In this Drunken Bullshit episode, we have a long discussion about our current projects, our writing processes, and our dreams of one day getting published. Then as the booze really begins to take hold, we talk about the awesomeness that is Into The Spider-Verse, the disappointment of the new Pet Sematary movie, What books we're currently reading, accidental book purchases, and a lot more drunken nonsense. There's plenty to unravel in this one!

BOTM #1: Hair Of The Dog Review
Tuesday Apr 16, 2019
Tuesday Apr 16, 2019
In our first Book of the Month episode, we get drunk and do a terrible job of reviewing Hair of the Dog: Book One, by Matt Holland. We give this book 4 out of 5 whiskey shots. It's a title any drunkard can get behind. Check out the synopsis below.
"Magic has cured every disease, wiped out hunger, and made most fuel obsolete. The only problem it hasn't solved is war. But there's no profit in peace is there?
Layla Redford is a mercenary for hire. She's good at it too. Way better value for money than her competitors. Her latest contract? Track down and put the boot to a group of kidnappers who've been dragging innocent people off to the desert.
A good job and a rare chance to do some good. But Layla's only lead is disgraced military sergeant, Dominic Asruan. And she's not the only one on his trail. Dominic is wanted for murder, with a half million bounty on his head. Cash like that is drawing all the scum out of the desert: cannibals, bounty hunters, slavers, a guy who dresses like a snake. Layla has to outsmart, outgun, and outfight them all if she wants to finish her job and free dozens of innocent people.
And get paid, obviously."

DBS #5: Gettin' Drunk And Talkin' Comics
Friday Apr 12, 2019
Friday Apr 12, 2019
In the drunken aftermath of our last episode, we talk and slur our way around a slew of interesting topics: comic books, movies, superhero genitals, our writing failures, anime, manga, public restroom etiquette, annoying teenagers, terrible rappers, the book of the month.
We go on and on about any and everything while enjoying the finest of beverages. Good or bad, this episode was a lot of fun to record.

#15: Talking Characters And Why You Can't Kill Off The Joker
Tuesday Apr 09, 2019
Tuesday Apr 09, 2019
We capsized the boat immediately in this episode and never quite managed to right ship. We do talk a lot about comics, movies, and why people need to chill out in regards to changing famous characters for various adaptations. This especially rings true when it comes to the character of the Joker, who has another iteration coming out this fall with Joaquin Phoenix's Joker movie.
The booze was flowing in this one, but it was a lot of fun to record.

#14: The Hemingway Effect: How To Create A Perfect Author Persona
Tuesday Apr 02, 2019
Tuesday Apr 02, 2019
In this episode, we discuss how to create an author persona that'll get people interested in you and your work. We also give examples of various famous writers such as Ernest Hemingway, Hunter S. Thompson, Kurt Vonnegut, and Stephen King who were as famous—if not more so—for their author personas as their work. And it wouldn't be a DPW episode if we didn't get into some strange topics and random rants.

#13: Book Of The Month And Work Rants
Tuesday Mar 26, 2019
Tuesday Mar 26, 2019
In this eventful episode, we choose our first DPW book of the month. We pick between five awesome books submitted to us by our Twitter followers and decide which one we'll read and review as our first ever book of the month. After all that, we go into some personal business by ranting about the awful parts of our day jobs. That's right. We have crappy day jobs just like everyone else.

DBS #4: Great Fictional Drunks And Awesome Irish Writers
Friday Mar 22, 2019
Friday Mar 22, 2019
In what is essentially part two of our drunken St. Paddy's day episode, we continue the drunken buffoonery as we discuss the greatest fictional drunks in literature. Then we try to straighten things out by going over some of the best Irish authors and the work you should read from them. Though, things go sideways quite a few times in this one.

#12: A Toast To The Drunkest Authors Of The 20th Century
Tuesday Mar 19, 2019
Tuesday Mar 19, 2019
We kick off St. Patrick's Day 2019 with a special episode. As we slowly grow more inebriated, we discuss the authors who have been labeled the greatest drunks in 20th-century literature. Of course, it wouldn't be a true DPW drunken episode without some impromptu mayhem. And as we near the end of the episode, we hold a hilarious reading of one of James Joyce's raunchiest love letters.

Tuesday Mar 12, 2019
Tuesday Mar 12, 2019
We give you a break down of the quickest ways to get your work out of the slush pile and into print. Then things deteriorate as we get drunker and find ourselves sidetracked by acting out what Billy Bob Thorton from his role in Sling Blade would be like in a sex scene. Finally, we end things on a better note with some movie talk.

Friday Mar 08, 2019
Friday Mar 08, 2019
In this Drunken Bullshit episode, we read and make fun of 15 awful excerpts from the Twilight series. Which proved more difficult than we thought due to just how terrible they were. Then we go into a bunch of drunken nonsense including our opinions on the sequel to Space Jam starring LeBron James, the dog version of John Wick, and try to figure out why the dog keeps yelling at us.
