Episode 225 – Puffy Nuts

This week’s episode of Horseshoes & Hand Grenades brings you storytime with Stephen and Ash. Pretty much like every other show we do, but I can promise that you’ll love this one. It involves genitals…also like every other show we ever do. Okay, this episode is really like every other show that we do, but way more awesome because this is Episode 225! That’s a pretty big one. If that episode number was made up of pennies, I would have almost enough for a gallon of gas. Or I would have MORE than enough for a soda out of a vending machine. See, this episode is important. LISTEN!

Factoid of the Week
In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and quarts. So in old England, when customers got unruly, the bartender would yell at them to mind their own pints and quarts and settle down. It’s where we get the phrase “mind your P’s and Q’s.”

Episode 224 – Twenty Two Fo’

So, 2012 has gotten off to a rocky start for some people (most people I’ve talked to actually). Even I have been affected by the evil start of the last year of the world. One would think, however, that the LAST year anyone would ever be alive would be awesome by default. It’s the last year to get that bucket list accomplished, the last year to sleep with your bosses wife, the last year to bitch slap that one chick at the office. So, HnH has decided to tell 2012 to DIAF. Instead, we are prolonging 2011. 2011 was a good year. From now on… 2012 will be like the 13th floor in an elevator. WE DONT MENTION IT! (except maybe in the title >_> )

Episode 223 – Anticipatory Accent

Todays episode is brought to you by Panda Poo, Detoxing, Juice Feasting, and mothers who fake their daughters deaths to stay in Costa Ricca for an extra week and a half. It’s also brought to you by me not having anything to write and trying desperately to come up with something to fill up some of this white space. Ok, seriously, just watch the show… or listen to it. Do SOMETHING to it. WHITE SPACE GO AWAY>123

The world’s largest snowflake was 38 cm wide and 20cm thick and was found at Fort Keogh, Montana on January 28, 1887.

Episode 222 – Apocalypse Soon!

First show of the APOCALYPSE YEAR!? I’d say it’s been a fantastic year so far. WVU bloody well crushed Clemson (ahahahah win), I haven’t had a day of work yet due to snow, and I finally found my way back to the gym. This is the resolution show… where we read the resolutions that you guys have made… and probably will not keep :P Stephen and I also add what we have planned for the next year. Mostly, we hope people keep being stupid so we can tell you guys about it every Thursday night at 8pm EST :D

Factoid of the Week
The tradition of women proposing to men on leap year day dates all the way back to 5th century Ireland.
In 1288 Queen Margret of Scotland ordered that any man who was proposed to on Leap Year’s Day and refused the proposal could be fined either a kiss, a silk dress, or a pair of gloves that were to be given to the rejected woman. So a woman, who was extremely unpopular could fund her entire wardrobe by proposing to a lot of men she knew would refuse her.
