Jabarie is roused out of bed to host his super-sized finale. After tracking down their jet-lagged leader, the gang comes together one last time to bring you tales of Jabarie's trek westward to Denver, a no-holds barred exit interview with the boss himself Marc Ronick, the return of the Brown's Brews Challenge (featuring Colorado beers, of course) and guests a plenty.  If you love getting behind the curtain, this is the show for you.

Thank you for (almost) six years of listening to us babble on about our lives and the world we live in.  We invite you one last time to grab a drink, pull up a chair, and stay awhile...

This was the Jabarie Brown Podcast.

(Originally recorded 2/08/2016) This week the gang discusses what they did (and didn't) do for the Super Bowl and how Jabarie's seemingly random choice of a football team to root for a few years ago makes a lot more sense now. Russell calls everyone out for not responding to texts, but finds out the good fortune that comes when you do.

It's the final episode of our special 3-part series of Jabarie-less Brown Podcasts leading to JB's return for the final JBP on Friday, March 11th.  The voice of the JBP Amy Wolf gives us a peek into the woman behind the sultry tones introducing us every week. Long lost superfan (and occasional assistant producer) Shmob brings us a gift, and reminds of a few we'd like to forget, before catching us up on his exploits since leaving the area.  RELM Network founder and podcasting titan Marc Ronick penciled us in for an interview but I guess we should have asked for pen and ink.  Oh well, 2 out of 3 ain't bad.  Maybe next time Marc!  Oh wait...

Next up...the final episode of the Jabarie Brown Podcast.

(originally recorded 1/31/2016) This week the gang rejoices as Jabarie finally got himself some Obamacare! Winter Storm Jonas blew through the DC area leaving a record snowfall in its wake.  We swap war stories from the snow drifts and critique the hysteria that led up to the storm in area grocery stores. Cuddle up by the fire and give us a listen!

(originally recorded on 1-17-2016) It's a week of goodbyes.  Panda says goodbye (just for the episode, calm down, she's back next week), we all say goodbye to an alarming number of celebrities who have passed away during the first few weeks of 2016, and JB continues to prepare for his big move by saying goodbye to everything that he has ever treasured in his entire life (ok, that's a little bit of hyperbole). Nobody likes getting rid of sentimental stuff... except Michael. 

Our second of three Jabarie-less episodes leading to Jabarie's return for the final episode of the JBP on March 11th.  We invite back both Michael's twin brother Chad and listener/friend Ben to the show, a debate from the first episodes of the podcast is finally put to rest, Russell asks the group to pitch him on their new podcasts once the JBP is over, a little bit of JB stayed behind (not to Panda's liking), and of course, more nostalgia is waxed.

(originally recorded on 1/11/2016) We have a blast from the past as our original producer Russell joins the crew again for the final episodes of the JBP.  Speaking of which, Jabarie is moving to Colorado.  Or is he?  JB is getting cold feet.  Russell comes baring gifts, one of which is improving the audio quality of the show.  With only a few episodes left the gang is starting to get nostalgic...well, everyone except for JB's dad and Michael.

Spoiler Alert. If you haven't listened to episode 255, stop right now and go listen.

With Jabarie off to Colorado, Michael begins to steer the captain-less ship back to shore. We peel back the curtain on everything that has been going on the past couple of months and our plans for ending the JBP in a way everyone can enjoy.

In the final hours of 2015, the gang reminisces about the past year and makes some resolutions for 2016.

Then Jabarie drops a bombshell.

Welcome to another episode of the JBP! This week the gang discusses the truth behind Black Friday and Cyber Monday and then gets into a heated discussion about being a real man by being your own boss.

Welcome to another episode of the JBP! This week, the gang gets a little off track, but learn a lot about the rules and norms of online dating. Jabarie and Michael share their past (and current) practices, while Panda chimes in the best she can!

Welcome back everyone! This week the gang talks turkey, the holidays, and we realize that JB is an absolute Christmas scrooge. Then the crew follows up on the Phi Kappa Psi vs. Rolling Stone defamation lawsuit and we ponder if 25 million dollars in damages is actually justified. Lastly we turn our Sauron like gaze onto the University of Missouri and discuss all the rumblings going on there.

