  • Ol’ Laser-Tooth

    The Buddies plumb the depths of their day and find humor in the mundane, from laser gum cleanings to  shoveling snow off a deck over and over and over again. All while drinking “Mediocre ‘Fuck-You Winter!’ Mojitos.” You’ll even learn the super-secret recipe for simple syrup! Shhhhhhhhhhhh. Things turn intriguing when Mike relays tales of…

  • Pissed Connections

    The Buddies are at it again, and this time no corner of Craigslist is safe! On a suggestion from S’mike’s wife, BIS tackles the weirdest, creepiest and most desperate Missed Connections they can be handed (because they’re too lazy to find some themselves), and then mock the hell out of ’em. Didn’t see that coming,…

  • Demonic Vegans Shooting Acid

    The Buddies sit down with artisinal Moscow Mules for a rousing play-through of their new favorite game, Superfight! A not-invisible Dr. Horrible squares off against his own insidious creation, and a unicorn with catlike reflexes gets a fancy upgrade. Mike then relays his experiences drinking in downtown Austin, TX, and the local slogan “Keep Austin…

  • BIS Episode XXIX: The Spoiler Awakens

    And thus, the spoilers begin. The curmudgeonly Buddies spare Star Wars Episode VII no quarter, and many a spoiler and plot weakness are discussed. And mocked. There’s some praise, too. Did we mention spoilers? Also, a REALLY good drink is created! More stories from the TV pilot filming! And seriously, S-P-O-I-L-E-R-S. You’ve been warrrrrrned.  …

  • The One We Did For Television

    Join Buddies In Space as they film their first (and probably only) television episode for RCTV!!!

This podcast was edited independently of the television show it…

  • The Hands of a Surgeon

    Well wash your hands three times and grab a scalpel, healthy listener, ‘cuz Buddies In Space are gonna cut you open and stuff you full of…humor… OK, that started better than it ended up, huh? Mike shares why waiting on doctors sucks and how he coped with it (hint: it involves snark). Videogames get a…

  • Vomiting Up Memories

    Travel back in time, dear listener, as Buddies In Space hypnotize you and unpack your childhood recollections. Well, really they just unpack more of their own childhood recollections. And instead of hypnosis, they use alcohol. So that entire lead-in sentence was a lie. The horrors of S’mike’s childhood are brought to light, from the “lunches”…

  • Predator-Style Huntin’ Camo with Matching Manly Slippers

    The Buddies old-man-it-up this episode, sipping on the premier seafood-based drink of Toronto. Also, a very sad review of Avengers is conducted, where James Spader’s Ultron is described as “douche bag Shakespeare.” Spoiler: they didn’t love it. What the heck happened to that movie?! Other discussion highlights include the unfairness of playing first person shooters…

  • Myths and the Dark Side (of Geekdom)

    “And lo, did Buddies In Space return to form.” No guests. No gimmicks. Just sheer, unmitigated, mildly antagonistic geek humor, baby! The Star Wars ticket pre-sale madness gets it’s due while hipster-Jamaican drinks are thrown together and consumed. Computer names and builds are discussed and then, inevitably, argued over. Warning: there’s some nerd smack-talk up…

  • With Special Guest Ben Coury, Political Pundit and Entrepreneur!

    For this episode, the Buddies are joined by national Man of Mystery and Mike’s oldest friend from high school, Mr. Benjagamin Coury (his pronunciation). He’s many things: Scholar. Political Theorist. Web Designer. Former Store Manager of a Certain Evil Cell Phone Retailer. And he’s blowing the whistle on EVERYTHING. OK, some of that isn’t true.…
