Two absolute working-class nobodies from Southern California with no formal qualifications to credibly talk about anything - politics, pop culture, sports, current events, etc. - yet think they're more qualified to talk about all of those things because they do it with food and beverages!

  • That Mushroom Zombies Show (Ep. 19)
    Jun 17 2025

    SPOILER ALERT!

    Tom and Travis discuss the The Last of Us - the video games and the first two seasons of the TV show. As the two have wildly differing opinions on the subject, their complicated discussion also touches upon the state of the film industry, online "criticism", and rehashing a decade long debate as to how a certain video game ends.
