And because The Grawlix Saves the World has been (and always will be) a vengeful Old Testament type of podcast, the boys challenge one another to create holiday self-care kits—three items that bring them comfort and joy—to help them navigate the trials and tribulations of Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, Solstice, Boxing Day, Las Posadas and ALL the special days of this yuletide season.

S2 Ep 47Scary Movies to Talk About in the Dark

The boys try to scare the bejesus out of each other through horror movies. If you're a fan of the pod, you know that Andrew and Adam have been going pretty hard at ole Ben Roy lately with a string of challenges designed to make him face his fears. So, in this episode, Ben turns the tables—well, on Adam, anyway—by forcing him to watch the scariest horror movies that the trio can muster. The boys give themselves one week to watch three films: The Descent, Gaia, and The Exorcism of Emily Rose. Andrew, who loves horror movies, is happier than a pig in shit, but his time is coming as well.

The boys "live off the land" by tasting some exotic mountain meats. Live podcast episode! We eat exotic mountain meats cooked by Producer Ron and Ben's son Milo! Yes, even Ben, who's a vegetarian! Earlier this month, we were invited to perform at the opening weekend at TACAW (The Arts Campus at Willits), an amazing new venue north of Aspen in Basalt, Colorado. The mountain peaks were dusted with snow, and the aspen leaves were popping off, and we Grawlix three were just feeling, like, really connected to nature, you know? So, we decided to try "living off the land" in front of a live audience—a.k.a. tasting three mystery dishes featuring iconic Colorado animals—all lovingly prepared by Producer Ron and Ben's son Milo.
