'Cabin Fever'

Cabin Fever #57: Widge Is Of Madison County

Posted Wednesday, February 18th, 2009 at 13:14pm

Brian couldn’t pull himself from the brink of death in time this week to record the best darn podcast fake money can buy, so Aaron recruits internet entrepreneur and man-about-town Widgett Walls to add a certain level of class and random knowledge to the proceedings. Topics of getting TV wrong, 12-year-old fathers, and kissing bans are all broached with gusto, and Aaron actually remembers to include the song at the end of the show this week, too! So thanks to yaG Backwards for their patience…

Cabin Fever #56: A Taste Of The Orient

Posted Thursday, February 12th, 2009 at 3:53am

The Cabin boys are joined by their loyal friends Shona and Bruce to help with a large and intimidating taste test of Chinese and Thai “delights”. They announce the details of their video competition (or, at least, they tell you where you can get them), and once again they have to apologise for the crappy sound. It’s becoming a habit…

Cabin Fever #55: Therapy?

Posted Wednesday, February 4th, 2009 at 1:47am

Our Cabin Dwellers grow more and more frustrated with their shoddy equipment and are forced to record under less than stellar circumstances. The stress and strain of the situation makes Aaron break down and spill about his first fight, his schoolboy crushes, and his mood swings, all under the watchful eye of Dr. Phit. Music is provided by Fake Like Me…

Cabin Fever #54: Fever Snyde - Part 1

Posted Wednesday, January 28th, 2009 at 3:33am

Worlds collide! Through the use of miraculous technology, the Cabin Fever duo of Brian and Aaron round a cyber-corner and come face-to-face with Ken Plume and Dana Snyder of Snydecast fame. What will happen? What won’t?!?! This is Part 1. Check for Part 2 in the Ken P. D. Snyde-Cast #80…

Cabin Fever #53: Ukulelove

Posted Thursday, January 15th, 2009 at 3:28am

The Cabin boys continue to uphold their new year’s resolution of being on time, despite more technical follies. Book-ended with the worst/best musical attempts you’ve ever heard (delete as appropriate), the boys talk about animal madness, cultural ignorance, and beg once again for you to love them. We apologize now for Aaron’s singing…

Cabin Fever #52: If At First You Don’t Succeed

Posted Thursday, January 8th, 2009 at 3:14am

Our Cabin dwellers round off their fireside chat trilogy in the worst way possible - by losing the first hour of the show to technical douchebaggery. Profanities are uttered and walls are punched, but eventually the duo muster up the bother to re-record the episode, to varying degrees of success…

Cabin Fever #51: Ho, Ho, Hoes For Publicity

Posted Wednesday, December 24th, 2008 at 19:12pm

Our duo get all festive in the second of their “fireside chat” trilogy. They discuss presents, Christmas sessions, Brian’s favourite Bond movie, animal porn, and more crap than you can shake a candy cane at. Happy Christmas, y’all!

Cabin Fever #50: The Golden Shower

Posted Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008 at 15:39pm

Aaron and Brian are joined by a plethora of guest stars in this, the 50th episode of The Worst Podcast In Existence. The usual nonsense is discussed, and we learn of Shona’s secret hatred for the listeners…

Cabin Fever #49: Rancid Toast and Other Mexican Delights

Posted Wednesday, December 17th, 2008 at 19:17pm

Taste test ahoy! The Fever spreads south of the border! This week our cabin dwellers get their monkeys out to help them rate an array of delightful snacks direct from the land of tequila. Everything from cakes to lollipops, corn chips to cookies, all flavoured with limes, chillies and salt. Yummy!

Cabin Fever #48: Sex, Ramps & Videotape

Posted Thursday, December 4th, 2008 at 1:56am

After a week’s hiatus, The Fever returns with a bumper installment, minus Texas-bound Aaron. Brian, Shona and Bruce attempt to make do with tales of ramps, sticks, and flashlight sex aids. Also, the trio try to get to the bottom of Prison Break’s all-encompassing crapness…

Cabin Fever #47: Poole PI

Posted Thursday, November 20th, 2008 at 19:39pm

Our dynamic duo are reunited and celebrate in typical fashion. They discuss Aaron’s charity moustache cultivation, overzealous trick-or-treat security, the Dawn Of The Dead remake’s possible superiority over the original, plus a plethora of other banal subjects too lame to print here. Music is provided once again by The Chinaski Effect…

Cabin Fever #46: One Good Scare

Posted Thursday, November 13th, 2008 at 17:45pm

Our cabin crew, minus recently mustachioed sexy man Aaron Poole, celebrate Halloween with some chat about Russell Brand’s recent troubles, Andie MacDowell’s bad acting, and the best way to terrify Shona during Samhain…

Cabin Fever #45: Scotch Mist

Posted Thursday, October 23rd, 2008 at 3:07am

Our dynamic duo are once again joined by everyone’s favourite Irish lass, and together they tackle and taste test some traditional Scottish treats. Ireland’s recent political turmoil also gets a mention, plus there’s some musical goodies from the cabin crew themselves. Additional music is provided by 1,000 Hours…

Cabin Fever #44: The Sho Show

Posted Wednesday, October 15th, 2008 at 3:09am

Our cabin-girl Shona returns from the wilderness to add some quantity to the proceedings, but not necessarily any quality. This leads to talk of what not to do when urinating, some line treading on the subjects of our gay listeners, and Top 5 prospective lovers. Jonathan Coulton plays the team out, and for the second week in a row a 60 second review arrives on time. There is too much going on in this show these days…

