info_outline Season 2, Ep 3: Where’s Your Daddy?The First Michael Podcast
We can’t tell you much in the episode description without giving things away, so we’ll give you this: there’s a promo for a sitcom we’re pitching to Netflix, there are guest interviews that will restore your love of humanity, plus a whole new song to get your groove back! But is there a cliffhanger? People, please. It’s what we do.
info_outline Season 2, Ep 2: Who’s Your Daddy, Part 2The First Michael Podcast
After the cliffhanger in the last episode, it’s time to go deep and find out exactly what happens when Michael knocks on Daddy’s door. You’ll hear more recordings from the road, interviews with Michael’s family when they learn the news of what went down, and you’ll find out what will happen next. Let’s just say we’re not done with cliffhangers on this show and it doesn’t end with us going back home to Portland – stay tuned until the end!
info_outline Season 2, Ep 1: Who’s Your Daddy, Part 1The First Michael Podcast
Michael and Lanie fly to Florida, survey the swamp scene, get hammered, and set out to find Daddy – all in the first 48 hours. You’ll hear recordings from the road, because let’s be honest, hearing stories about drunk people can be funny, but hearing stories FROM people while they’re drunk is where the comedy gold is buried. This episode even includes an original song dedicated to our loyal listeners that will be burning up the dance charts for months to come..

info_outline Ep8: And You Brought Me HomeThe First Michael Podcast

info_outline Ep7: Queen of Shining Light, part IIThe First Michael Podcast
If there’s one thing we love on this podcast, it’s episodes that are sequels to other episodes. Also, wieners, we love those, too. Anyway, if you’ve been paying attention, you know that Michael has, like, twice as many moms as most people, but they’re all dead, so the whole thing is a real mixed bag for him. The dead mom in this episode is Elaine. Will there be tears? Perhaps a few, but this one will have you in stitches. I swear on all my mothers’ graves.
info_outline Ep6 :The Wicked Twist, Part IIThe First Michael Podcast
Michael is no longer a precocious tyke in this episode, he’s a teenager. Now that the Devil isn’t trying to tempt him to steal gingerbread cookies, will life get easier for our intrepid hero? Or will puberty, wieners, body hair, locker rooms and a cute new boy at school make things, uhh… harder? We’re also edging ever closer to Michael and Lanie departing for their fateful trip, so be sure to stay caught up and don’t forget to send us your stories of first crushes to [email protected]
info_outline Ep5: Small Town BoyThe First Michael Podcast
The Big City Buonocores move from Brooklyn to small town Buckley, Washington, and it’s a bit of a crash landing for Michael. While his mother is glad to be away from the dangers of city life and his father is charmed by their rural surroundings, our young hero is not so thrilled. First of all, there are spiders and bees and an entirely unnecessary amount of nature. Second of all, the big source of entertainment in town is the Logger’s Rodeo. Who rodeos logs? Why is there a feed store downtown?
info_outline Ep4: The Wicked Twist Part 1The First Michael Podcast
Remember all that stuff in episode 1 about how Michael is the Perfect Goodheart, the Chosen One sent from God? Prepare to have your world rocked when you find out the Devil has his hooks in him. We’ll travel back in time to Brooklyn in the 1970’s, when Satan was very actively possessing the children of Catholic parents, as we all know from the horror films of that era.
info_outlineMichael’s whirlwind journey to meet his new family members nets him two “Welcome to the Family” cakes, so he’s feeling really good about the whole situation. He’ll never get to meet his birth mom, Regina, but he does have some journal entries she wrote about his birth. Michael shares some of these writings in this episode and you might want to have some tissues nearby. Lanie went through ten of them in the studio. We’ll all get through it together.
