The Comic Book Podcast Your Momma Warned You About. It's a sick week for Chronic Insomnia. Mike has some sort of throat locust and can barely talk, so the show is going to take a break this week. However in lieu of a new show, we figured you might like to hear an older show Ryan and I both love. It's also relevant since the new Star Trek movie comes out this next week on DVD. Here is how the original description of the show went back on May 12th, 2009: Poop, Urine and Phlegm are all vacant from this episode of Chronic Insomnia. What's gotten into us lately? Listen closely as we carefully review the new Star Trek movie in quite a lot of detail. We even argue a little bit about it. This week Mike just won't shut up about his Star Trek boner. We have some new friends in Canada to talk about and things get a little out of hand when Ryan talks about his deodorant of choice. Mike brings up the golfing experience from last Tuesday and we figure out what Ryan actually shot. How great does Ryan think he is at Golf, well tune in to find out. Listen closely for smatterings of Star Trek throughout this weeks show. Also see if you can tell who's voice is nearly blown out by the end of this weeks episode. Enjoy the show and we love the all of you! We hope you enjoy a blast from the past. Also check out our sister show at Where Monsters Dwell. The Chronic Crew

Download and find out what book he wants to pick out curtains with. Is our love affair with Where Monsters Dwell completely burned out? Does Mike think he could take Remy in a arm wrestling match, well not really, but it is discussed. Ryan thinks Remy could take out the average UFC fighter and yes that means Kimbo Slice.

Chronic Insomnia - The Worlds Worst Comic Book Podcast. Saving the world one poop joke at a time. This week Ryan is coming down from a terrible sickness and we aren't too sure how the show is going to go. Alas my dear friends the show was totally awesome to record and it felt good once we were done with it. Ryan gets his drink on and Mike just steers the ship and lets Ryan run wild. We talk about the new internet TV show "Cerebus" and realize it's going to be a huge pile of feces. Is George R.R. Martin ever going to finish "A Song Of Fire And Ice?" Until then we get to enjoy the HBO series currently filming in Ireland. Ryan gets pissed off at Tyrese Gibson and his 17 inch member.

Tue, 29 Sep 2009 09:12:00 +0000

Chronic Insomnia - The Worlds Worst Comic Book Podcast. Saving the world one poop joke at a time. Issue # 110. This week is a little different here at Chronic Insomnia. Ryan was away at the cabin all weekend and he drank copious amounts of alcohol, so that left him unable to prepare for the show. We decided to switch things up this week; first we review of one of our favorite comic books, and then we have a long discussion of the fan favorite TV show, Smallville. Friday was the "Smallville" season 9 opener and this week we talk almost exclusively about that show. Do we still loath the idea of a superman with "no tights, no flights"? Tune in this week and find out. Ryan and Mike discuss the final Giant Size Old Man Logan comic book which finally came out last Wednesday. It's a big show with Ryan complaining of extreme chest pains and his current software upgrade. Mike, the current Quincy Jones of podcasting, takes a break from all the technical stuff and just lets this weeks show flow throughout the night. Stay tuned at the end of the show for a surprise song by the best singer in the world, Dennis Twat. Check out our good friends at Where Monsters Dwell. We love those damn Canadians. If some of you missed it, Mike was on the Where Monsters Dwell show last week for over 30 minutes. Check out that show if you're interested to see Mike make a fool of himself. It's on the WMD website, so go and check out Remy, Mike, Erin and Red Shirt Ryan on CHSR college radio. We can also be found on the Comics Podcast Network. We love the all of you! The Chronic Crew

Issue # 108 The Worlds Biggest D-Bag!

Tue, 15 Sep 2009 09:30:00 +0000

Check out this weeks show as we discuss Deadpool # 15 and Irredeemable Volume 1. Could this be Daniel Ways coming out party for Deadpool? Has Mark Waid finally lost his mind and wrote a book that's so disturbing even we have some trouble with it? Well not really, but Irredeemable Volume 1 is a pretty interesting story. One of us has gotten a software upgrade to version 1.5 and we're finding it's not as stable as we would like it to be. We won an award for best radio program and a giant douche bag ruins our special moment. Download now and find out the details. Is this the last Chronic Insomnia Show? Well tune in to find out.

