It's April 9th, 1998! El Farto drops a bomb and a horse in the weather report, the guys are still inspiring middle schoolers, Whisky Dick calls in for some clarification on his new name, and if Arizona can just invent a Major League Baseball team called The Diamondbacks then Machine Bolt and El Farto may consider starting The Van Nuys Garbage Possums. News goes well but then everything goes south announcing this week's live remote. Paint it on, suck it in, prop it up, and Look Your Best® as we welcome sponsorship dollars from The Mop Shop Rock and Roll Performance Hair Center For Men in Studio City.

We Spent Our Budweiser Cards (with Dave Holmes!)

A comedy fiction podcast from Ben Harrison (The Greatest Generation) and Dan Kennedy (McSweeney's, founding host of The Moth Podcast ). Someone drinking at Casa Vega described the show as, "It's like Alan Partridge but at a 90's alternative rock station. Or like Comedy Bang Bang, but 90's radio." That person was killed by shadowy members of a nautically themed gang. Here's how we describe KPODD 101.3 since we're still living: Two L.A. morning radio DJs return to the airwaves in the 1990s after being suspended and sent to rehab. Machine Bolt and Él Farto are on a savage journey to better living. The mics are always on a little too early and each episode starts with the accidentally aired unvarnished small talk that lurks behind their positivity personas. The oddest characters invade their lives, and the occasional mysterious rips in the space-time continuum add a note of science fiction weird to the morning drive. You may have questions: Are they the only ones trapped in the 90s? Why did a giant python constrict the HR lady's Chihuahua? Why does this version of reality include the SeVan® conversion kit that turns most economy sedans into custom vans by appearance at most angles? Is Station Manager Gene from the future? Why does Producer Lynn dress like Kurt Cobain if he hosted a bird watching show on NPR? Start with a recent episode. Then jump around.  Because there's no right way to travel back or forward in time. Everyone knows that. Right?
