Boi Crazy: Presidential Assassins 14.04.2021

That's right! It's another brand-spanking new episode of Boi Crazy, and inarguably our most batshit episode to date!  This time, we rank the hunkiness of US presidential assassins—and yes, we included an attempted assassin as well. Duh. Enjoy this free mini episode and then join our Patreon, where you can listen to the full episode—or watch the uncut video of this episode recording, complete with...

How You Dumping?! (with Ian Karmel) 06.04.2021

Ben, Andrew, and Adam are joined by their buddy Ian Karmel to see if their bowel movements can be improved by the use of a simple yet sophisticated, molded piece of highly functional plastic—the Squatty Potty. Grawlix Note: We're not being paid by Squatty Potty for this endorsement. Yet.  Also featuring standup clips from Ian—hot damn, that's a lot of Karmel!  LINKS: Ian on Twitter and Instagram I...

All Apologies 23.03.2021

We've all got moments we're not proud of. Times we were dicks. Times we were completely wrong in our thinking. Times when we were...too drunk. And sometimes it helps to talk about those moments, and apologize for them. Because, undoubtedly, if more people apologized when they were in the wrong, the world would be a much, much better place. Allow us to get the ball rolling. Featuring standup clips...

For Whom the Bell Tocks (with Steph Tolev) 09.03.2021

Remember our first episode? The one where we swore off social media for a week? Well forget all that. For this episode, we throw our respective hats into the TikTok ring to see if as comics we should be embracing new-fangled forms of expression and self-promotion. And we invite none-other-than hilarious comic and TikTokker extraordinaire Steph Tolev to show us the ropes and judge our efforts!  LIN...

Boi Crazy: Saved By The Bell 02.03.2021

Platonic Love Letters (Live with Shane Torres and Eliza Skinner) 23.02.2021

Hey, It'd Be Cool If You Didn't Talk So Much! 09.02.2021

In what is surely a podcast first, three standup comics vow to be better listeners rather than just wait for their turn to talk. Andrew and Adam put into practice helpful listening tips while Ben takes a vow of silence for an entire week, resulting in a palpable dip in global jiu-jitsu chatter.  Featuring standup comedy clips from Troy Walker and Emily Maya Mills! Here's a link to that NYT Smarter...

Operation Stop Being Such An Uggo (with Kyle Kinane) 26.01.2021

Look there's just no beating around the bush: The Grawlix are a bunch of fucking uggos. We're just butt. And the pandemic ain't helping. So we decided to take a week to practice some proper facial skin care—and we reached out to Arbonne Regional Sales Champion Kyle Kinane for help. Featuring standup clips from Kyle and Charla Lauriston! Wanna see the before-and-after photos from this episode? We'v...

The Grawlix Saves the Zodiac 12.01.2021

Starting the year off right, Adam, Andrew, and Ben decide to chuck their pesky free will out the window and let the universe tell them how to live—specifically by putting into action whatever vagaries their daily horoscopes have in store for them. Spoiler alert: We all buy Bitcoin! Featuring standup comedy from Kevin O'Brien and our own Ben Roy! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm...

Boi Crazy: Top Gun 06.01.2021

In a move that is just so Andrew, he picks the movie, "Top Gun," for his first time at the Boi Crazy wheel. "But Andrew," we said. "They are men, not teen hunks." "Yes," Andrew responded. "But they helped turn us from Bois into men." And there's just no arguing with that. The rest is Boi Crazy history.  Enjoy this free taste, and listen to the the entire episode (with video!) by joining our Patreo...

Secret Satan 22.12.2020

Typically the Grawlix GloboCorp company holiday party is a fête for the ages! We break into one of those storage PODS and smoke cigarettes until we all get headaches, just like in the bible! This year pandemic restrictions have us homebound, so we celebrate the only way we can—with secret present drops for one another in the dead of night, and barely restrained passive aggression. And we invite pr...

Got 'Gotchi? (with Maria Thayer) 08.12.2020

Remember Tamagotchis? Those egg-like keychains that were actually little digital lives that you had to take care of? The ones that were so popular in the 1990s? The ones that shit and eat and need medicine and stimulation and discipline? The boys sure do! The boys and special guest Maria Thayer (Those Who Can't, Strangers With Candy, Forgetting Sarah Marshall), just spent a week raising them! What...

Challenge Accepted 24.11.2020

It's Thanksgiving time at The Grawlix Saves the World—and we suppose everywhere else too—and what we're most grateful for is our fans. Specifically those who support us on Patreon. The rest of you are great, but let's get real: money talks. So, to show our gratitude, Ben, Adam, and Andrew each take on separate challenges suggested by our Patreon subscribers!   Featuring standup comedy clips from K...