Welcome to another episode of the JBP! This week the gang is feeling their age as they discuss their Halloween activities (or lack there of). Jabarie is seeking advice on what to do about an interesting development in his family life.

Welcome to the JBP! Jabarie has some fun Halloween facts for everyone and the gang reminisces about their favorite (and not so favorite) Halloween candies. We also discuss a real life horror story of a guy who binge-watched a few too many episodes of The Walking Dead. Remember kids, binge responsibly!

Welcome back everyone to The JBP! Be on the lookout for Marty McFly because Back to the Future Day is upon us! That's right, October 21st is Back to the Future Day and the gang will be time traveling all over the place! This week Michael is on a mission in the past so our remaining adventurers have to leap into the future! We discuss fun fall facts, the new Hover Board being released by a Japanese tech company, and the Governments decision to implement drone registration. Brace yourself. This episode is over 1.21 giga watts!

Welcome back everyone to The JBP! A particular holiday is upon us but perhaps we should holidon't this year. This week the guys are sans Panda as Michael and Joe get spooky at a haunted house and Jabarie has the best weekend ever!

You want an episode devoid of poop? Well tough, because this episode piggybacks on last week's topic about pooping. Where do you poop? How do you poop? What do you use when you poop? Poop. Poop. Poop. Oh, and JB gets ranty about a sketchy car dealership. Enjoy!

Michael shares a story that hearkens back to old episodes. We hope you don't have a weak stomach while listening to this one. Then we talk about whether American's have an obsession with punishment and justice when it comes to incarceration.

This week on the JBP we had some topics we wanted to talk about. But in the end the conversation was all about marriage. Joe goes to his cousins wedding who may or may not be part of the mafia. Michael goes to his brother’s wedding with Panda and JB. Good times are had by all. Yay Weddings!

Welcome back everyone! We've missed you all. The JBP crew has been scattered to the far winds but we've gathered here once again to bring you a brand new episode of the JBP. This week domesticated Joe talks about drunken wedding shenanigan fisticuffs. JB, also talks about the passing of his beloved Black Bird and his quest to find a new space ship. This show is a little hung over. Make sure to drink lots of water.

Welcome back for another week of the JBP! This week's show is full of terror and screams as the gang pays tribute to Wes Craven. So grab a flashlight, lock all the doors, and whatever you do don't fall asleep.

This week on the JBP the gang gets a delicious treat from a listeners, and of course Michael makes it awkward. For our topics we update you on two events we discussed previously. First, we discuss how long Jared Fogel should go to jail for his alleged crimes of statutory rape. Then we talk about Josh Duggar's infidelity and how the Ashley Madison hack changes our perception of privacy. 

Welcome back for another week of the JBP! In this episode the gang takes a pause to honor and remember. First, Joe shares his experience of celebrating his grandfather's ninetieth birthday in Pennsylvania! Then the crew reflects on this week marking seventy years since atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki Japan.

This week on the JBP: Michael and JB nerd out as the DOTA 2 finals were broadcast on ESPN over the weekend. Then we discuss the last episode of The Daily Show where JB gives an impressive eulogy for a show he only kind of watched. The gang then discusses a number of impressive comedians that were correspondents on that show. 

This week on the JBP the gang discusses what would make the best movie marathons after JB watches a bunch of Mission Impossible movies over the weekend. After that we dive deep into the death of Cecil the Lion, an important lion to the Zimbabwe community, who was shot and killed by an American hunter for sport. 

This week on the JBP, "The Panda" makes a very weird bet, we are pretty sure she is feeling a bit under the weather. Michael tells the gang about his brother's bachelor party in Montreal. Then we talk about dinner etiquette after an owner yelled at a crying baby who wailed for an hour in a New England diner. 

Good news everyone! We're back again with your weekly dose of The JBP! In this episode the gang welcomes Joe as he returns from his week long vacay and Jabarie and Panda talk about their JMU College Reunion! (Sorry Dolphins, no Michael this week...) Then the crew shifts focus to the recent hacking scandal involving the infamous infidelity and dating website Ashley Madison. 37 Million users had their personal accounts hacked and their torried information stolen. "Hacktivism", privacy, and cheating (OH MY!) all on this episode of The JBP.

