The Worst Idea Of All Time
Family Time 10
•
Battling through some very dodgy audio, Tim and Guy pop open the perpetual time capsule that is the TWIOAT mailbag. The episode becomes a bit of a time capsule itself, with potential ideas for the future of TWIOAT around every corner. The Twilight series? An unauthorized Cats sequel? An Andy Batt spinoff series? And, of course, what’s to be done about the approaching storm that is Rob Schneider’s tour of New Zealand? Check back in a year to tell us whether we actually followed through on any of this stuff.
Thank you to the foster brothers Danny, Jake and Colleen for sending in CATS 2, which you can check out here.

Good Times: 11
33:42|The Jack Kerouac and Neal Cassady of podcasting take to the conversational highway in this week’s episode of Good Times, learning a little bit about Michelle Pfeiffer and a lot about life. Guy is curious about his own lack of curiosity towards the world. Tim pitches a Worst Idea season surrounding the 1982 film Grease 2: More Grease. Appropriately, a new guest arrives to impart some homespun wisdom on the boys as they roam around looking for wisdom or enlightenment or something (we’re not actually sure, Tim could only listen to the audiobook sample)Our intro music, “Los Angeles,” courtesy of Eyeliner.Get episodes early and in video on our Substack!

Good Times: 07 (w/ Tim Key)
45:00|Roll them bones! Let it ride! Hit me baby one more time!

Montgomery and Timothy A. Batt presiding. Guy has been reading a lot of detective novels and is in an interrogative mood (also caused in part by another book he’s read, Padgett Powell’s “The Interrogative Mood.”) Tim, meanwhile, is full of answers, bringing some hot, current pop culture takes on the woke mind virus and the Kendrick v Drake beef.Our intro music, “Los Angeles,” courtesy of Eyeliner.Get episodes early and in video on our Substack!
Good Times: 03
