Episode 71: “Halloween” with Kevin Sparrowe!

This week’s word is “Halloween”, sent to us by Ian N! This episode wraps up The One Word, Go! Show’s 2nd Annual Trick-or-Treatastic Halloweenathon! All throughout the month of October, we’ve been posting “Specials” alongside our regular episodes. Don’t forget to check them out!

On this spooky episode, we’re joined by our friend Kevin, and play a plethora of voicemails including Halloween-themed riddles from Ian, an apology and explanation from Jerry’s assailant, and a vulgar long-time friend of the show who we haven’t heard from in awhile.

Next week’s word is undecided, so get your miscellaneous stories into us by leaving a comment below, sending us an email to podcast@onewordgoshow.com, or calling into the voicemail line at 206-337-5302!

The song at the end of today’s show is the Monster Mash by Bobby “Boris” Pickett!

Special: “Tommy Has ADHD”

The One Word, Go! Show’s 2nd Annual Trick-or-Treatastic Halloweenathon is nearly over. This is the final “Special” before Episode 71: “Halloween”.

It’s important that we round off this year’s Halloweenathon with a terrifying story read by Dan. We’re aware he’s not the best at reading stories, and we make fun of him for it constantly. But the Halloweenathon has to end the way it began in 2013: Mat and Dan goofing off while reading spooky stories… It’s tradition! Besides, if we keep this up annually, Dan will be a professional story-teller by 2019!

Special: “Halloween Rap”

The One Word, Go! Show’s 2nd Annual Trick-or-Treatastic Halloweenathon continues with an out-take of sorts. Before recording a proper “Halloweenathon Special”, Mat and Dan had this “conversation”. Pure idiotic bliss. (We had indeed been drinking.) Halloween themed extras will be posted all October long!

Happy Birthday to our Community Mom!

♫ Happy birthday, dear Sheila Shelley! ♫

It’s Mat’s Mom’s birthday! You may not know this, but Shelley is an integral part of The One Word, Go! Show. She has helped Dan, Fish, Andrew, and especially Mat out of so many jams in the past that, without her, we probably wouldn’t be here today.

The love, support, and natural “motherliness” Shelley provides to us has awarded her the title of “Community Mom”. We’ve never met another human being like her, who would willingly put aside everything going on in her own busy life, in order to drive you to the doctor after being shot in the eye with a BB gun, or bring your Crazy Carpets to school because you forgot them at home and all the other kids were having way more fun than you, or allow you to live at her place and eat her food when you have nowhere else to go, or search the entire city for your stolen 1996 Dodge Neon for hours and hours in the middle of the night (including the darkest corners of the shadiest neighborhoods). Selfless acts such as these (and many, many, many more) inspire us to be less selfish. They remind us to think twice before turning our heads away from the flipped over semi on the highway. We know to help the bleeding stranger who got too close to a swinging golf club, instead of deciding “not my problem!”. Mat’s Mom, Shelley, is a genuine super hero.

To celebrate, we’ve gathered nearly every single appearance Shelley has made on the show below. Enjoy!


hobbies

Episode 31: “Hobby”

Today on the show, Dan builds a robot in his closet, Breanne puts a spin on the classic swear jar, Mat realises he doesn’t have any hobbies, and Mat’s Mom steals a car while filling in for Fish, who is away in Mexico, getting it on with several different men.

Check out the original post here.


Clip from Episode 37: “Truth”

In order to celebrate Breanne’s final episode of the show, we all decided to play a game of Truth or Dare. In this clip, Mat dares Breanne to call Shelley and wish her a happy birthday (and it wasn’t her birthday.) Hilarity ensues.


time

Episode 38: “Time”

Today’s word is “time” submitted by Courtney! This week, Mat and Fish live their lives according to their own time, Dan gets shot in the eye and throws up on puppies, and Mat’s Mom cold-heartedly denies her children ice cream. Don’t forget to vote for next week’s word!

Check out the original post here.


Extra: “Punch A Dog In The Face”

Once a week during the month of March, we’ll be sharing some bonus clips with you. These are clips from either our sound-checks, or just bits that never made it into the main episodes for whatever reason. Today’s extra is from Episode 38‘s soundcheck, and is called “Punch a Dog in the Face”!

Check out the original post here.


fire

Episode 49: “Fire”

Today’s word is “fire” submitted by Ian N! On this episode, Mat, Dan, and Shelley discuss setting bathtubs ablaze, leaving poop on Granny’s pillow, being in a coma for four months, firing worthless employees, and the importance of fire safety. Note: Dan does not actually abuse animals. He was 7 years old and dumb. The cat ended up being A-OK. Don’t hurt animals.

Check out the original post here.


Episode 63: “Cellphones”

This week’s word is “cellphones”, sent to us by Sincere! Today on the show, Mat learns his Grandmother’s breast size, Fish takes her cell phone for a roof-of-the-car ride, Andrew talks about the time his sister let her phone hibernate, Mat’s Mom sends her not-flip-phone swimming in a pool of Pepsi, and Granny has no idea what the heck is going on.

Check out the original post here.


Extra: “Super Smash Mother”

Mat’s Mom attempts to name all of the currently announced characters from Super Smash Bros. 4. I’ve seen a lot of pictures floating around online of the same nature, and decided to do a version of my own. Completely unscripted, I think she did OK… For a non-gaming mother.

This is our #1 most viewed of anything we’ve ever put out. Without a doubt. And it wouldn’t have been possible without Shelley.


Please leave a comment below and wish Shelley a Happy Birthday!

Video: “You’re Going to Hell, Jerry!”

On Episode 70 of The One Word, Go! Show Dan told an interesting story:

He was working peacefully, minding his own business, when a man abruptly entered the store and began demanding to have him fax napkins. Unable to help the man because first, Dan doesn’t have a fax machine, and second, you can’t fax napkins, the man got upset, threw his wallet and ID on the counter, and demanded to see “Jerry” because he “took his kids”. Dan doesn’t know anyone named Jerry, and explained just that. The man, still crazy, fled the store.

He spent the next ten minutes in the parking lot, screaming at passing vehicles, before finally entering the store again. That’s when he peered into Dan’s eyes, and announced, “YOU’RE JERRY!” (What a twist!) (Dan isn’t actually Jerry.)

The insane man then approached Dan and slammed the computer monitor down on the counter. Before Dan could even react, the man lunged at him, sucker punching him right in the kisser. Dan, adrenaline pumping, grabbed the flailing lunatic and pinned him to the ground. That’s where this video picks up.

To those worried, Dan is OK. He went to the doctor and came out with nothing but a black eye and a fat lip. To find out more, listen to Episode 70: “Treasure”.

 

Episode 70: “Treasure”

This week’s word is “treasure”, sent to us by Matt! Today, Mat weighs the pros and cons of two disgusting options involving teeth and body fluid, Andrew collects coins like a nerd, Fish cuddles with Jenkins, and Dan gets physically assaulted… Or was that Jerry?

Stay tuned after the outro music for some out-takes!
