[chuck]Still no podcast yet. Yes, we’ve been busy with Halloween stuff, but this month has also been rough for other reasons. Chief among them, my wife is scheduled for surgery tomorrow. So sacrifice a goat, light a candle, and say a bunch of prayers, or just save your energy because none of that will affect the outcome.
Here are a few pictures of the haunt-in-progress to keep you occupied.
The gateway arch is all tarped up until Halloween, but it’ll look real spooky then.

A shot of the haunted hallway from the outside (Leighton has built a structure to protect the hallway from the elements):

We’ve closed off the back area to make a graveyard.

A shot of the inside of the haunted hallway. Not as creepy during the day.

Probably the scariest thing we’ve seen this season (at Home Depot):

One of the two room structures Leighton set up:

Inside, a laboratory:

More creepy stuff inside, and a sarcophagus.



Spiders are always good.


The bigger of the two spiders is controlled by this mechanism:

And driven (along with the haunted hallway) by a huge air compressor.

Finally, this dude is just chillin’ out waiting for you all to come visit.

Chuck and Leighton, good luck with your haunt. I hope all your hard work pays off this weekend. Happy Halloween to all Irreligiosophiles.
…Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn…
Glad things seem to be going well for your wife, and the haunted house looks cool.
But I’m still jonesin’ for more irreligiosophy.
One more idea for the home haunt: cardboard cut out of Glenn Beck. Replace his head with a carved pumpkin with a candle in it. Instant Jack-ass lantern.
Really hope the home haunt is the awesome success it should be. Enjoy the fruits of your labour, and all the best to Mrs. Morrison too. Only one more sleep to Halloween down here!
Re:wheres prop8 Ok that comment was just not cool. Chuck, I hope you banned that inconsiderate troll-pisses me off that we can’t even have an edgy blog/podcast where you can joke with people to the extreme without some asshole going too far. Take your time with the podcast, but take more time to take care of your wife.
Fantastic.
We are just starting with the Halloween festivities in England.
Well, if everythings goes well with your wife, it means my sacrificing animals, spilling their blood and burning the carcasses after much chanting and praying do really work!
So there…you owe me!
In repay for my stealing goats, lambs and bulls, I’ll expect a really funny, thought-provoking and well-researched podcast. Okay, just make it funny.
Best wishes!
Greetings, fuckfaces.
Maybe you guys need some more dicks to suck on, because it seems like you guys have never been to the internet before. If it makes it any better, I’ll kill you too, along with your half-dead wife. So put out the goddamn podcast already.
And please, go ahead and get my IP address again, shitter. I dare you.
Ignore him.
Who are we ignoring? =) http://definitions.uslegal.com/f/fighting-words/
I hope you guys have a rocking haunt tonight!
Jesus fuck, as if I’m not busy enough. I banned the 2 IP addresses for prop 8 (the latest one, 69.162.137.134, traces to a virtual server out of Chicago from Steadfast Networks), and because that probably won’t work for long, I’ll just delete the rest of his comments as soon as they appear.
As for the haunt, we ran it last night (because our LDS community prefers not to trick or treat on Sunday) and it was a huge hit. Lots of small children in tears, and we even got an adult or two to cry. Supposedly, Leighton has video, so we’ll have to comb through the 3 or 4 hours of footage to find the best stuff to post. That might take a while, but we’ll do it.
We’re running it again tonight and tomorrow (more video!), then we’ll take everything down and get back to Irreligiosophy.
Awesome! I have listened to the hole backlog of podcasts. Am ready for some new material. Something on United Pentecostal Church maybe?
Just like Thom, i have listened now to the whole backlog, Fantastic stuff guys!!
The photos look excellent and thanks for sharing.
and in light of recent postings, perhaps a podcast on the similarities between Internet Trolls and the Westboro Baptist Church members.
Anyways, keep up the good work boys, and best wishes to you and your families.
Happy Halloween Everybody! …. Well, everybody but that Prop 8 shitdick.
