Episode #63, "His Friend Cinamon Hadley,” is now available for your listening pleasure.  Find it on all of the podcasting apps and things.

The boys, upon request, talk about death. Again.

Carl cries. A lot. Catfish declares that Carl's perspective on death is reminiscent of “The Tale of the Three Brothers” from The Deathly Hallows. Carl points out that, despite his own love for Harry Potter, it was heavily cribbed from Ursula Le Guin's Earthsea, but while Potter went to trope-y endings, Le Guin pushed boundaries.  Also, Neil Gaiman's Sandman comics beat Rowling to the Death punch. Catfish loses his place in the argument, and it all falls apart. #onbrand

Episode #21, "Catfish gets a flat. Also death." is now available for your listening pleasure.  Find it in all of the podcasting apps and things (or at the bottom of this post if you're reading this on our webbing site.)

You'll never believe it, but this episode starts with Catfish telling Carl about Catfish's most most recent flat tire. Again. But Carl humors the Fishman, and they end up digging down deep into the complicated and delicate subject of getting a flat.

Listen in awe as the boys discuss how their respective parents handled getting flat tires and the different ways Carl and Catfish have experienced flats in their lives.

Carl almost cries while discussing the various tires he has lost in his life. And of course, this is actually all about death and grieving. Except the first flat tire. SPOILER ALERT: That was actually a flat tire.

Finally, the boys tear Mr. Rogers a new one.  Sorry, Fred.

You know the drill by now: make sure you #subscribe to and #rate the podcast on the apps and things. Tell your friends and acquaintances. But, you know who we never tell? That's right: Fishmom.
