Episodes

  1. #86: Zany Ding Dong Stories (Or Boobie Eskimo Brothers)

    And they're back. Back in the House of Mirrors, where the conversation begins with a serious analysis of how Godwin's Law applies to Permission to Podcast. The gang naturally progresses from there to Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon Separation and of course, Game of Thrones, which leads to the question...

  2. #85: I Eat Salads! (Or NO, Let Us Buy YOU a Drink)

    The Gang is back and broadcasting from the Cave of Thrones. The conversation starts with Gil's account of his showdown at a local burger joint, Bohemian Rhapsody and A Star is Born are re-reviewd, and Belia relates her adventures on a cruise to Mexico. The evening wraps up with another Marco…

  3. #84: The Whores from Back Home (Or Hate Crime? I Need Proof)

    For the second week in a row, the gang is back, this week joined by the always elusive Sicilian Mushroom. The show starts with a shout out to their sponsor Marco in the form of a story about his exploits. From there they launch right into the current hot topic R. Kelly. Of course this leads to a...

  4. #83: Anybody Want a Cigarette? (Or The Halo Jump Badge)

    The Permission to Podcast gang is back. Returning to the House of Mirrors, they cover such topics as Marco's Boy Scout days, the current state of emergency, and the sad revelation that one of them has a closet smoking habit. They even get a surprise call from a familiar voice to weigh in.

  5. #82: We're Doing This for Marco (or Not Tylenol - Titties)

    After two months since the last episode, the gang reunites at The House of Mirrors, where gifts are shared along with a new commercial and mammaries of Vegas. Talk soon turns from plans for a spring trip to current events and finally the recent mid- term elections, where we quickly learn that…

    more
  6. #81: The Great Elevator Debate (or A Cute Phychosis)

    The Core Four were down to three, now they're down to two as Gil has decided to become a Friend of the Pod. Tonight, the Core Two are down to one as Al decided to stay home (maybe because, like the drummer from Def Leppar, he only has one arm). So, Ron was joined by Gil and Belia at his house...

  7. #80: The 2nd Annual Permy Awards

    It's the 2nd Annual Permy Awards!!! And the nominees are... Best Guest Soundbite: Alicia – “White male heteronormative” BDR – “Rufi someone and then jizz on their chest” Tucson Steve - “1000 downloads how bout dat” Stephanie – "Sorry about the rape thing” Tucson Steve – “This just in… get off the...

  8. #79: Everybody Thinks We're Lesbians (or Do You Know About Pi?)

    With Al out of town, Gil and Ron take the show on the road and podcast from Final Round, joined by Belia and Steph.

    Ron and Gil meet up with Belia and Stephanie (referred to as Stelia going forward) at the house of mirrors.

  10. #77: Old as F?#k Place (or The Betty Page Continuum)

    Once again in The Cave of Thrones the Core Three welcome Belia and very special guest and notorious White Whale Palermo. The show begins with a discussion of Palermo's love of Betty Page, but then jumps quickly to his views on the detainment issue south of the border, the continuing soap opera…

    more
  11. #76: The Macaroni and Cheese Trail (or "What's the G Word")

    Once again, the Core Three are at the Cave of Thrones, discussing why they didn't podcast last week. In a word: drunk. In five words: drunk at The Iron Maidens. From here the talk turns to kids in cages, which then degenerates into a disagreement over whether the US should be in the business of...

  12. #75: #MeToo-D2

    The core group is back in the cave of thrones. We start the show discussing the recent Supreme Court ruling regarding a religious baker not wanting to bake a wedding cake for a gay couple. This leads us to a discussion about the "No Shirt No Shoes No Service". We then discuss President Trump...

  13. #74: Uberdope (Or My Mom's Not a Racist Per Se...)

    The Core Three are back in action and in The Cave of Thrones. After two weeks the gang has plenty to talk about. Starting with the obvious Rosanne debacle they move on to legalized gambling, Donald Trump news, Gil's new business idea that turns out not to be all that new, and Donald Rump news.…

    more
  14. #73: RIP Mini Me (or Who's Your Daddy...Redd Foxx?)

    The Core Three broadcast from The Cave of Thrones this week, where Gil and Belia tell of their mother's sketchy birthday dinner before the conversation turns to the Correspondence Dinner Controversy, the untimely death of Vern Troyer, and another tale of Kanye West's mouth run amok. They follow...

  15. #72: Beverly the Flatulent (or Anybody Want a Peanut?)

    The Core Three kick off this week's episode at The House of Mirrors with another rumination on the lurking fear and seeming danger of AZ Mills Mall then jump right into Round 3 of the Red for Ed debate.

  16. #71: Thank God It's 420 (or Fixing a Hole)

    This week the Core Three are back in a newly remodeled (For the better?) Cave of Thrones. With it being 4/20 the boys and Belia jump right in to the meaning of "420" and the new bill introduced to legalize MJ on a Federal Level. The four then jump into a discussion about the newly thawed Korean...

  17. #70: Red for Ed (or If You Remember, Molly...)

