We decided to chill out with this episode and talk about books and writing. We go over what we hope to get out of our upcoming BookCast series, The Coming of Conan the Cimmerian. Then we get into a discussion on the work of H. P. Lovecraft as well as our current writing productivity. Don't be fooled, though, the title is accurate. We start the episode off on a raunchy note. So don't listen to this one with the kids around!
And if you can, please donate to help Australia as they deal with these horrific fires.

With 2019 coming to an end, we felt like it would be fun to revisit all the things that made this past year great and not so great. We discuss the things we failed at, accomplished individually and through the DPW brand, and we go over what we hope to accomplish in 2020.
There's a lot of drunken nonsense in this one, and be sure to stick around until the very end for one last dose of low brow stupidity to end the year off right.

We get really drunk in this episode and things go off the rails immediately. We hit all kinds of topics including some fun movie talk. We do manage to discuss Joker and the upcoming Batman movie with some semblance of seriousness, but it doesn't last long.

In this episode, we learn how to write poetry. Or at least we try to. We also try our hand at awful slam poetry, read some pretentious modern poetry, and essentially make asses out of ourselves. Not like that's hard to do.
