Episode 65 - Hey let's start just doing the show notes in list format: Chris is making a photo album for his sister. Chris expands on his feelings about not enjoying phone conversations. Coury's daughter has begun dating and Coury doesn't even own a shotgun. Coury has historically been an easy mark for door-to-door salesmen but is apparently starting to grow a spine. Coury's son is deathly afraid of spiders because he once had to go to the bathroom near one. Does anyone use the features that get added to Discord? Chris made Coury a mix-Minidisc but has yet to send it to him because packing material costs an arm and a leg. Chris sent Coury a letter typed out on calculator printer paper. Coury has been digitizing old VHS tapes and came across his home recording of the 1995 MTV Video Music Awards. Chris no longer wants to use a time machine to see Def Leppard live on the Hysteria tour. Coury is still done with Michael Jackson which is why he can't stop talking about him. Chris got a Radio Shack-branded calculator and is suspicious of its need for D-cell batteries. Coury wants to start recording the show "on location" more often. Coury is having trouble getting motivated to make YT videos. Obviously so is Chris, judging by his output in the last few years. Send in a question to [email protected] #heresmypodcast #HMQFY

Episode 64 - Coury learns a new word and wears his shirts twice, vanity sizing is annoying, Chris hung out with a dude who only wears kilts, Cloak & Dagger is scary for a kids movie, Chris finally conned his friend into watching Jaws, The Temple of Doom is the grossest Indiana Jones movie, the guys answer e-mails about why Discmen are unfairly maligned when compared to other classic portable audio devices and what non-gaming items they most regret parting with, Chris sent a couple of machines over to the local typewriter wizards, and I don't know why I have "cucumbers" written at the end of my notes. I have no recollection of talking about them, but let me just take this opportunity to say that cucumber water is disgusting. The only beverage I ever want a cucumber in is a white linen because it has enough alcohol to cover up the taste. And one of Coury's kids interrupts the podcast AGAIN. When does school start? Oh yeah, send in your questions to [email protected]

Chris is saddened by an old woman driving a classic Honda Prelude far below the speed limit, Coury got a new car but he's afraid to drive it, Chris knows the same two bits of trivia about Dr. Pepper that everyone else who knows them knows, Coury ruined the Michael Jackson biopic for his daughter, Chris asks some hard questions about Foo Fighters, Coury talks about the passing of his father, Chris yaps about typewriters again, Coury is interested in Chris' girly-looking watch, Chris sees his globetrotting sister for the first time in like a decade and as a result goes down the genealogy rabbit hole.

Listen I’ve had a few tonight, so like whatever. Chris doesn’t have a 4k Blu-Ray player but is buying 4K movies, Stanley Kubrick was the man but we all already knew that, Chris has some non-misogynistic thoughts about how men and women socialize differently, Coury Watched 21 Jump St. the recent movie not the old TV show, Chris ran his mouth about typewriters again, Coury might buy his kid an electric guitar, the guys both agree that Ikea rules, Coury assumes that because Chris is a chemist he knew some poor lady who died of methyl mercury poisoning, Coury is dialing back his coffee intake and replacing it with creatine like Mark McGuire, I put something in my notes here about ash beetles but I don’t know why, I guess Coury said something about honey suckle and that reminded Chris about Eucalyptus trees being invasive (is Eucalyptus supposed to be capitalized?), And the last thing I put in my notes is something about mocktails which I don’t recall because I make mock-mocktails here at CGQHQ, meaning that I make cocktails. Lately I’ve been into gimlets. Gin, lime juice, and simple syrup. Check it out.

We're back after an 11 month accidental hiatus. I'm going to be really honest and admit that I forgot to take notes, so I really don't remember what we talked about except me talking about typewriters and Coury talking about his son playing baseball. I mean, do we really ever talk about anything? It's always one or two hours of babbling, and the only reason that I try to list out the stuff we talked about here in the description box is so that someone can find this episode later if they're looking for a particular conversation.