This week on the JBP we update you on the Bill Cosby scandal (since he is back in the news). An unsealed deposition from 2005 shows that he bought Quaaludes with the intent of giving them to a woman he wanted to have sex with. After that we discuss a case where a 24 year-old Belgian woman was granted the right to die after suffering from intractable and unbearable depression. 

This week on the JBP we discuss our 4^th of July Celebrations. While Joe and Amanda are sufficiently patriotic, Michael tries to suck the fun out of the holiday, and JB gets a last second invite to see one of his favorite bands. After that we discuss Jerry Seinfeld’s critique on doing stand up at college campuses. Do you think as a culture we have become to overly sensitive?  

This week on the JBP we talk about the history of the Confederate flag (also known as the Battle flag), and how some people see the flag as a symbol of hate while others see the flag as a symbol of heritage.

This week on the JBP we dip into our mailbag where one passionate reader disagrees with Michael on Game of Thrones. Afterwards the JBP discusses the results of a personality test where the gang could be divided up into four groups: Power, Peace, Intimacy, and Fun.

With the anniversary of D-day this past week, the JPB decides to discuss World War 2. What the mentality of the soldiers were at that time in history, and the sheer number of deaths compared to wars that happen nowadays. 

This week on the JBP, Michael’s car gets broken into while in D.C. Then we discuss Caitlyn Jenner being on the cover of Vanity Fair and what that means for the transgender community. 

This week on the JBP the gang gets a little spoilery with Game Of Thrones again. As they discussed the ____ in episode ____ which resulted in _____. Then we discuss a fake chocolate diet that fooled people into thinking they could lose weight.  Also, Janice Dickinson sues Bill Cosby’s lawyer for defamation after the lawyer said Dickerson lied about being raped by Cosby. 

Welcome back JBP Nation! This week the fellas are sans Panda (come back to us Ailuropoda melanoleuca!) and the hijinks ensue. Summer is officially here and so is THE PANDA'S BIRTHDAY! So the guys chat about day drinking at a winery to celebrate the birth of our favorite furry friend. We also discuss theater etiquette when Joe tells us about an unwanted guest that came along with his surprise tickets to see Amy Schumer.

This week on the JBP it's all about the women. First, we talk about actress Sofia Vergara who is being sued by her ex-fiance over custody of their frozen embryos. Our other topic this week is about a petition for a woman to replace Andrew Jackson on the 20 dollar bill (partly because Andrew Jackson sucks. Partly because it'd be cool to have a woman on the 20 dollar bill.)

This week on the JBP, JB considers jumping off the Capital's bandwagon, much to the chagrin of the Panda and Michael. Then we talk about Elon Musk (or Iron Man), trying to get the whole world to stop using Fossil Fuels. Can it be done? That will take one really big battery... or a whole bunch of tiny ones. 

This week on the JBP. Michael makes a bold claim about an actor he likes. The gang discusses the big boxing match that no one was really that excited to watch. Then we discuss an article where the Chinese have claimed to have successfully edited a human embryo, which ends up getting into a conversation that mirrors the plot line of Gattaca.

This week on the JBP Joe gets a rude awakening at his new apartment. DC sports teams are currently being good at sports (sans the Nats) which make Michael and JB happy. Oh, and Baltimore is currently rioting at the time of the recording… Yikes.  

Unfortunately, Matt Damon wasn’t able to make it on to the JBP this week, but the show was still awesome! This week on the JBP, moving day is quickly coming for Joe. Then we get into a listener’s e-mail that gets a tad spoilery if you watch Game of Thrones. Also, you wouldn’t believe what animal JB’s co-worker doesn’t think exists, It will blow your mind. Yes, I know that last sentence was very Buzzfeedish. Deal with it.  

This week on the JBP, Mike gives a very interesting "Today I Learned" for his week in review. But after that we get to John Oliver's interview with Edward Snowden. In which we discuss the justification of the Snowden leaks of classified information, and whether the interview regarding the Patriot Act will cause real change in America. 

This week on the JBP, Michael trolls Panda and her love of the Brontosaurus, but Panda knows how to pay Michael back twofold. Then we dip into the mailbag, one listener writes about the legality on whether the Instagram account who posted pictures of guys reading on trains without their permission can be sued.  The other was about our update on the Ferguson shootings. 