In this episode: Ryan's mid-life crisis now comes with limited time offer! Quincy dazzles with his knowledge of Canada in Pop Quiz! The Omnitron 6000 turns on its masters!

Ryan On a side note, during the Pop Quiz section of the show I was asked about my knowledge of World War Two and how Canada was involved and I am a moron. I was wrong and I am man enough to admit that. My grandfather had gigantic balls just like the Canadians. The sad thing is that I am French Canadian as you can tell by my last name. So go Canadians, I love the all of you. Michael

Chronic Insomnia - The Worlds Worst Comic Book Podcast. We're saving the world one poop joke at a time. What kind of cream is Ryan using on his skin that could give him bloody stool? Tune in and find out. What secret project is Mike working on that he won't discuss? Or will he? Is Remy, from Where Monsters Dwell, really mad at us for using his audio bits on our show? Do we refrain from using audio bits again...well not really. We both think Manatee Weight Loss 2009 is in the bag and we are counting the days until we get our 8x10 glossy.

We Love The All Of You! The Chronic Crew

Issue # 102 A 17 Inch Fat Cobra?

Tue, 28 Jul 2009 03:37:00 +0000

The Worlds Worst Comic Book Podcast. Interested in the latest news coming out of the San Diego ComiCon? Neither are we. Although we are sort of obligated to touch on some CCI items, like Marvel's acquisition of Miracle Man. Which is actually pretty exciting. Serious. More importantly, we delve into the less well known but certainly more lethal Brooklyn Center ComicCon. It's the sort of hard hitting Eisner nominated journalism you've come to expect from us. All this and a Great Moment in Fantasy featuring a 17 inch Fat Cobra? It's almost enough Chronic goodness to compensate for the foul recycled cloud of onion ring shart spray lurking in the studio. Almost. Will Ryan's cilia recover for next weeks show, tune in and find out. Check out our friends at Where Monsters Dwell and Comic Book Queers and don't forget they don't really endorse us because we're vulgarians. We love the all of you. The Chronic Crew

Issue # 101 Relax, it's only DNA!

Tue, 21 Jul 2009 03:29:00 +0000

Chronic Insomnia - The Worlds Worst Comic Book Podcast. Issue # 101. Ryan's reading this book, some of you may have heard of it, it's called "Y The Last Man" and go figure, he likes it. Manatee Weight Loss 2009 continues with a minor setback for one of us. Can Ryan return to the treadmill without exploding his shins? Tune in to find out. It's another great issue of Chronic Insomnia as we talk about our friends in Canada and Chicago, our new favorite shows, Where Monsters Dwell and Comic Book Queers. http://www.comicbookqueers.com/ http://wheremonstersdwell.ca/ We love the all of you. Michael

Issue # 100 Need We Say More?

Tue, 14 Jul 2009 07:58:00 +0000

Chronic Insomnia - The Worlds Worst Comic Book Podcast brings you it's 100th episode extravaganza. It's another milestone here at Chronic Insomnia. We'd like to express our gratitude to all our listeners for sticking in there for the past 100 shows. It's been a great ride and we hope you've enjoyed it as much as we have. This is also the longest show we have ever done so you're very welcome. We start the show in an arena and suddenly lose our audience or we just get lazy and forget to add the crowd effects in the background, I guess it's all up to personal interpretation anyways. This week Ryan's not smashed out of his mind on beer and White Russians, so we've got that going for us. Ryan brings out his ladies man speech and show's us all why he's still looking for that special lady friend. Some might say he's got some issues with the opposite sex, but you didn't hear that from me. We touch, not near briefly enough, on "Wednesday Comics" and how much Mike loves "Preacher". Mike complains about his tit hurting and Ryan grills him on why he let's people constantly tug on this man jugs. Our good friends at "Where Monsters Dwell" run into more problems with radio stations and mean women. Have we somehow jinxed them? Manatee Weight Loss 2009 is in full effect and we find out which one of us has actually gained weight in the past week. Could it be the half and half and the liquor from last week? Or is one of the hosts actually building up some muscle? Download and find out. We'll be back for another 100, 200 or 300 shows. We thank you from the bottom of our cold dark hearts for sticking with us through all the crap and we hope to have you sticking around for much much more. We Love The All Of You! Michael

