The show is down two hosts because they have escaped on vacation. Matt, friend (and frequent guest) of the show, have dug up a movie from the 1990s that provides a great look at today's social media (and college) culture! Come for the jokes about the Olympics, stay for the discussion on causeheads and merkins.

We can't even describe how excited we are to be able to use "poop" in the episode title two weeks in a row. Almost as happy as America's Mayor in drag. Or Kanye living at the Mercedes Benz Stadium. We also chat about other things on the show. Like the movie Abduction and Ryan's new gig as a booker and manager.

Episode 123: Flinging poop on Tinder dates

July 17th, 2021  |  59 mins 35 secs

Chris returns to the podcast fully loaded with thoughts and criticism about Thomas and Ryan flying solo in the previous episode. The boys have tons of billion dollar ideas for inventions, Ryan has signed up for a mystery box, and Chris is watching Bosch.

We brought three members of the Megathread on the show to give us some of their rankings. What is the best state in the union? The answer might surprise you. Which Disney Channel Original movie is in the top 30 movies of all time? And who are the hosts of the Subbeacon/Substandard/SSEU Podcasts with the best opinions?

Draft Day? More like Daft Day! We have one question for Kevin Costner: Why? Are you in financial trouble? Listen to the boys discuss the way-too-long NFL promotional movie known as Draft Day (2014). Chris dives into a manhole, Ryan has thoughts about Adam Neumann and Thomas creates an awkward silence when he wants to discuss Odell Beckham Jr's attractiveness.

On this week's episode, Chris and Ryan gush over some space show that they have been watching. The boys also provide marriage advice although Thomas is concerned about how long those things can actually last. Chris and Ryan also get their NBA and movie skills tested in two separate quizzes.

Our own Matty joins us to chat about the 2021 film Me, You, Madness. We watched it so that you do not have to. Chris struggles to find a nice pair of shorts, we learn everything we need to know about Tysons Corner, and take a quiz on the escapades of conservative media so far this year.

JVL hops on the show to discuss the greatest dick joke of all time. We also have time for ladder porn, Flash's baseball career, and a quick preview of movies left to come out in 2021.

In this episode, we add another foreign accent to the SSEU menagerie. Shay Khatiri joins the show to chat a bit about Iran, Hungary, and his life in Phoenix/D.C. We also find out why the Bulwark editors hate him and hear Ryan trash the otherwise universally loved show Entourage.

Episode 114: Lady SSEU and a C

March 26th, 2021  |  57 mins 24 secs

Here is a new expansion in the ever extending SSEU extension universe. Lara, Tonya and Jan recorded the first ever Lady SSEU but never one to be upstaged Chris demanded to host.

aussie rules, australia, cate blanchett, mark strong, russell crowe, the ashes

In a first for the podcast, we are joined by an Aussie to discuss all things Vienna! Okay, maybe not. But we are joined by an Aussie. We chat about Aussie rules, disappearing prime ministers, Andrew Jackson, and how Kansas is actually just like the Gold Coast. Our guest also chose a movie starring Russell Crowe (we get a Crowe-ranking!) and Cate Blanchett to round off the episode.

anne hathaway, emil forsberg, emilia clarke, indiana university, percy fawcett, the big ten

The boys were supposed to discuss News of the World but no one liked it (and only the Swede finished it), so instead we are treated to a discussion about explorers in the Amazon, college basketball, a celebrity game, and a ranking of the worst people that you find online.
