Dan got hit by a bus. Or, actually, Dan hit a bus. With his bicycle. He broke himself real good. Hear that story, plus one involving a young raccoon (that’s dying), a drug dealer doing something wildly stupid (you really would think they’d be more careful), and 2 stories about being a marine. Sound good? [...]…

Ahhh, back to the interview format this month. This time around, I’m speaking with my friend Sarah about joining a cult for 2 years and then making a run for it, the difficulties of massaging people for more than a few years, what happens when dudes go into a massage therapy studio with the wrong [...]…

Here’s a “very special episode” of the podcast. And by very special, I mean you will be very bored. This is the documentary I tried to make one year into making “Sparkle Picnic”. I filmed a handful of interviews with the cast and crew, and then nothing else. I finally decided to craft it all [...]…

Ok, ok, so I say it’s episode #22 in the opening… it’s actually #23. It’s hard to keep track of these things… Today you get tales of working in a parking garage from Jules, horrifying tales of people being shot for probably no good reason, and a behind-the-scenes of “Sparkle Picnic” story. Dan tells tales of [...]…

I like this episode a lot. I think it’s very potent. Phil tells incredibly sad stories about people he’s known over the years. Then he tells some cute ones, so it ends on a high note. And there’s another journal entry from my freshmen year in college. All in all? Pretty great episode. Want to download episodes [...]…

In this 21ST episode, Jason throws together a hodgepodge episode of goodness. We’re kicking off things with a story from Paul about a drunk with unfortunate luck, Dan tells a phenomenal tale about hanging out at the Hard Times café at 2am, Jason and Dan vanish for 3 hours in the middle of the podcast [...]…

In this 20th episode, Jason gets drunk with Jules and Phil and hears wild tales of almost getting molested, being attacked in bad areas of town (by children???), going to the scary K-Mart, and what happens when you drink tequila in a hot tub (the next day). All that, plus a ton more! Check out [...]…

This is actually the 19th episode of ‘wtfiasp?’, despite what I say in the opening. I recorded this about six months ago and then sat on it for two reasons. Number one, it felt incomplete. It ends abruptly because we run out of battery AND tape. Number two, what was recorded was ended up being [...]…

In this episode, Jason chats with Dan about bums and their missing teeth, aggravating customers, people who throw puppies in the river (”river puppies”) and oodles more as they down PBRs. All that and probably some other shit.   Also be sure to check out the new “Sparkle Picnic” viewer comments voicemail number [...]…

In this episode, Jason and Mr. Joel discuss the untimely death of Ashton Rosengren, Michael Jackson themed parties held by preschools, the awful reality of getting asked for money every time you stand at a bus stop, brothers breaking laws, and the new “Sparkle Picnic” viewer comments voicemail number (which, by the way is: 206-984-0620). [...]…

In the 16th episode, Jason talks to his friend Mik about a bulldog that fucks a couch, horrible jobs, losing confidence doing stand-up, comedy clubs and their hatred of people taping sets, the greatness of “Rosengren Stories pt. 2″, and much much more in wtfiasp 16. Note that this was recorded prior to [...]…

For round two of ROSENGREN STORIES, Ashton covers the following hot topics: Nigerian ravers in the Wisconsin Dells, confusing craigslist ads that may allude to animal sex (or not), mescaline suicide, Ketmine, a local homeless man who has ruined his life to be with an actress and a trio of homeless drunks who are having [...]…

In the 13th episode of ‘WTFIASP?’, Jason and Mik discuss their lonely Thanksgivings, Mik’s stand-up, urinating out of your ass, getting caught humping by parental types, the art of drinking while eating pills, the resulting cascades of vomit, and how to get a one-way ticket to boner town (not really). All that and more on [...]…

In a different take on things, I busted out the video camera to capture a large variety of outlandish, yet true, tales from my friend Ashton. Line up here for ROSENGREN STORIES; tales about tripping on acid while holding a dying puppy, turning down a prostitute who’s willing to suck your dick for a cheeseburger, [...]…

In episode #11 of “What the F’s a Sparkle Picnic?’, Jason chats with Ryan Zerull and Mik Throntveit about celebrity resurrection, terror (pooping in public restrooms), stand-up comedy, SPIDERS VS SNAKES, a hilarious update about a cast member, and how being on the Turkish version of ‘Big Brother’ would rule. All that and much more, [...]…

In episode #10 of “What the F’s a Sparkle Picnic?’, Jason chats with his wife and (in his first podcast) Ben about the “Too Many Cats” craigslist hoax that has netted Jason a variety of angry voicemails and emails. Is Jason going to jail? Has his wife left him? Why does Ben continue to talk [...]…

In episode #9 of “What the F’s a Sparkle Picnic?’, Jason chats with Mik Throntveit, writer of that “Shit On My Shirt” sketch. The two of them take a journey through ye olden days of jumping out windows with bats, having bugs burrow into your head, horrifying yourself while talking to Todd Barry, the hideousness [...]…

In episode #8 of “What the F’s a Sparkle Picnic?’, Jason chats with Jason Sens, a collaborator on the show, about the untimely passing of Billy Mays, Transformers two geing utter garbage, how series three of “Sparkle Picnic” is rolling around, J2, and how to be awesome. All that and much, much more! Want to download [...]…

In episode #7 of “What the F’s a Sparkle Picnic?’, Jason chats with Olive Cats, his longtime fiancee, and former co-star about Michael Jackson’s surprising death, how all the “Sparkle Picnic” boys are really just girls that battle, their weird night drinking on the stoops for Jason’s 27th birthday, and the bums that sleep in [...]…

In episode #6 of “WTF’s a Sparkle Picnic” (’WTFIASP?’) Jason is exhausted and suffering from caffeine overload. With him is Joel Kopplin, who just wrapped the shooting of Ben Herreid’s currently untitled student film. The two shit-heads discuss said film, mighty morphin power rangers and their involvement in murder, the Phil Spector case resolution, working [...]…
