The Valleycast

Joe and Elliott were totally abandoned by Steve on this podcast so they responded like professionals do... with meandering conversation covering topics ranging from the death of traditional celebrity to the existential rumination of "what's next?". They also talked about the importance of making a difference through community outreach and in-person interaction... LIKE THE TITLE SAYS, DUMMY! Music/...

Steve and Elliott are back, it's 2026, and we're thriving. Oh, what's that? Joe slept in? Joe joins toward the end of the podcast?! We're discussing Stranger Things, Haha You Clowns, and all sorts of other treats? We're even discussing some of the GOOD THINGS that happened in 2025? Now that's what I call Now Music!

A lot of podcasts don't upload this time of year. What are they afraid of? That's what I wanna know. We're out here, dropping podcasts on Christmas Eve. Why? I don't know. Bravery? Merriment? The male loneliness epidemic that we can only treat by way of weekly Zoom chats? You be the judge. Merry Christmas, you filthy beacons of stardust emanating light throughout the cosmos. You're all our north s...

In this episode, Elliott tells the tale of the trickster Coyote and some of his myriad exploits, and he tells tales about his tailbone. Joe listens patiently, and the two share once more in a friendship almost as eternal as the Indigenous trickster himself--or herself, or themselves, of course. Enjoy your winter season, everyone, however you celebrate it. Amen. Music/SFX: If you like our sounds, s...

In this episode of the Valleycast, Elliott does a solo WITH SPECIAL GUEST JOE BERETA! That's right, folks. Today, it's all about hygiene, models (the tiny kind, not the pretty kind), millennial placating, and reading nice (?) comments from Elliott's fledgling but promising career as a hilarious political commentator. Isn't that fun? Music/SFX: If you like our sounds, sign up for ONE FREE MONTH on...

Today Steve and Elliott discuss their Thanksgiving holidays. Elliott had a lovely, relaxing day and Steve was viciously maligned by an infant. We also talk Disney Adults vs. Theme Park Enthusiasts, and then the chat turns into Steve explaining to Elliott how to go to the park, before ending on the nature of consumerism (because ultimately this show is about SUBSTANCE, folks) Music/SFX: If you like...

Today it's all about our buddy Matt Raub's CELEBRITY DEATHSNATCH! At least that's what I think it's called! I don't know! I wasn't there for this episode, but Joe and Steve were, so enjoy!

Today we don wigs, because it's been a second since we wore wigs. Have you worn a wig lately? Recreationally, I mean? It's a real thrill. But don't worry. Our hilarious wigs didn't stop us from diving into all sorts of new treats. We talk about Steve's new show, his vlog, and what we've all been watching, like It: Welcome to Derry. But mostly we talk about farts. Music/SFX: If you like our sounds,...

Joe and Elliott get completely out of their depth talking about things they have absolutely no business talking about. They should really keep their traps shut, I'm talkin' gorilla glued shit, but nah, they just keep yapping. But that's podcasts, right? We don't do FANCY SETS or COME PREPARED. Nah, we just read books that are randomly left open next to us while pondering the fickle nature of an AI...

WARNING: DO NOT stop in the middle of dissertation writing to talk about Taylor Swift on a podcast by yourself. You can't HANDLE it, Elliott. And OH, you're saying bad things about Taylor Swift? Well now we got Bad Blood, I guess. No, I love Taylor Swift. I do. I think she's fine. What wasn't fine was the series of propaganda campaigns that began in the 20th century and utilized fledgling mass med...

As time passes and life's end comes into view, sometimes we develop pet peeves. But sometimes, if you're Steve, you develop a lot of them, and you tell your pals, Joe and Elliott, about them, and they listen to Steve, because they know it's important that he gets this stuff off his chest. It's called friendship. Grow up. Music/SFX: If you like our sounds, sign up for ONE FREE MONTH on us at Epidem...

Joe and Elliott speak from opposite sides of the planet as Elliott navigates the wild world of Scotland and Joe navigates... rats? It's important to note that rats are highly intelligent and emotionally complex creatures who have done little more to earn their nefarious reputation than committing the sin of having a hairless tail. This comment section better remain pro-rat, but if you see someone...

I shaved my stupid face and I answered "your" questions, okay? Is it is as good as the episode Joe did recently? Probably not. Did I use it as an excuse ramble incessantly? Yeah. Am I self-conscious about my face? Who isn't?! WHO ISN'T SELF-CONSCIOUS ABOUT MY FACE?! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

People sent Joe questions and Joe takes the time to answer them. Old jobs, pickleball, huckleberries and magic 1990's magazines that helped make him a man. Nothing is off the table...
