It's Episode 51 of the Is This A Thing? Podcast!

"Dan Week!"

Starring: Marc, Dan, and Akshat

Dan's Potential Things This Week: 

• Leftovers: Remember when Dan ate all of Marc's leftovers after Marc's bachelor party? Neither does Dan apparently. But he does remember the way it made him feel... It was sexual. 
• The Dan Method: Listen, as Dan has an actual, bonafide good idea. We were just as shocked as you. Make sure to use the Marc Maneuver though. Try it at home... for a price.
• Passwords: Is sharing your password with your significant other a thing? Should it be a thing? Are our significant others monsters for not docking their messaging app? Yes.

It's episode 51 of the Is This A Thing Podcast! and Happy Dan Week!!! Have you hugged a Dan today?  This episode is all about Dan. He came up with the questions that would inspire a generation. Listen to Marc and Akshat in horror as they have to consider whatever comes out of his mouth. He starts with Leftovers. Is it okay to eat leftovers that aren't yours? What if they're Marc's? What if Marc was hungover the next day and really needed them? Also, listen as Dan discovers a fetish. Then, we learn about The Dan Method, which surprisingly isn't sexual at all. It is a special method of dealing with flights with a significant other, works even better after the trip! Finally, he asks about Password Sharing with your significant other. How many of their passwords do you know? How much do they know? How paranoid is Marc? Why are you asking questions? Who are you?

Happy Dan Week, everybody!

Is This A Thing Episode #13: Multidimensional Dog Buffet

Episode 13 of the Is This a Thing? Podcast!

"Multidimensional Dog Buffet"

Starring: Marc, Akshat, and Dan

Potential Things this week:  

• Newscasters on Television: We're not sure there's a concrete answer to whether real newscasters should be allowed in fictional universes. We do know that we'd like Larry King in all fictional universes, playing all the roles.  
• Buffets: Forget every opinion you had, because you've been living in a Ivory Tower, going to buffet after buffet and getting fat on chinese food and judgement. 
• General Tso' Pizza: The good idea train keeps rolling. Yes, we've applied for a McArthur Genius Grant. No, they won't return our calls.  
• Facebook Page for Pets: Having a Facebook page is what separated us from the animals. It's the most human act outside of differentiating between a salad fork and a regular fork.  

It's Episode 13 of the Is This A Thing Podcast! We discuss whether it should be okay to have real newscasters in fictional TV Shows and movies. Is it a difference in approach? Is it that we want Larry King to play all the roles in the next Mission Impossible? You'll find out! We then move to Dan's controversial hatred of buffets. Like with most things, Dan's solution is bread lines for the poor. We also come up with the most amazing food of all time: Chinese pizza! The possibilities are as endless as the diarrhea is sure to be! Please give us money. Finally, we have another listener question: is it a thing to make a Facebook page for your pet? We know what you're thinking, and the answer is yes: it would be great if cars sent really hyper sexual tweets to their owners. We're all on the same page here.
