jason [04:28]: "My youngest has never gone to the restroom without getting pee on the toilet."
- Andy [05:18]: “Yeah. We’ve got an occasional flushing issue.”
- Jason gets philosophical (and evangelical) about bidets:
- Jason [07:10]: “A bidet... will wash, it'll dry. It can do all sorts of magical things.”
- Jason [07:36]: “It’s not your fault, but you need to be aware of how awful and nasty you are now.”
- Andy [08:01]: “It's a tough thing to do to reach that point where you're like, oh, how did I live another way?”
- Discussion spirals into bidet travel hacks, Jason’s “vacation bidet,” and the pros/cons of public “number two’s.”
b) Patient Zero or Last Human?
- [09:31] Would you rather be patient zero of a zombie apocalypse or the last one standing?
- Mike brings detailed zombie lore:
- Mike [10:38]: "The whole terrifying thing to me at least of a zombie is just... a mechanical creature moving forward, looking for food.”
- The trio debates whether they'd want to be the first or last, referencing classic zombie films and Game of Thrones.
- Practical survival strategies are discussed, including:
- Hamster ball fortresses (Andy [12:37]: "Would you be fine inside one of those hamster plastic balls?"),
- Self-defense and weapon selection,
- Philosophical takes on being king of a desolate earth:
- Jason [14:27]: “Yeah, I want to be the last one. I made it longest... I’m best to myself.”
- Mike brings detailed zombie lore:
c) Bite Your Tongue or Stub Your Toe?
- [16:54] Bite your tongue every meal, or stub your toe three times a day?
- Everyone viscerally recalls the agony of both, but views diverge:
- Jason [17:13]: “Whenever you’ve got that little bump from one chomp, and then you just keep hitting it...”
- Andy [17:30]: "Every time you do it for the first time, it hurts so bad, and then you’ve got to do it two more times."
- Mike opts for stubbing toes; Andy hesitantly leans toward tongue-biting.
- Everyone viscerally recalls the agony of both, but views diverge:
3. Spitballers to the Rescue: Life Advice
[21:52]
- Advice questions take a turn for the real (and really ridiculous).
Receipt Hoarder Intervention
- Listener Lucas asks for help with a partner who keeps every receipt.
- Jason [22:58]: “Why do you have any?”
- Andy shares how he inherited his mother’s hyper-organization (“She has a book of Amazon purchases she keeps close track of.” [24:12])
- The crew debates digital vs. physical receipts, concludes on snapping phone pics for the best of both worlds.
- Andy [26:27]: “On something important, I'll snap a quick picture... I'm surprised how many times I need to reference the order number.”
In-Laws Living in the Basement
- Logan seeks advice: In-laws promised a “temporary” basement stay that’s stretched over a year.
- Mike jokingly “recuses” himself—hinting it’s too real.
- Jason [32:03]: “What’s your cash value of them leaving?”
- Solutions: Gift them a new home, get a real estate license (they riff the idea thoroughly), or the nuclear option—flooding the basement.
Themed Dinner Fatigue
- Lily writes in—her friend is obsessed with themed, in-character dinner parties from obscure movies.
- The hosts suggest picking easy, low-effort characters or showing up as characters who die early so you can leave.
- Andy [38:37]: “Find a character that's been dead in the movie so you can at least leave halfway.”
Futuristic Privacy Boundaries
- Andy [29:10]: "Is there any futuristic technology you would decline from a privacy standpoint?"
- Jason [29:27]: “I have a kind of a rule... I already know that I've got no privacy. All my data is everywhere. So I don't care. Scan me, whatever, okay? That's how I live."
4. The Pointy Things Draft
[41:21]
- The trio drafts the best—and silliest—things that are pointy. It's a masterclass in absurdity and pop-culture mischief.

- Pointer finger (Jason): “I'm a point. Look how pointy I am.” [47:19]
- Vampire stake (Jason): “That's got to be sharp. It's got to be pointy.” [48:14]
- Vampire fangs (Andy): “Vampire fangs. So I'm taking those.” [48:43]
- Stalagmites & stalactites (Mike): “I'm getting stalagmites and stalactites, baby.” [50:22]
