new Insane in the Mundane? it’s true!

August 30th, 2009

Andrew has just finished and posted a new Insane in the Mundane (#2!) over at http://www.valuecube.com/iitm . Ideally he would connect all the pages together, the splash page would try to get you to go there and blah blah blah – but he’s really ready to stop working on this today. So go check out some new music.

Oh yeah, for the purists – there’s a slight crossover surprise with the latest Unlistenable Podcast 75432, but you’ll have to download it to find out what it is!

it’s not you, it’s us (we have a communication problem, baby?)

August 24th, 2009

21 episodes in, and you’d think the producer might know what he’s doing with regard to a web presence.

Not so much.

So yeah, for the record, there is a new page on the site (in the sidebar) where you can learn all the various ways to pledge your allegiance and fealty to Andrew and Karl.

Or you can just click here.

Be our friend on Facebook, or get the hookup in iTunes. That way you don’t have to refresh this page constantly hoping for a new podcast. Although… you could and we’d probably appreciate that too.

avoid renting from the guy with the ironic name

October 5th, 2008


Greetings potential renters!

A former tenant of mine has chosen to repay a debt I conned him into by giving me ownership of his domain, Valuecube.com, and all revenues incurred therein. This is an exciting potential revenue stream for me, since I’m in the process of selling the property he rented.

He will still provide content with his cohort Karl, who apparently maintains his rental properties in a similarly shoddy fashion. It figures that these gentlemen would be friends.

Andrew vs Thomas: Money Battle! (Andrew is a greedy fucker)
the secret Nursing Shortage Conspiracy
the lie of Dead Air
Andrew goes behind the curtain
the pizza dilemma
Karl’s cats and the nerdiness therein
how much fun buying a house is
Andrew makes a 90s music ref way off mic
Andrew’s latest speeding ticket
Andrew’s first speeding ticket
the Marriage Conspiracy
what makes a housewarming party special
Karl takes on the comedy world
Herve lays down the burden

Producer Wanted!

July 16th, 2008

Hello!  Do you have EXTENSIVE PRODUCING SKILLS?  Can you put up a podcast the DAY IT’S RECORDED?  Would you like to join the FAST-PACED world of CONTENT WITHOUT AN AUDIENCE?

Please contact us immediately to take this TERRIBLE BURDEN off of Andy’s shoulders!

Get excited!

July 11th, 2008

That’s right, Rabbit!  This Sunday Andy and I WILL be recording a new podcast.  So hold off on that suicide until Monday, please.  And mention us in your note, even if the podcasts are what drove you to it.  There’s no such thing is bad publicity, right?

THRILL to topics including:  Conspiracy Theory Radio Update, Andy Gets Inned, A Death, MORE Dennis Prager Imitations, and if we have time, the long-awaited bit on Why I Don’t Love America!  Plus plenty more FUN and INTERESTING shit, assuming I can keep Andy from whining about his struggle to find a house.  Seriously, he’s one sad livejournal post away from becoming a goth. 

EDIT:  Thought of another one –  I Figured Out What That Crowd of Hipsters Was Doing This Morning.
