Podcast of The Week #5-The 2 Sense Show!


“This week on the show….We got outrageous news, news where stupid people die stupidly, dead baby jokes and stuff that will probably piss 90% of America off!…This is the 2 Sense Show!”


(Theme song)

WE ARE THE ONES YOU REJECTED!
WE ARE THE ONES THAT YOU HATE!
SO SHUT THE F&#$ UP AND LISTEN!
CAUSE WE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY!

IT’S OUR 2 SENSE!
2 SENSE!
2 SENNNNNNNSSSSSSE!!!

This is one of the oldest of the podcasts I listen to.  It’s also one of the most offensive, outrageous and damm funniest ones out there! 

The 2 Sense Show was created in 2003 by Matthew Wayne Davis, a comedian and musician who performs within the sci-fi/furry community by playing at conventions.  (Recently, it looks as if he’s moving on up in the stand-up community)  Matt is know throughout the furry community as 2 The Ranting Gryphon due to his rant style stand up and audio rants which he turned into the 2 Sense Show.  On the show, 2 along with a co-host (He has several over the years.  The latest being Jason Bernard Smith aka Jibba Foxcoon) cover weird news and offer commentary on those as well as current news events (Usually when it pisses them off).  We then move on to The Gore News, where they cover news of people getting themselves or others killed in stupid ways.  There’s usually a break after where we get audio from contributors, then move on to Dear 2 Letters where fans write in with questions to 2 on almost any subjects.

(Before we go any further, I just want to let readers know a couple of caveats.  Both 2 and Jibba are openly gay (The furry community attracts a lot of gays and lesbians) and being big stars in the furry community they often drop news of the latest furry con they’ll be playing at.  A lot of the contributors, especially currently are also part of the community.  Otherwise the show is pretty accessible as far as listening to 2 and Jibba go.  I am NOT gay or a furry, but I still think they’re both funny bastards!)

The appeal of the show is similar to listening to the best stuff from Howard Stern or Opie and Anthony, especially when the hosts go off on a news story or when during the Gore News, Jibba completely loses it and breaks down laughing!  (Yeah, I told you these guys were twisted!)

The show has undergone a huge makeover since 2010.  It now does a live video cast each week.  After, the show is archived as a video and audio file for download.  The audio version of the show cuts out a lot from the break due to the content being video.  Just to let you know

This show is not for everyone!  If you can stand the kind of offensive commentary Stern and O & A dish out, give it a shot.  I have a great laugh with each show.  So head on over to http://www.ranting-gryphon.com/ where you can not only get the show, but download past rants, songs created by 2 and episodes of the show from the past six years.
