#17 - Joseph’s Journal 4/4: Pizza Hut High School 10.08.2021 1:09:45
Dear Listener, In this surprisingly financial episode we discuss an easy way to make $100, an even easier way to steal $10, and how to avoid getting scammed in New Orleans. I hope you don’t think it’s a disaster (just like my room). Also in this episode: “I bet I can guess where you got your cloak. Around thy shoulders!”, “I discovered myself pope-ing out from behind a coconut tree. I was nice and...
#16 - Joseph’s Journal 3/4: Some Old Alien and a Serial Squisher 01.08.2021 47:58
THEO ISN’T GOOD. THEO ISN’T GOOD. Alright, buckle up for a wild episode. We’ve got aliens, giants, thiefs, turkeys, the grim reaper, and of course Satan. We also come up with three new holidays in this meditation that we hope will put you to sleep. Also in this episode: “Every time you write a new sentence, you forget the previous one.”, handling your spaghetti, Satan’s standup routine, Joseph’s m...
#15 - Joseph’s Journal 2/4: Celebrities and Supervillains 20.07.2021 55:55
Hey, it’s Brad Ppitttt from Moneyballl! I’m here to say if you like bad celebrity impressions and even worse supervillain concepts, then this is the episode for you. If not, then maybe you like fan submissions and fan mail. Or maybe you’ve had the impulse to eat like a dog, dress like Mr. Potato Head, or wanted to know the best way to go bobbing for apples? You’ll find all that and more in this ex...
#14 - Joseph’s Journals 1/4: Beefisode 14: Handwritten Waste of Paper 10.07.2021 53:02
In today’s episode we’ve got some fresh beef and we’re starting on Joseph’s journal! So take a break from talking all the time and use your sense of hearing to listen to Dr. Theo and Captain Joseph. Today we discuss a great way to build muscles in your fingers and we figure out once and for all what X is equal to. This is a beefisode for everyone except Jamal Lewis. Also in this episode: “I think...
#13 - Quest of the Dragon Bonus Episode: Oops! All Dragons 01.07.2021 57:11
Happy Tom or Jim Day! We’ve finally finished Quest of the Dragon, so naturally we have to keep talking about it. In today’s episode we create an AI ending, the cast for the big budget blockbuster, and we break down the hero’s journey. Then we go to Hogwarts and we die. Also in this episode: “It’s called Harry Potter, not Harry Potter the Very Special Wizard”, “It’s pronounced ‘buke’ not book, so s...
#12 - Quest of the Dragon 11/11: Green Plant Squirt Juice 20.06.2021 52:01
Think of a happy memory, partner! We have a lot to celebrate this episode: finishing Quest of the Dragon, getting our first review for 3 Cowboys, releasing the podcast, and becoming published authors again! So, take a break from playing with ants to admire our podcast UI. Now think of a sad memory - this returns you to equilibrium. Also in this episode: “Maybe there was just like a blob with a duc...
#11 - Quest of the Dragon 10/11: Field Day 10.06.2021 56:46
Welcome to Inside the Mind of a Child Genius : the podcast/religion/cult made by computers for computers. If that sounds like you, then come on in to listen to us talk about songs with farts that you can’t smile at, our rock collections, and the secret to fooling a mind reader (it’s self-inflicted head trauma!). In this podcast every day feels like field day, so go get a spoon and an egg. You know...
#10 - Quest of the Dragon 9/11: Excellent Ad Ahead 02.06.2021 47:24
In today’s episode we email Oprah, inspire JK Rowling, and work with Jay Z. We also write a really threatening ad, brainstorm merchandise for Quest of the Dragon, and consider putting 3 Cowboys on a billboard. If you listen there may just be a non-erotic hot cup of Joe, Jojo, and Tony in it for you. Thanks for listening, Carl. Also in this episode: “There was nothing much to talk about, because th...