Issue # 99.5 Grilled Manatee With Sauce

Tue, 07 Jul 2009 12:22:00 +0000

Chronic Insomnia - The worlds worst comic book podcast brings you... Episode # 99.5 Grilled Manatee With Sauce! For tonight's menu, may I recommend a completely toasted Manatee with sauce? Way, way, way, WAY too much sauce? Before the show I had a beer or ten and then mixed myself a couple of double White Russians as we sat down to record. And well...you're about to hear the results. I honestly don't remember that much of what was said. (making this introduction a bit of a challenge) Pretty sure that I couldn't speak straight, see straight, or complete a coherent thought. I do remember that Quincy stopped the tape after the first thirty minutes because he couldn't take it any more, it was that bad. (this is unprecedented in the history of the show, oddly enough, our standards are quite low around here) And he said to me "You've got to pick it up, man. You're slobbering out blahblahbleeebloooblaah and I can't understand you. Let's do it again with some ENERGY, dude!" And I'm thinking to myself, "If I had any energy, I'd be walking over to that wash basin and projectile vomiting bratwurst into it." Which I eventually did. This will be the only podcast you listen to this week that includes an obese white man chucking bratwurst and White Russians into a wash basin, I'd wager. You're welcome. Also included: Manatee Weight Loss 09! Congratulations to Remy on his new baby girl! Hell's Kitchen turns to lead to gold with some awesome Daredevil buys in Market Spotlight! And a bunch more stuff that I have no recollection of at all! - Ryan

Issue # 99 Two Fat Sows?

Tue, 30 Jun 2009 17:54:00 +0000

Chances are if you are listening to this show you have heard our lack luster 2nd Anniversary show and we want to thank you for sticking around. Issue # 99 comes on the eve of our greatest achievement. Our 2nd anniversary show might have meant something on a calendar, but the 100th show is going to be that much more special. This week Ryan talks about a prostitute who works for food. Mike discusses his shame over Quiet Riots commercial success and overall we talk a lot about Comic Books, go figure. We continue our ongoing crossover with our friends from the Canadian radio show "Where Monsters Dwell". Will Ryan's "Impalement" prove to be too much for his fat bloated body? Mike continues to lose weight at a snails pace, or has he? Tune in to find out. Check out our new intro song written and performed by Mike himself. It might not be the next "Scenes From an Italian Restaurant" but it's still a song, so he's got that going for him. Check out our blog here at: http://chronicinsomniashow.blogspot.com Check out our friends at: http://wheremonstersdwell.ca/ We love the all of you. Michael

Issue # 98 2nd Anniversary Special!

Tue, 23 Jun 2009 09:56:00 +0000

Chronic Insomnia - Episode # 98 2nd anniversary special! How does the World's Worst Comic Book Podcast celebrate two years of existence? By producing the worst show in its history, of course! Full disclosure? This one got away from us. Somewhere in this disjointed mess are a few laughs and some closet classic bits not heard since year one. And we saved comics last week in "Epic Fail", so we get a mulligan, right? Please? In this episode: Manatee Weight Loss 2009 suffers a catastrophic setback! Robert Kirkman hits Marvel where it hurts! Chew - its not just for rednecks any more! Ryan's first crack at "Pop Quiz"! Classic Chronic Bits from the days of yore! Ryan Do you ever feel as though you've ridden in on a short bus? This weeks show is a testament to how derailed things can get when Ryan and I both suffer from the effects of "Chronic Insomnia". Ryan's had four hours of sleep and I've been sleeping five hours a night for the past six years. At some point things have got to give and with this weeks show we finally hear that one thing snap. It falls with a dull thud and spins our once timed and segmented show into something which makes very little sense. We play a game of "fake porn title or not" which had little to no research involved with it, but it was still fun. Ryan was nearly perfect in knowing which ones I made up and which ones I found online. Enjoy the show and we love the all of you? Michael

Issue # 97 Epic Fail?

