Impolite Company

Cold weather usually means that cuffing season is upon us. For Sam and guest Justin Luke, it's the official start of Sad *Neighbor* Season, and you can't survive these next few months without some emotional bangerz on your playlist. They also talk the success of the second annual Flyover Comedy Festival, and weather Cam'ron violated when he played a Puerto Rican in 'Paid In Full'. Book Justin on your shows, or give him a job.

Comedian and Christmas aficionado (Christmianado) Angela Smith joins Analicia and Yale to discuss her carefully strategized and curated holiday rituals, the magic of Hallmark Christmas movies, her random, purely contrarian distaste for soccer and her part in the kickoff to this year's Flyover Comedy Festival. Yale finds a literary avenue to plugging a sponsor. Analicia finds a gardening tool to be disturbingly hilarious All this plus the announcement of two holiday comedy spectaculars and, of course, the Flyover and Independent Comedy Rundown.

Cold bubbly water poured into your crotch will wake you up quite well. Chris shares this and other secrets.  He also wants to know, what the hell is wrong with you, Missouri?

Sam kills Chris again, and takes over the show. Yolanda MizzUnderstood Brown (yes, say the whole thing) joins him to talk Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, and cuffing season. Catch her being sued by her son on Judge Mathis Thursday at 3pm on ABC.

Chris has election advice for Missouri voters.  Mostly, that advice is to not let Josh Hawley make it to the U.S. Senate.  Seriously, Josh Hawley looks like he'd fuck cancer victims, in every sense of the word.  Don't vote for him. It's all we talk about today.  Go vote.  Unless you're going to vote for Josh Hawley.  In that case, wait until tomorrow. Seriously. Don't fucking vote for that guy. Also, demons. We talk about demons, and rituals, and food, maybe? It got a little hazy at one point. Chris mispronounced Gillespie and Peyton cracked up. Hawley can text in an opposing opinion if he wants. We dare him.

On this special Monday/Black Friday edition of Impolite Company's Wind-Down Friday, Yale defends holiday music in November, embraces his role as The Woke Curmudgeon and gives us a preview of the first night of the Flyover Comedy Festival's stand-up and sketch offerings. Analicia vigorously but cheerfully urges restraint on pre-Thanksgiving holiday tunes, and challenges Yale to a game of Shakespeare trivia. Meanwhile, Lyons Den host Sam Lyons texts in to furtively defend the honor of his time slot.

One night in August, Chris went to a party.  The party kept going until it night became morning.  The show doesn't stop just because of whiskey. This is a cautionary tale.  If you consume too much of the devil's party water, you're going to say some questionable things.  Especially concerning the series finale of M*A*S*H. So anyway, here's the episode that was "lost" to the general public.  

It's time to Wind Down in The Lyons Den as Sam fills in for Yale today. Join us for an hour of sound effects, childhood tales and awkward flirts between Wind Down Friday co-host Analica Kocher and The Lyons Den host Sam Lyons. Don't forget to vote!  

Chris is doped up on cold medicine and can't be held responsible for how tired he sounds, or for anything he says.  He's taken so much cold medicine, that he can't remember what he talked about as he writes this description two days late.  He thinks he said, "I don't know, man. I don't have any answers." a lot. Yeah.  He knows he recorded the outro twice and messed up the outro music.  Did you miss the part where he took Nyquil instead of Dayquil? He wasn't in the studio where Peyton could do things better.

It's Halloween! Draw your pentagrams, like your black candles, put on your robes, and place an Almond Joy in the center of the summoning circle for our Dark Lord to snack on after he appears.  Chris has thoughts on this day.  Let's see if he survives this episode of Impolite Company!

Chris discusses why drunk people shouldn't talk to the musician on stage. There's a discussion about weddings, why the government won't let you have a pokemon, and other topics.  It's a fun ride on today's Impolite Company.

Happy Monday? We guess? It will be once you step into The Lyons Den Sam spends the top of the hour alone with his thoughts, always an interesting journey. Richy James stops by to promote his new open mic. Catch it every first Friday at Artist Art. Doors at 7:30, show 8:15, $5 entry. Performers enter free with advance notice. Don’t forget to vote November 6.  

Yale impatiently awaits Analicia's arrival by taking on a beloved American sandwich institution. Once reunited, the pair talk improv, the storytelling show that brought them together and the mystery of Norbert and Anne. Halloween is debated, comedy and improv schedules are revealed, important questions are left unanswered!

Yesterday, a bunch of suspicious packages were mailed to the offices of various people and institutions referred to as "enemies of the people" and other insults by the President of the United States. That was bad. Today one of those packages was received by Robert De Niro. Chris lets these terrorists, whoever they are,  Al Queda or Al Smith, know that they've gone too far. 

Chris did not win the big ass lottery drawing last night.  He didn't even buy a ticket. But he has a plan to get rich anyway. Unrelated fact: Did you know that it's practically impossible to prosecute 100 people for the same murder? Other unrelated fact: Do you know that $1.7 billion divided by 100 is still a really big number? Just kidding...

Chris talks about horror movies and relates them to the real world.  The kind of people who live in Newtown, would definitely build their homes on a cursed cemetery. Possessed children just need to be punched in the face.  Send Seal Team 6 after Michael Meyers. There a smorgasbord  of information.    

SLPS candidate Adam Layne joins Sam in The Lyons Den. They talk public education, college prep, and candy corn. Find the candidates here, review their platforms, and go vote on November 6! It's what Diddy would do

Analicia tells a harrowing tale of a recent condiment crisis and also bolsters her street cred as a magnet for armed robbery. Yale launches another Quixotic pursuit of a major league sports team for Our Town and somehow winds up riffing on animal entrails as a soothsaying device. Boob Guns, Coffee Talk, Cremated deer - it's all here!

On today's Impolite Company, Chris discusses his disappointment in finding a seed in a Clementine this morning.  He also thinks your kids would learn more from watching The Devil's Rejects than they'll learn from Chronicles of Narnia. Did your kid go Eli Roth on a bully? Then this episode is for you.                      

Proud To Be An American is a terrible song. It's even worse when sung by drunk white people at a karaoke bar.  Lee Greenwood is a chump. It's impolite Company with Chris Cyr.
