On 15 November 1992, the New York Times printed a ‘Lexicon of Grunge’, a list of slang terms from the Seattle music scene. ‘Harsh realm’ = bummer. ‘Wack slacks’ = old ripped jeans. ‘Swingin’ on the flippity-flop’ = hanging out.

Not familiar with any of these? It’s OK, that’s not because you’re a cob nobbler (= loser). They were all made up. By Megan Jasper. Now the CEO of Sub Pop records, she recounts her linguistic prank.

In which the American railroad provides a semi-legal travel network for millions of migrant laborers, and John explains how a sufficiently blond mustache on a young hobo can ward off evil. Certificate #14946.

Jussie Smollett told the world he was the victim of a hate crime. What happened next, according to the right, is a bunch of insectional libtards believed his obviously false story because of the oppression olympics, or something. For example, check out this SJW's reaction to the news. In the midst of my research on this story, Smollett has been officially charged with making a false statement. It was initially reported that a grand jury indicted him so that's what I said in the episode, but that was corrected to say he was charged by the prosecutor. There is a lot to talk about regarding the reaction to this. I want to argue that the message to believe victims is perfectly compatible with believing someone like Dr. Ford and not believing Smollett.

On Thursday, February 5, 1987, two men were arrested on suspicion of kidnapping six children and transporting them to Tallahassee, Florida. While the children were reportedly filthy and hungry, initial reports of abuse didn’t hold up. The mothers confirmed they knew the men, and the charges were eventually dropped. But this isn’t how the story ends -- instead, this is where the story of the Finders cult begins.

Sarah tells Mike how a poor Texas girl made herself into an icon and America made her into a punchline. Digressions include massage technique, “Death Becomes Her” and (obviously) “The Godfather.” Mike sounds even sicker than he did last week.

It's tempting to sweep into these show notes like a certain loudmouthed Betazoid and start spreading pate related puns, but it just doesn't feel right. This is a beautiful hour of television and y'all all deserve to go watch it unspoilered. Really the very best that Star Trek has to offer.

In this episode, the Goods from the Woods Boys and special guest host comedian Sam Harter are talking Tinsel Town! That's right, this episode is all about AWARD SHOWS but, since it's the Goods from the Woods, we're focusing specifically on those incredibly weird moments that tend to happen when a bunch of rich egomaniacs with drug and mental problems and no sense of humor about themselves get stuffed into a room. Sometimes drunk celebrities rush the stage. Sometimes random people streak across it. Sometimes John Travolta takes too much Ambien and calls you "Adele Nazeem". SOMETIMES A MAN WITH "SOY BOMB" WRITTEN ON HIS CHEST STARTS POSE-DANCING NEXT TO BOB DYLAN! Admit it, the only reason to watch these things is for the chaos and that's what this ep is all about. Hooray for Hollywood! Give us a listen today.  Follow the show @TheGoodsPod  Rivers is @RiversLangley  Dr. Pat is @PM_Reilly  Sam is @SlamHarter  Mr. Goodnight is @SepulvedaCowboy  Pick up a Goods from the Woods t-shirt at: http://prowrestlingtees.com/TheGoodsPod This episode is brought to you by 'Mastering the Art of Wench Cooking', the new book from the Mystic Order of East Alabama Fiction Writers, available now on Amazon.
