We're joined by the wonderful Alex Hooper! Alex is a stand-up comic you may have seen on Comedy Central's Roast Battle and also all over Los Angeles. In this episode, we discuss the fleeting nature of youth, the importance of living in the moment, and strategies we use to remain feeling young!

Also, Alex is releasing a Pug Yoga calendar to bring light and wrinkles into your life. You can check it out here: https://www.pugyogacalendar.com/ We also got a special email from a fan who gave us some fascinating insight.

Holy Shmow-Zow! This episode is special. "How special?" you whisper to me in hushed, sexful tones. Really special! We watch Season 5, Episode 22: An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bridge! It's an episode that isn't an episode at all, but really a French short film that played at Cannes back in the '60s and uses a lot of time to do not a lot of story-telling! Wow! Far better than the episode itself is the company of our guest Paulos Feerow! We talk about on-set safety regulations and international copyright laws! We are ironically unprepared to talk about an episode that only exists because The Twilight Zone ran out of money! You went to Paulos' show and loved it and you can keep up with him on Twitter @PaulSaysNothing

Holy heck! This episode of the podcast is especially special! We're joined by a person who is two things! Kelsey Gruebnau is a comedian and psychotherapist! Kelsey helps us dissect episode 7 of season 1. "The Lonely" recently made our Top 5 episodes of all type (which, as you recall, was rigged bullshit). In prison on mars, a self-defense murder guy learns that his two favorite things are checkers and his beautiful robot bride! We discuss correctional practices and institutions, the difference between loneliness and solitude, and Kelsey shares some of her professional experience working with inmates and the mentally ill.

Our guest this week is really special and has a pretty good first name! We're joined by indie musician Ronnie Dezsi! We watch episode 34 of season 5 "Come Wander with Me". It's an episode that has been called "incoherent" by some of its own creators! Wow, such high praise! In this episode, a musician trying to swindle lovable hilljacks out of their intellectual property gets stuck in a cyclical purgatory of his own demise! Neato! The three of us talk about commercialism in music, some of our favorite bands, and the episode's clunky narrative structure! Ronnie is a very cool and funny musician.

In honor of having Kelly as a guest, Jeremy and Ron thought it would be fun to get high with Kelly before watching the episode and doing the podcast, and boy oh boy were they wrong!
