Furry fan favorite (alliteration intended), Pepper Coyote, joins Jim and Sean on the eve of the Iowa Caucus. Songs of Bernie Sanders and tales of soy sauce-dipped testicles and unfrosted cakes round out this second episode of our third season.
Jim and Sean get surreal and kick off the season three opener with the curator of www.grotesque.com , RS Connett. His amazing surrealist art (as well as his "origin story") gives us all hope to know that it's never too late to snatch success from the clutches of insurance sales. Farrah Abraham and he reconstructed tight vagina check in as well, and the Germans continue to love us. Get some!
The first show of 2020 kicks off with the obligatory Don Imus story, as well as a visit from "Lou the Talking Cameraman" of Connecticut cable access infamy. We parse the Ricky Gervais Golden Globes opening monologue and we get woke with Tom Hanks. Jim recaps his annual pilgrimage to see jam band Phish in NYC
Sean the curmudgeon hates on Wesley Willis as Jim tries to honor the man. Rock over London, rock over Chicago. The crew of two goes Cameo crazy as comedian Jim Norton showcases his Chip Chipperson character and the purveyor of "racial stolen valor", Rachel Dolazel get in on the Cameo action. Musical director of the venerable Apollo Theater, Matt Oestricher, tell us why Jim will only make his Apollo debut as an audience member.
It's "taints up" as Jim and Sean return for a holiday episode. Perineums are sunned and we ponder whether Jim can handle performing at the Apollo theater.
There is nothing I can say that will entice you to listen to this episode, and Epstein didn't kill himself.
Jim and Sean triumphantly return from their catastrophic hardware failure from the past week or two. We make up for lost time with not one but two guests, including graphic artist extraordinaire Rob Dobi. Listen as we wax nostalgic with yet another Long Shark viewer from back in the day who has gone on to exponentially more success than your old pals Jim and Sean. Also, 2019 "Funniest Comic in Connecticut" Giancarlo Biondino takes a victory lap and tells us why a career in comedy is much >>...
Technical issues plague your old pals Jim and Sean, however, they soldier through and deliver quality content ranging from the unapologetic Pastor Wilson to former Lone Shark viewer the "Mad Russian". We go down the YouTube rabbit hole and sample the non-PC stylings of Freddie Prinze.
Jim brainstorms some Alaskan reality shows and pays homage to a dead relative...and that's before the actual show open. Sean tells us about the cockfishing craze and we learn what the Vietnamese and the French have in common. Pediatrician Dr. Jay Sutay tells us why he's ready to hit the road with Matt Iseman and Ken Jeong.
One of a kind performer Aaron Bonk talks whip cracking, Renaissance Faires, and his love for all things Tool. Jim ensures that no feelings were hurt over last week's "Polish wedding" episode as he calls the groom in question. ...oh and Sean is probably cranky about something.
Jim attends his first Polish wedding and Sean shows us the different between Slaughter and Slayer. The Connecticut Garlic Festival is a bust and various other nonsense.
Jim recaps the Minnie the missing for six weeks Russian Blue cat store and regales Sean with tales of his trip to Colorado. U2, Bobby Brady, and the Grateful Dead all factor into this one!
Just when you thought it was safe to book has-been comedians, Vinny Beadle is back to share his tales of woe and "Bam". Of course, Sean and Angie are NOT happy...and the yoga instructor who saw the flier about Minnie the missing for 6 weeks Russian blue cat was nowhere to be found so take your Beadle and like it! Oh and Dave Chappelle proves that comedy may not be dead just yet, and that he IS the anti-Nanette
They say you haven't truly arrived as a podcaster until one of your guests passes away. In our case, we say goodbye to the "King of Porn" Ralph Wittington. We speak to friend of the show Jeff Krulik who put Ralph on the map with his short documentary. Jim and Sean also get backed up on the latest Humira commercial. Big pharma never fails to let us down.
Snatching victory from the jaws of defeat, Jim and Sean persevere and deliver an episode after previously postponing / canceling said episode. Jim and the lovely Angie venture into the Met Life arena to take in a Rolling Stones show, and we go down the Muddy Waters rabbit hole on YouTube. We're nipping at the heels of 50 episodes. Get on the train.
