Joel Duscher's Christmas Miracles
29/12/2014 Duración: 09minIn which our heroes don’t turn up to the studio, leave Duscher by himself, take a week off and lazily upload something from our past. We laugh, we cry, we avoid looking at Duscher directly in the face and wonder how we ever piece an episode together. Jackson just wants everyone to know where incest falls on the awful scale, Zammit patiently waits it out and Duscher just wants to get the intro right. It’s a supercut of every time Duscher fucks up introducing the show, but on the plus side it gets him to that right level of anger. So join the gang as we look back at our first season and come to the realisation that we aren’t very professional. Merry Christmas.To help us buy elocution lessons for Duscher head to http://www.patreon.com/sanspantsradio and for as little as $1 a month, you can make a difference in us getting the job done quicker.

Jackson puts his faith in Frosty the Snowman, Zammit manages to make this somehow about comic books and Duscher just wants everyone to know how amazing Argyle is. So join the gang as they scheme, strategise and scam their way into the bank vaults, but ultimately, your hearts. It’s a yuletide, holiday heist which will almost definitely end with an inevitable betrayal.

Why Hasn't Hogwarts Been Shut Down Yet?
15/12/2014 Duración: 37minIn which our heroes avoid getting petrified by the basilisk, dodge the whomping willow, trip on some moving stairs and wonder why Hogwarts hasn’t been shut down.

Jackson wants to turn all his adversaries into cups, Zammit keeps getting Dumbledore confused with Voldemort and Duscher just wants to know why there’s a password to see the Headmaster. So join the gang as they lose 10 points by confronting the Great Evil but gain 100 for defeating said Great Evil.

What Happens After Hogwarts?

We struggle to understand the patronus spell, question how any of the defence against the dark arts teachers got a job and can’t comprehend the timetable. Jackson dreams of being a football star, Zammit wants to know which of his teachers are werewolves and Duscher just wants everyone to understand Harry Potter is immortal. Join the gang as they try to find everyone a job, do some table math then kinda just give up on everything all together. It's an education that goes nowhere as we realise that no one is prepared for a single wizarding job.To help us find a real job head to http://www.patreon.com/sanspantsradio and for as little as $1 a month, you can make a difference in our wizarding lives.

Our Quibbles with Squibs
01/12/2014 Duración: 24minIn which our heroes fail to exhibit any magical tendencies, are barred from attending Hogwarts, and become janitors as we wonder where Squibs fit into the Harry Potter Universe. We discuss Filch's unfortunate situation, Wizard genetics, Wizard medical procedures and the double standard of Mudbloods and Squibs. Jackson wonders how many Hermiones there are, Zammit gets existential about paintings, and Duscher just assumes he'd be a Wizard no matter what. It's an unfortunate, scramble for a job suitable for a Squib as we avoid being Squid shamed and watch all the cool kids learn magic while we can’t even learn how to mix a potion or tame a dragon.
