Checked Out Episode 406- #National_____Day and the Racist Oscars
28/01/2016 Duration: 01h23minThe boys are back for more hard-hitting and in-depth discussions and Mario the Millennial is back with his stupid f-ing shock collars. Have you ever noticed that, just about every day in our Facebook or Twitter feed, a handful of jackasses are posting junk with #National_____Day in it? I mean every friggin' day there's somethig else we have to pretend to care about. It's unreal and annoying. Nobody cares about #NationalSquirrelDay. Squirrels are rats with bushy tails. And how about the racist Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences? Man are they racist. Forget the fact that Will Smith stunk to high-Heaven in whatever that forgetful movie was last year. They should have nominated him just so it "looked" more "diverse". Well, the boys get into a discussion that really begs the question: are we a meritocracy or are we a bullshit society that care more about the color of the skin than the content of the character? That's for smarter people to decide. But we are asking it. Music Credits All music by K

Checked Out Episode 405- SHOCKING! Christie's Belly on Winter Storm Jonas and Palin Endorses Trump
24/01/2016 Duration: 01h22minThe shock collars have arrived with all thanks going to Matt for having the great idea to create a wishlist and then come up with a way to, not only, entertain the fans, but, also, discover who the most sadistic fan is. That fan is none other than Superfan Mark. Thanks, Mark for buying the collars for us. And as an added bonus, these collars helped us discover that the real masochist on the show is Jimmy the Italian. There's no rule saying you have to put the shock collar on your balls, James. Oh and, by the way, if you use those things on your dog, you're an asshole. They hurt like a mother We also discuss the hurt we feel that our interview with Kevin MacLeod looks more like an afterthought on his website (www.incompetech.com) than anything he is proud to have done. The sad part is, our interview with him was 20 times more entertaining. But we still love Kevin MacLeod and can't wait to have him on again. This episode was recorded in the hours leading up the whopper of a blizzard known, stupidly, as "Wi

Checked Out Episode 404- A Conversation With Kevin MacLeod and Mario's Millennials
20/01/2016 Duration: 01h27minWe finally got him! After months and months of wishin', hopin' and prayin' that we'd be able to get an interview with the world-famous Kevin MacLeod, the Podcasting gods have smiled upon us...for once. We don't waste any time getting into this interview with our first celebrity. We're not joking when we call him a celebrity. Ok, technically you wouldn't recognize him in a restaurant. You probably never heard his name unless you pay attention when you listen to us or work in production. But you know his music if you've seen the movie "Hugo" or just about most Youtube videos. He has over 1800 credits on IMDB and, most famously, composes and produces all of the music on our show...unless otherwise noted, that is. Not only do we respect him because of his versatility in his compositions, but, most importantly, we respect him because he makes it possible for us to fill our show with countless (well, thousands) of quality songs for every mood and occasion and not break the bank. Hell, he doesn't even require

Checked Out Episode 403- Making A Murderer and EXCLUSIVE Brendan Dassey Interview
18/01/2016 Duration: 01h21minIn this episode we discuss the wildly popular Netflix film, "Making a Murderer", about Steven Avery and his mildly retarded nephew, Brendan Dassey. When that segment is over we have an exclusive interview from the Green Bay Correctional Facility with Brendan. We "reached out" to Steven Avery but he told us he does not do interviews until after he gets his appeal. #MaM #StevenAvery #BrendanDassey #Netflix Music Credits All music by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Relevant Things Amazon Wishlist- http://amzn.com/w/2NTFVYPK7KROV Website- www.checked-out.com Email- CheckedOutRadio@gmail.com Twitter- @CheckedOutRadio, @RealMattJosephs, @ThePeterCornell, @JimmyTheItalian, @Czigmeister Facebook- www.facebook.com/checkedoutradio Sponsors Czig Meister Brewery- www.czigmeister.comTwitter, Instagram- @czigmeister Promotional Consideration The Lodges at Gettysburg www.thelodgesatgettysburg.com (717) 642-2500

Checked Out Episode 401- The Inside Radio Fight, Part 1
09/01/2016 Duration: 01h03minWe're back and fresh as daisies for Season 4 of Checked Out. We've got big plans for this year on the show which might include some changes, but we need your help to do some of it! Listen to find out why. One of those changes requires us to curb our language a bit and structure the show better. Why? Well, we've targeted NJ101.5 and WDHA in New Jersey. Not in a bad way. Rather, we've set our sights on getting ourselves on one of their airwaves. Even if it's at 3am. We're just too good at this to not get paid. Plus we love it and miss taking callers. So how will we curb our language? With self-discipline. And when that doesn't work, Mario the Millennial will shock the cursing cast member with a shock collar. BUT there's a caveat. You have to show us that you want to hear us get shocked. How? By going here and buying one or all three of the shock collars for us. Oh, by the way, we also welcome Mario the Millennial who, in true Millennial fashion, showed up late on his first day on the job. Way to go, sport

Checked Out Shorts- Caitlin Gender's Night Before Christmas
25/12/2015 Duration: 03min'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a Kardashian was stirring, so I ironed my blouse; The Louie Vuitton stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that the ex-wife's money soon would be there; No children were nestled all snug in their beds; While visions of my new bum danced in my head; And mamma, who used to be pappa, in her 'flannels, and I in my teddy, Had just heard an anthem by the great Helen Reddy, When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from my bed to see it was #blacklivesmatter. Then yay through the window the police lights did flash, Their gunshots did stutter and lead balls did smash. The dead on the breast of the artificial snow, Gave a luster of ink stains to objects below, When what to my wondering eyes did appear, But a bunch of trans girls dressed as tiny rein-deer, With chocolate from Godiva so creamy and think, I knew in a moment they're here for this chick. More vapid than valley girls these trans-whores they came, And I whistled
