Eddie!
If you haven’t seen what Eddie looks like yet, don’t do it! Remember what men looked like in their 50’s back in the 70’s, after smoking, eating and drinking themselves into the human embodiment of an opossum that was killed by a drunk hunter’s wet fart to the face? I love Eddie, but I really feel bad for his co-host. How horrible must his home life be that he would choose to sit in the gales of spit and fumes of Eddie’s last desperate gasps of relevance!

Wacky silliness
Absurdist off the wall comedy wackiness from The Legend of Rage himself, Mr. Eddie Pepitone who has found the Andy Richter to his Conan in sidekick Kevin Tienkin. If you’ve ever wanted to see/hear Eddie truly unleashed, with a troupe of characters and sketches to channel his fury, this is the place you’ll find it. Maybe one day a film will be made based on one of these sketches (I’m partial to Driving in the Rain). I’m not sure where in the comedy landscape nowadays it goes this silly anymore, which makes this pod a rare gem. Listen to it and go pick up some Eau de Pepitone cologne

Hack Geriatric Banter
There is nothing better than 20 minutes of geriatric banter before you start the show. Once you finally do it's all hack.

Must listen
Eddie is the perfect Sherpa to guide us through the satire and irony of the fall of western civilization. A great way to start your day.

Eddie equals love
For a man who screams about how the world has ended. And we’re the unenlightened swine being led to the inevitable slaughter. I get the impression Eddie is a gentle, kind hearted person. It’s my belief, Even though he sounds like a living Pink Floyd song. Eddie actually really cares about people and the world, and is rooting for humans to succeed. Because, if he truly believes the world is over. Why would he even try? The fact he dose this podcast and chooses to find joy in life, to me proves, that Eddie is love.

Great Pod!
This podcast is quite the treat. I’ve been a fan of Eddie for quite a while now and hearing him banter on a regular basis has made me an even bigger fan. Mr. Tienken is another great comedic mind that I’ve been pleasantly surprised with.

Eddie Pepitone is a national treasure
As an added bonus, Kevin Tienken is at the very least a regional treasure

I love Eddie and Kevin
On my darkest days this podcast brings me back to life. I’m a long time fan of both of these guys. You’re missing out if you’re not tuning in.

Hilarious and rad
It’s like a dad and uncle chatting after the thanksgiving they both got kicked out of. Solid.

Funniest comedian alive makes a hilarious podcast, unshockingly
I tune in every week and just die laughing at all the things that usually make me sad. It’s a rare gift to be able to do that and Eddie is the best at it. Kevin is the perfect compliment too, never heard of him, but hope to see him flourish. Thanks for the pick me up guys.

Happy Fawkesing Birthday!
Dear Bitter Buddha, My wife and I just wanted to take time from our Guy Fawkes festivities to wish you a Happy Hopeless Birthday! Your pod really speaks to our existential sensibilities We think you’re hilarious while you depict the most dire, sober truths—the definition of high art in our book. We find it freeing to abandon all hope in a hopeless humanity. We love the despair and we love you! ~Al & Margaret

My favorite podcast
Can’t make it through the week without my guided meditation with Eddie Pepitone:)

Prolific Pepitone prompts plenty of plaudits
Echoing the many positive reviews here. Kudos to eddie and his new co-host for delivering a wonderful show every week. Kevin is a much better producer/sidekick than the last guy who was kind of a creep. Even through a covid infection Eddie brings the funny!

The Funniest Comic Ever
I mean, Eddie- Eddie is just all heart and doom and he’s so funny I can’t breathe. Guided meditations, characters, stories, I hang on his every word. How this man isn’t a world renown sensation I genuinely will never know. You will not regret inviting him into your life

Eddie Pepitone is a national treasure

Know the world is ending and want to laugh as is burns, this is the podcast for you! Apocalypse Soon, the podcast with no upside !

Dark and timely
Hilarious podcast. I couldn’t recommend highly enough.

