The CORNDOWN pt 286: with Woody Harrelson as Woody Boyd
This CORNDOWN kinda sucks. I start off losing my phone, wallet, keys, and even the car. Shopping carts keep getting tangled, sucking in keys, or smashing into things, with wastedmemory stepping in to make it even worse by trying to disengage buggies and change the batteries before they get sucked into my car. Also I … Read moreThe CORNDOWN pt 286: with Woody Harrelson as Woody Boyd
The CORNDOWN pt 285: with Richard Dean Anderson as Dr. Jeff Webber

From long ones to corrupt fry cooks to a full-on burger school interaction. Things shift when I start pushing buttons about … Read moreThe CORNDOWN pt 285: with Richard Dean Anderson as Dr. Jeff Webber
The CORNDOWN pt 284: with Will Ferrell as Gordon Vanderkruik
On this CORNDOWN I get started talking about the hassle of maintaining one’s own hotel rooms and how much money it seems to pull right out of my own pocket, with wastedmemory chiming in about his own mix-ups at a couple of different and/or same places. We drift into some strange normal sounding calls, where … Read moreThe CORNDOWN pt 284: with Will Ferrell as Gordon Vanderkruik
The CORNDOWN pt 283: with Christopher Hewett as Lynn Belvedere
This one is a slow start with failed boat houseguest problems, there’s talk of medical violence, and appreciation comes across in uncomfortable ways. Eventually we get going when food turns up stuffed in shoes, pockets, even wallets. There’s a slight obsession with stoves and bricks cooking eggs. Then Denny’s gets some classic bribes, we run … Read moreThe CORNDOWN pt 283: with Christopher Hewett as Lynn Belvedere
The CORNDOWN pt 282: with Irina Gorovaia as Margot Tenenbaum
In this episode luggage bags get grabbed, cars seized, hotel rooms snatched up, even food is being treated like it doesn’t belong to you. There are calls about future reservations, with people talking, conversating, chatting and confusing the front desk. Insurance rates get bumped, a smoke alarm goes off, and someone promises me this idea … Read moreThe CORNDOWN pt 282: with Irina Gorovaia as Margot Tenenbaum
The CORNDOWN pt 281: with John Travolta as Tod Lubitch
This episode has food mistakes like fingernails ripped out, hair eaten, roofing nails swallowed, even takeout containers consumed. Broken tools and food that won’t heat or get wet bleed into static bananas and political Tesla disputes. A couple floors get stepped on. Identity theft spreads through hotels and mirrors, while accounts close, tests fail, and … Read moreThe CORNDOWN pt 281: with John Travolta as Tod Lubitch
The CORNDOWN pt 280: with James Franco as Alien
This CORNDOWN kicks off with basic skills missing. I can’t read, wasted can’t ride a bike, and it spirals into family silence and awkward callback requests. People lurk by windows, sometimes sipping coffee, sometimes plotting, while magnetic food keeps reappearing. There’s car insurance drama at a Denny’s, elevator bites, and windows breaking in normal revenge … Read moreThe CORNDOWN pt 280: with James Franco as Alien
The CORNDOWN pt 279: with Terry Gene Bollea as Hulk Hogan
This one feels like a crime scene slowly unraveling in a Denny’s. It starts with evidence bags piling up, with Fabian schemes in the background, and suspicious amounts of high numbers of teeth-related reports coming in. All I know is, Denny’s is at the heart of it all. Soups and slams getting mixed or unmixed, … Read moreThe CORNDOWN pt 279: with Terry Gene Bollea as Hulk Hogan
The CORNDOWN pt 278: with Cam Clarke as Mac
This set starts with sandwiches getting painted yellow. It moves into conflict inside the CD players, which probably shouldn’t cause that much tension unless the employee is flirting. Then sandwiches take over. There’s a lot of confusion: who’s touching them, whose sandwich it even is, whether they’re being shared, stolen, burned, or just sat on. … Read moreThe CORNDOWN pt 278: with Cam Clarke as Mac
The CORNDOWN pt 277: with Alden Ehrenreich as Han Solo
This CORNDOWN spins out of control fast, starting with employees being used,possibly emotionally or logistically. That spirals into apple smoking, which feels both literal and like a stand-in for some deeper, metaphorical meaning. But it’s just an apple. There’s tension with police, as usual, something about raspberries being missing, and a whole subplot around someone … Read moreThe CORNDOWN pt 277: with Alden Ehrenreich as Han Solo
