Listener, the ZC boys have been on a journey. After being ousted from the safe-haven of Google Drive, Zero Credit(s) was forced to exist offline for quite some time, and boy did they take advantage of the situation. With the freedom that comes with no consequences, we tear into other podcasts who fall short of their promised goals. But let’s not talk about that (#ZeroCreditsMarcMaronBeef, #Z...

It's new episode time and just as always, me, the episode detail writer remembered to actually write the description in time and in no way am I writing this seconds before the episode goes live.

Hei there, listeners, and welcome to the newest episode of Zero Credit(s).

**This video contains spoilers for the hit Netflix series Stranger Things** In the distant year of 1983, a podcast disappeared and a small town in Indiana? the continental Midwest worked tirelessly to investigate what exactly a podcast was and if they should care that it disappeared. That podcast was us, (you know, Zero Credit(s)) and we've just made it back from a dark, empty place where figures...

Hey Zero Creditors, John here. Today’s episode is a real special one. Despite being forbidden from discussing Disney Pixar’s perennial masterpiece “Cars,” Henry and I still find some way to entertain.

A sad cloud moves into the Zero Credit(s) house and refuses to leave Henry or John alone, so buckle up for an anti-rousing diatribe against depressing business practices and job hunting woes.

It's a doozy this week, folks as we start a journey into the inner-geek/philosophers of those no-good Zero Credit(s) boys.

Remember what they say: liquor before wine and you’ll feel fine, see a fire-breathing hippo outsi...

Buckle up those spectacles, folks, cause Zero Credits gets weirdly deep thinking this week, featuring the most tangent-filled What Are We Doing segment to exist since the dawn of time (relative to the podcast).