Happy Spring Everyone! This week the JBP is full cast strong (hide your kids, hide your wives, AND hide your husbands...). Many things have happened since we've last seen our heroes and this episode we catch up on "The Misadventures of The JBP" (bring some one dollar bills, you'll definitely need them...)!

This week on the JBP, Jabarie finds out from Michael that people on Tinder are using it for things other than a dating app. After that we check back in on Ferguson, where the DOJ released their findings on the Michael Brown shooting. 

Happy St. Patrick's Day Everyone! This week Jabarie opens the show with a question for Joe and Amanda regarding a term he's been recently called. Then the gang dives head first into the letter that was sent from the U.S. Congress to the Leaders of Iran regarding their negotiations with President Obama. The group then transitions onto the recent buzz around Hillary Clinton using her private email account for possible government affairs. It's Cirque du Politico this week on the JBP!

This week on the JBP we discuss a new instagram profile that takes pictures of hot guys reading books on trains. Is this harmless fun or an invasion of privacy? After that we discuss how baseball Hall-Of-Famer Curt Shilling fights back against people trolling his daughter by posting their harassing messages so their employer and school can see. Our last topic gets really spoilerish so listeners BEWARE. In this segment we discuss which deaths in cinema hit us the hardest. We find out that even Michael has a heart... Well, sort of. 

This week Joe returns but the Michael is nowhere to be found. Jabarie opens the show with a miraculous new biological discovery that he's made...uh...heard about (and the Panda is all about that sickness induced bass). The gang then dives into the recent FCC approval of Net Neutrality rules and discusses what that means for the future of the Internetz. After that we take a little pause to remember Leonard Nimoy. Finally we round the show out with a discussion of the recent Saturday Night Live Toyota commercial parody with the controversial Isis reference twist.

This week on the JBP, Jabarie gets a little ruffled after Michael insults all single people over the age of 30. Then we discuss a food delicacy that involves bodily fluids... yummy. Last on our list is an article about MarsOne, which is a non for profit organization that is trying to establish the first human settlement on Mars by 2025. They are trying to raise funds by creating a reality TV show of the people being sent to Mars. 

This week on the JBP the gang talks about what they did for Valentine's Day. After that it is updates galore as a reader chimes in on their thoughts about anti-vaccination. Also, Brian Williams receives a 6 month suspension for fibbing about Iraq. Finally we discuss Jon Stewart's decision to leave The Daily Show. 

Yeah, the title doesn't make a lot of sense. But it sounds cool. Anywho... this week on the JBP, Jabarie gets the shaft playing white elephant at a Christmas party. Yes, we know its February. After that we talk about the recent outbreak of measles. Should we be scared? Finally, we discuss how Brian Williams got in trouble for doing a JBP News segment. Only he did it on purpose. 

Joe celebrates his 30th birthday and gets a huge surprise from his girlfriend! Too bad he already figured out the surprise beforehand. Then we talk about the SuperBowl! How about those commercials! Were the commercials a superdud?! What's with all these exclamation points?! Some of these question will be answered on the next JBP!

This week on the JBP, Michael tries to convince the gang that people like to make out with their dogs (this makes sense if you listen to the episode). Then Panda explains what going through a Catholic wedding was like. The good, the bad, and the way too much information. After that Joe asks the crowd whether they think having their wedding day coincide with a holiday (like New Years) is a good idea. There was a consensus among the crowd. What's your preference?

Happy MLK Jr. Day! Maybe one of these years JB will actually remember that it's a holiday. This week on the JBP Michael goes on a Tinder rant, we update the case about the Rolling Stone article regarding rape at UVA, and then its all about the Oscars. There is a possibility that JB makes Joe's head explode by the end of the segment. 

Yay! The Panda returns with all her glory. After a much needed Panda reunion the gang gets back to the fun stuff... and by fun stuff we really mean crappy stuff as we discuss the recent Charlie Hedbo shootings in France. Anonymous also makes a flyby appearance in this episode. So say hi really quick to them before you miss it. 

Michael is back after his brief hiatus as the gang talks about their New Years and their lack of resolutions. After that Michael talks about his trip overseas where he takes the longest walk of shame ever.

