In this episode, Franson is back in the studio with Libby, and they have a year or so's worth of Truck Stuff to discuss with you. From Franson's men-only "glee club" to Libby's two seperate poopacalypses, the original LAF bring back the funny like a couple of sailor boys. Stay tuned next week for even more shenanigans. Poobits!
2013-02-141h 09LAFCASTEpisode 45: A Nightmare On Ball StreetWelcome back, folks and girls! In this episode, Libby and Daniel bring a brand new co-host to the fold, Dan's brand-spanking-new wife, Jess! Results are...mixed, as Jess proves to be the single most distractible person LAFCAST has ever heard, Libby included. Despite the boys' best efforts to retain some semblance of topic clarity and talk about the wedding, Hurricane Jessica blows right through the city and creates one of the most random, rambunctious podcasts ever recorded at 7:00 in the morning. Beebles!
2012-06-301h 25LAFCASTEpisode 44: The Pooping PirateWecome back! In the second half of Libby's conversation with the legendary Josh "The WonderLlama" Stifter, the two gentlemen dive into some true confessions, starting with the lighter treasons. They discuss sleep-deprived hallucinations (including what may or may not have been the first Minnesota pterodactyl sighting in literally HUNDREDS of years,) R-rated theatrical experiences, and Alice Cooper as the "perfect man." Also, Libby admits to killing Steve Jobs in a particularly disturbing fashion, Josh is forced to spend some intimate quality time with Carrot Top, and James Cameron gives Libby the opportunity of a lifetime. It's all here in...
2012-04-191h 22LAFCASTEpisode 43: Lost In The JazzHey there, podfans! In this week's episode, Libby is breaking new ground all over the place as he is dragged kicking and screaming into the new millenium with his first Skype-conversation podcast! The person to pop the proverbial SkypeCherry is none other than Flush Studios's founding father, Joshua "Ubiquitous" Stifter. Libby and Josh careen recklessly through topics such as Mexican Halloween, dogs as a replacement for human contact, Josh's "open relationship" with his mother, the curse of being both busy AND lazy, and the pathetic nature of trying to flirt with girls via email. Josh also opens up about...
2012-04-161h 09LAFCASTEpisode 42: Don of the Dead (Unedited, Uncut, and Un-Policed)Greetings! The LAFCAST boys (along with Don Frisk) are trying something a bit different this time around...in an effort to preserve quantity at the sake of quality, Libby's letting his audio OCD tendencies go, and spending ZERO time editing. That's right, all the ums, ahs, and awkward pauses are PRESERVED for your inconvenience! I'm curious to know what you think about the "unfiltered" aspect. Better? Worse? Let me know on the LAFCAST Facebook page, or find me on "the Twitter" @lafcast. Pokerhouse!
2012-04-051h 15LAFCASTEpisode 41: The Night Of A Thousand BleepsWelcome back to the wonderful world of LAFCAST, as Libby and company try to make up for lost time yet again with this long-delayed episode originally recorded in November! The 'cast starts off with a very EXTREME welcome from Libby, Franson and Daniel, and from there degrades to the lowest possible level (and never bounces back) as talk turns to the more disgusting side of life. Libby proposes a theoretical third stage of diarrhea, Franson ponders the Biblical roots of the word "tits," and Daniel doubles our pleasure with a selection of "Two-For-One Diseases." Franson goes on a gay...
2012-03-0559 minLAFCASTEpisode 40: Sasquatch TeatsWelcome once again to the Land of Podcasts for another truly edifying installment of LAFCAST. In this episode, Libby is joined by Jon for a riotous affair featuring a scientific exploration of pizza-borne diseases, as well as a reminiscent journey to a long-past summer beach trip (and, with it, a cursory glance at the economics of Free Beer Bongs.) The lads go on to spend FAR too long talking about the minutiae of the cast of Can't Hardly Wait, discuss mouth-watering Gatorade flavors like Arctic Peach, Flung Spume, and the ever-popular Plain, take the beef jerky industry to task...
