The boys are back in town with a slightly new format, but don't you worry- we're still talking about nonsense ranging from plumbing to neutral colors to ghosts. Along the way we discuss dull English schoolchildren that can predict the future as well as forest friends.

This week, the boys are joined by Lilz Martin from Jukebox Zeroes to discuss Billy Corgan, as well as Brownouts, Soft Hash Browns, and the Board of Exxon Trading Card Set. Collect them all!

In the first episode recorded during the current pandemic, we forgot that we covered some of these topics in the last episode. However we remain undaunted and march forth even though Abe's internet was out and his phone's battery died before too long, but look. We're doing our best here. We discuss cloning internet technicians, people who want to be eaten, and finding toilet paper when it is actually needed.

The boys are back in their respective towns as they plunge into season three! There's talk of aggregate device infestations, museums of oddities, beef seeds, vinyl cats jackets, and John's pure and beautiful hatred of The Who.

Join us for another riveting episode as John describes calling strangers collect with a weird voice, Abe does his best Flava Flav imitation, and Christopher discusses what it takes to be a good fry man. Also, Harris Daniels joins us for a talk about the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Finally, we dig into some listener mail!

We're joined by Jon Sasor of Smell and Melt as we discuss Hollywood's Brendan Fraser, Television's Timothy Omundson, duck mammaries, and other really, really unpleasant stuff. Abe's glitching out and we examine questionable CGI involving the Rock and a scorpion. You know, same old, same old.

The Tenderboys are all back in the same room for the first time in a long while with Abe's dad Rich along for the ride. We discuss Dunkin' Donuts and the weird and often disgusting habits people acquire with both its physical restaurants and food & drink. Rich enlightens us on some Canadian street justice against the monolith that is DD's, and Abe seems to have a barely simmering bitterness over the franchise's lack of alternative ...

The tenderboys sit down for a chat about Jim Carrey, but are soon derailed into discussing Patrick Fischler, Tim Allen's troubled past, and career advice Christopher received from Scott Adams of Dilbert fame.

We're back in a monthly format! This month the tenderboys sit down to discuss the new Ghostbusters film and all of the weird things that surrounded it. We're happy to be back!

We're gonna be straight with you. John bailed last minute due to an illness. However, our scheduled guest Lee Martin was almost at Christopher's house. So we did this, a backdoor pilot slash cross-promotional combine the efforts of not only Abram and Christopher of Nickelbackin', but Jukebox Zeroes (featuring Lee), and Old Men Yell At Cloud (Christopher's other podcast)! 
 
We did manage to get off topic a good amount, and we did eve...

The lads are back and flying solo this time as they regale each other with tales from the various Boston and Philadelphia buses. Also discussed: the fact that Christopher continues to get made fun of by middle schoolers despite no longer being one, Abram's bathroom time 40s style radio show, and John's fond rememberance of the Fung Wah bus. Oh and Taco Bell, of course. We get a bit weird with this one. Godspeed.

Hello and happy 2018, everyone! Due to various trips around the northern hemisphere and general holiday madness, we had to skip our planned Christmas episode. But fear not! We've returned with a fresh new episode to ring in the new year! Join John, Abram, and Christopher, as they are joined by longtime bud Patrick Vitalone to discuss British cuisine. Is it awful? Is it delicious? Are we just human garbage disposals that are too int...

Coming at you cold from the tail end of Thanksgiving month, Christopher, John, and Abram all holed up in the same room to have a discussion about the makeup-wearing portrait of 1970s excess, KISS. We talk about our own different, often difficult, relationships with the band's music as well as the band members themselves, and why Blabbermouth is possibly the Breitbart news of Nickelback content. 
 
Our theme song is (currently) "Blush...

After an arduous journey home, Abram is back in Philadelphia and the Tenderboys/Tendermen/TenderBoyz II Men (it's complicated) have finally found time to reconvene from afar. Assisted by Patrick S. Barry (he of our theme song fame), we dive into something we can finally agree to just kinda hate - jam bands. Ugh. We also get into some other things like our cosmic connection with Shane Torres and a fun story about Jimmy Buffet's plan...

Who's that weary traveler knock-knocking on my door? Why, 'tis Abram, in town for a visit! For the first time the three of us sat down in a room to record an episode, and this was a pretty good topic for that purpose. We discussed Walmart in all its glory, talked about derelict strip malls with pizza stands, our friends in the Insane Clown Posse fandom, and much more!

It was inevitable, so we figured we'd just do it. We gave a listen to Nickelback's latest album, "Feed the Machine", and we sat down to discuss whether our feelings about the boys have changed or whether FTM furthers the stereotype. Joining us is noisemaster/trashcaster builder Rick Surette, and we find time to reminisce about unsafe driving conditions in Philadelphia and somehow find a reason to talk about Slint's Spiderland yet a...

Striking while the iron is approaching room temperature, we're back for a special Father's Day recording. Guest host (and dad) Jim McQuaid joins the fray as we discuss the phenomenon of Dad Jokes. Are they funny? Are they lame? Are they akin to fighting or not wearing deoderant? Is Christopher right that Guy Fieri fans should be called Tenderboys? Listen in as we try to crack this particular egg.

Well what would we be if not a mess? No one knew what our topic was, so we kind of tried to capture it all. Cargo shorts, toe shoes, and Eddie Vedder are all on the table in this one. Speaking of tables, for the first time, Christopher and John recorded together along with guest Chris "Squiggy" Sicuranza around a table, and this ep certainly benefits from that fact. It does not benefit, however, from Christopher's dying compressor ...

We're back from a quick lull after Christopher moved to a new house. The downside is that he's not had a chance to work out the kinks in his recording rig just yet, so there's a bit of audio issues on his end. Sorry about that, and hang with us as we discuss the mayor of Flavortown himself, Mr. Guy Fieri. Guy Guy sure gets a lot of hate, but is it warranted? Probably not.
We find time to rope in some other Food Network luminaries an...
