In this our 87th episode of the Braingasm podcast we are flying solo once again.

We began as we do every week with Ben complaining about the audio quality and abruptly pausing the record to fix it. 

After that we did a bit of BS-ing. Cesca gave a status update about her new humble abode and Ben told the story of his first ever comedy show. It’s a good story and the effect that it had on Ben is obvious in the way he tells…

In this third instalment of Cargasm we are joined by the elder statesman of Niagara Comedy, Jeff Stroop. This is part one of what will have to be a two part conversation which I consider Niagara Comedy: A People’s History.

This is a recording of the drive back from historic Club 54 in Burlington (home of the longest running stand up comedy show in television history). This was Ben’s first and Jeff’s hundred and first time performing there.…

In this shaken not stirred instalment of the wildly popular and father to many Braingasm Reviews series Ben, Jordan (@jowoco), and Zack (@Z_h_) reviewed the beloved latest entry in the James Bond film series, Skyfall.

In keeping with tradition they broke the discussion down to a spoiler free first segment and a spoiler ridden second segment. If you haven't seen the movie I would highly recommend that you not spy on the second…

In this back-to-basics 82nd episode of The Braingasm Podcast we are joined by an elite task force of familiar faces. Shakyl Lambert (@the_gamin_king), Jordan Worth Cobb (@jowoco), and a little later in the festivities Scott Johnson (@scottpjthoughts).

We began as we do every week with Shakyl doing high quality racism. 

After that we BS’d but good for a while talking about the ridiculous age difference between Bradley Cooper and…

In this instalment of the popular Braingasm Reviews series, Ben is joined by Andrew Robinson (@gmanreviews) and Vincent Rivano (@theshiny1) to discus the newest film by director Rian Johnson (Brick, Brothers Bloom, that episode of Breaking Bad where they're trying to kill the fly) Looper. They broke the discussion down into a spoiler free and spoiler zone to give you guys the best of both worlds. 

As you will…

In this our 79th episode of The Braingasm Podcast we are joined by two men: One of whom you should be very familiar with. The other Ben has seen naked…several times. Craig Watkins (@craigfwatkins) and Zak McDonald (@zakmcdonald) stopped by to talk about the recent premiere of their new film The Store (https://www.facebook.com/TheStoreMovie).

We began as we do every week with Ben telling his…

In this our 78th episode of the Braingasm Podcast we are Cesca less and Ben heavy but don’t hold that against us. We were joined by locally and soon to be globally legendary Magician/Comedian Alex Kazam (Add him on facebook).



We began as we do every week by blaming art for all of the world’s problems.



This episode is an hour and a quarter conversation between Ben and Alex that covers topics as wild and varied as their views of show business, why…

In this our 77th episode (alliteration yay!) of the Braingasm Podcast we are joined by the black Wesley Snipes, Shakyl (@the_gaming_king).



We began as we do every week with Ben getting paranoid that someone is going to steal the podcast’s name.



After that we BSed for a while about Breaking Bad, Breaking Bad haters, and other non-Breaking Bad topics as well.



That segued nicely into our What’s Been Filling Our Void section. Quick editor’s…

Hey guys.



I posted this earlier but allow me to elaborate. Cesca and I have decided to participate in this year's Extra Life charity video game marathon. We were drafted in the 3rd round by team Spillio (captained by the lovely Caitlin Turner) so all of your donations go to show people that Braingasm fans and Spill fans at large are the best and most awesomest community on the Internet (no pressure).

In this our 60th episode of the Braingasm Podcast we are joined by two special gentlemen from the MAXcast podcast, Jordan (MaxJayJay on Spill) and Chicago Jonathan ( <--- on Spill).



We began as we do every week with Ben doing an impression of Jordan Cobb. 



After that we mellowed out and had a rousing chat and BS section. Topics discussed include: clip shows, MAXcast, Ryan and Ben's history of tormenting Zack, Rick…

In this our second installment of an ongoing series where Ben talks one on one with each of the contenders in the Braingasm 2012 Summer Movie Wager we get down and dirty with former co-host and all around bad ass mofo Ryan Corderman



The boys talked about their version of the history of Easter, Ben talked about being in first place, Zack, Six Feet Under and Breaking Bad, Movie Wager strategies, Ryan’s inexplicable love of 80s Glam Rock, and all kinds of good…

In this our 59th episode of The Braingasm Podcast we are joined by friends both old and new in the forms of Shakyl (@The_gaming_king) and Splinter47 from The Bloody Thumbs Podcast (@Splinter47).

We began as we do every week by introducing ourselves (longtime fans will get why that's funny)

We talked about Shakyl's recent 19th birthday. After that we had a brief getting to know you chat with Splinter which was all about his…

In this our 58th episode of The Braingasm Podcast we are joined by reigning super fan Denis (@den1981), and later by movie wager suck master Thomas (@neozectt).

We began as we do every week with Ben doing the opening to the show so fast that even he doesn't know what was said.

After that we had a lively discussion of the past week's events, which were numerous and varied. Denis went to the dentist and heard the words every human being dreads...oops.…

In this our 57th episode we are Cesca-less but guest-full. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Shakyl (@the_gaming_king) and Scott (@scottpjthoughts). 

We began as we do every week with a strange thud sound from off mic. Seriously, what is that?

From there we transitioned into some idle chit chat about black comedy, which was brought on through a discussion of

Key and Peele. 

After that we…

In this our 56th episode of The Braingasm Podcast we are solo and sink so low. It's St. Patrick's Day and we celebrate Braingasm style. 

We began as we do every week with Cesca back (say WHAT???)

After that we got into the meat of the show starting with Cesca explaining her recent absence and generally shooting the sheet.

At this point Ben brought in the X factor this week, which was that this episode for him would be one long drinking game.…

In this our 55th episode of the Braingasm Podcast we are joined by Shakyl (@the_gaming_king) and Denis (@den1981).

We began as we do every week by showing Denis “What What In The Butt?” for the first time and having him describe it. 

After that we moved on into What’s Been Filling Our Voids. Shakyl saw and hated Ghost Rider: Spirit of BULL SH*T. Denis got webbed up by a giant robotic spider in his discussion of Wild Wild West (The TV Show not…

In this our 53rd episode of the Braingasm Podcast we are having a big ol' sausage fest. Cesca couldn't be here but in her stead we were joined by returning champs Thomas Carver (@neozectt) and JORDAN F***ING COBB (@jowoco).

We began as we do every week by discussing the risks of grilling phallic looking foodstuffs without pants on. We also discussed Valentines day, lancing wounds, Ben's recent ghost-ish experience, Thomas' adventures in retail, and other…

In this our 52nd, and first sponsored episode of the Braingasm Podcast we are joined by absolutely no one but each other. 

We began as we do every week by announcing that this episode is brought to you by Audible.com

We started off talking about Cesca's new beau who is much, Much, MUCH younger than her. After that we talked about the new sponsor and some of our future plans for the Braingasm nation. We also briefly discussed the Super…

In this our 51st episode of the Braingasm Podcast we gave Cesca the night off so that we could focus on one of our favourite shows. NBC’s Chuck. Denis Mcelwaine (@den1981) took Cesca’s spot and he and Ben Whipps had a nice conversation 

We began as we do every week with Ben commenting on how Cesca would have responded to his intro had she been there.

Following that we skipped WBFYV, but we did cut our teeth on a nice and easy discussion of the show…