Hope the haunt went over well. A lot of kids got screwed because our town moved Trick or Treating to 10am – Noon on the 31st so most parents had to choose between church and Trick or Treat…. Seems chuch won, which I’m sure was the purpose of the move. I had had 2 kids come by and I live on one of the main streets. When I was young (Mid-late 80’s) they banned trick or treating outright for years, supposedly so kids wouldn’t get kidnapped and sacrificed by all the secret satanic cluts that didn’t exist, more likely because our town council is dominated by fundies who share Jack Vhick’s belief that Halloween is *ahem* “really” Satan’s birthday.
Cant wait to masterbate to chucks voice again. Listening to the old podcasts is like watching the same porn over and over. It still gets me off but theres nothing like new material.
Happy Halloween!
Fuck, here it is 9:45 p.m. and there have been only two trick or treaters. The must all be at those damed church keep em off the street deals. Man, and after all that time I spent inserting the razor blades in those snickers bars. I wonder if I can freeze them.
ok, so my calendar says that its not october anymore! so where the hell is my podcast? really, I’m curious; what did you do with it? Is your allegiance not to the masses of the irreligiosophical? Have our prophets abandoned us for, say, food or sleep? I will be in utah soon, to nail my 96 (yes, one more!)point thesis to your door, in protest to what is wrong with this religion!!! No More Waiting!!!!
Just wanted to leave the 69th comment – that’s all.
“Something on United Pentecostal Church maybe?”
yes.
must post podcasts! I will post every day until they are up!
That is quite the fan base you have there Chuck and, in case you are paying attention, Leighton. No wonder you feel the need to have “Fuck You Fans Month”.
Very cool stuff guys… I miss doing haunts! Thanks for posting the pics, so I can live vicariously through you guys…
Happy All Hallows Eve
>=F :O=>
^vampyre and victim š
Chuck, from me in Queensland, Australia, I seriously hope that surgery goes well and that all returns to normal with your family life shortly.
You and Leighton are living treasures, and your podcasts are priceless.
I listen to about 35 different podcasts as I build my planes, but yours and Skeptics Guide to the Universe are the ones I wait for.
cheers
GeoffR
More! come on, please, I don’t have the attention span to actually keep coming here each day to post! this is two kinds of torture now!!!
Hi there,
Thereās a nice banned Mormon cartoon on the Godless Business website. Just google for ākalam is krapā. Itās hilarious.
Take care.
Just so you know, I refuse to empty my bowels until you guys put up another podcast. (I considered a hunger strike, but decided that more drastic measures are called for).
I’m new to you guys but my conversion is complete already.
I’ve obviously not been party to the ‘Prop 8’ situtation but seeing his/ her recent post here suggests that this person is very special indeed. Wish I could hear your pods about Prop 8 but reading between the lines I think I understand what is going on.
Chuck – sending good wishes for your wife’s surgery and I have plenty of backcat podcasts to keep me going for a while š
COME ON ALREADY! COME ON! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! NO MORE WAITING!
If you can“t get your shit together, why don“t you just forget prop 8 all together and make a podcast about something else?
This response list is getting to be fun. Why don’t you guys just take the rest of the year off.
Miss you guys!
I am tired of sitting in my own waste, constantly refreshing this page. If you guys don’t release a podcast soon, I may have to shower and/or go outside!
How is it that Chuck is the one that had a loved one in the hospital yet he’s still the one responsible for all the updates? What does Leighton do with his time, is he at moron tabernacle choir practice?
Ok, it’s been 50 days since we’ve had anything new (not made by a listener). I give up hoping for something new.
I hope this lack of updates is just attributable to the guys general slackness and not from anything horrible happening to either of them or their family. You guys have me worried!
I really enjoy reading these posts begging for a new podcast. I cast my vote in favor of the two of you taking the remainder of the year off. You deserve it. Or you could trash the podcast altogether and leave us begging for more. Better yet, start a new podcast with an even more obscure name.
Quit bitching and just get us another podcast. Dont make me come on there and talk about my 10 years as a seventh day adventisit!
More Post!!!
