Textual Tension shows up on our podcast - and instantly regrets it! Hang out with us while we talk about their show, Fabio, squirrels, bartending owls, and more. Mike goes to the movies for the first time in nearly two years - and spends it with a fat lizard and a big monkey. The crew and Textual talk about inappropriate movie laughing moments, what they were doing in 1993 (hint - someone was being born). Darin explores the Whig party at Kroger, Mike mentions a fear of chickens and never explain...

The duo got their 2nd Covid vaccine - and Mike turned into Rip Van Winkle for a weekend. Talks of travel - mostly about Mexico. OMG - will these two shut-up about diets and stuff? Eh - not really.

Also - weird dreams (not prepared for class, travelling cross-country for a concert, etc.) Kellog's Jumbo Snacks - what the *quack* is up...

🎉 Happy Anniversary Darin and Libby – our favorite movie theater kid-wranglers! 🎉 Exciting news: IDS is teaming up with Textual Tension for some epic crossover shows! 📻 Apologies for last week's episode, but this week we've got a hilarious Kroger story you won't want to miss! 🍿🛒 A bar in a grocery store?

Check out our latest episode! 🎙️ Mike prefers his food order without extra "ingredients," and Darin shares his encounter with Steven Wright! We chat about comedian Michael Flannery and dive into "The Christmas Butter" concept. Plus, a quick detour into the Theory of Gravity's impact on salt shakers and a wild Target story. The show gets a little sidetracked by a notification, leading to a chat about driving in the snow. Darin's tweet gets him some fame, and we wrap up with listener questions, ...

🎉 Exciting news!

A 2020 time capsule?  Why?  Also - some people STILL think our show is about IBS.  Darin discovers a new spoon, and tells a story about a heist on Jesse Jackson's fork.  People in the family who LOVE to spoil The Mandalorian.  We have some older dog tales (smart and stupid).  A couple of Just Stops, and finally - listener questions which lead us to talk about carpentry, Lost, Stephen King, salsa, Sanka, and bad Christmas presents!

Mike clearly puts no effort into the podcast, and Darin discusses the 51st birthday of Sesame Street!  The Zero candy bar shows up again, and Darin shares stories of shopping cart fraud and impromptu Best Buy customer service.  The two actually agree on movies that are so bad they're good, and this week's Just Stop is interrupted by Mike's unfortunate incident (see first line in the show notes).  Somehow, Pac-Man, Emmet Otter (and his Jugband Christmas), Mario, Superman 3, and MacGyver get woven into this glorious tapestry of the idiotic.  Finally, some random stories that are sure to get Darin in trouble as soon as his wife listens to this episode.

IDS actually gets slightly (but not really) kinda political as we discuss the election results.  Darin reads a book!  The Lord of the Rings play is pretty much exactly how you would imagine it, and we've got three "Just Stop"'s this week!  Tons of listener questions (including Halloween costume stories) - and somehow we throw Zero bars in there!  Oh, and Darin has to watch Matrix 4 and John Wick 4 on release date.

IDS# 6 - We nearly broke the quacker on this one!  Join in while Mike and Darin talk about Bombas socks, Breaking Bad, and people who back into spaces.  Mike offers an apology to both Beverly Clearly and Judy Blume - and then ruins it by ranting about people who judge what parts of food are "the best part".  Darfin reveals his Little Debbie snack cake problem, and how he organizes CD's.  Finally - we end with questions from you!

Darin and Mike talk about the "Backyard Comedy Bash" that had a surprise guest.  Darin shares an exciting update (and potential conclusion) on the giant spider saga.  How hard is is to pronounce Darin?  Just Stop this week includes self-checkout bullying and the record industry constantly re-releasing stuff.  We discuss the latest in Peep news as well as give an update on future guests.  Finally - we answer a listener question about Superman II.

Week 2!! A failed hit on a spider, courting "Pam", musical primates, a drunken soccer ball mishap, a bad choice for robo-killer, and "My Pleasure".