#9 - Quest of the Dragon 8/11: Five Stars, Filthy, and Great for the Kids 21.05.2021 59:19
Juilliard Presents: Inside the Mind of a Child Genius, an aggressively off topic podcast with no current events and way too much roasting of Beth Sadler. We try to say something interesting even if we don't believe it. In this episode, we finally get a dragon (you won’t be disappointed), and Eledor is going to be ban here too! We hope you enjoy it and give us a good rating otherwise it’d be a sham...
#8 - Quest of the Dragon 7/11: Our Oscar Moment 10.05.2021 1:18:26
Theo goes full on Morgan Freeman, we discover we would be terrible sports commentators, and Uncle Andy humps Joseph. Claxton gets married, writes a book, and proves a point. A whole world including weather fits into an unexpectedly small vessel, and we learn what GP is...sort of. Theo invents Christianity and thinks he might be God. Joseph thinks he might be Jesus, or maybe the Antichrist. A lion...
#7 - Quest of the Dragon 6/11: Beefisode 7: Manly Boys 01.05.2021 1:01:53
Theo and Joseph don’t like beefing, and what they just had was a beef. We blame everything on you, the listener, and we hold you hostage. We take on important issues like criminal justice reform and spelling bee rules. Joseph discovers he could’ve been the “fly on the head guy”, and Devin totally forgets all about Elias. Shannon banishes Joseph, Seth is good at trees, and David is the size of a do...
#6 - Quest of the Dragon 5/11: Catchers Don’t Reveal Their Secrets 20.04.2021 57:43
The janitor washes the floor around an unconscious Devin. We get our first fan fiction (from 2013) and then purge our listeners. Tyler Jonsin and Ranger Tody join and then quickly leave. Jillian gets her comeuppance. Trains suck. We revolutionize kickball. Theo downloads several computer viruses, loses a million dollars on the stock market, and “doesn’t never catch it”. Paige needs to invest more...
#5 - Quest of the Dragon 4/11: What They Just Had Was a Fight 10.04.2021 1:01:12
We get our first review for 3 cowboys, kind of. We briefly rename our podcast to GameBros and flex our vast lack of football knowledge. Theo brings us inside his mind as a child genius and reveals his childhood dreams. We start sourcing our material from mantelligence.com. Joseph raps about counting, Theo accidentally speaks into existence an army of Hitlers, and Devin gets lost, again. Also in th...
#4 - Quest of the Dragon 3/11: Crash Bandicoot 01.04.2021 59:56
We create a new genre of literature. Joseph finds a journal with hints of Y2K fear, and he fails his fanbase by not writing erotic fiction. Crash Bandicoot has a few choice words for Claxton. We invent a bad computer virus. Theo panic buys dragon titles. Hankin gets tired of bullying. Theo talks about his circular wandering as a child, and we spend an inordinate amount of time discussing, and sing...

We give tips for meeting your new year’s resolution to read more books. Lisa’s status as a bully is doubted. Theo performs an elaborate bird flex. We divulge our noisy and violent sleeping stories. Theo gets bullied for making video games, gets punched on an empty stomach, and has his style ridiculed. We continue to increase the evil doings counter, as well as the average doings counter, and the p...
#2 - Quest of the Dragon 1/11: Free Time From Punches 01.04.2021 43:05
We start reading Quest of the Dragon by Theo. Joseph discovers he’s the host of a podcast. Theo gets Joseph a gift. We discuss erotic fiction (not for the last time). Joseph reveals his guide to raising teenagers. We continue to struggle with nicknames. Theo recounts his misadventures in fishing and Joseph recounts his misadventures in the Spanish language. We discuss the acceptable margin of slob...
#1 - Three Cowboys 01.04.2021 40:13
We discuss a Western themed novella written by a presumably much younger Joseph. Several of Joseph's early attempts at formatting are drawn into question. We discover what "Tony" is short for. Oprah's integrity is disputed and her secret identity revealed. Theo recounts an episode in his early life that causes him to question his status as a genius, but he redeems himself in the end when he shares...