This week Joe and JB are joined by our guest Ben Pick and we clean out the last remnants of 2014. We follow up on our "The Interview" coverage (and all of that tomfoolery), we cover a mind blowing tale of incredible neglect and death that one midwest Mother is denying all guilt for, we also cover the funeral that was held for the two police officers that were gunned down in their patrol vehicle in Brooklyn. Even Dustin "Screech" Diamond, fresh out of jail from a stabbing incident, makes the holiday cleaning list. Gotta prep for New Years!

Merry Christmas Everyone! The Michael is still away, so Joe and Jabarie are bringing all of the ridiculousness they can muster. This week we have our guest Jesse on the show and the guys cover everything from Holiday Hipsters, Sony hacks, school attacks in Pakistan, to "The Interview's" release changing the face of big budget film distribution. Get jolly everyone! Let the Eggnog flow!

The last few weeks have been pretty heavy here at Brown's Town Studios. Well, this week the Michael is away so Joe and JB must play (while, coming to save the day, Legal Eagle joins the fray)! The gang dives deep into the weird recesses of the cold dark internetz to bring you hilarity with a dash of face-palm. From heady sex worker sit-ins to naked bacon armor, it's only good times from here on in.

This week on the JBP, Joe gets stuck listening to one Jazz song on repeat, and Michael's movie experience was sabotage by a bunch of kids. Then the boys dig in deep... again, as we discuss the death of Eric Garner, and Rolling Stone's retraction of the UVA rape story. This episode was quite a doozy and we ran a little over. So you get extra content for free! Yay! We are hoping in the future we can go back to talking about dolphins.  

The gang comes back from their Thanksgiving dinners full of turkey and stuffing. Ready to talk about serious things as this week a very important event happened that shook our nation to its core...

The new Star Wars movie trailer came out...

Oh yeah, and Ferguson.

To lighten to mood before our serious topic, JB talks about his trip home to celebrate Thanksgiving. Joe Also chimes in by discussing some interesting characters he met in the mist of running a 10k. After that we have a very serious topic as we try to tackle the sensitive subject of UVA being accused of enabling a culture that ignores sexual assault specifically done by fraternities. 

This week on the JBP, Joe comes back from another wedding and discusses the interesting guests he encounters. After that we talk about Philae, the French robot which landed on a comet. The discussion than expands into a mission to Mars. Would you be willing to travel to Mars, knowing that you would never come back? 

The gang gets back to their regularly scheduled program. But something very exciting happened over the weekend. The Panda got married! We discuss our shenanigans at the wedding. For our topic this week we bring in Legal Eagle to discuss a reddit thread. A women on Tinder was extremely upset over a man who wouldn't date overweight women. However, the women admitted she wouldn't date men below 5 ft 7 in. 

The celebration is here! The JBP celebrates their 200th episode in style at Penn Quarter Tavern in Washington D.C. The gang talks about their Halloween and Michael gets braces. Then get ready for a big bowl of nostalgia as the gang reminisces back on their favorite moments with the help of past and current friends of the show.

Check your scanner...the episodes...THEY ARE OVER 200!!! Well...not yet, BUT WE WILL BE SOON! That's right, our merry band of talk radio misfits are about to broadcast their 200th episode! This is probably the biggest, most important, and the booziest event we've ever thrown (so, of course, we had to do it in style). On November 2nd the Jabarie Brown Podcast will be broadcasting it's 200th episode LIVE from Penn Quarter Tavern (It's OK, I said "Hell Yeah!" too when I saw that). The party starts at 6PM and the show broadcast will begin at 7PM. Parties like this don't happen often so come out and celebrate!

No episode this week as the gang gears up for a big... something or other coming in two weeks. Why are we being so vague? Well... um... there really is no good reason. Enjoy the trollyness! 

Ben Pick subs in for Joe this week as the gang discusses an email they received from a listener about the Ferguson situation. JB then offers a mea culpa after missing Michael's play. For our topic of the week, we discuss a case where a DEA agent set up a fake facebook page in a woman’s name without her permission in order to catch criminals in a drug ring. 

This week the gang focuses on one topic that is spreading through the media like wildfire: Ebola. We discuss the Ebola outbreak in west Africa, and the first diagnosed case of Ebola in the U.S. Can we stop the spread?

