This week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Matt "Space Ghost" Dykes, and Graham "Hoppity Hooper" Mason discuss the super awesome season six episode that ranks up there among the best of the season.

October 21, 2019 12:00 - 34 minutes - 32 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Matt "Scooby-Doo" Dykes, and Graham "The Jetsons" Mason talk "Tanks for Nuthin'." That's right!

6.04: Rapacity in Blue
October 14, 2019 12:00 - 33 minutes - 31 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Chewie "The Yogi Bear Show" Darsow, and Matt "The Pink Panther" Dykes talk "Rapacity in Blue," the mid-season episode of season six with all the problems mentioned last week with its serialized storytelling. Lot of details to juggle and sometimes it gets fuzzy what happens where and when. But hey, we get more Blue Morpho so that's awesome! INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
6.03: Faking Miracles
October 08, 2019 03:27 - 35 minutes - 32.5 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "Scooby Doo, Where Are You" Friedemann, and Matt "The Jetsons" Dykes talk "Faking Miracles" and get into some legit Blue Morpho shit. Yeah! Well, kinda. He's there. He's mentioned. We see him. We see the Morpho mobile. It's a great episode and you won't want to miss it. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
6.02: Maybe No Go
September 30, 2019 15:17 - 28 minutes - 26.3 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "The Flintstones" Friedemann, and Matt "Adam Ant" Dykes talk the next episode of season six - "Maybe No Go" - and discuss how the season as a whole has shifted its format to be more serialized and as such, makes it harder to remember everything that happens in any given episode. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
6.01: Hostile Makeover
September 23, 2019 12:00 - 39 minutes - 35.9 MBThis week on the Venture Bros podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "Wacky Races" Friedemann, and Matt "Johnny Quest" Dykes talk about the season six opener "Hostile Makeover," which starts rather abruptly. Turns out there's a "Special Epilogue" that connects this to "Gargantua-2" that's absolutely hilarious. Go check it out and then come back. We'll wait. Oh, you want the link? Here. https://youtu.be/pDRIMO7AL8U Awesome, right? Too bad more TV shows don't adopt this method of teasing future seasons...
6.00: All This and Gargantua-2
September 16, 2019 12:00 - 44 minutes - 41.1 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "Top Cat" Friedemann, and Matt "Underdog" Dykes jump right into Season Six with "All This And Gargantua 2" - the episode that many a fan consider to be the best of the series.

September 09, 2019 12:00 - 38 minutes - 34.8 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "Air" Friedemann, and Matt "Purple People Eaters" Dykes talk the last episode of season five: The Devil's Grip. They then decide on their favorite characters and episodes from the season and once again help Matt with a sports reference. You won't want to miss this one. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday

But first, Bryan and Nick attempt to explain the XFL to Matt. It's a jam-packed episode before we even get to the episode. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
5.06: Momma's Boys
August 26, 2019 14:58 - 29 minutes - 26.6 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "Shoeless" Friedemann, and Matt "Sweetness" Dykes talk Momma's Boys, a high point for the season featuring prime Venture Bros dialog.

5.04: Spanakopita! (3rd Time's The Charm!)
August 12, 2019 13:56 - 34 minutes - 31.3 MBFINALLY! HI! Welcome to the third time this thing has been recorded. Bryan Dressel, Nick Friedemann, Matt Dykes dive into the very cursed episode of Spanakopita and talk about whether or not it holds up on the third viewing in a row. Lot of good stuff here, and not a single computer crash so yay! INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
Sam Wise: Ep. 26 - Balrog In Space
August 05, 2019 15:08 - 12 minutes - 11.6 MBDue to technical difficulties YET AGAIN, Spanakopita isn't happening this week. In the meantime, we wanted to share another podcast that's on our network that we think you should check out. It's called Sam Wise and it's an advice podcast that uses the Lord of the Rings: Extended Editions to answer any and all questions in life. Host Samantha Garrison expertly uses the holy texts of Peter Jackson to solve all of your problems, and we mean ALL OF THEM. Enjoy and we'll work to get Spanakopita t...

