On the second part of Episode 200, I tell how You Don’t Know Flack came to be, how it got its name, and where the first 100 episodes went. After that I run through episodes 101-199, offering brief reviews, comments, and insight. Thank you for celebrating You Don’t Know Flack with me!

Multiple Sadness 010: Naked Space

Some people know it as The Creature Wasn’t Nice, others refer to it as Spaceship, but most people know it as Naked Space. On this episode of Multiple Sadness we join the crew of the spaceship Vertigo and attempt to not get our faces bitten off in this Alien parody from the early 1980s.

YDKF Episode 200.1: My Buddy, Andy

It took me 13 years, but I finally made it to episode 200 of You Don’t Know Flack! To celebrate this event, I will be publishing a mamma-jamma episode split into three parts. In part one, I interview my buddy Andy. We met around the age of five, and we are still best friends today. So many of my stories begin with “my buddy Andy” so it only made sense to get him on the show!