Man bites dog. Woman marries dog. This no-guest episode brings the funny just the same with tales of insane British women. Ryan Reynolds eschews ScarJo in favor of gin, and the land down under takes the lead in foreign downloads. Enjoy this throw away "keeper"!
A gainfully employed Jim Sharky shares tales of woe with the Vinny Beedle story that refuses to go away. Jim mends fences with comedian Brian Bargaineer and talks about his genius book "The Liquor Store Chronicles". A podcast that more than this description can cover and...besides....it's freakin' 1AM and I gotts go to to bed!
Vinny Beedle kicks it off with an update on last week's much listened to episode, followed by the literal and figurative "money shot", as Ralph Whittington tells us about his largest collection of personal pornography. Finally, Andrew Malo joins us to talk about what it takes to make a million dollar jacket. Solid episode.
Vinny Beedle is here to set the record straight relative to his dealings with one Bam Margera. Listen in and draw your own conclusion. Howard Stern urges his staff to create fake Twitter accounts to promote his brand (and they say podcasts are bottom of the barrel). Jonny Benson comes on to talk about his legendary 4th of July Party!
Sean enlightens Jim as to the dangers of water intoxication. Insane Clown Posse unveils their 2019 Gathering of the Juggalos infomercial and Sean is once again not amused. Louis CK dares to step on the stage in NYC and the outrage is palpable (/s)
Guests? We don't need no stinking guests. Jim and Sean demonstrate why John Davidson himself wondered why we aren't doing this professionally. That aside, just homage is paid to the one and only Amazing Johnathan in Steve Byrne's phenomenal documentary: Always Amazing: The True Story of the Life, Death, and Return of Amazing Johnathan. We speak your name, Sir.
Legendary entertainer John Davidson regales Jim and Sean with tales from his over 50 years in the entertainment industry, including tales of working with Bill Cosby and OJ Simpson. We cover all the bases from game shows to feature films (and everything in between). That's Incredible? You better believe it!
Documentary film director and the man responsible for the iconic Heavy Metal Parking Lot, Jeff Krulik takes us through his public access beginnings to his successful run as award winning "doc jock". In a relevant bonus clip, Ernest Borgnine shares the secrets of longevity and hyperbole abounds when Jenny falls off the "cliff".
Local emo powerhouses Cometa dose up on some LSP and show why rock is far from dead. From the Beer Man Beer podcast to Connecticut emo rock legends. They may have never heard of Sloan but they seem pretty cool so Sharky and Sean give the Cometa boys a pass. Get some!
Howard Stern show superfan Mariann from Brooklyn check in on the eve of the release of Howard's new book, Howard Stern Comes Again. Sean struggles to understand the appeal as Mariann wraps up her "Comes Again" promotional tour on the Lone Shark Podcast. Also, a crazy woman rants and an octopus exacts its revenge.
Perish the thought! Jim Sharky contemplates an indefinite hiatus for the Lone Shark Podcast. Listen as he masterfully manages to talk himself out of it. Sean shows that he may know birds but his wine knowledge could scarcely fill a thimble. Jim inflates his ego by defeating a 15 year old, and friend of the show Dave Zamboni checks in to educate us on The Replacements.
Let not your heart be troubled, we won't spoil it for those of you who've not seen Avengers: Endgame. What Sean spares you in spoilers, he will make up for in ornithological banter. Also, kratom!
Jim and Sean check in with white collar guy-turned farmer Morgan Gold (@goldshawfarm) as he talks about his efforts to raise ducks and how other predators have other ideas. Beyond that, it's an amuse bouche of podcast solidity for the Lone Shark Podcast faithful. WTF are you waiting for!?!?!?!?
Hey, they can't all be home runs. This one runs the gamut from dead dogs to vaginal rejuvination surgery. Farrah Abraham makes her return and the town of Ridgefield, Connecticut burns the ground to the...well.....ground. Enjoy this abbreviated episode as we cut our losses and gear up for next week.
"We don't need no stinking guests!". Your pals Jim and Sean set a land speed record for number of F bombs dropped in a single podcast. Recorded on April Fools Day, the "holiday" is largely ignored in favor of racism and MLB hijinks with a special guest appearance by Wally Backman of the 1986 World Champion New York Mets.
