Episode 16: Bo-Po (but really?), reply alls and the dumbest stuff you hear in meetings 46:22

6d ago46:22

46:22

Have you ever worked a job? Do you find yourself saying the most ridiculous things to other people while wearing work attire? Do you want to love your body but can't because clothing sizes are stupid? What about when you get 37 replies to one email that was sent to 134 people? How do you feel about Suzanne Somers and Summer Sanders?…

Episode 15: All the queer stuff 1:00:16

13d ago1:00:16

1:00:16

In this groundbreaking episode of El Corner Booth we tackle what no one has ever attempted to tackle in the entire world of media: Queerness. That's right. Queer celebrities, queer experiences, Pride Month. We also have some things to say to Jamie, have opinions on late night food availability, and stupid people who save lounge chairs when it's tot…

Episode 14: Too much milk in the Mac n cheese, WWF, Stunnerrrr, and unfinished crafts 48:30

23d ago48:30

48:30

Got your earbuds in? You might need them because we recorded at Ruthie's house this week. 2 dogs, a couple cats, children who don't understand "be quiet we are changing the world with El Corner Booth" and floors that creak if you look at them wrong...that makes for less than ideal sound. YOU GUYS WE ARE WORKING ON IT. In this episode we go over the…

Episode 12: Malls, cinnamon rolls and checkbooks 54:02

1M ago54:02

54:02

Last time you went to a mall? Listen, the dream of the 90s is alive in malls, people. Did your mom ever drop you off in front of the entrance to Barnes and Noble and say, "Meet me back here at 4:00. If you're not here, I'm leaving!" ? Did you ever sneak a peek at Fredricks of Hollywood and then feel instant shame? How much, in your entire life, hav…

Episode 11: Bridge tolls, Danny DeVito, Bitcoin, and the person who helped launch Chad's funeral tour. 1:15:29

1M ago1:15:29

1:15:29

First things first, we have our first paying sponsor. WE ARE DOING THIS PROFESSIONALLY. So go eat at Bleu Door Bakery in Vancouver. Second things second, do you even know what fungible means? Neither do we and we don't give a f*$. Bridge tolls? Don't care. BIRDS? They can go straight to hell. Chad's not a republican but when it comes to birds he …

Episode 10: Palm Springs, Voicemails and Busking. 40:26

2M ago40:26

40:26

After a rocky last week, El Corner Booth is back. Chad's finally back from Palm Springs and has things to say. Which, honestly, we love. It's a beaut out there, folks, and we're ready for rooftop bars, frose from Airfield and the view from our miserable workspaces to be sunny.By Chad and Ruthie

Episode 8: But why and how and what for?! 53:36

3M ago53:36

53:36

But seriously, how the fuck does AI work? What really is the "stock market?" Gluten??? Never heard of it. Fake news. In this episode we just say what everyone is thinking and ask the big questions. So, like, does dry cleaning not use any water at all? Is flour made from wheat? Do financial advisors wear suits every day to work?! WHAT THE HELL IS GO…

Episode 7: Lil for president - dissecting Coyote Ugly 1:06:35

3M ago1:06:35

1:06:35

Welp, Chad got his wish and Ruthie watched Coyote Ugly to refresh her memory. BOY DID SHE REFRESH HER MEMORY. We don't just skim over the boring parts because there are no boring parts. And listen: we've got John Goodman, Piper Perabo (who is she anyway?), TYRA BANKS, some hot Australian dude and Melanie Lynsky. THE Melanie Lynskey. Y'ever heard of…

Episode 6: Highschool in the 2000's, good grades, bad grades, and how we could slam 2 JBCs a day and suffer no consequences 53:16

3M ago53:16

Ruthie got her way. In this episode Chad and Ruthie talk about their high school experiences. Ruthie in Idaho, Chad in Portland. Cars, school lunch, grades, and after school activities.

Episode 5: Special Guest, Chinese Cuisine and Baddies All Day Long 46:06

3M ago46:06

46:06

We've made it. We are at the point in our journey where people are asking to be involved. Nevermind it's Ruthie's child. Nevermind she needed something to do on Spring Break. What matters is she's here. We chat while eating orange chicken and chow mein. We discuss icks, TV (no shit, Einstein), el radio (always incorporating that foreign lang) and t…

Work History: A glimmer into why we are the way we are 50:48

4M ago50:48

50:48

In this eppy we discuss our past jobs - when they were (some of us excavated at the age of 9), what we wore (swimsuits), who our bosses were (sometimes our dads), our pay (very little) and our job duties. Just laying a foundation for who we are and how far we've come...or not.

Episode 3: Disneyland, Vegas, children on leashes and foie gras cotton candy 52:27

4M ago52:27

52:27

In this episode, Ruthie takes up 75% of the time with stories and ponderings of Disneyland. Why is Disney so weird and the people there so awful? What even are Hokas and Genie + is an absolutely rip-off but a necessary one. Chad went to Vegas, sold some rebar, wore a lanyard, and ate foie gras cotton candy. We tried our hand at intros and outros an…

Episode 2: when things are only slightly better, but better is better 29:28

4M ago29:28

29:28

We are the type of people who know when things aren't perfect. Episode two is better than episode one but isn't as good as episode three is gonna be. We talk about Best, Worst, Weirdest and then skedaddle on over to home decor and geese in bonnets (how do you even spell that)? Stick with us.

It may have taken 90 minutes to figure out the microphone situation and another 20 to figure out how to actually record, but episode one is out. Is it great? No. It is groundbreaking? Nowhere near. Will it make you chuckle? Yes? GIVE US TIME. We are gonna knock your socks off with things that absolutely never matter in the world. Because truly, do …
