Shit The Road: The South



The Boston Shit Show continues the long, arduous trip across the United States. From Boston to Philadelphia, and now down into the South. The dirty, dirty, scary South. Passing through the virtual nothingness of West Virginia, the Bourbon Trail of Kentucky, the musical roots of Tennessee, the even more nothingness of Arkansas, and the unique history and way of life in Texas, the trip has provided more than enough entertainment for the Boston Shit Show and anyone who watches this finest episode. This is right up there with Foder's Travel Guides--if you're ever planning a trip across the country, trust in your old friend the Boston Shit Show to help you learn the do's, but mostly the don'ts, of the trip. The interesting thing is, Josh is now officially NSFW in about 10 States. But they each earned it.
Goddamn Philly Cheesesteaks though, right? WTF?
We hope you enjoy this unique look at some of the heartiest parts of the country you live in but have never seen for yourself.

Shit The Road: Philadelphia




THE SHOW (S)HITS THE ROAD!!
Episode one, if you haven't caught on yet, is the trip through Philadelphia.
Josh explores and tries to appreciate the rich local history, including Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, the first US Mint (which doesn't allow cameras) and The Cheesesteak.

He doesn't get very far, and walks away with a complete misunderstanding of pretty much all of it. 

He does end up getting to see the Mint, which is not operational that day.
"I went to the Mint and it was shut down. It wasn't making any cents."


When you're done vomiting the shitty pun, watch Shit The Road Episode 1: Philadelphia!

NO YES ANDS with Al Park

Josh with Al Park

This episode of The Boston Shit Show features Al Park, named "Boston's Best Comic" by The Improper Bostonian.

Al tells Josh about winning the Boston Comedy Festival, the Cleveland Comedy Festival, being a finalist in the Seattle International Comedy Competition, starting comedy later in life, after years of counting trees in Oregon and working in kitchens.
Josh and Al compare the work that goes into stand up vs. that of improv, and Josh proclaims that he truly hates improv after having tried it. 
They talk about taking classes in standup and what kind of jokes fly when you're first starting out; they compare comedy to performing music, specifically the cello.

They compare famous dead comics, and Josh tells a story about why his parents hate George Carlin. Al talks about burning the material after doing a big special, and they talk about Chris Rock hosting the Oscars.

Al has done some weird shows, including a bonfire on a karaoke machine with a 3-foot cord and everyone with their backs to him.

Fuck You, Buzzy Cohen!



This episode of The Boston Shit Show is JEOPARDY!-themed, and an anti-tribute to the cocky piece of smart shit that is now-Jeopardy Champion, Buzzy Cohen.

The show starts out with Josh inexplicably dressed like an Armenian pimp. Then he gives a half-assed explanation; and he still has the gout. 
PA Sue gets into the news, which is that Alex Trebek is getting pissed off at a reigning champion, Buzzy Cohen.
Josh and PAS discuss this prick, Josh trying out for JEOPARDY! (HINT: He definitely didn't make it on the show, and he's unsubtle about it) and how much of a HERO Trebek is.
They get into Buzzy Cohen's "training" to be a Jeopardy Champion, and how he used his runaway victories in Final Jeopardy to quote Darrell Hammond's Sean Connery impersonation to insult his host. 
Conversation about Ken Jennings and Watson sparks a contest question for you kind fans... 
Email bostonshitshow@gmail.com with some semblance of a response (IN THE FORM OF A QUESTION, YOU FUCKS) for
a shot at winning 
a Limited Edition Boston Shit Show T-Shirt!!!
Josh comes up with the greatest revenge comic book movie trilogy EVER.
FUCK YOU, BUZZY COHEN.

Finally, PA Sue goes into a racist rant about Asian parking spaces, and then drops a bad news bomb on Josh at the last moment.

Blended Beef & Cumpuns




For the 5 year anniversary of Josh's first time doing stand up, Matt Miller comes into the Front Room and, off the bat, points out that Josh hasn't done stand up in a minute.

Josh brings up that he felt a "beef" with another comic at one of his last shows, and that part of the reason he's shied away from the stage is to avoid the drama bullshit. He then reveals the phenomenon of people always hating him when they first meet him.

Josh and Matt reminisce about Howard Stern on E! and how it kind of framed the BSS.
Josh talks about how Matt was one of the first friends he made while entering the stand up comedy community in Boston.
They discuss the failed Fran's Place Saturday show that Matt frequented and performed Josh's favorite bit of his, the "cum puns".
Matt talks about his Youtube successes, and they watch one of his most popular videos, "Bobby Banks's Butt Camp".

Matt calls up the Citizen Kane of infomercials, The Magic Bullet.  Josh, Matt and PA Sue point out the absurdity of the cooking methods in the Magic Bullet kitchen.

A little bit about the gout, because Josh got the gout.  Matt shares his secret to weight loss: DANCING WHILE DRUNK (we looked into it, it works). Credits roll while PA Sue does a news story about Google Flypaper for the Google car.