    Gil and Ron are back at Belia's, but without Al as he had birthday obligations. In a twist, Gil takes a seat in the Guest Chair this week. Thankfully he came with an agenda: Phoenix Suns basketball, the return of Roseanne, and the fallacy of Facebook privacy. The gang then explores the Red for Ed...

  18. #69: Uber Judgement Day (or Happy Anniversary)

    The Core Three are back, this time recording at The Funhouse with Belia. E-Steve calls in, not to revoke permission, but to grant it, and in the process gives a shout out to his wife of 16 years and explains how the Chicken Dance ultimately led to Gil, Al, and Belia moving to the Phoenix area.…

    more
  19. #68: Clean Up On Aisle 3 (or How To Get Ripped Off While Investing In Yourself)

We then jump into a review of the recent movie "Black Panther" and ponder whether race played a part in the rapidity of the making of the movie and its...

  20. #67: The Belia Dip (or Don't Believe Me? Just Watch...)

    And then there were two. With Gil on sabbatical and a podcast world full of haters, with the help of Belia and Red, Al and Ron fight the power and podcast anyway. The show starts right off with Belia's terrifying tale of a blind date gone wrong. Red shares her troubles just making it to The Cave…

    more

    more
  22. #65: The Long Goodbye (or Health Care for Everyone!)

    The Core Three are back in The Cave this week where Gil announces that The Core will now drop to two, as he's leaving the show. Sort of. Disgusted at the quality of the editing, Gil decides he will not be on the show unless he's going to edit it. Belia joins the boys in The Cave and Marco calls…

    more
  23. #63: Big Brother (or How Someone Can Get Nick Nolte'd)

    The group is back, with a call-in from Ron, and with two guests: Tucson Steve and White-Whale Steve. We start the show discussing our recent Christmas experiences.

    This week the core three sit down once again at Belia's, this time joined by Belia's friend Steph. The show starts with Gil explaining the rules of podcasting, which apparently, are almost the same as the rules of Fight Club. The talk then turns to porn suicides, #metoo, and of course sexual...

  26. #60: What Would You Do for a Promotion (or Cam I Borrow Your Truck...and Credit Card)?

    This week Red joins the core three for an in depth discussion about sexual harassment that's given permission right out of the gate. Matt Lauer, double standards, and workplace advancements dominate the harassment conversation for most of the show, until Al takes a pause to give Marco a birthday...

  27. #59: Workplace Etiquette (or How to Say Hello Without Being Accused of Sexual Harassment)

    This week Albert and Gil begin the show while waiting for Belia to arrive. We start discussing the newest sexual harassment revelations this week. We then talk about the new season of Walking Dead and why is it going to take 18 months until the final season of Game of Thrones airs. We then…

    (Gil-Edited Podcast Special) The core 3 are back plus guest of the pod, Belia. This week, we do something different and podcast from the backyard.

  30. #55: Whose House? (Or The Eye of the Beholder)

    With Al unavailable, Gil and Ron journey to Belia's house to podcast. The show starts with the guys' ongoing debate about how soon the episodes should be published. In the course of the debate, the show receives not one but two "surprise" call in guests to weigh in on the subject. Topics then…

    more
  31. #54: The Guerilla Podcast (Or Is It a Mouse If It's In the House?)

    While attending a house party at Al's, Gil and Ron sneak into The Cave of Thrones to record a podcast. Joining them is fourth time guest, zero time listener Belia.

  32. #53: Why Can't We Be Friends? (or Marco Takes a Knee for Colin Pumpernickel)

    This week's episode begins with Gil espousing the merits of Bob Dylan, "the voice of his generation", which immediately leads to a debate about: the veracity of that particular moniker, Dylan's role as an artist (musician, poet, or drug induced nonsense maker), and why he isn't protesting now.…

    more

  35. #50: Lactation is Our Motiviation (Or You Ain't Stayin' in MY Crib)

    Landmark Episode 50 comes and goes without so much as a mention. Permission isn't even asked for this week as the podcast kicks off with a returning guest, a new guest, and a returning regular. Belia returns to the podcast to ask the age old, often asked "What is this podcast about?" and doesn't...

  36. #49: Winter is Coming (Or The Time Sarah Jessica Parker Was Warged by an Idiot)

    The podcast is dark and full of terrors as the tres caballeros delve deep into Game of Thrones. The conversation starts with a discussion of the typcasting of James Earl Jones and quickly devolves into a discussion riddled with theories, conjecture, and Ron Jeremy. We learn what's really going on...

  37. #48: Permission Granted Again (or How We Were Cuckheld in Guam)

    After serious debate on whether or not to continue with a missing member, after an outpouring of accolades from rabid fans, and after the heartfelt on-line plea of one our guests, the three original members are back in the saddle again. The Rooster ("Red" if you're nasty) fills the vacant seat,...

    The core four are back but for the last time? We discuss the future of the podcast throughout this podcast. We do have a guest named "Red" who joined us this week.

  45. #40: 1000 Downloads

    The core four are back in the studio once again! We begin by talking a little dead pool but, unfortunately, no one has died yet. We move on to talking Trump and other news stories going on.
