Travis explains why he knows he loves Brandi, a cat is being mean to us and Brandi likes body suits.
In honor of Valentine’s Day we start off with an anti-soul mate and anti-best friend rant that ends with some Facebook hatred. Then Brandi revels and possible invents a new phobia. And finally we went to go see one of our favorite musicians / performers last week and Brandi made some ass fans as well as revealed she wants to be laid to rest in a black metal urn.

This week it’s an all music related extravaganza! First up it’s all about the early years of being a music fan. And to go along with that, yes, it has finally been unearthed – the audio of a teenage Brandi trying to sing a Hole song. But turn about is fair play and Travis decides to reveal an embarrassing tale about himself. It’s a TOC Pod Exclusive! After that it’s time for an in studio guest. You know him from bands like Deep Dark Robot and Fatso Jetson. That’s right Mr. Tony Tornay joins us at the TOC Pod HQ and talks to us about being in bands, touring, Chevy Cavaliers, nudity, vaginas and firearms. After that it’s all about the live shows, man. Brandi found a box full of ticket stubs from shows she went to, shows she can’t remember going to, and shows she forgot to go to all together. Soon it’s all about how going to live shows changes as you get older and Travis has a suggestion on how to make a concert more enjoyable now that he’s in his 30′s. Two words: recliner section!

Fair warning folks, this one gets weird even for us. Travis starts off talking about the competition between the 3 Travis Clarks in entertainment and how it almost worked out in his favor. Soon it devolves into a couple of Logan’s Run references and some good ol’ old people hating. We even invent a new “competition” that involves old people and we make suggestions about how to use them in order to save your marriage. After that Brandi reveals that she’s been reading Twilight and that she likes dreamy vampires. She even declares that she’s on Team Edward. Swear to God. Travis then berates the entire franchise and yet he seems to know an awful lot about it… including the different colors of Edward’s eyes. Me thinks the man doth protest too much. Finally we end with bugs since Travis had an almost intimate experience with a Black Widow and there’s an invading ant army that’s literally driving Brandi to tears. Soon many odd avenues and orifices are exploited by this topic.

It’s time for some more TOC! We start this episode off with anger and how it applies to human nature. Travis recounts one of his revenge fantasies and Brandi gives us a peak into her dark side – dark for her anyway. Then somehow we get into how we’d defend our house from costumed home invaders. After that then it’s all about marriage. Well, actually it’s all about the bullshit social obligations associated with weddings. Travis takes issue with Crate and Barrel and fawns over a particular guitar maker while Brandi tries to tell EVERYONE what our weddings plans are. Lastly Brandi reveals some of her least favorite sayings as we discuss clichés and other stupid shit people say that has somehow become acceptable. Oh yeah… and chin omelets.
