There aren’t a lot of podcasts out there that post a show on Valentine’s Day with the word ‘genocide’ in the title I’d bet.

Anyway, In this episode, Carrie tells us of Alex’s continuing expedition down the birth canal, Luke talks about the 27 million projects he’s working on, we both discuss the dream jobs we wanted when we were kids, and we do a sloppy unprepared review of an excellent album, “Secret Handshake” by Flat 29.

There’s also funny music by Nuclear Bubble Wrap, Jesus H. Christ and the 4 Hornsmen Of The Apocalypse, and a song from “Smash” written by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman performed by Megan Hilty.

So cuddle up by the fire with your significant other and do the nasty while listening to Luke Ski promote MarsCon 2012. I know nothing makes me hornier.

You’d be surprised how many times when I get to this step in the podcasting process, the typing of the description of the episode, I have a complete feeling of apathy and am in no way in the mood to write something pithy there in an attempt to entertain you, the few listeners who actually care enough to come to this page itself and read these things. This is one of those times. This episode has News of the Stupid and funny music by CB4, Lucas, Digital Underground, Carla Ulbrich, and Flat 29, partially depicted here in cake form. Apparently you can fake a cake on the make. Incidentally, their new album “Secret Handshake” just dropped, you should get it.  However, if you haven’t bought the MarsCon 2012 Dementia Track Fund Raiser album by now, then our ancestors fought and died in the Revolutionary War for nothing. Nice job. Oh, and in this episode Carrie and I talk about stuff, like this article about movies.

At this point Luke’s brain is so mired in MarsCon 2012 preparations that he forgot to mention that he had the #1 song on Dr. Demento’s Funny 25 Countdown of 2011. You can read all about it at Luke’s LiveJournal. In this episode, Carrie talks about her High School Drama Club experiences, Luke unsuccessfully tries to impose a New Year’s resolution on Carrie, and the two of them get into an argument about which of the two of them has been trying to retcon their past dating relationship out of the continuity of this reality. We also have comedy & music tracks from Insane Clown Posse, the great Luke Ski, Dan Telfer, and George Clinton. Not to be confused with “Snoopy The Dogg”. OKAAAAY!

In this episode we play a lot of great comedy music recently posted at the FuMP by the great Luke Ski, Scooter Picnic, Devo Spice, and Ookla the Mok, as well as a couple of funny tunes by Jeff and Maya Bohnhoff and Jessica Frech. In News of the Stupid we report on culinary counter-insurgents; Luke rants about dumb public speaking cliches, the non-obscurity of Yukon Cornelius, and post-hypnotic suggestions planted in 22-year-old music videos that still trigger a Pavlovian response in him to this day; and Carrie talks about DuhanCon, the hotness of David Tennant, and tells Sarah about her magical nipple mole. You know, the usual. Thanks for a great 2011, we’ll see you all on the other side of the calendar.

Over a year and a half after the video debut of our truncated yet puppet-tastic episode of our podcast “Luke & Carrie’s Bad Rapport”, we at long last have finally finished our follow-up episode, and this one is even more chock full of awesome comedy songs by some of your favorite acts from the FuMP! We also have News of the Stupid, we meet the respective spouses of Luke & Carrie, and we reinforce the supposition that some of these comedy music acts should probably look into getting a restraining order against Luke Ski considering how much time he puts into making fanboyish tribute music videos of their songs without their knowledge. (Warning: Some NSFW language, you might want to wear headphones just to be on the safe side).

Episode length: 17:58.

I was very tempted to start this description with the phrase “Don’t listen to this episode”. The reason for that is because all of the discussion content is about a series of comic books I wrote and drew from 1987 to 1996, so if you haven’t read them (and you haven’t) most of this episode will be completely meaningless to you. The upside is that there are several special guests on this episode who did read the comics (Carrie, Sara, Josh, Ken, Jered, Breakman Z, Sean Ennis, Blasted Bill, and TV’s Kyle), and they tell me what they thought about them, the good, the bad, and the cringe-inducing embarrassing. This episode does have News of the Stupid and comedy tracks by Nancy White, The Four Postmen, National Lampoon, Adam Warrock, The Consortium Of Genius, The Doubleclicks, Insane Ian, The Muppets, TV’s Kyle, and a rare old Luke Ski song that makes even less sense than all the other stuff you don’t have any context for at all. If this episode doesn’t do anything for you, I sincerely apologize. But hang in there, the next thing we’ll be posting here will be a real treat, we promise. Thanks for listening, and don’t forget each Wednesday to wish your history teacher a ‘Happy Gnome Day’! (See? You’re not going to understand any of this.)

It’s time to get things started for the most sensational, inspirational, celebrational, Muppetational, this is what we call the BAD RAPPORT MUPPETS SPECIAL, done in commemoration of the new full length feature film “The Muppets” written by and starring Jason Segel. In this extra-long PG-Rated episode, we cover the entire history of Jim Henson’s Muppets from 1955 all the way through to 2011 with the current Muppet Studios productions being done at Disney, as well as what’s happening over at The Jim Henson Company. Along the way, we have over 90 minutes of Muppet music & comedy to tickle your funny bone on our nostalgia trip, along with a couple of tribute songs by Tom Smith and yours truly the great Luke Ski.

Before we get to that, Carrie and I do a truncated version of our regular podcast with reports on Halloween, ContraFlow, and WindyCon, another News of the Stupid report, Luke talks about entering a bizarre art contest, and Carrie tells of her & Josh watching a pre-natal puppet show. However if you’re just interested in the Muppets content, skip ahead to the 55 minute mark of the podcast, that’s when the Special starts.

Hope you all enjoy the show, be sure to go see “The Muppets” in theatres, and for the record the big purple witch in the 1971 Muppet special “The Frog Prince” was named Taminella. (Cue Zoot’s final sax note.)