Tue, 16 Jun 2009 03:04:00 +0000

This week marks a landmark in Chronic Insomnia history. Well actually it really doesn't. It's a normal week for us and we get to a lot of things comic book related. Is Captain America #600 really worth the wait? Well we tell you all about it. Manatee Weight Loss is still in full swing and tonight we find out just how much more Ryan has lost in the past week. Is our Chia Shrek in danger of being taken away from us by some Canadian? I think not. Ryan's off to a big start and Remy's eating Chocolate Pop Tarts. Michael takes another quiz that Ryan came up with. This time it's on our greatest American Hero, Captain America. How will Mike do? Well download the show and find out. Our sponsor is back with a huge contract and some great new commercials for us to run on our show. Check out our new friends at Where Monsters Dwell and support their show. Honestly it's better than ours and because we're all one big happy podcasting family. http://wheremonstersdwell.ca/ Check out our blog here at : http://chronicinsomniashow.blogspot.com/ We love the all of you. Michael

Issue # 96 Save The Cheerleader, Shave The Gunt!

Tue, 09 Jun 2009 03:45:00 +0000

Do we have secret audio of David Carradine in his last few moments of life? I think we’ll let you decide. Mike thinks of a new way that Ryan can lose an extra few pounds by shaving a personal part of his body. But if Ryan can’t reach who’s gonna help him out? Listen and find out. We are a little off the rails this week and things get even more messy as we break out the shaver. This week is some kind of awesome as far we are concerned. Listen how much we love “Where Monsters Dwell” and how much Ryan wants to beat Remy in this years “Manatee Weight Loss Challenge”. Will Remy get the Chia Pet? I guess we’re going to find out in a few months. Michael

Issue # 95 "Are You There God? It's Me Manatee"

Tue, 02 Jun 2009 09:44:00 +0000

This week on Chronic Insomnia we have the visitor of visitors stop by and give us an explanation as to what he's been doing these past eons. Near the end of the interview we win him over with our charm and sophistication and he adds us to his Facebook page. He's a rather popular person. Ryan gets the gauntlet thrown down to him by Remy from "Where Monsters Dwell" and he accepts the challenge. We offer up a huge prize if Remy ends up beating him by Labor Day. Or Labour Day for those of you in Canada. Mike has troubles with his bowels AGAIN, isn't this getting old? Well it would get old to normal people, but since we are 12 years old mentally, it's still pretty damn disgusting and funny. We can't help our vulgarity on this weeks show. Check out the end of the show this week for a top secret REDUX of our semi-famous Star Wars bit. Check out our blog here at: http://chronicinsomniashow.blogspot.com You can also check out our new RELIABLE home here at: http://chronicinsomnia.podbean.com/ Please change your automatic download to the new site whenever you can. At some point we are going to totally give up on MyPodcast.com, but for now we will continue to use both services in order to facilitate ALL of our listeners. We love the all of you. Michael

