I'm Not Here to Make Friends — Fri, 06 Apr 2012 04:17:07 GMT

Episode 182 : Of Course They Did

I'm Not Here to Make Friends — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 15:05:28 GMT

Back on task and ready to deliver the goods, Allison and Bryan don't slack and mumble around on this episode! They cover the finale of the Amazing Race and two episodes of Top Chef and it only takes them just shy of an hour! If they seem a bit distracted at time, that's because something was making a noise in the office (the sound doesn't pick up on the mic, thankfully) and they try to figure out where it is coming from. That mystery is never solved, but the mystery as to where they've been the last few weeks is solved... or over... whatever makes more sense.

Episode 181 : I'm Just Worried Where You're Going to Go

I'm Not Here to Make Friends — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 08:40:17 GMT

Let's see... in this episode we cover the Amazing Race, Top Chef, Ringer, beer, the etymology of Bryan's last name, bok choy, rum & cola, cows (and the liking of), Christmas vacation drives, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, being an old married couple among several other topics... and not necessarily in that order. Seriously, Allison and Bryan haven't had an episode this long in a long time but they also haven't been this drunk doing a podcast in a long time, or gotten off topic like this in a long time. If you long for the days where the reality show talk was secondary to the cult of personality that is Allison and Bryan, then this episode is for you, if you're really just tuning in to here what they really think of the Amazing Race and Top Chef, well... that's all there, but it does take a while to get back to it once they derail. Hey guys, it is the journey, not the destination!

We're still here and now timelier than ever! We're talking about Sunday's big show in which the clock is turned back to last Thursday before the Eviction and Fast Forward events took place. So much craziness went on between Jeff and Shelly that we all NEED to know and NEED to discuss. Of course doing all this discussing is Allison, Bryan and Big Brother Mike as is usual for this podcast. What is not so usual is what we talk about after recapping the episode. It is a very serious talk about Big Brother fan etiquette. Listen up and spread the word, we all need to stay with-in bounds.

Well, Shelly's going crazy in the house, Porche winds up in an alliance no one wouldn't've predicted 2 weeks ago, Adam make a bad choice and the nominations are shocking. That's just the beginning of week 6 or as Allison Likes to call it "Week 4 Remix" and Bryan likes to call it "Week 4 Part 2: Chain Reaction" Big Brother Mike just calls it "Week 6" because, in this case, he's a normal thinking human. Seriously folks, seriously, the house is getting crazy and the three of them are getting a little nutty in their coverage of it.

They talk about Jeff and Kalia's fight, bizarro Jordan and Rachael the catty smart ass. Big Brother Mike also lets us all in on a fight that we didn't see after the Have/Have Not competition.

Allison does know that she said "Enzo" as opposed to "Lane" for final 2 big brother season 12. Give her a break it was a long weekend and she was still half drunk!

About half way through the fire alarm in our building goes off. The episode pauses for just a little bit before we pick back up. It is a pretty good one and totally awesome fun, Allison even compares two of the greatest men in all of history (you know, Jesus and Charlie Sheen).

Episode 149 : Allison is a Racist (or the Batman)

I'm Not Here to Make Friends — Wed, 09 Mar 2011 06:37:56 GMT

Woah, these two just won't shut up about reality television! Or really anything else that pops into their heads. That's right, they've been drinking again. They let you in on their thoughts on the latest episodes of Top Chef All Stars, the Amazing Race : Unfinished Business and RuPaul's Drag Race. Not only that but find out what else they've been watching this week (it rhymes with Mom Erica's Text Freight Messed Jaunt)! That's not all but they talk a lot about Batman, the Joker, racists and food in general. Wait till you hear the phone calls from Patrick... can I just say: Kitty Wedding! It is all most TOO CUTE!

Episode 148: the Found Episode

I'm Not Here to Make Friends — Wed, 02 Mar 2011 05:12:59 GMT

After last week's humiliating loss of a podcast Bryan and Allison are back pretending both that last week didn't happen, and that it did and they covered it already, in either case they're moving on because reality television sleeps for no one. We go over the deep fried Southern goodness that was Top Chef All-Stars, the very kangaroo-ificness of the Amazing Race and the tasty cake filled yumminess of RuPaul's Drag Race. All that, Allison and Bryan doing their normal goof off routine (stick to the shows you crazy kids!) and just wait until near the end, when all signs are pointing to an other possible podcast loss! Oh man, these two almost lose it! Stay until the end and Allison will let you in on why we haven't been seeing Al Meatball around lately.

That's not all, Al Meatball stops by again to tell us the latest happenings on the Jersey Shore. We also crack each other up a few times, Allison shows off her awesome jingle writing skills and Bryan amuses himself making references that no one will ever get (like last week w/ that "Pizza Sub" song, what the hell was that all about?)

That's not all, Allison once again goes on a Lady GaGa rant, Bryan tells everyone about Mr. Lunch the professional bird chaser and the both talk about the Reality Rally. With all that can you believe there is also some listener phone message as well? Well there is, don't be an idiot! We've been friends for so long I can't fathom why you would doubt me!

Episode 144 : Fish, Chicken & lil Jersey

I'm Not Here to Make Friends — Mon, 24 Jan 2011 03:54:47 GMT

Allison and Bryan come out of drunken hibernation to talk about the last 2 weeks worth of Top Chef All Stars. Allison takes the time to mention a bit of Jersey Shore-ness. Also, why does Bryan remember the Brown's Chicken logo completely different looking? Is he getting his Midwest chicken franchises mixed up? Regardless, when we get to that argument, you can just know that Allison is already right on all counts and that Bryan is fried chicken ignorant.

It certainly is a Christmas miracle, as Allison and Bryan are back with a new episode. We catch up on the last 3 weeks of Top Chef All Stars as well as wrap up our coverage on the Amazing Race. But wait, there's more! As what else we're watching this week is Storage Wars and Allison is loving the new game show Million Dollar Money Drop. That's right, we cover all that and even field a few calls, all in under an hour and a half. If that's not a miracle I'll eat much magic hat.

Episode 141 : Rockin' Our Peers & Puttin' Sucka's in Fear

I'm Not Here to Make Friends — Sat, 04 Dec 2010 08:12:47 GMT

It would be wrong to call it a comeback, as we've been here for a established and significant amount of time, but it is true we took some time off. We get into why we did as well as deliver some Reality Show News before heading into our show coverage. We get all Amazing Raced and then we hit up the end of I Love Money 4 before witnessing the beginning of Top Chef All Stars. We had a ball recording this and we hope you will have a good time listening to it! Also, phone calls! And they. Are. Awesome!

Episode 139 : Random Dancing

I'm Not Here to Make Friends — Sun, 07 Nov 2010 04:19:55 GMT

Allison is playing Katamari while I type up this illustrious episode description for ya'll to read. I'll warn you, Allison and Bryan keep being distracted while recording this episode, it's a bit uneven at best. Is it worth listening to? Hells yeah it is! What's uneven is the dedication to covering the hobaggery on display in "I Love Money," the episode is still effing awesome, because our hosts are as hilarious as ever. No, the important "Amazing Race" coverage isn't half-assed, it is simply AWESOME! So get your helmet strapped on tight, it is time to enjoy some reality show podcast awesomeness!
