Funbearable

Full vid Well Funbears + cubs, you've been writing in and we've been listening! We open the show with the concept of gratitude journaling. But we spend the majority of this episode diving into listener mail - and we talk: Neal Brennan's "Blocks," defending Brad's Indiana-food habits, the show Paul T. Goldman, moped appreciation, Chuck's insane laugh, much talk about o...

Full vid! The show starts out with Ray kink-shaming Chuck. Wow! The truth comes out! Then, the boys jump into the world of artificial intelligence. After a short discussion about the ethics, we finally ask the question we've all been pondering: could a computer write an episode of Funbearable? Could the Jamboree be replaced by Jambo-robots? We find out! After (spoiler alert) the boys prove the...

Ray is out to sea, ladies and gentlemen. Chuck and Brad are back on the mainland and Chuck is aching to talk about the newest installment in the Scream franchise - Scream 6! So as Ray sits this one out (floats it out?) C+B dive DEEP into the Scream series, and specifically Scream 6. This is spoiler territory for sure, so be warned! Is Chuck TERRIFIED of this NY-based film now that he's in the big...

Full video: https://youtu.be/xhfiSEYvMEw It's a wacky week everybody! Distil Union sends the Funboys some Small-ets! Wow!

Vid here: https://youtu.be/6cQS7L0SuiA We open up the podcast by finding out that Brad eats oatmeal to calm down when he's enraged. Please get ready for a never-ending series of references to this. The majority of the podcast revolves around Ray performing on his first cruise. Our lumbering giant finds himself in a whirlwind of nightmare travel, including a trip on an airplane that is basically a...

Full video: https://youtu.be/mz8v-VFV8W4 Fun guys, fun times, Funbears! This week we talk about David Harbour's "Violent Night," and ponder Chuck and Ray's (very different) barber conundrums. And then - what zens us out? Watch the man-children revert to children-children as they discuss Legos, video games and puzzles (of the crossword variety). This somehow turns into a nihilistic conversation abo...

Full vid here: https://youtu.be/wbnpK6qxR6Q The Funboys are back in town to discuss Jeffrey Epstein's innocent friends, and Chuck getting pulled over with an expired registration, expired inspection stickers, and an expired license with Ray and Brad in the car.

Video here: https://youtu.be/PiOdgWhYW-I The Fun Bear Gang opens the podcast by apologizing for a faux pas. We made jokes about celebrity deaths and ACCIDENTALLY released a "Pelé death joke" clip on the day that Pelé perished, coincidentally. So we use our "pre-cog" powers to make NEW predictions we HOPE come true (unlike Pelé's death, which we did NOT cause). We then wonder about Ray starring in...

Video here: https://youtu.be/L-3r7vSqxeI The Jamboree is here! We're jumping right into discussions of the three bulging disc boys. Which two of the trio have had back surgery? Which one of the trio was erroneously referred to as the "son" of another? We introduce the brand new Funbearable game "Six Degrees of Chuck Staton." Do fictional characters count? Chuck says "yes," while the world says "no...

After that, the boys jump into a little behind-the-scenes of their creativity. We get into t...

Ray brings his special Christmas Cake to the table (literally) and Brad's neuroses are revealed in nauseating detail.
