Description
“What am I?” The podcast trudges on through oblivion. Gone are the days of Jeff and Spencer’s asinine jokery, That Happens chronicles the slow deconstruction of the man Patton Oswalt once hailed as having “incredible comedic timing.” Ranting uninterrupted about daily political minutia or tiktok trends, Spencer occasionally breaks down and questions his life, podcast, and reality itself, as Kevin smiles, pained, trying to pull the show back onto the rails with a listener question or quick-fire rhetorical premise. What was is gone, and what’s left is bitter, battery acid-flavored reality. That Happens.

No One Can Know About This hosts Jeff Eckman and Ryan Kasmiskie are back again to discuss what may be Evangelion's most budget conscious episode so far. Can a show pull off a clip show only 14 episodes in, or is this a framing device for something deeper? Does the show's sense of conveying the emotional impact and loss of a sense of self hold up? Kevin does a book report on the first episode of Death Note, too.

Great episode, something different is always worth it in one way or another. Keep up the good work
😂 Full Spencer Face
😱 Only just noticed that Spencer's head is bigger in the picture. It's happening, IT'S HAPPENING!!!
Spencer & Mira should do more together, great dynamic, can she replace Jeff? 😂
😂 Excellent work 👍 Video link: https://thathappenspod.com/2023/04/26/episode-101-impugning-your-plumbing-skills/
Excellent anniversary episode, happy belated 100! Always love me some Brandon Johnson. Great video & singing from Spencer at the end https://thathappenspod.com/2023/04/09/episode-100-a-lot-of-yall-be-fing-in-these-cars/
first 16 minutes or so is repeated
You should do a Twitter character creator episode, a Facebook character creator episode, and throw a a livecast/livestream Castbox /YouTube character creator episode. Throw them into your D&D pile for "special appearances" and Soo more D&D :-)
Needs a new engineer and editor. The audio mistakes keep me away. Hearing Kevin breathing or chewing because he didn't mute his own channel is infuriating.
https://thathappenspod.com/2021/11/16/video-episode-35-scuttlejabber/ If you get the chance, watch this episode instead of just listening. Love it. ✌️😂
I really adore this. Utterly charming stuff. Disparate souls with the sweetest harmony. A joy.
2nd week in a row you left the d&d music randomly on the timeline and it drowned out a bunch of Jeff and Spencer's chat.
hey is it happening yet? is it happening ?
hoorah and hooray!
