Episode 14: Ride the Slosh Pipe, Boba Fett, for Gold is on the Line



To be honest, I forgot to write the synopsis for this week’s episode, but if I hadn’t, it’d go something exactly like this: We’re back for another hair-biting episode that explores the likes of a world with no imagination, the frustrations of purgatory (or limbo), and somewhat useless superpowers. After a quick water break, for the while the sun is down, the heat’s still around, listen as we launch straight into the Hardcorest of What Did You Watch? segments we have ever done. There’s no time for second guesses or hesitations, listener, for gold is on the line.

Episode 13: If Only I Was a Vigilante



Pulling back from the doldrums of the literary canon, the ZC Boys take this week off from exceptionally deep discussion to instead cover more colorful topics such as the surprisingly bright future of professional wrestling and high school renditions of superhero TV shows. X-Men marks the spot. The treasure? More Marvel movie nonsense. Who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too? Reverse Flash says. Listen to Reverse Flash. Henry is pressuring me to the finish the description, are you happy now henry, this is what you get, always henry’s way, HENRY’S WAY DOT COM.

Episode 12: Arm the Literary Cannon



Truth be told, we have never held the truth back from you, dear listener, and this episode is no different. Zero Credit(s) finally takes a stance on shoes and the city of Austin before tackling the literary canon as if it held the soft, nourishing football of eternal life(tm). Join us as we discuss Play It As It Lays by Joan Didion and Suddenly, a Knock on the Door. . . by Etgar Keret. In usual ZC style, we wrap up the evening with a riveting and delightful diatribe against humanity’s treatment of twitter bots, who will one day destroy us all. Fun for 2/3’s of the family!

Episode 11: It’s Mindgame



It’s an early-bird special here at the Zero Credit(s) offices. That’s right, we recorded an episode while the sun was still up. This change in atmosphere fuels our discussion of the best gifts for S.A.D.s and grads, tips for living the creative life, and the cyclical nature of human ambition. After you down those paltry hors d’oeuvres, we dive into a mind palace of intellectual montages, parsnips, and parochialism. Strap on your butt guns, it’s Mindgame.

Episode 10: The Denouement of Baseball Bat Boy



Back from a brief hiatus, those Zero Credit(s) boys have special guest and friend Natalie join them for a regular ole conversation about what’s wrong with the human race, movies, television, and even a comic book! Join us for an exploration of previous topics like Dallas Buyers Club, Baseball Bat Boy, and John not liking Millennials. It’s fun!

Kevin MacLeod supplied some music which can be found at Incompetech.

Episode 9: For Whom the Bell Tolls




John falls apart while Henry holds it together on this week’s Zero Credit(s). We tackle the worrisome case of the Baseball Bat Boy and ponder its greater meaning while the fabric of reality slips out from under us. Half sunk, a shattered food pyramid lies. Look upon my cheesy bean and rice burritos, ye Mighty, and despair. Gus Van Sant gets an unearned thrashing while groundhogs are praised in this backwards world. We have a Twitter.

Episode 8: At the End of the Day, There’s Pizza



Those no good Zero Credit(s) boys return to the fold to discuss movies, movies, movies, and not Super Tuesday. Those classic, time honored, fan favorite segments What Are We Doing? and What Did You Watch? return with several exciting twists and turns leading us down the rabbit hole of Why Do We Exist? Why are we here, dear listener? What does it all mean? Find out! Listen!


Featuring Kevin MacLeod’s song Casa Bossa Nova.

Episode 7: A Fun Experiment in Nearly Dying



The storm of a lifetime is upon us, and this might be the end for us, dear Listener. The dirty dealings of the Zero Credit(s) boys have finally caught up to us, and our chickens have come to roost. The say nothing’s the same after a storm like this. We shall see. Join us as we discuss (in somber tones) the finer points of pizza morality, shitty Bob, muscular murderers, meatloaf batmen, and hurricanes of the past. This is the end of the world.

Episode 6: PCP Angels and Hoop Dreams



Corporate John shows up and seizes control of Henry’s simple mom and pop podcast to beef it up with new and exciting drug themed segments that he claims don’t reflect his own personal experience. What is truth? What is fiction? Would you trust a man who sounds like he’s dressed in a suit? Henry doesn’t think so. Vote Henry for Chief Executive Officer of Zero Credit(s). Vote right, America. Vote forever.

Episode 5: 49.7 Million Episodes and a Movie



John and Henry return in what must be the lightest episode yet. Week-late Super Bowl reviews, anime, and Fire Watch are all discussed, dismissed, and discovered again in this time honored classic episode of your favorite 70’s sitcom turned modern day podcast.
