• Check out Booyah 90's Now - loweffortcontent.com   In lieu of a normal episode, this week we listen in while Rob and Joe of Booyah 90's Now react to Ronnie's story about nostalgia, holography, and impulse purchases. 

Who needs a kidney when you can have a new car? In this slice-of-life episode, the boys attempt to fix up The Hotwad, but it doesn't go to plan... mostly for Carl. One of the very last TV-PG episodes of Aqua Teen, Ronnie gushes about his all-time favorite ATHF episode. Other topics discussed include Will Ferrell maybe kind of almost being in the 2007 ATHF film, egregious auto repair bills, and the...

Are you looking to make a quick buck? Can you rap? Are you especially skilled in not developing relationships with the elderly? Then MC P Pants University is for you! Back in his original spider form, MC Pee Pants is here to teach you the ways of the stealth reverse mortgage. Besides covering this, we go through some of the stock footage used in the episode, how the economics of the production len...

Imagine the best sandwich you've ever had. Like, ever. Now imagine if you ate it all, you'd die. Would you be able to resist? Master Shake wasn't. In this dread-filled episode, the William's Street crew pushes Aqua Teen to the limit-- to great success. Filled with collectibles, Don Hertzfeldt homages, disembodied voices (Isaac Hayes III), relationship quarrels (H. Jon Benjamin and Jon Glaser), Vog...

• MC Chris at Lodge Room in LA, Saturday August 13th - https://tinyurl.com/mcchrisLA • MC Chris THE LAST TOUR Tickets - https://mcchris.com/pages/shows   This week I had the honor and privilege of sitting down with MC Chris while he had a day off from his LAST TOUR.

Due to the unexpected passing of my mother and my wedding/Honeymoon in less than two weeks, I won't have enough time to get any episodes finished for a while. I'll be back in full (aqua teen hunger) force on July 11th. Take care. 

If you had a monster in the attic, how would you react? Would you kill it? Would you force it to leave? Or would you take pity on its lameness, helping it become a monster of legendary proportions? If you chose the third option, you might be Master Shake. In this "Bus-of-the-Undead-done-right" episode, Willie Nelson-- not THAT Willie Nelson-- (played by Tom Scharpling) turns out to be much more ho...

Did the pandemic force you into a new job sector? It did for Carl. In this companion episode to The Broodwich (which we will cover soon!), AquaDonk expands the... Aquaverse(?), not only giving us a peek into Carl's life in 2022, but for the first time shows us interaction between Carl and the Broodwich/wrap. Ronnie gushes about how this short met all his AquaDonk hopes and dreams, and lists off a...

Are you sick and tired of that boring old "Happy Birthday" song? Master Shake has you covered. Combining two of rock's biggest stars, Geddy Lee (voiced by Matt Maiellaro) and Zakk Wylde (voiced by the actual Zakk Wylde), Shake creates a heavy (in the philosophical, musical, and financial contexts) replacement. Going into debt north of a million bucks, Shake is forced to come up with the money... o...

This week lawyer Megan Rooney answered all my burning legal questions relating to Revenge of the Trees. Megan also talks about how Carl inspired her backyard water feature. In addition to this, I ramble about the new Rabbot Comparison video I did, and the 20 disc Aqua Teen Hunger Force: The Complete Collection DVD Box Set!

Master Shake is in some serious legal trouble... in the woods. Carl is being used as a human Post-It note. Frylock tries to work within the system to save his friends, but quickly realizes the system is stupid. Giving us more voice actors than we've ever had before, this multifaceted episode teaches us one thing: Trees are dumb as hell. Other topics discussed include Outkast's Speakerboxxx/The Lov...

Has science gone too far? On his mission to rid the world of unnecessary water waste, Frylock (naturally) kills Carl. After several attempts to bring him back-- some involving trees, cadavers, and eyeballs-- Carl gets a nice Tonka-tuff body. Master Shake steals Meatwad's joke, but then must pay the ultimate price... well, not really, because he's back next episode. Other topics discussed include f...

