Pains of the Plains

It's time for another guest episode and Mattie has brought a special old friend. The guys talk about Easter and have fun with another word game!

Amateur Sultan of Swat Shaun hosts this episode and in routine fashion, enlightens his co-host with another "Papa Shaun's Storytime" section. Afterwards, there is a sports themed activity. Will Mattie and Shane score a touchdown?

Shane, the reigning Prank King, shares stories about his best work and then brings back a new hosts' favorite game...

Spring vibes have hit Mattie hard and he tests the guys' creative expression in a game of Cursed Impressions!

Kicking off Season 2 with Shaun's special guest Holly! The guys get into old country vibes, the infamous Legless Lucas, and calling the bad advice line. 

The green festivities are a'light lass and laddies! The guys talk about plumbing problems, Lunar New Year money laundering, and a DnD-themed deathmatch with a leprechaun!

Love is in the air as Shaun hosts this episode, prompting his unfortunate co-hosts into unveiling their worst and best Valentine's Day memories.

Boy, what a week that was! The guys catch up after the world's longest week break and discuss gaming and world news. Thanks for tuning in!

Shaun tells a story about sniping and brings it home with another awesome edition of Cards Shaun Likes. 

In honor of the Halloween holiday, Shane hosts and tells his scariest story and then continues Mattie's Five Senses activity with the guys' LEAST favorite senses. Have a happy Halloween, Painiacs!

Well... Have you? The guys come back from another break with a test of the senses and how they would recreate their childhood toys

Maybe one day we'll get back on schedule. In this episode, the guys catch up after a long break and discuss new catchphrases and how Shaun met his wife. 

First and foremost, we apologize for the long wait on this episode. We've been keeping Mattie locked in a basement with minimal food for his fasting and he keeps fainting halfway through the edits. Thankfully, he had enough strength to edit this Olympics-themed podcast. Donate to the VEDS Movement (Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome) here at thevedsmovement.org. VEDs is a heritable connective tissue...

Shane hosts another episode and the guys discuss topics such as Keebler elves, why candles are terrible, and much more!

Welcome back after the break! Mattie's hosting and has a fresh serving of Guess the Lyrics and Reddit stories since he doesn't have any cool stories like his co-hosts. The guys talk about relationships, moving into a new house, guess songs they SHOULD know, and much more!

Shane brings another action fueled story...

The guys welcome Shaun's friend Marty for another guest episode and things quickly go wild. From "boing-boing" piercings to eating deer meat with professional musicians, the Pains of the Plains guys deliver again. 

FREEDOM HUDDLE, AMERICA ON THREE! The guys are getting ready for the July 4th celebration with some fun facts about the founding fathers, bicycle crimes, and the difficulties of the American alphabet. Stay safe out there everyone!

The guys have finally reached the 10th episode and Mattie has unleashed tyranny on the structure of the podcast. The title says it all. No Condiment Section, no Anime Spotlight. JUST GAMES! Thank you all for your support of listening to 10 episodes, here's to 10 more!

After last week, Mattie is on the chopping block for having a microphone error in the recording. Shane hosts this week with ghost stories, the boys talk about the existence of NPC's in the real world, and reacharounds are apparently not always a wrong answer...

It's the second guest episode of the podcast with a major twist... Mattie had a blunder with his microphone. The guys talk about Ethan and Shaun's childhood, Goofy sings Lose Yourself, and spankings are scheduled. Thank you for your punishment er- patience as we got this episode out really late. 

Shane takes hold of the mic and lays down his worth as a Pains of the Plains host with a story about brotherly bonding through knife violence. Matt and Shaun get in the hot seat as they play a round of Who Wants to be a Millionaire.

Mattie deals with the aftermath of his first loss in the podcast while Shaun and Shane promote the movie pitches of a lifetime. Tom Holland meets M. Night Shyamalan, Stephen Spielberg meets Adam Sandler, these blockbuster hits are coming to a theater near you... maybe. 

In today's episode, the guys change the format and Shaun overthrows Mattie as host of the podcast. From scientology to Funko Pop conspiracies, Shaun challenges the gang to mental warfare and the importance of pasties.

The boys welcome a guest speaker and things quickly get out of hand. From gastroenteritis to recipes of the human flesh, this is how the guys welcome new blood.