2011-11-011h 20LAFCASTEpisode 39: Tainted By DoubtfireHello again! In this episode of LAFCAST, Libby is joined by Daniel for a nerdtastic gathering. After a brief eulogy for a phone, the boys dive headfirst into a discussion about Star Trek: The Next Generation. No stone remains unturned here, from a unfortunately sexy intergalactic Gun-To-Your-Head to tales of Worf's brother, Borf, to Libby's description of both his intense nerdiness AND his hatred for nerds, to an unsettling revelation involving watching Star Trek and proximity to females. Talk eventually turns to other topics, (you're welcome,) such as a brand new cooking show for Tony Danza, the ethnicity of...
2011-10-141h 24LAFCASTEpisode 38: A Formative BoobIn this episode, Libby is finally joined by Nina "The Black Orchid" Hartsel before she is yet again stolen from him by the Wicked Witch of the Pacific Northwest. Nina proves quickly that girls talk about the same dumb stuff that guys do, as Libby and Nina traipse hand-in-hand through fields of inane topics, from the many disturbing colors of urine to the care one must take when pronouncing "Caulk." The two ponder the possibility of subliminal advertising behind Melon Week and Meat Week, pontificate on Nina's Magic Nose, and pore over the concept of octogenarian nude modeling. After...
2011-08-171h 19LAFCASTEpisode 37: Little Orphan GreasyWelcome back! In this episode, Libby and Jon are joined by an oh-so-special guest, Don "Star-Wars-Tattoo-Butt" Frisk, as they embark on another jumbo-sized podcast voyage. They start the ball rolling by turning their critical eye to the sculptures popping up in downton Eau Claire, pontificating on the subtle nuances of dueling billboards, and analyzing the merits of "Kofi Annan" as a porn name. Libby keeps mis-saying the phrase "Transitive Property," Jon finds a whole new spin on both sarcasm and retail, and Mr. Frisk gets the All-American Rejects and Hinder confused somehow. Before the episode is over, the boys...
2011-06-171h 32LAFCASTEpisode 36: Teenage Mutant Ninja TurtlenecksWelcome back, Podience, to the kickoff of LAFCAST's 2011 "Summer Of Swing!" Franson is screamin' to go, along with Libby and Daniel. In this episode, the boys try to equate every group of pop-culture misfits with the Heroes in a Halfshell, whether it makes any sense or not, Franson tests the limits of people's tolerance for racism, Libby spews a fountain of ooze, the legitimacy of MC Hammer's lyrics are called into question, Daniel makes some sweet sweet Lorenzo music, we witness the beginning of Operation Faison Love, the boys test the potency of Turtle Weed (tm), Charlie Sheen is...

LAFCASTEpisode 34: A Holly Jolly Hot Dog ChristmasMerry Christmas and welcome to the second annual LAFCAST Holiday Spectacular! The gang's all here for the holidays, and they've got a great show in store for you! They talk about all kinds of Christmasy topics, such as vasectomies at the dentist, date-rape vs. manly coercion, and Jon's gender-confused firstborn. Libby reveals his childhood jealousy of Christ and offends black people AND gay people with a flippant remark about Kwanzaa, Franson poo-poos the Golden Birthday and gets Baby Jesus confused with Hitler, Jon reveals how thorough and creepy a pizza boy he is, and Daniel comes up with a...
2010-12-231h 16
LAFCASTEpisode 33: Treat Sheet FeatWelcome back to the December To Remember! Libby, Franson and Daniel return from their "hianus" and head back to the studio for their first recorded podcast in over two months, and boy, do we have a treat in store for you! A 2-lb, 4000 CALORIE treat, which Franson is charged with eating. This gastronomical feat is the main focus of the 'cast, but wait, there's more! How about a brand new catchy slogan in favor of AIDS? How about a story of stealing Halloween candy from a baby dressed like a horse? Still not enough for ya? Cuz WAIT, THERE'S...

LAFCASTEpisode 32: The Green Nautical Mile (AKA The One With That Annoying Crackling Noise)GUTEN TAG, and welcome back from LAFCAST's traditional autumn 3-month hiatus! The following podcast hails from early October, but due to personal issues (school, musicals, gettin' a girlfriend,) Libby finally throws it all together to kick off a December to remember. This episode features the long-delayed return of "ShaDaniel" Kelly, as well as a brand-new, very special guest...a REALLY ANNOYING CRACKLY BACKGROUND NOISE! Sorry, folks, you'll just have to bear with it...we couldn't fix it in post. This prodigal podcast features the (un?)timely death of a 100-year-old hussy, a revisitation of the Sonny Bono impression, the...
