Ned Prepares for a Freestyle Rap Battle

from The Ned & Josh Podcast

What begins with Ned being caught texting turns into a discussion about knowing your intellectual limits, why conspiracy theories are appealing and the freedom Josh feels when somebody else is responsible for flying the plane. A viral prediction that gravity would stop working brings NASA, floating cars and an argument over anchored houses into the mix, while Josh’s first stretch alone at the office reveals he is considerably less comfortable when responsibility involves answering somebody else’s phone. Ned is now crafting custom Magic: The Gathering accessories and fears his furry bear deck box may have overshot the acceptable level of enthusiasm. Josh is meanwhile drinking raspberry lemonade with all the elegance of a small child, spaghetti mouth becomes an unexpected relationship test, and old memories surface about cordial, soft drink deliveries and protected supplies of Diet Coke. We finish with 8 Mile, Eminem’s performance anxiety, Josh’s professional wrestling experience, the baffling choice of pre-battle spaghetti and a freestyle rap challenge Ned may soon regret discovering.
