Episode 163: This Beat Is Dope

[LINDA]

If anyone cares what those actually sound like... WEED!

I was trying to figure out what this noise reminded me of, and I just remembered that it sounds a lot like the beginning of Metronome Arthritis by the band At The Drive-In.

So basically, this is a lot like Omar Rodriguez-Lopez fucking around with an effect pedal for an hour.

I look forward to the inevitable split into idoser The Mars Volta and idoser Sparta

came to support the podcast, stayed for the mars volta references

My favourite part was the guy who said i-doser fucked up his brain so he went to get acupuncture to fix it. The best way to fix a bad placebo is with another placebo!

Also I think the file for Jenkem is just this:

I never realized that a 'dose' was 45 minutes long, holy shit.

I didn't realize it would've been something both literally and figuratively static.

I hope he got the acupuncture in his brain. Straight to the root of the problem! Fix the brain!

This episode reminded me of the kids in High School who swore they got high smoking bananas peels once. Or that the candle-shaped mushrooms sold at the New Age store at the mall totally contained real pot! And you could get high from burning them! Pretty much any teenager who were somehow too stupid to figure out how to get high from huffing fumes.

fun fact I once talked with a comic artist who has dyslexia and did a comic about her issues with it as a child and the abuse she faced within the special education system, and she said someone at her school who was NOT in the special ed program tried to get high by smoking a hemp bracelet WITH the fimo beads on it, and it still made her furious to this day that that asshole got to be considered more "normal" than her and didn't get be forced into the special ed program where she learned nothing and was taught she was worthless just because she had trouble telling certain letters apart from other ones.

When I was in Boy Scouts some guys tried to get high by smoking dead grass

They called it yellowgrass and said that it was more potent than the most potent marijuana

One time I thought that the white fuzzy seeds that hung off the creosote trees were drugs, and that you could grind them up and get hiiiiigh.

Well, you can't. Unless you consider the very refreshing and clean smell of the Southwestern desert after a rainstorm to be a drug.

I just relistened to this episode and was wondering that scam was still around, and now I know.