Indiana GMOs and the RECZ


This episode of the Boston Shit Show is a trilogy, Indiana GMOs and the RECZ
(Remade Earffel Centipede Zeppelin).
WATCH ALL THREE PARTS

Part 1: If It Ain't Broke...
In Part 1 of the trilogy, Josh gets some bad news about something iconic being removed from Walt Disney World. He then shares his dislike of anyone who refers to Disney MGM Studios as "Disney Hollywood Studios". 
A brief conversation about the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular, Sue drops the bomb that Chris Pratt is in a remake of Raiders of the Lost Ark; Josh completely loses his shit about remaking movies.


Part 1: If It Ain't Broke



Part 2: Zep and NOT Caterpillar
A teacher is in hot water after showing Human Centipede 2 to their class, but Josh contends that every teacher should get a few free passes on movie day because the students are assholes, and laments not having worked harder at being the class clown in high school. Josh postulates on which position in the Centipede would be worst.
Josh and PA Sue begin a track of misspeaking, saying "Human Caterpillar 2" rather than "Human Centipede 2" ("THC2").
Josh gets overly frustrated that people abbreviate everything they say when oftentimes it would save more time to just say the actual words. WTF.
PA Sue brings Josh up to speed on the lawsuit against Led Zeppelin over stealing the riff for Stairway To Heaven.  Josh makes an incredible analogy between music and the Rubix Cube.


Part 2: Zep and NOT Caterpillar


Part 3: The GMO Part
Josh announces PA Sue W. Bush's planned candidacy for an undisclosed public office.
There's a story about iodine being distributed in Belgium because they run on "nucular" power and their reactors are at critical levels. This somehow progresses into a discussion about how all food nowadays needs to be something-free. Fuckin' vegan hippies. PA Sue explains the GMO situation (as best she can) and Josh plays devil's advocate on the side on Monsanto. He explains that their creation of GMOs is the epitome of capitalism.
PA questions Josh's survival skills, then explains that stupid/uneducated people don't know to watch out for GMO products, and Josh fights back with a Darwinistic point of view.
PA Sue then brings up an Indian "Fuck Temple" she visited, allowing Josh to bring it full circle.

Marky Markathon, NASAholes, Fuckbots with John "The Surgeon" Loftus


This episode of the Boston Shit Show features guest and good friend of the show John "The Surgeon" Loftus of the Boston Institute for Nonprofit Journalism.

The Shit Show jumps right into some news stories.

People are upset that Mark Wahlberg was filming his next movie at the finish line of the Boston Marathon, and want him to donate his salary for the movie to the victims of the bombing. Josh is upset that these people exist.

Something is seen in some NASA footage, and Josh launches into a tirade about people that doubt things published by the Administration.

Finally, the Japanese invention of virtual reality sex robots is pretty much a gift from GOD.

What do you think about Drones that shoot out nets to stop other drones that may be used during the Boston Marathon? See what Josh thinks about these drones and more about the newest baby giraffe born at the Sacramento Zoo; fucking Rhinos and the Dodo.

Tommy Williams joins to talk about beginning his stand up career, with some thanks to DJB and Improv Boston's 100 First Jokes V.

HAPPY NEW YEAR WITH TERENCE PENNINGTON!






HAPPY(?) NEW YEAR!


Fortunately and appropriately enough, to kick off Season 2 of the Boston Shit Show, the amazing, unique and beautiful Terence Pennington, Jr. comes into the Front Room Studio to discuss new year resolutions, among other things, for the inaugural 2016 episode.

To kick the whole Shit Show off, Josh and Terence talk about performing at "100 First Jokes V" at Improv Boston (produced and hosted by the heroic Dana Jay Bein) on New Year's Day and the writing collaboration of Terence's first joke of the new year. We hear some background about Terence witnessing the police shooting of an innocent dog in the projects and how there actuallyare very lovely public parks in every area. Some horrible Google-ing enSues--for like, the whole show.




Terence does his impersonation of Josh's Andrew Dice Clay-inspired character, Andrew Dice Cambridge, which has finally been published in the Boston Institute for Non-Profit Journalism technology (, etc.) publication The Boston Bubble.




The New Year resolutions finally come out. Terence wants to step it up with the ladies and get one for more than a few months, now that he knows what he wants; Josh claims he's going to get back into stand up in addition to doing this ridiculous podcast;

The Italian plumbers under the Front Room warp their way into the podcast zone.

Terence prompts Josh to make a resolution to stop dating "psychopaths", and they both want to start saving some money. 

Josh explains why he doesn't donate his old clothes to Goodwill; the fellas reminisce about the good old days of the King's Open Mic, and lament the musicians that performed there.


The goddamn infamous Josh v. Chinese woman story comes up, BECAUSE THEY'RE OPEN! FACT!
Josh proposes a new holiday schedule for America, then brings up that "Black Lives Matter" had to become a phrase to get attention yet people are still obsessed with reality TV stars and what the fucking Kardashians are doing ALL DAY, EVERY DAY.