Cabin Fever #43: Aaron Gets Fired

Posted Wednesday, October 8th, 2008 at 20:56pm

This week the boys talk pythons fighting alligators, have special guests, flame-throw the in-laws, and give a quick re-cap of the fantasy league for all the folks involved. The 60 Second Music Review actually shows up this week, and Zolof The Rock And Roll Destroyer plays the show out. Warning: This podcast contains dramatic scenes and use of the C-word even more than normal. We advise that you gather the kids ’round for a tale before bed-time…

Cabin Fever #42: Insert Douglas Adams Joke Here

Posted Wednesday, October 1st, 2008 at 23:09pm

It’s been a long day for the boys. Hectic schedules equal low energy reserves. However, it doesn’t diminish the odd conversation. We have a welcome return of the “You Put What Where?” section, talk of fake appendages, and then engage in a rather embarrassing attempt to make sense of an air-pump/rectum incident…

Cabin Fever #41: Phone Fun

Posted Wednesday, September 24th, 2008 at 4:23am

The boys have an adventure with technology and call rock star Blake Rawlings about future endeavors, turn the show into and audioVISUAL piece, and also manage to fit in ramblings about sky-sex, Jamie-Lynn Spears, and Galaxy Hitchhiking. Music from Joe Doyle…

Cabin Fever #40: Back To The Grind

Posted Wednesday, September 17th, 2008 at 20:43pm

The Cabin Boys are back to business as usual this week. No more crappy sound and drunken Snyders, instead we have talk of the fantasy premier league, Russell Brand, and a lady named Soiled Susie. We have “commercial breaks” provided by Paul and Storm, and playing the team out is House Of Large Sizes. 40 podcasts! Insanity…

Cabin Fever #39: Allskate

Posted Friday, September 12th, 2008 at 4:38am

pHitzy has returned to Jay Edwards’s loft in an attempt to rescue his friend Aaron Poole from the clutches of the vile gangster Dana the Snyde. Joining in on the proceedings are friends of the show Jeff Defalque, Ashley Zelzter, and - of course - Mr. Jay Wade Edwards…

Cabin Fever #38: Episode V - The Snyder Strikes Back

Posted Friday, September 5th, 2008 at 5:27am

It is a dark time for Cabin Fever. Although Ken and pHitzy have recorded a perfectly good show, the two rejects Dana and Aaron, in an attempt to stay relevant, spew rubbish for an hour. Many subjects are raised in an effort to hide their sense of rejection, but ultimately they fail…

Cabin Fever #37: P-p-p-pick Up A Podcast

Posted Thursday, August 28th, 2008 at 3:18am

The guys record this week’s episode while “on a plane” (wink) on their way to DragonCon (wink wink). Recording in transit proves to be no problem for them, and they amuse themselves with talk of penguins (both the knighted and edible kind), Ravi Shankar’s family ties, Zac’s big news, and they also find time to reminisce about their angst-filled college days. All this and more before they even munch their in-flight peanuts (wink wink wink).

Cabin Fever #36: You All Everybody

Posted Friday, August 22nd, 2008 at 2:13am

What do you get when you mix cough medicine, red bull cola, and cold Burger King? You get this week’s mess of an episode, recorded live and in colour from pHitzy’s basement. Many things are mulled over, including Jade Goody’s cancer, the steward of Gondor’s eating habits and LOST’s missing mancunian. Music is by the apparently awful Funky Junkies…

Cabin Fever #35: Olympics and Bourbons and Rain, Oh My!

Posted Thursday, August 14th, 2008 at 2:00am

This week the lads come totally unprepared, even forgetting to plug in their mics for the first ten minutes of recording. A trip to the thrift shop supplies them with cheap but tasty biscuits to munch throughout, serving as perfect fuel for discussions on the Beijing Olympics, folks’ fear of spiders, beer cans from around the world, Aaron’s growing Russophobia, the sad loss of two legends in two days, and the imminent return of the Premier League. Due to popular demand, music is provided throughout by The Vinny Club…

Cabin Fever #34: Holy Spoilerific Podcast, Batman!

Posted Thursday, August 7th, 2008 at 1:36am

Everyone’s least favourite podcast returns yet again, same Fever time, same Fever channel. Due to popular demand, our cabin dwellers discuss their somewhat jumbled impressions of THE DARK KNIGHT, which seriously eats into their bulls— time. Still, they manage to squeeze in talk of caffeinated food stuffs, Brian’s unhealthy desire to meet Hayden Panettiere at DragonCon, cursed X-Box 360 games, Macaulay Culkin’s “Oh” face, plus they throw in an update on one of their stories from yestercast. For those who still have not seen Chris Nolan’s latest offering, and want to remain in the dark (knight) about the plot, the spoilers start/end times are approx 18:00 and 44:15. Avoid that chunk of awesomesauce and you’ll be good to go. This week’s musical treats come from The Vinny Club and The Teddyboys…

Cabin Fever #33: Turty Tree and a Turd

Posted Wednesday, July 30th, 2008 at 23:01pm

This week the lads get perplexed by a man’s sexual habits, get shocked by what two girls do with their Wii, and get a little spoiler happy with the new X-FILES movie. There is music from Moth Complex and, as always, plenty of things you won’t want your kid to listen to. Disgusted? So are we…