This week on the JBP we have possilby our most important conversation to date. Do you cry after taking a big poop? If that conversation doesn't wet your appetiate the gang gets into a slightly more serious conversation about why the JBP decided not to talk about the Ferguson sitauation when the shooting originally happened. Do you think our reasoning was correct, or did we do our listerners a diservice by not discussing the situation sooner?  

After some more poking of the bear involving the RELM fantasy football league, and Adam Sharrock, the JBP discusses the Scotland vote to become an independent nation. What are some misconceptions about the vote? How does the vote affect the rest of the world? We then briefly discuss Sierra Leone's attempt to contain the Ebola virus by putting their citizens on lockdown. 

This week Jabarie has to defend the JBP's honor after receiving a ridiculous trade offer in the RELM fantasy football league. (Adam Sharrock, you've been officially called out.) After that we discussed the NFL's decision to ban Ray Rice indefinitely after the video of him assaulting his wife was leaked through TMZ. Finally, we update you on the Oscar Pistorius murder trial  (a South African sprinter with amputated legs, accused of murdering his girlfriend).

This week on the JBP, Michael talks about being the ring bearer as his brother gets engaged in front of over 2,000 people. JB brings up the fact that he might lose one of his legs, which means he would get to wear those cool blades thingies. Then it’s all about adult braces, apparently the JBP has a smile only a mother could love. 

Welcome back JBP Nation! This week the gang talks about an incident that happened in White Falls Arizona. A young nine year old girl accidentally shot, and fatally wounded, her shooting instructor while being taught how to use an Uzi. This reminds Jabarie of a similar incident that occurred in 2011 and the guys discuss youth shooting and gun education. After that, the gents reply to a listener who asked us to go more in depth on why America doesn't negotiate with terrorists. Is that really the case? Why not pay a ransom when you could save a life? We dive deep this week. Get your scuba gear ready!

We begin this week's episode of the JBP with fantasy football as JB decides to take a leap of faith and play again this year. For our main topic, we discuss ISIS and their decision to record the beheading of American Journalist James Foley. What do you think was the purpose of uploading the video for the world to see? What will the United States’ response be?

This week on the JBP the gang gabs about weddings as Michael went to two in one weekend.  After that we spend the rest of the show talking about the recent passing of Robin Williams, and how people react to celebrity deaths in different ways.

This week on the JBP, Jabarie gets into a rather peculiar situation inside a bathroom at a wedding, and Michael has a nightmare involving LARPING. As for our topic this week, we discussed two married cops that allegedly shot and killed their daughter’s unarmed black boyfriend. Is the race of the victim relevant in this situation? Is this situation similar to that of Trayvon Martin?

Welcome to another amazing episode of the JBP. This week Joe finds himself in a moral dilemma, and consults the guys for advice, when he makes a mistake at work. After that, we talk about the recent rash of apologies that have been going on in the media. What makes a good apology? Do you even care if a famous person apologizes for saying something insensitive? 

This week the gang talks about some interesting trends in the modern American man (and apparently there is one sex that has been slacking the past couple of decades compared to the other sex). Then JB regales us in tales about his first Phish concert, which ended up being more than he bargained for. 

This week the JBP invites a guest! Joe's partner in crime, affectionately called "Legal Eagle", brings some validity to this week’s topic. On the docket was an article about a woman in Tennessee who was charged with assault because she did meth while she was pregnant. The gang then discusses if this encroaches on a person’s individual rights to make their own decision regarding their body or if there should be laws in place to protect the health of the unborn child. 

Happy Fourth of July Everyone!!!! This week the gang celebrates Independence Day with a little JBP flare. We open the show with a heaping helping of Joe's "Evil Dead"-esque experiences in the Poconos and then discuss our favorite Fourth of July traditions. We then figure out which founding father we would be (I'm sure you can guess which one Panda is...) and end the show with a rousing discussion about constitutionality and the recent Hobby Lobby Supreme Court ruling. Yep, this show tastes like freedom.