BLOW THE AQUAHORN, the boys are back! In the first AquaDonk Side Pieces, Handbanana shows up. Frylock gets the mail. Carl tries to escape. Handbanana starts to die... but doesn't (?). Meatwad makes horchata. The Enforcer wants to be called Spaghetti. Shake has been taking horn lessons. We weave through all the choppy voice editing, characters we haven't covered yet, and redundant plotlines to ulti...

If you had access to the stargate.. sorry, FAR gate, how would you use it? Would you steal from the world's banks? Use it to fast travel to different continents for leisure? Or would you use it to steal cable? If you chose the latter, you'd probably fit in well with the Plutonians. Emory and Oglethorpe get high (420 blaze it), blast their eyes out, make counterfeit shirts, and unleash the universa...

Frylock will do anything to beat Wayne "The Main Brain" McClain at bar trivia. ANYTHING. Frylock wants those bar dollars. "Well surely he wouldn't ludovico technique his friends over the course of a week, force feeding all the world's events except for sports into their brains, would he?" Wow, he actually does exactly that. You must have already seen this episode. I mean I assume you have if you l...

Meatwad is a man of many mysteries. While Frylock clearly has powers throughout the show, Meatwad gets them occasionally... sort of. In a Stephen King inspired "Meatwad gets powers" episode, instead of abusing Shake or Frylock with these powers, he uses his prophecies to jump on Frylock's bed and eat his caulk. Shake loses the lotto, and gets covered in bones and doo-doo. Other topics discussed in...

If your roommate didn't pay the bills, how would you handle it? Would you kick him out? Would you pay them yourself? Would you do nothing to team him a lesson? If you chose the latter, you might be Frylock. Shake and Frylock are stuck at an impasse, while Meatwad suffers without a weenie smoothie. Shake decides to abandon ship and live at Carl's house-- which results in Carl shooting himself in th...

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice... do what now? Meatwad falls for yet another MC Pee Pants scheme (this time feeding da shorteez, AKA accumulating dangerous amounts of fly digestive acid to break into the First National Bank to pay off some patio furniture), but Frylock is by his side the entire time. Shake sees his steak and eggs and just sorta disappears. It happens. Also, Carl has cra...

In February's community Jiggle, we go over the usual stuff-- general Aqua Teen happenings, episode afterthoughts, feedback, etc. Dana Snyder graces us with some Mayhem of the Mooninites info!

The Aqua Teens react in their own ways to their new alien friend, Travis of the Cosmos. Frylock becomes a strict parent. Meatwad becomes a tattletale. Shake... passes out most of the episode. We get some insight from the wonderful Brooks Braselman, voice of Travis, about how Pizzicato Five helped to craft this underrated episode. Other topics discussed include The Room (o hai), Mars Volta, and get...

If your friend got plastic surgery, how would you handle it? Would you congratulate them? Would you ignore it? Or would you continue to point out their flaws, encouraging them to turn themselves into monsters? If you chose the latter, your name might be Meatwad. Other topics discussed include Michael Jackson's plastic surgery, Static-X, and who Dana Snyder is following on Instagram. References: •...

If a caveman stole your computer, would you install games on it for him? Well Frylock does, and its a big mistake. Jon Glaser plays Oog, a sassy business-savy prehistoric douche. Taking the fruits of Frylock's labor, Oog makes millions while trying to rip Oog head off. Other topics discussed include Greta Van Fleet, Xbox Gamepass, and suspending RAM in colloidal fluid.  References: • Clam Digger G...

Grab your musket, grab your red dancing shoes, grab your night vision goggles! In the inaugural Community Jiggle, Ronnie discusses the 15 year anniversary of the Boston Mooninite bomb scare, another ATHF podcast, a 2002 Aqua Teen fan page, listener feedback (& additional discussion) on episodes covered this month (Super Birthday Snake, Super Hero, Super Bowl), a sticker giveaway, and more! Commenc...

If you won two tickets to the Super Bowl, who would you bring? After pitting Carl and Master Shake against each other, Meatwad decides to bring.... Boxy Brown. A classic "Meatwad's power goes to his head" episode, Carl and Shake force themselves to be nice to Meatwad for a chance at attending the biggest sporting event of the year. Little do they know, is that the Super Bowl didn't even ask Meatwa...
