7. Donald Duck, Onions, Rye Bread

Phil and Jake further unveil the mysteries of the List of Every Damn Thing by ranking the Disney character Donald Duck-- a talking duck who drives a car, can’t swim or fly, can’t hold down a job, has a rich uncle and a girlfriend who looks just like him-- plus onions and rye bread. SHOW NOTES: Here's the trailer to the 1993 movie Mad Dog and Glory , starring Robert De Niro, Uma Thurman and Bill Murray as a mob boss. The Donald-verse encompasses all concepts of Donald Duck, so you have the person...

6. QAnon, Nail Clippers, Jessica Rabbit

Phil and Jake continue their quest to assemble the List of Every Damn Thing by ranking the far-right conspiracy theory QAnon, nail clippers , and Jessica Rabbit (from Who Framed Roger Rabbit ). SHOW NOTES: The meditation app that Jake was using just before rolling his ankle is Headspace . We mention Bushwick Bill of the Geto Boys . He said a lot of things that stick with us, but the one that sticks the most is “If it don’t make dollars, it don’t make sense." Jake references an article from The A...

5. Surge, Josta, Prince, National Debt

Phil and Jake expand the List of Every Damn Thing by ranking the extreme beverages Surge and Josta , plus the artist known as Prince , and the concept of national debt. SHOW NOTES: The Democratic Primary was won by Joe Biden months ago but the actual nomination at the convention was still disappointing to Jake & Phil (avowed hermanos Bernardos), though of course we are going to vote in November and so should you. The original marketing concept for Mountain Dew had a L’il Abner type theme. Th...

4. Intro to Back That Azz Up, Generation Ships, Coffee

Phil and Jake continue construction on the List of Every Damn thing by ranking the intro to Juvenile's 1999 hit " Back That Azz Up ", the science fiction concept of generations ships , and coffee. SHOW NOTES: Bundling is the colonial practice where courting young people would be in bed together under parental supervision. It’s hard to tell from the 21st century how this worked in practice. Phil said “time of the American revolution” when he meant “colonial times”. Jake said “ hole in the sheet ”...

3. Land, Sea, Air, Jenny McCarthy, Blood

Phil and Jake continue to expand the List of Every Damn thing by ranking land, sea, air, 1994 Playmate of the Year Jenny McCarthy, and blood. We also sneak in a lightning round where we rank lightning rounds. Please excuse Jake's audio quality; we had technical issues and promise to do better next time. SHOW NOTES: “This Land Is Your Land” by Woody Guthrie probably should be our national anthem. Growing up they only taught us the first bit of the song and not the part about trespassing. Generati...

2. Tommy Bahama, Sardines, Gambit

Phil & Jake double the size of the List of Every Damn Thing by ranking Tommy Bahama shirts, band t-shirts, sports jerseys, sardines and Gambit (the trench coat-wearing, playing card-flinging, Cajun-speaking Marvel mutant). SHOW NOTES: Brian Stow is the San Francisco Giants fan who was beat up at Dodgers Stadium. Phil mentions the bro-country song “ Hard to Forget ” which samples “ There Stands the Glass ” by Webb Pierce. We don’t really get into it on the show, but even in 2020 Phil was shoc...

1. Double Stuf Oreos, Crows, Hank Williams Jr.

Phil & Jake inaugurate the List of Every Damn Thing by ranking Double Stuf Oreos, Oreos, crows, Hank Williams Jr. and Hank Williams. The Charles Bukowksi prison pigeon story mentioned by Jake is included in the collection Tales of Ordinary Madness . Bad songs by Prince got mentioned. After recording this episode, Phil found Purple & Gold , which is questionable at best. It was written as an anthem for the Minnesota Vikings. Here are the details on Katherine Williams-Dunning's death . Far...