2010-12-021h 06LAFCASTEpisode 31: Ninja DumpsIn this episode, Libby and Franson fail to bury the lede by any stretch of the imagination and get right to the movie review right away...they tackle the Back To The Future Trilogy (spoiler alert: they like it.) Talk turns quickly to Franson's fear of poorly made fake boobs, a ringing endorsement for Uncle Rickety's FizzyPop, and altogether too much talk about sharks, from their fist-shaking hatred of Shark Week to a frank discussion about sharks with arms, as well as a new spin on the term "jump the shark." Also, lightning strikes twice as Franson reveals why...
2010-09-1859 minLAFCASTEpisode 30: Stupid WigsIn this long-overdue episode, Libby is joined by "Mixmaster" Jon Kelly for an episode of GRAND PROPORTIONS...well, not really. In actuality Libby continues his streak of not-that-funny podcasts with an episode chock-full of wig jokes, childhood stories of PBS erotica, and inappropriate Tennyson references. The boys debate the merits of Randy Quaid, defend their views on time travel, and start (and quickly stop) talking politics. All this plus Libby's endorsement of animal cruelty, some serious TV talk, insults at Jon's babies' expense, and a review of Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World await you in the LEGENDARY Episode 30! Charge!!!
2010-08-261h 12LAFCASTEpisode 29: A Hot Helen KellerIn this episode, Franson returns to the fold for a...well, admittedly lackluster reunion with Libby. The original dynamic duo tackle subjects such as the Super African Mario Brothers and Franson's tenure as a Country Jam employee. Libby realizes that fun facts are never actually fun, and Franson performs quite a lot of physical comedy that nobody will ever see. The boys respond to an ACTUAL HONEST-TO-GOODNESS LISTENER FEEDBACK for once, and find themselves defending the face of Mystery Science Theater 3000. Without a movie to review, Libby and Franson instead decide to review people, and Franson tries his hand...
2010-08-021h 04LAFCASTEpisode 28: Blenda Christmas and the CornLogIn this overly long episode, Libby is joined by Team Zorbee and a very, VERY special guest, Young Master Erik "Stinky" Nelson. We had to kidnap him to get him here, but he's here, and believe you me, listeners, we take full advantage of him. The boys drill Nelson on topics ranging from Power Rangers to his unborn child. Jon and Daniel talk about their re-re-revamped podcast, and Libby compares insemination to Indiana Jones. The gang speaks of such things as favorite childhood television shows, the lost history of Secret Origins: Young Jon vs. Young Libby, and a very...
2010-07-241h 34LAFCASTEpisode 27: Human PizzaIn this episode, Libby is joined by Daniel for what seems like the twelfth time in a row as they crack open another 2-liter of carbonated podcast delight! This proves to be the podcast of Libby's Epic Stories as he regales the audience with seemingly unbelievable tales of hobo thievery, workplace time-travel, and terrible Midwestern computer training videos. Meanwhile Daniel describes a scenario of Extreme Deep Tissue Massage, complete with your very own Massage Bro who gets paid in beer. Daniel also talks about all the disgusting things he's ever eaten in taco form, while Libby sits in a...
2010-07-171h 17LAFCASTEpisode 26: Ugh, Really? Volume IIn this Silver Anniversary episode, Libby revisits the past with a Cavalcade of Clips! This admittedly cop-out move assembles some of the best moments of the first 25 LAFCAST episodes for your listening delight. Long-time fans should be able to appreciate a nostalgic walk down Memory Lane, and brand-new listeners will get a crash course in LAFCAST with this clip-show that is sure to make a die-hard fan out of any newbie (hint, hint, TELLYOURFRIENDSTELLYOURFRIENDSTELLYOURFRIENDS) And the episode ends with some Brand New Material (tm) from the recently unearthed Episode 25 Prime. Stay tuned next week for actual fresh material. Retrospective!
