Friends Reunion

The Fanbyte Thinktank reconvenes to address another slate of issues facing today's Sleepy Americans, including Upload's new name, if milk is juice, what to do when potatoes green inside, the truth about lizards in your garden, if potting soil can "affect dogs," whether the Queen is dead and if she ever killed anyone with her own hands while alive, whether John is more successful than Lewis Hamilton, that U2 album they put on everybody's phones, toothpaste smuggling, and somehow, even more.

For the first time in forever, the entire Fanbyte Thinktank is reunited to tackle the pressing issues facing today's Sleepy Americans, including why there are so few guys in a band called Blink-182, what we would do on our first day as President of the United States, putting Jimmy Carter in Fortnite, how even our coworkers don't know what this show is, telling the hair person all your secrets, installing a McDonalds in the White House, the final 912 choco tacos, and somehow, even more.

With John lost somewhere in the morgue of an enormous cruise ship, LB and Niki decide to discover more about themselves by taking a quiz designed to identify Americans who are unfit to serve in the trenches of World War 1. Also, unfortunately, we all learn about "vabbing" together, as a family. More from Fanbyte: Fanbyte Podcast Network (We do other podcasts too!)

While John's off enjoying a luxurious cruise aboard the S.S. Morgue, LB and Niki celebrate Barley's birthday by shopping for a lightly used train. They also discuss regional driving etiquette, the guy that gets in your body to do stuff sometimes, LB's favorite Japanese train youtuber, the erotic thrill of eating bread in the morning, losing control over your mouth/mind, being to tired to act on any of your great ideas, publicly accessible fire alarms, and impressively, even more.

With LB aboard the International Space Vacation Station, Niki and John are left behind to plan John's rapidly approaching cruise to Alaska. But first, Niki decides to outline their plan for a new airline, Pan-Am 2, before moving on to assorted boat facts and, finally, things about Alaska. There's also a lot of discussion about that guy that jumped out of space for Red Bull, for some reason, which right now sounds about as dangerous as going on a cruise.

The Fanbyte Thinktank reconvenes to address a new slate of problems facing today's Americans, but first we check in with our hosts to see how their medication regimens have changed recently. LB's blood pressure medication gave them chronic dream fighting, and Niki's new Shakira drugs have them operating on a new plane of existence where 14-day weeks suddenly make perfect sense. (John's meds are the same, but he could still benefit from a butt removal.) Eventually the panel tackles the problem at hand -- BMW's new subscription seat warmers -- after a brief trip to the Museum of Modern Art.

John is aboard the International Space Station to atone for his sins this week, but LB and Niki are still here to help celebrate a certain special someone's birthday. As part of the festivities, our intrepid duo discuss getting hot and falling over, the health benefits of getting a blood infusion from Carlos Santana, going to a Fourth of July parade in the year 2022, long division, whether Radio Disney still exists, life before Wikipedia, Girls Generation, SSRIs, and irrevocably, a lot more.

Smooth Week 2022 is finally here, and while local smoothness expert LB Hunktears couldn't make the recording session due to a desperate need for their services aboard the International Space Station, Niki and John are here to hold it down by implementing a new, never-before-seen hybrid podcast format (with the help of our long-cancelled basketball show, Corner Three).

Much like Yom Kippur, this week's episode is a time for penance and atonement, in which the Fanbyte Thinktank looks back at the rolling calendar year and apologizes for all of the patently false things they rightfully said during the show, including that time Niki said that everything the blood touches is drugs, or that time Niki said that anytime you're inside of something, you're fucking it. Most of these are Niki actually, but LB also said that a baby will die if you put it on a bed that's too big, so there's plenty of blame to go around.

It's Gimmick Month™ at Friends Reunion, and to kick things off the Fanbyte Thinktank tackles one of history's oldest and most controversial subjects: Milk.
