Well folks, after 4 and half years - this may very well be the last episode of this show.
While we love doing it for you, the fact that both hosts are tied up with a multitude of other projects has made this one difficult to keep up with. Donnie and Tid are planning to regroup and potentially revamp this thing, but for now, we want to say thanks for sticking with us all these years. But before we go, here's one more episode with...

The Godfathers Of Podcasting are back with perhaps our most unique episode ever... because this week's guest ... can't talk. He was born with Cerebral Palsy, and has always been non verbal - but that didn't stop him from becoming one of the most in-demand comedians on the scene today (thanks in large part to his ability to quickly feed Siri with whatever it is he wants to say).

Kyle is a Canadian who's been making a splash on the scene and is currently on a long European tour. He's got a very dark brand of humor, and doesn't shy away from sharing difficult even shares a true story about the time his mother wanted to sleep with him!

This is a very, very unique episode! Chris Tidwell was unavailable this week as he had a separate gig to tend to, so Donnie decided to try and find a guest co-host. The person he found has been a guest on this show 3 times before, is a reality tv star and fitness icon - Christmas Abbott!

Donnie may have peed his pants from laughing so hard during this week's episode. He and Tid are joined by their pal - award winning filmmaker and comedian Joey Medina. Joey was on the road, getting ready for a show in San Diego, and unfortunately, his wifi was pretty awful. As a result, we got a little out of him, but his signal kept dropping out at the weirdest moments, and it entertained us to no end.

This week's guest is a very different one for The Godfathers Of Podcasting! He's not a pro athlete or comedian or musician or even an actor. He's a doctor. But not just ANY doctor ... he's a veterinarian that has his own clinic in Toronto, and travels the world saving animals everywhere. His name is Dr Cliff Redford, and he's made appearances on many news programs, talk shows and now he's here with The Godfathers.