July 29, 2019 12:00 - 34 minutes - 31.8 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel and Nick "Slugabed" Friedemann have lost a co-host and gained another. Matt "Cad" Dykes joins the party while Graham is away. Together, they talk about the next episode of season five: SPHINX Rising. A fun episode, but not without some tension between SPHINX plot and the Monarch plot. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday

5.02: Venture Libre
July 16, 2019 04:51 - 27 minutes - 25 MBINTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
5.01: What Color Is Your Cleansuit?
July 08, 2019 12:00 - 35 minutes - 32.1 MBINTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
5.00: Ladle to the Grave, Very Venture Halloween
July 01, 2019 14:48 - 36 minutes - 33.7 MBINTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.16: Operation: P.R.O.M.
June 24, 2019 12:00 - 49 minutes - 45.6 MBINTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.15: The Silent Partners
June 17, 2019 12:00 - 35 minutes - 32.4 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Graham "The Question" Mason, and Nick "Namor" (He said "Aquaman, but angrier" twice) Friedemann talk about the penultimate episode of the season, which is more lore-heavy than laugh-out-loud funny. Still, a very fun episode that pays off on rewatch. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.14: Assisted Suicide
June 10, 2019 13:00 - 32 minutes - 30.3 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Graham "Superman" Mason, and Nick "The Huntress" Friedemann talk Assisted Suicide, which is the name of the next episode of the show and not the actual topic of discussion. Ahh, jokes. It's like the show gave us a grande in a venti cup but filled it up just a little bit more. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.13: Bright Lights, Dean City
June 04, 2019 05:30 - 36 minutes - 33.7 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "Superman" Friedemann, and Matt "Manchester Black" Dykes talk "Bright Lights, Dean City" the brother episode to last week's episode. Short review: Bryan is not a huge fan of it. He just "likes it" like Nick "liked" last week's episode. At least there are some great recurring gags to make things better. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.12: Everybody Comes To Hank's
May 27, 2019 13:00 - 35 minutes - 32.5 MBThis week on the show Bryan Dressel, Nick "Starman" Friedemann, and Matt "Constantine" Dykes talk one of Graham's favorite episodes, which is unfortunate timing as Graham couldn't make it. Darn those jobs! Anyway, this is probably one of the best episodes of the season, or at least a decent episode if you're Nick. Darn that hat! INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.11: Any Which Way But Zeus
May 20, 2019 13:00 - 38 minutes - 35 MBThis week on the show Bryan Dressel, Nick "Superboy" Friedemann, and Graham "Merc" Mason discuss this strangely forgettable episode that worked in some areas but not others. It's certainly a weird one, carrying over elements from last week's episode but still being very much a monster of the week. Your mileage will vary. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4:10: Pomp & Circuitry
May 13, 2019 15:10 - 32 minutes - 30.1 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "I'm A Fucking Asshole" Friedemann, and Graham "Sue Storm" Mason talk Pomp & Circuitry, the episode that heralds in the great back half of the season. Come for the Ventures, stay for the co-hosts driving Bryan bonkers with their exquisite comic book knowledge. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.09: The Diving Bell Vs. The Butter-Glider
May 06, 2019 13:00 - 28 minutes - 26.2 MBThis week Bryan Dressel, Nick "Batman" Friedemann, and Graham "Mr. Terrific" Mason get into the back-half of the season with an episode that's got some problems. But hey, it's got a Conjecture Cycle...so yay? INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.08: Pinstripes & Poltergeists
April 29, 2019 13:00 - 36 minutes - 33.7 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "Dr. Manhattan" Friedemann, and Graham "Silk Spectre 2" Mason discuss the next episode of season four, which has some great moments but also feels like "we want to be done with the front half of this season." INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.07: The Better Man
April 22, 2019 13:00 - 35 minutes - 32.3 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "The Read Death" Friedemann, and Graham "Harley Quinn" Mason talk The Better Man, a super fun (and for some people forgettable but still very fun) Orpheus-centric episode. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.06: Self-Medication
April 15, 2019 13:00 - 33 minutes - 31 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "Clayface" Friedemann, and Graham "The Whizzer" Mason do a little "Self-Medication;" or rather, they talk about the episode called "Self-Medication." It's a solid middle-of-the-road episode, unless you're Graham, in which case it's not anything special. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.05: The Revenge Society
April 08, 2019 13:45 - 42 minutes - 39.5 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "The Hulk" Friedemann, and Graham "Artemis" Mason talk The Revenge Society, one of Bryan's favorite episodes of the show and his favorite of the season. It features a certain two-headed quote machine that is an absolute delight. Catch this pod as soon as you can! INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.04: Return to Malice