Bird is the Word 10.11.2020

Huzzah! The episode America has been clamoring for! After exploring Ben's love of jiu-jitsu and Andrew's love of Dungeons & Dragons, Adam finally gets his day in the sun, as he shares his passion for bird-watching with his cohorts. Is the world better off for it? Um, doy-hickey. Of course it is. And as if that's not enough, this episode features the return of the Whapping Spatula! And standup come...

The Grawlix Get Political 27.10.2020

With one week—ONE WEEK—left until the presidential election, Andrew, Adam and Ben hash it out and then decide to do something politically proactive every day for a week. Will the Grawlix actually maybe save the world this week?! Only November 3rd will tell! Or a protracted legal dispute thereafter. USA! USA!  Featuring standup clips from Nolawee Menghist and our own sweet baby Ben Roy! Learn more...

Cannonball Scoot 13.10.2020

It was Gandhi who said, "If you hate something, try it, and maybe your attitude will change." And even though we just invented that quote for Gandhi, it feels right in his wheelhouse. All this to say, Andrew, Adam and Ben put aside their hatred of e-scooters and try living as the Vape-Bro half lives, in a free-for-all scooter race through the streets of downtown Denver. It's all very, very stupid....

Bee the Change (LIVE) 29.09.2020

Behold, our first live, in-person podcast ever! Shout out to the good folks at Ratio Beerworks for helping us put this on safely and for just generally ruling. And to Erin Rollman and Brian Colonna from Buntport Theater for moderating the challenge like champs. See who among Adam, Andrew and Ben is the best—okay, least worst—speller of the Grawlix! Note: This is an edited version of the live show....

You Can Eat My Whole30 15.09.2020

Spurned on by Ben, who only eats food out of some proletariat obligation to be a more efficient laborer, Andrew and Adam attempt to cut sugar, starch, grains, joy, pleasure, and the will to live out of their diets for an entire week—a real Whole7 challenge! The results: the most contentious, heated episode yet! You don't fuck with another man's diet. Featuring standup comedy clips from Sarah Benso...

Meditation Nation 01.09.2020

Is meditation just a trick pulled by creepy, crystal-worshiping aging hippies to skeeze on college Buddhist chicks? Or is it actually a way to set your mind at ease and channel some inner peace? The boys try it every day for a week to find out. Featuring standup clips from the eternally amazing Emily Heller (this one's a specially selected deep cut) and our sweet boy Benjamin Roy! Learn more about...

Lighten Your Load 18.08.2020

If you love someone, let them go. If you love something, grow up. It's an inanimate object. Life is about experiences, not things. Stop keeping so much shit in your house. In this episode, Andrew, Adam, and Ben purge one item per day for a week straight—which explains that recent flood of Those Who Can't merch at Denver-area Goodwill stores.  Featuring standup from Denver's darlings Christie Buche...

Personality Plus 04.08.2020

In an effort to understand one another from the inside out—but not in a disgusting way—Andrew, Adam, and Ben take personality tests to find out once and for all whether they're assholes or just wired a certain way. Spoiler alert: It's both!  Featuring standup clips from Phoebe Bottoms and Chris Charpentier. Enjoy! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Welcome to the Dungeon 21.07.2020

Continuing the trend of walking a mile in one another's discount Keds sneakers, Andrew challenges Ben and Adam to play a spirited game of D&D—AND NOT MAKE FUN OF IT. Join our intrepid trio as they saunter about a mystical realm armed with only their wits! And a bunch of badass medieval weapons.  Featuring standup clips from Patrick Richardson and Steph Tolev! Learn more about your ad choices. Visi...

Now Entering the Twilight Zone 07.07.2020

Realizing that they may be too high and mighty when it comes to their reading pursuits, the boys decide to read Twilight, a wildly popular book that they would typically sneer at. The results are exactly what you expect—Ben, Adam and Andrew each fall for separate hunky vampires and run away with them into the woods. The podcast is now over. It's the ending we all saw coming.  Featuring standup cli...

Float On 23.06.2020

In an attempt to get in touch with their inner selves, the boys decide to give sensory-deprivation salt tanks a go. No light. No sound. Just afloat in 200 gallons of salt water and with nothing but their own thoughts to keep them company. Will they discover deep truths? Will they go crazy? Will they convince a posh float studio to let them do it for free? Look inward. The answers await.   Featurin...
