A year and a half ago, Marls told me I was too stupid to make a podcast. He said I was a mouth-breathing troglodyte with spoiled tapioca pudding for brains and that the constitutional right of freedom of speech should not apply to me (those might not have been his exact words).
He may have been right-- until now.
In honor of Marls, I humbly present the greatest (and possibly most dangerous) audio project ever slapped together in the history of mankind (or at least the history of Greasetruck Studios).
What an excellent day for an earworm exorcism.
"Earworm Exorcism" is an obsessive, comprehensive, and digressive deep dive into how these insidious creatures worm their way into our brains, wrap around our cerebral cortex, and make us susceptible to suggestions of the catchiest kind.
Thanks to this guy for that description . . .
This is the longest, most ambitious, and most complicated podcast I've ever done. I don't think anything like this exists on the internet.
It is a montage of the sounds that capture our consciousness (and the theory and philosophy of why and how they do this).
But be warned: your brain might not survive unscathed . . . this many earworms have NEVER been assembled in one place before.
Here's a visual of how many audio clips are wedged into this episode.

don winslow stops writing novels and dave publishes his magnum opus. coincidence?
well, yeah. but still.
7 superlatives amid the usual extreme Dave language. This had better be good, Dave!
I never said the tapioca was spoiled!
It feels like I just got a homework assignment to subject myself to loads of earworms.
Not doubting the quality, but I'm going to procrastinate just like I did as a student.
I listened to it this morning. I can vouch for the quality -- great stuff. It's great for ADD.
I was outed as a music geek, and now there's a looming showdown between one of Dave's cronies and me to see who's more of one.
i'm about to add your suggestions, whit. don't want to mention them by name because part of the fun is the quiz aspect
Where are you adding them?
i'm picturing someone walking next to glenn youngkin playing the 'womp womp' sound on repeat. and i'm enjoying it. https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/03/27/dc-capitals-wizards-capital-one-arena-alexandria-bowser-leonsis/
RIP Joe Lieberman.
and that’s all i got to say about that
I'm gloating about the Ted/Glen failure.
And, if you are a basketball nerd and you're not listening to the JJ/LeBron podcast, you're missing a great conversation.
it will be awesome when it comes out that ted had no intention of moving and played glenn to get concessions from dc. and even if it doesn’t, i’m going to pretend that’s how it went down.
Happy Maundy Thursday to you holy folk. I encourage you to wash your feet, enjoy a momentous supper, and love one another.
merry opening day, gheorghies. i encourage you to rub up your bats, enjoy some big league chew, and love one another.