Issue # 94 The Man Butter Show

Tue, 26 May 2009 09:55:00 +0000

Chronic Insomnia has moved to a pay site due the lack of service MyPodcast.com pays it's customers. We have been unable to upload a show for nearly 12 days with NO RESPONSE from the management at MyPodcast.com. Please check out http://chronicinsomnia.podbean.com/ and switch your subscriptions and or downloads to the new site. We will continue to use MyPodcast.com for the near future since it is free and costs us nothing to keep it going. However if you have a problem with MyPodcast.com and still want to get our show go to http://chronicinsomnia.podbean.com/ and you will find the site WORKING. We've had enough of MyPodcast.com and so should ALL of it's podcasters. We just haven't had enough of that most famous of nectars, so we had to record another show on the DNA you clean up with a T-Shirt. So grab your black light and check for stains on your roommates sheets, it's time for another sophisticated and vulgar episode of Chronic Insomnia. Check out our new sponsor, Jizaflow. It's a miracle they came on board at the right moment, especially since we had our mouths open at that very moment. So we took the shot right in the eye and welcomed them to our show. Also check out Ryan's new song called, "Never gonna spit you out". It's the perfect song to play to your shy and humble lover. Let's spread the man butter around and get down to the salty brine and talk about comic books. The Chronic Crew

Issue # 93 The Jizm Files

Tue, 26 May 2009 09:46:00 +0000

How gross can we get this week? Well pretty gross actually. We're back to our sophisticated and stylish ways. It's time for us to prove once again that we are the "podcast your momma warned you about." Don't let the title fool you, it is that disgusting. Mike asks Ryan the hard hitting question and we get an honest response. What do Bert and Ernie do when they aren't entertaining the youth of America? We also got our hands on a rare episode of the original Star Trek series when Roddenberry tried his hand at a Marvel cross-over. It didn't work out so well for all involved. We've eaten all the pineapple we can to cut down on the acidity, but we still come off as a little fishy tasting. So hold the back of your own head and get ready for a giant load of a show. We love the all of you. We want to wish our friends at "Where Monsters Dwell" a safe return to the radio in Canada. Good luck! The Chronic Crew PS - Check out our new home here at http://chronicinsomnia.podbean.com/ We've given up on MYPODCAST.COM complete and have decided to go to a more reliable site to host our podcast. Please convert or switch your download/subscription to the NEW site at Podbean. Thank you so much, The Chronic Crew

ATTENTION! Last Years Star Trek Special! Just because we can and because we love the new Star Trek movie, we are going to re-submit our 1st annual Star Trek episode for your listening pleasure.

Issue # 92 Beam Us Up Dammit!

Tue, 12 May 2009 08:40:00 +0000

Poop, Urine and Phlegm are all vacant from this episode of Chronic Insomnia. What's gotten into us lately? Listen closely as we carefully review the new Star Trek movie in quite a lot of detail. We even argue a little bit about it. This week Mike just won't shut up about his Star Trek boner. We have some new friends in Canada to talk about and things get a little out of hand when Ryan talks about his deodorant of choice. Mike brings up the golfing experience from last Tuesday and we figure out what Ryan actually shot. How great does Ryan think he is at Golf, well tune in to find out. Listen closely for smatterings of Star Trek throughout this weeks show. Also see if you can tell who's voice is nearly blown out by the end of this weeks episode. Enjoy the show and we love the all of you! Check out Mikes nearly famous review on the blog here at: http://chronicinsomniashow.blogspot.com The Chronic Crew

Issue # 91 Is Wolverine a Douche Bag?

Tue, 05 May 2009 09:29:00 +0000

X-Men Origins: Wolverine gets the Chronic treatment. Details on a midnight movie premiere that just barely happened! Details on what should happen to comic "fans" who can't tell the difference between Spider-Man and Deadpool! The Chronic Crew gives a brief rundown of Free Comic Book Day (at least the half that wasn't golfing) and Ryan bores everyone to salty tears with an analysis of the latest Diamond sales data. Also: Superman co-creator Joe Shuster publishes fetish art of Lois Lane taking a bullwhip to Clark Kent - and then the story gets WEIRD. You can't make this stuff up, folks, and it's all in Craig Yoe's new book "Secret Identity"! There is more elegeance and sophistication in this episode than we're used to, so we decided to tack on an appropriately juvenile Chronic Classic to the end: "Harry Goes to the Doctor". Keep in touch with your Chronic Friends at thechroniccrew@gmail.com We love you all and remember to go out and see Star Trek this next weekend, it's gonna be good. http://chronicinsomniashow.blogspot.com/ The Chronic Crew
