Most of these were previously only available on the website.  We're lazy so here's a whole episode of them!

From #-0.5: Pilot (10/16/2011) - Roy and Jay are getting ready for their first trial run at podcasting. They briefly discuss their sci-fi epic "Alienthing," try to convince Vance to introduce their show, and watch a parody of AMC's The Walking Dead.

From #1: Spooktacular (10/30/2011) - Cut from our Halloween podcast due to time, Jay tries to convince Roy to give Harry Potter a chance...

From #5: Relationship Expert (2/5/2012) - These nuggest of out-takes show just what a difference a soundtrack can make.  Listen to how the sad Hulk music can change the tone of any conversation.

From #8: What Were We Thinking? (3/5/2012) - Jay and Marcus read a somewhat skewed scene from Back to the Future.  Thanks to Paul F. Tompkins and the Pod F. Tompkast for the inspiration (we flat out stole his idea).

From #9: Magical Girls (3/22/2012) - Out-takes from our interview with Tabitha Lewis, Magical Girl Expert (TM).  We talk about Degrassi Junior High, MySpace, and Lily Allen.

From #14: Reading Rainbow (4/22/2012) - The FKAers realized Marcus hadn't added any books to their list.  Jay invited Marcus to Bad Foundations Studio to remedy that.

From #17: Phoosy Limited (5/21/2012) - An out-take from our trip down Phoosy Memory Lane.  Plus Paul Vance and Abbey Sparrow throw in their two cents.  Check out our photo gallery for corresponding images.

From #36: Favorite Video Games (11/3/2012) - Some out-takes from our discussion with Michael Socarras.  Also we play a round of Formerly Feud and, as an added bonus, included in this episode is a riveting 30 seconds in which Marcus loses his cell phone!  Who run Butter Town?

This week we recorded at Smokehouse Studios and celebrated the return of our magical girl Tabitha Lewis, our first threepeater. Will Marcus finally get a firm grasp on what a magical girl is? Will Tabitha be able to differentiate between Bill Murray and Eddie Murphy? Will Roy overcome his obsession with the 80s? Will Jay accept his place in the stars as the greatest living podcaster? Probably not, but here’s some BS we recorded.
