El Corner Booth

First things first, we have our first paying sponsor. WE ARE DOING THIS PROFESSIONALLY. So go eat at Bleu Door Bakery in Vancouver. Second things second, do you even know what fungible means? Neither do we and  we don't give a f&#*$.  Bridge tolls? Don't care. BIRDS? They can go straight to hell. Chad's not a republican but when it comes to birds he is. We round it out with the meat of this week's...

After a rocky last week, El Corner Booth is back. Chad's finally back from Palm Springs and has things to say. Which, honestly, we love. It's a beaut out there, folks, and we're ready for rooftop bars, frose from Airfield and the view from our miserable workspaces to be sunny. 

One of our favorite humans came to join Chad in some movie deep dives from each decade.  We go pretty long but have a great time!  

But seriously, how the fuck does AI work? What really is the "stock market?" Gluten??? Never heard of it. Fake news.  In this episode we just say what everyone is thinking and ask the big questions. So, like, does dry cleaning not use any water at all? Is flour made from wheat? Do financial advisors wear suits every day to work?! WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!  

Welp, Chad got his wish and Ruthie watched Coyote Ugly to refresh her memory. BOY DID SHE REFRESH HER MEMORY. We don't just skim over the boring parts because there are no boring parts.  And listen: we've got John Goodman, Piper Perabo (who is she anyway?), TYRA BANKS, some hot Australian dude and Melanie Lynsky. THE Melanie Lynskey.   Y'ever heard of a 1-2? Hell no, H2O! Curled hair, $300 tips, 

Ruthie got her way. In this episode Chad and Ruthie talk about their high school experiences. Ruthie in Idaho, Chad in Portland. Cars, school lunch, grades, and after school activities. The sound is way better in this one, you're welcome.  Thanks to I Love That For You ( www.ilovethatforu.com ) for giving you all a discount code! Check out their stuff, it's super rad. 

We've made it. We are at the point in our journey where people are asking to be involved. Nevermind it's Ruthie's child. Nevermind she needed something to do on Spring Break. What matters is she's here. We chat while eating orange chicken and chow mein. We discuss icks, TV (no shit, Einstein), el radio (always incorporating that foreign lang) and the fact that Ricky Martin is 52 years old. 

In this eppy we discuss our past jobs - when they were (some of us excavated at the age of 9), what we wore (swimsuits), who our bosses were (sometimes our dads), our pay (very little) and our job duties. Just laying a foundation for who we are and how far we've come...or not. 

In this episode, Ruthie takes up 75% of the time with stories and ponderings of Disneyland. Why is Disney so weird and the people there so awful? What even are Hokas and Genie + is an absolutely rip-off but a necessary one. Chad went to Vegas, sold some rebar, wore a lanyard, and ate foie gras cotton candy. We tried our hand at intros and outros and we are slowly but steadily growing this communit...

We are the type of people who know when things aren't perfect. Episode two is better than episode one but isn't as good as episode three is gonna be. We talk about Best, Worst, Weirdest and then skedaddle on over to home decor and geese in bonnets (how do you even spell that)? Stick with us. 

It may have taken 90 minutes to figure out the microphone situation and another 20 to figure out how to actually record, but episode one is out. Is it great? No. It is groundbreaking? Nowhere near. Will it make you chuckle? Yes?    GIVE US TIME.  We are gonna knock your socks off with things that absolutely never matter in the world. Because truly, do you care that one time I bought a piece of "ar...
