The Bonfire with Big Jay Oakerson and Robert Kelly
Episode: Bog Monster
Date: March 19, 2026
Podcast Host: SiriusXM’s Faction Talk
Episode Overview
In this high-energy and irreverent episode of The Bonfire, comedians Big Jay Oakerson and Robert Kelly (joined by regulars Christine, Paco, Jacob, and other crew) take on a wild ride of blunt humor and no-holds-barred discussions. The main theme revolves around the awkwardness of aging celebrities, particularly in music, tales of adolescent sexual misadventures and “trauma,” and an extended bit about the infamous “bog monster.” Stirred by real news (like the Louisiana mayor’s scandal and a football player’s ChatGPT alibi), the conversation weaves from brutally honest reflections about fame and aging, to crude locker-room camaraderie, to parodies about AI chatbots.
Note: The unsparing, explicit humor is the show’s signature style, so be advised for adult content.
