Twits and Tweets - The Chicken Sandwich Wars

Mon, 04 Oct 2021 12:00:00 GMT

On a blood-thirsty and violent installment of Disinformed, we take arms against a sea of ... thighs? Wings? (Certainly not breasts...) While we delve into the intense and divisive topic of the chicken sandwich wars, you'll see how saucy we can get before someone gets shanked. There's still a bit of pickle in there somewhere, though... so, enjoy! We will also apologize here that we encountered some technical issues during the recording of the episode, so you will hear occasional stabs of static and garbling in the audio.

Gary Heidnik, the Sinister Minister

Mon, 20 Sep 2021 12:00:00 GMT

Hile, friends and Constant Listeners!!! On a traumatic and disturbing episode of Disinformed, we become egregiously disgusted by the exploits of Philadelphia killer Gary M. Heidnik, the Minister of Marshall Street. Confessedly this is one of the more mad and macabre installments you're likely to find on this show - so we would like to warn you that this episode is not for the squeamish or faint-of-heart, so (as always) listener discretion is advised.

And, for the record, as you listen - know that Michael is correct about gastroenteritis...

The Marty Jannetty Murder Mystery Tour

Mon, 15 Feb 2021 12:00:00 GMT

You say too late to start with your heart in a headlock??? Marty Jannetty doesn't think so. On this week's murderous edition, we delve into the shocking controversy surrounding the exploits of an ex-professional wrestler claiming to have killed a man outside a bowling alley in while in his teens... The conceit is the least-jarring aspect of the story, we assure you. Go down yonder on the Chattahoochee as we navigate the crazy brain of MJNDHOUSE. It's a roller-coaster ride you'll never experience sans amphetamines. We also poke the bear (Marjorie Taylor Greene), tease some Dark Tower talk for After Dark, then put Chuck Klosterman on a one-week suspension. Courtney takes umbrage with Michael's casting calls, and we read a Hateful 8-esque communique from Michael's past. This episode is one for the ages, friends!!! Also, for the record, Alan Jackson is the artist alluded to in the show who soulfully sung about the Chattahoochee.

If you thought you'd heard the height of absurdity on previous installments - b-b-b-b-b-b-baby, you just ain't heard nothin' yet. Raptors and pastors and ninjas? Oh, my!!! It's about to get grown-up in here.

Sars-Cov-2 Hot Mess

Mon, 23 Mar 2020 12:00:00 GMT

In another uproariously virulent episode, we take another dip into life in the lockdown, getting querulous in the quarantine. Shane suffers a major minor meltdown, Jon extols the virtue of bidets and begins to question the strength of his relationship against the constraint, and Michael manages to squeeze out more than several sentences while explaining some myths and fun facts about everyone’s favorite outbreak starter kit, Sars-Cov-2. Our heroes complement one another, fail to pronounce defeatist for more than a minute, explain Walgreens’ delivery procedure, dub Arizona the Alabama of the Southwest, realize no one in Phoenix knows how to make lasagna, find former paramours on Pornhub, join Spitsters, beat their boom-mics beyond belief, slanderize many members of Damn the Weather, adore tennis, needlessly reference Saliva, and then chat even MORE about Coronavirus Disease 2019.

Big Sausage Pizza / Last Thursdayism

Mon, 09 Mar 2020 12:00:00 GMT

In this oddly angry episode our heroes suffer an overwhelming case of attention deficit disorder, ask to bring their own cocktails, use Weinstein as a verb, extol the virtues of the Alamo DraftHouse, bless Harvey up the ass, shush catty elderly GATabouts in a theater, forget Michael is there, Bear Down, investigate Last Thursdayism, link Frozen II to homeopathy, get a little more Jesus in their podcast, delve into their deep past, sample a Big Sausage Pizza, and continually avoid all linear thought with an array of scattergories and gory Tory stories. Sources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_people_and_Mormonism Mike misspoke concerning the LDS belief that black people did not have souls; it was believed that they suffered the Curse of Cain and Curse of Ham, and thus their spirits weren’t as pure.

Rules of the Internet

Mon, 24 Feb 2020 12:00:00 GMT

On this week's edition, our heroes take a long and luxurious look into the rules of the internet, with a slew of other interspersed "loose fit" topics to top it all off. Come get weird with us.

Cannibal of Rotenburg

Mon, 17 Feb 2020 12:00:00 GMT

On this disturbing yet darkly comedic episode, our heroes lament their shock-jock status, mourn their sheer volume of incest jokes, evaluate the exploits of the MacLeod, celebrate their massive download spike, unveil the Walrus, issue their first WHOLLY necessary trigger warnings, refuse to let the truth get in the way of a good story, receive the strangest birthday gifts since the Girl with The Dragon Tattoo, evaluate Clive Barker’s phallus-centric artwork, explain Shane’s fascination with death dealers, meet The Muscles from Brussels, delve into their teenage masturbatory habits, adopt atrocious German accents, argue over who picks up the tip, unveil an esoteric Hall and Oates tune, find Pork With Purpose, discover the "mind dick," and spend an inordinate amount of time wading through the mad and macabre exploits of Armin Meiwes, The Cannibal of Rotenburg (who is, contrary to the show setup, not a serial killer).

Trigger Warnings:

- Surgery and body horror / Genital Mutilation

- Sexual Abuse / Sexual Acts

- Violence and threats of violence

- Death, mortality

- Cannibalism

- Homophobia

Corrections: Kevin MacLeod composed music for Scorsese’s 2011 Film, “Hugo,” not, “The Wolf of Wall Street.” Shane also flagrantly mispronounces Mr. Meiwes’ name throughout the episode. Our apologies for this oversight.

Apparently Michael can’t find ANYTHING mentioning the LSJUMB being banned from the Sun Devil Stadium. We guess he was … DISINFORMED
Same for the airline. We guess he can’t trust anything he had heard about Stanford.