This is not an ad for Chatsworth Acting School
Eddie Pepitone is like the Tom Waits of podcasts. Sometimes you get gentle and earnest melodies. Sometimes you get freaky clown music. And that’s pretty much every episode.
Liz from Minneapolis
Ugh…
Eddie is GODAWFUL. Just terrible. I mean it. And that’s exactly why I can’t stop listening. Because I’ve done a number of terrible, unspeakable things over the course of my life and this is what I deserve, this is what I need to subject myself to in a futile attempt to atone for my crimes against God and humanity. Although I will say he’s got some good cooking tips; I made some vegan penne pesto the other night and I have to admit, it turned out pretty well :)

Eddie, of course, is the greatest
His “life coach,” however, is an insipid California dip. For the love of God, Eddie, do your therapy off the air! This is supposed to be where I go to laugh and/or worsen my existential depression!

All upside
It’s too bad we had to destroy civilization to bring out the best in Eddie, but it’s nice to see the man hitting his stride.

Love the pod not the guests
I've loved Eddie forever and this pod is a great place for all of his comedy to come together for max laughs per min. Especially recommend ep2 if you are adjusting your brain meds! Loved Koester, Kindler, Adomian and Todd Glass but not fond of most of guests, more no guest eps please!

Great if you are a paranoid narcissist
He’s talking about driving in the rain while I’m driving in the rain. He was talking in meditation about how dirty the stage curtains are the same week I got bit by spiders hanging some up for a concert. They were talking about how much it cost to be rescued in the woods the same week my brother bought a hike safe card to get free helicopter rides. Don’t even get me started about the couple that lives in his head!

My laughter echoes through the decrepit buildings I service
Eddie, your existential dread style of comedy is the only thing keeping my diabetic heart pumping as I wander the Midwest grocery store cleaning the bathrooms and floors for a measly paycheck. I go to my horrible, 2003 Grand Caravan and smoke my Marlboros 83 cigarettes as it rains, heavy it rains, listening to the mad cacophony that is your Brooklyn bleating babble which is saccharine sweet to my type two diabetic ears.

The right man for the job
End times catharsis from the best person to capture it in spoken work, Eddie Pepitone!

In the right corner we have Eddie Pepitone whose a vegan animal rescuer who speaks the truth about this country and opens up your mind. You make the call. :) This is hands removed some of the greatest podcasting you'll ever be privileged to hear. Thank you, Eddie.

Morbid & Hilarious
Only Eddie Pep could take the most morbid subject matter and make it hysterical.

Absurdity and Realism had a baby.
What a great show. Eddie manages to present the world we live in with a brutal yet comedic approach that let’s the listener see it through Eddie’s absurdist lens. Amazing.
Tommy Jawnz
Wonderful humor for misanthropes
Ever get to thinking that this power of positivity phenomenon is a sham to keep us distracted from acknowledging how we’re getting kicked around? Well, this podcast is a welcome response to that drivel. Eddie is great as always and so are the other people on there.

companion for end of times
Thanks to this podcast I can laugh during the end of the world. Eddie is brilliant and hilarious in this, he knows how to mix real issues with hilarious anecdotes seamlessly.

Best content value you’ll find all year
How is this amazing content available for free? Why is the sky blue? How do airplanes fly? Someday scientists will find the answers to all of these questions and more, but in the meantime just be glad you can get in on the ground floor of this investment for free. In a few months it will cost possibly millions to listen and you’ll be able to sellout shows of you recreating the first episode you’ve inevitably memorized from repeat listenings. Don’t be a fool, download now , and enjoy. On the other hand, is it possible that Eddie Pepitone himself, savior of those in between the lower class and the middle class, know as the liddle class, has been bought and paid for by the oligarchs to provide more free content to further distract us from protesting ? I SAY NAY, NAAAAAAAY, there is in fact nothing better to listen to WHILE protesting with your Apple AirPods in than this podcast.

A voice...
...crying in the wilderness. Truly a prophet of our times.

I’m hooked! Can’t wait for the next one from Eddie Pepitone!
I am lucky to hear him do this podcast. It is great to look into our apocalyptic future with ridiculousness and righteousness intertwined with fear and hopelessness. There’s a sidekick, a bandleader, and a guest. Eddie’s band are all all anti-vaxxers and believe covid is a hoax which is a fun dynamic. There is a segment where they read emails from fans (apparently Jeff Bezos loves Eddie). We learn about Eddie’s vocal lessons in Paris when he was starting out! Fun for everyone - this is the best podcast right now!