More debauchery from Michael and Joe as Michael's little brother turns 21 this past weekend. However, there was some misunderstanding on who was suppose to get really drunk... Then we talked about the World Cup final, and what should the expectations of burgeoning soccer fans want out of USMNT... no, that does not stand for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

The boys get a bit cheeky with this episode as they play a rousing game of "Would You Rather" in which they have to choose between forever having Cheeto fingers, or a popcorn kernel stuck in the back of their throat. FYI, the last "Would You Rather" question is definitely NSFW. After that, the gang talks about a woman seeking a rich husband. Do you think marrying someone only for superficial reasons should be acceptable?  

Everyone rejoices as the Panda returns for this week’s episode. We open the show with a discussion about Tesla and their announcement that they will be releasing their patents for use by the masses. How does this change the development of electric cars moving forward? What reasons could be behind Tesla’s decision to do this?

Like the rest of America, the JBP passionately hops on the soccer bandwagon once every four years for the World Cup. However, this time we discuss the politics and corruption involved in hosting the World Cup. How is FIFA, and other non-profit organizations of similar ilk, able to be so blatantly corrupt without consequences? What can the average fan do about stopping it?

This week in Brown's Town, the gang starts off the show discussing Shakespeare (no that's not a typo). See, our show can be cultured too! Next, JB witnesses a harrowing car accident while driving on the highway. Our big topic of the week is all about Net Neutrality, as former Daily Show correspondent Jon Oliver makes the case for it's importance on his new HBO show. The gang talks about the broader impact of net neutrality and whether having access to the internet should be an inalienable right.

The boys delve into quite the serious topic this week as the recent UCSB (University of California, Santa Barbara) shooting opened a discussion about violence and oppression of women in America. But first, there is this very important discussion about which presidents are most likely to pee themselves. Don't worry, you read that correctly. 

Happy Memorial Day everyone! This week the gang gets right to it! We start out by reminiscing about old television shows which eventually leads to a conversation about what constitutes a “white” or a “black” show. After that, Michael talks about his battle with misophonia, a neurological disorder in which negative experiences (anger, flight, hatred, disgust) are triggered by specific sounds.  We end the show with a discussion about the gluten-free movement. There are some skeptics in the room, are you one of them?

Welcome back one and all to the JBP! This week the crew gets right back into the swing of things and the hilarity inevitably ensues. The show opens with the guys catching up on the general Brown's Town happenings of the previous week. We discuss the opening of the 911 Memorial in New York City and Joe and Michael lament their SECOND move from their temporary home into Michael's brand new house! JB brings up Lucid dreaming, talks briefly about his growing curiousity, and the guys chime in about their respective Lucid dreaming experiences. Finally, we dive into the recently released Nasa study that discusses the impending break down of modern global society. Not gonna lie, this show is freakin' awesome!

After a brief hiatus, the JBP is back with a vengeance! This week the gang discusses what they did on their summer vacation. Michael bought a house, Joe’s car got broken into, and JB explains why his entire car is currently occupied. For our topic de jour, we discuss Shelly Sterling. She will soon be in a battle to keep her ownership portion of the Los Angeles Clippers (that the NBA might force her to sell due to racist remarks from majority owner Donald Sterling). Do you think the NBA should be allowed to force Shelly Sterling to sell her portion of the team? Let the discussion begin!

Happy Easter and Passover to everyone! This week's JBP is in a fighting mood as the gang discusses the offensiveness of a new Veet Ad. Then, the boys take a quiz the Panda gave them to see who has the most life skills. Lastly, Michael goes on a rant about people vaguely posting Game of Thrones spoilers on Facebook. Why does Joe disagree with Michael's rant? Tune in to this week's episode of the JBP to find out!

Welcome back! Pull up a chair, and grab a glass, it's time for another round of The JBP! This past week Brown's Town was buzzing with excitement about the release of the new "Girl Meets World" trailer. So, in classic JBP fashion, the gents wax nostalgic about the resurrection of their beloved childhood show (and the potential train wreck television that might ensue). The gang also discusses the buzzing big announcement that Stephen Colbert has been newly appointed as the host of The Late Show. Somehow, our intrepid heroes focus all of this entertainment energy into a discussion about the CEO of Mozilla Corporation, Brendan Eich, and his forced resignation after its discovered that he donated money to help pass California's Proposition 8.

