Crashing David's Birthday Party

Send us Fan Mail Dolly died on Tuesday. August 25 will be remembered for years to come as the day a beloved and iconic entertainer added her incomparable voice to heaven's choir. Our most loyal listeners know that David's filters have largely been shredded. And now there's no hope for this date to be headlined as his birthday, which it is. The Bible's Golden Rule says we should only do to others…

"Snuggle up, Mother… let me peek at your tramp stamp…"

Send us Fan Mail The visuals in our Zoom recorded experience were so exceptional today that we may explore how to deliver FC 2.0 on YouTube. Picture David moisturizing before his sultry, throaty whisper to his lady while imagining he's taking a long draw on a cigarette (a prop pen in his hand taking the place of the genuine tobacco stick). His exposure to neighbor scrutiny is self-inflicted. By…

This Is Who I Want You To Think I Am

Send us Fan Mail We tiptoed dangerously close to the precipice where old men grouse about all that has changed (for the worst) from their good old days. The target catching most of our ire seemed to be centered around the technological creep we are all experiencing. David may be getting sucked in. His inaugural voyage in a Phoenix Waymo was downright pleasant and his 14-yr old grandson is trying…

Words: Do They Really Matter So Much?

Send us Fan Mail As much as we enjoy delivering weekly podcasts of distinction (emphasize the "stink" sound), one of us actually has to work for a living. So this week's episode featured The Comedian in conversation with Dr Dave while awaiting his flight to Phoenix. He gets to be funny in front of some strangers. It's been a really rough recent few weeks for David. Upcoming performances will be a…

How David Looks Like Adam (Eden's Original)

Send us Fan Mail This title deserves an asterisk. David was generally not happy with the surgeon's response when he asked why his belly-button no longer exists. A med specialist, for sure, but he drove outside his lane by deflecting with a biblical reference that was intended to cower our beloved comedian into silence. But years later—thanks to the bravery of FC 2.0—he's found his voice.…

Smug Brits & Siren Songs

Send us Fan Mail Give us a listen and then a rating. We're inspired to use 1-star reviews in marketing. No longer will we be held hostage by the British voices in our head who squash our dreams with their critiques under the guise of genteel respect. Sure, we may be dazed…even deluded. SIREN spells (trans? Charlize? does it matter?) are powerful. But we are really trying. In fact, under darkness…

"Nope!" David digs in.

Send us Fan Mail Ahhh! If only we had contracted with some Psychology Today expert to give us feedback based on listening to the podcast today; maybe then David might hear enough to open his heart to the world's beauty. On the surface, of course, this is a soccer reference. But it also shows up in his unwillingness to concede his window seat on a long flight. And—in ways that only a trained…

Vintage Stink

Send us Fan Mail eBay sellers know this strategy: take some old useless stuff, tag it as "vintage", and mark up the sale price accordingly. Who pioneered this money-making savvy? Did it emerge from some give-and-take between spouses as an observant wife tried to shield her caveman hubby from publicly embarrassing the family name? Our own exchange today was authentic, even if the shirts we wore are…

David Red Cards the World

Send us Fan Mail Dr Dave tried to convince David of the beauty in watching Team USA win their World Cup soccer match last night. In the exchange, we all learned how our funny co-host has grown over the years. Whereas he once held disdain, he now simply positions himself as aloof . Warnings about the slippery slope into referee-level narcissism seemed to fall on David's thick-skinned,…

"Stella!! Buy more snacks!!"

Send us Fan Mail Listeners were treated to some real-time engagement with today's episode. First, Dr Dave had to scurry off to google who yelled "Stella!!" in an iconic movie. (It was NOT Rocky.) Having failed to lock up the "desire" we discovered (supplying your movie hint), we moved into the confessional booth once again, protesting why we must be shamed for our snack addictions. (Queue up Dr…

Feeling Amish Disdain

Send us Fan Mail As a result of recent storms and even tornado touchdowns, Dr Dave was without electrical power for 90 hours. It's the kind of crisis that mustn't be wasted, so the funny guy of our FC team poked endlessly and elicited plenty of whine-soaked stories from his recently showered partner. David seemed most surprised about atmospheric shunning felt from some of the good doctor's…

Push Broom Truth? "Mmm-hm."

Send us Fan Mail It's not exactly a lie. But we're not wrapping up the whole truth for a meal, either. Why do we insist on sparing loved ones—or strangers—from the unvarnished truth? When St Betsy delayed telling David about the wild silver vine growing from his nostril's soil bed, was it the truth we need from our most dependable monitors? Sometimes we push broom. But if we do, someone needs to…