April 01, 2019 13:00 - 35 minutes - 32.6 MBThis week on the show Bryan Dressel, Nick "Wally West's The Flash" Friedemann, and Graham "Tim Drake's Robin" Mason talk Return to Malice, a fun episode with a lot of moving parts. There's the re-imagined 21 in search of 24's killer, Monarch's anaphylactic face troubles, Sgt. Hatred's inability to prevent the boys from getting kidnapped and witnessing Princess Tinyfeet in S&M play with Private Schwa, and Dr. Venture reminiscing with Dr. Mrs. the Monarch about the inhabitants of Malice. A lot...
4.03: Perchance to Dean
March 25, 2019 13:00 - 34 minutes - 32 MBThis week on the episode Bryan Dressel, Nick "Nightwing" Friedemann, and Graham "Nebula" Mason talk about the "most hated" episode of season four and why it just doesn't click like the others. There's continuity in that they use characters from the show, but it just doesn't really fit. You know, like a Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror episode. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
4.02: Handsome Ransom
March 18, 2019 13:00 - 37 minutes - 34.5 MBThis week on the glorious Venture Bros: A Venture Brothers Podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "The Penguin" Friedemann, and Graham "Stargirl" Mason talk about HANDSOME RANSOM!! We're introduced to Captain Sunshine and his arc with Hank, which in true Venture Bros fashion approaches that "offensive" line, and does a little jig on it. A very fun episode whose A-story and B-story don't mesh nearly as well as they should. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH C...
4.01: Blood of the Father, Heart of Steel
March 11, 2019 15:00 - 42 minutes - 39 MB"It's time to jump the shark" with this week's episode of Venture Bros. Bryan Dressel, Nicholas "Catwoman" Friedemann, Graham "Red Hood and the Outlaws" Mason, and Matt "Hellblazer" Dykes bring in the super nuts season four premiere. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
3.12-13: The Family That Slays Together, Stays Together
March 04, 2019 14:00 - 1 hour - 61.8 MBHi! You've reached the two-part finale of Venture Bros Season Three: The Family That Slays Together, Stays Together. And what a ride it has been! Bryan Dressel is joined on this jam-packed, extra long episode by Nicholas "Ackee" Friedemann, Graham "Mangosteen" Mason, and Matt "Miracle Fruit" Dykes. Stay tuned to the very end of the episode for a special appearance from Brok Holliday, who takes us through his thoughts on the finale as well. A great episode, but "yer not gonna like looking for...
3.11: ORB
February 25, 2019 16:00 - 35 minutes - 32.9 MBThis week Bryan Dressel, Nick "Guava" Friedemann, and Graham "Kumquat" Mason, delve into the mysteries of the ORB. What does it do? What is it capable of? Nobody knows. Lots of lore abound in this penultimate episode of the season. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
3.10: The Lepidopterists
February 18, 2019 15:45 - 28 minutes - 26.6 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nicholas "pine fruit" Friedemann, and Mr. Graham "Strawberry" Mason talk about The Lepidopterists, the title of which is tougher to say than you might imagine. It's also weirdly placed within the season given Tears of a Sea Cow and Now Museum - Now You Don't. Still a super fun episode! INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
3.09: Now Museum – Now You Don't!
February 11, 2019 16:00 - 36 minutes - 33.3 MBThis week on Venture Bros Bryan Dressel, Nick "A Whole Bushel of Grapes" Friedemann, and Graham "Raspberry" Mason talk about "Now Museum – Now You Don't!" a fun little episode jammed in the middle of a two-parter. Kind of comes out of the blue, but it's still a fun episode. Note: there's some issues with one of the mics in this episode, so apologies in advance. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
3.08: Tears of a Sea Cow
February 04, 2019 16:00 - 34 minutes - 31.7 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "Apricot" Friedemann, and Graham "Plum" Mason talk about Tears of a Sea Cow, which starts out strong but kind of falters at the end. At least it's stronger than the previous two episodes. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
3.07: What Goes Down, Must Come Up
January 28, 2019 16:00 - 32 minutes - 30 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Graham "Orange" Mason, and Nick "Peach" Friedemann talk about rockets full of poo, and about how "Firestarter" looks and sounds like Nick. That's right, they're talking about What Goes Down, Must Come Up. INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
3.06: Dr. Quymn, Medicine Woman
January 21, 2019 16:00 - 29 minutes - 27.2 MBThis week on the show Bryan Dressel, Graham "Pineapple" Mason, and Nicholas "Starfruit" Friedemann enter the lull of season three, which continues next week as well. There's some funny stuff to be had in this evergreen episode, but coming off of some really strong episodes it's a bit of a letdown. Ayyy! Enjoy! INTRO MUSIC COURTESY Bradley David Parsons inspired by JG Thrilwell RESEARCH COURTESY Brok Holliday
3.05: The Buddy System
January 14, 2019 16:00 - 37 minutes - 34.6 MBThis week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Graham "Cantaloupe" Mason, and Nick "Watermelon" Friedemann talk about The Buddy System, Bryan's favorite episode of the series.
