#100—A 100 Conspiracy Thunk Tank Celebration
Jul 17, 202001:40:03Tap to summarizeWe made it to 100 episodes! Since one of our first episodes was about conspiracy theories, we thought that it was the perfect way to celebrate this big milestone. I can't tell you if we actually made it to 100 conspiracies, but I can at least say we probably had a combined 100 units of beer. Thanks for sticking with us this long, and here's to 100 more episodes of insanity! Support Us: If you enjoy the podcast, please consider rating and reviewing wherever you listen to podcasts.

#96—A Tribute to Frank Costanza
May 19, 202001:05:26Tap to summarizeHe proudly served his country in the Korean War. Some say he was the best cook Uncle Sam ever had—slinging hash for the fighting 103rd. He was a salesman who once spoke to the Unification Church leader Sun Myung Moon. He enjoys collecting TV Guides, invented an alternative to Christmas (Festivus), and developed a male bra to hold up his bosomy chest. I am talking about none other than Queen's Frank Costanza, who appeared in 29 episodes of Seinfeld. Of course Frank is fictional, but to insane Seinfeld fans like ourselves, he is an archetype in our model of reality. So enjoy this tribute episode to one of the greatest TV characters of all time.

#95—Is Bigfoot Real?
May 11, 202001:44:31Tap to summarizeYou've probably heard of the big hairy upright-walking ape-like monster known as Bigfoot. Maybe you've even seen one of them...or maybe your camera lens is dirty. Also known as Sasquatch, this beast is thought to roam the forests of North America. But is this all bullshit? Or is there something being hidden here? I don't know, but it was certainly fun to get drunk while trying to figure it out. Enjoy, and see you in the tank!

Episode 92—Tales from Luke and Johnny's College House 'The Burrow'
Apr 17, 202001:51:48Tap to summarizeMany years ago, Luke and Johnny Genie lived together in a legendary house. To those who partied there, it was known as "The Burrow". To those who lived in the quaint neighborhood within which The Burrow existed, it was known as the asshole party house that got loudly waisted most weeknights. Either way, there are many great stories from that time. Enjoy our nostalgic and psychotic walk down memory lane as we reflect on our time at "The Burrow". See you in the tank. **Disclaimer: Most characters in this episode—even those based on real people—are entirely fictitious.