To update us on "What's Trending in Brown's Town" this week JB talks about PAX East (The Penny Arcade Expo), which is a convention that only focuses on video games and video game culture. After that Michael tries to win "Troll of the Year" by calling universally beloved movies overrated (even JB can't believe the words that are coming out of his mouth). The gang ends this week's show with an article about Dan Murphy, the baseball player who was mocked for taking paternity leave for the birth of his first child.

This week the entire gang is a little worse for wear after they all partied a bit too hard the night before. That being said, Joe lets us in on how he managed to pull off a clever April Fool's joke on the unsuspecting guests at his weekend gathering. Wanna know "What's Trending in Brown's Town" this week? Well, the buzz has been about a toddler that was injured from razor blades that were glued to a playground! We also found a story about a woman who crowd sourced the search for her birth mother years after she was abandoned in a Burger King bathroom. Later, the gang shifts focus to a conversation on social media and loneliness in the digital age. Has technology, and social media, impacted the way we perceive loneliness? Tune in and let us know what you think!

The Panda is back! Upon her return Michael tries to give her a new nickname, and the Panda is not enthused. For "What's Trending in Brown's Town" this week, Michael is enthusiastic about the genius of Warren Buffet's one billion dollar bracket challenge. Joe challenges the gang to a rousing game of “Who Has Lindsay Lohan Slept With,” and Panda brings up that possibly the most hated man in American died last week. JB closes it out with a harrowing tale of his St. Patrick's Day run in with the law! At first he was afraid... then he was petrified!

The boys introduced a new segment this week called "Whats Trending in Brown's Town!" where each member brings an entertaining clip or anecdote from the most popular happenings on the internet. This week's trends are about Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul being on "The Price is Right", and Miley Cyrus' new lip tattoo. For our normal segment we first talk about Barack Obama's recent appearance on the internet show "Between Two Ferns" and how politicians are adapting to new media. (Was the clip funny? Was the clip effective? What was the purpose?) We also discuss the missing passenger plane that flew out of Kuala Lumpur. We promise this addition to the news is much better than last weeks.

Welcome to a thrilling and poignant new show called the JBP News! Where we hope to be your future news provider until the end of this episode. Today's news stories includes Rachel Canning, who is suing her parents for private school tuition and future college funds after claiming that her parents abused her. After that we talk about the new pope on the block! Where the pope said some progressive statements that could possibly ruffle a lot of feathers. However, there is a shocking revelation during the episode that will bring this burgeoning news organization... The JBP News... to its knees.

The JBP has a couple of rousing topics this week! First, the gang

discusses a potential new rule in the NFL that would enforce a

15 yard penalty for using racial slurs on the field. After that we have a conversation about masculinity in modern America. The definition/perception of masculinity changes from individual to individual (and generation to generation). Something as simple as growing a beard can completely change someones perception as to whether they are masculine or not.

***PARENTAL DISCRETION ADVISED*** Is there ever a time when racial slang is acceptable? The gang discusses their views on such controversial words without trying to alienate all of their listeners. However, there is a realization that double standards do exist, and words have different meanings to different people depending on the context. How do we as a society balance the line between freedom of speech, and not being intentionally malicious towards someone of a different culture?

First, the boys mourn Team USA’s disappointing finish in Men’s and Women’s Olympic Hockey. Next, Michael and Joe listen carefully as JB tells a harrowing poop tale. After that the crew does some housekeeping and follows up on a couple of interesting stories they've mentioned in previous episodes. The death of a child resulted in prison time for a couple who believes in faith healing and refused to take the sick kid to a hospital. In addition, there was an investigation report released detailing the actions of NFL player Richie Incognito, and how he harassed fellow teammate Jonathan Martin. In recent news, Michelle Bachmann said something very Michelle Bachmanny. Enjoy the show!

While Joe spent his Valentine's Day with his SO, JB and Michael watched the hopelessly romantic movie, The Wolf of Wall Street. Next, the boys talked about their interest, or lack of interest, in the Olympics. Go USA! Then we discussed the role of a heckler at comedy shows (have you ever had to deal with a heckler before?). From there we ended up discussing the difference between constructive criticism and people who are just being mean with their critiques. How do you tell the difference between the two?
