Episode #59, "Chicken Egg Cart Horse” is now available for your listening pleasure.  Find it on all of the podcasting apps and things.

As the second arbitrary season begins of the Stop Hating Yourself podcast, Carl and Catfish catch up on all the joy and sorrow of the last month or so. The boys discuss why sleep is better than meditation (it isn't [it is]) and the impact of the presence, absence, and timing of birthday cards.

Finally, in a hail of gunshot-esque drum rolls, the competition for naming rights to the new studio is settled!

You know the drill by now: make sure you #subscribe to and #rate the podcast on the apps and the things. Tell your friends and acquaintances and their friends and acquaintances.

Episode #35 "Celebrating the end of Birthdays," is now available for your listening pleasure.  Find it on all of the podcasting apps and things.

Well well, well…

So you may expect a year in review from the SHY Pod. Defying all podcast logic, as they’re wont to do, Carl and Catfish cast the end of this year not with a "Best of..." the podcast, but a "Best of..." times they have been assaulted with beverages in public.  We call it Happy Threw Beer!

No?  Fine then… I mean, Happy New Year! Catfish TOTALLY knows the words to “Auld Lang Syne,” he swears (and Carl is dishonest if he tells you he didn't have to google the spelling [of "Auld Lang Syne,” not “Catfish”]).

Look at that, another year has flown by. There are few metrics by which the boys measure their time on the earth, but one is whether they have put a dent into the overall amount of self-hatred in the world. How well have they done?  Don’t ask Catfish; he’ll just say “okay” or “fine.”

Hit us up with your resolutions! Carl would love to see your genuine desires for a better life in 2019, and he will do his damnedest to keep Catfish's cynicism from mocking them.

You know the drill by now: make sure you #subscribe to and #rate the podcast on the apps and the things. Tell your friends and acquaintances, but please don’t tell Carl’s family.



And DON'T forget that the boys will be LIVE on stage in two weeks at the Tucson Fringe Festival!  Come check them out and be sure to bring your favorite affirmations (or some other BS) to share.  Show details HERE
