Corey and Joel Radio Show #2: The “Eat Betsy” show
Mar 23rd
Another day another goddamn podcast.
After receiving mixed reviews for the first, Corey Hall and I quickly whipped up the 2nd installment of the “Corey and Joel Radio Show”.
This one’s at more of a relaxed pace, but we still get some quality jabs in all the while. It’s also named the “Eat Betsy Show”. Why? Listen to the last 10 minutes, but be warned that it contains some major dirty words. I’d apologize, but it ain’t even us saying them!
Topics include reactions to our first show, when news anchors marry, why I’m named Joel, when movie screenings go bad, and Pat O’Brien’s rehab.

The Corey and Joel Radio FAQ
Mar 2nd
What is the Corey and Joel Radio show?
– The show is a comedic talk show. It’s somewhat mean-spirited, but tongue-in-cheek. While the guys bust on everyone imaginable (celebrities, athletes, friends of theirs) they also take time to take shots at each other.

How often is the show produced?
– There’s a new show posted once or twice a week, depending on the hosts’ schedules. One week three shows got posted. Who knows how many they’ll do?
Do I need an iPod to listen to the show?
– Not at all. Term “podcast” was invented by Adam Curry, the ex-MTV veejay, as a way to define downloadable radio content to a portable player, ie an iPod. Of course, You don’t need an iPod to play the show, just follow the directions above to listen on your computer. You can also burn the shows to an audio CD and listen in your car or wherever. The Windows Media Player and Nero will do a nice job here. Corey and Joel actually hate the term “podcast” because it is both exclusionary and inaccurate. They like to think of it as a downloadable radio show, hence the name.
How do I subscribe to the show?
– There’s something called a podcast “aggregator” which is a piece of software that automatically will check for new episodes of the show and download them for you. iPodder, jPodder, HappyFish and iPodderX (For the Mac) are some popular aggregators. The software will also automatically put the shows on a portable player (like the iPod) so you can take it with you.
What is the RSS 2.0 feed?
– This is a file (sometimes referred to as the XML file or “feed”) that the aggregators use to download the show. It contains information about the MP3 files and the descriptions of the show.

This file is also used by the podcast index sites like Podcast Alley and podcast.net, to get the info on the show.
Why do you tell people to vote for the show on Podcast Alley?
– Corey and Joel tell people to vote on Podcast Alley because it increases the visibility of the show. Podcast Alley ranks the shows based on the number of votes each show receives.

What’s with the Toffifay?
– Corey often brings in various snacks and stuff during the show (he’s fat), and one day he brought in some Toffifay candy. Joel thought it was really funny because Toffifay is sort of an old-man candy that you never hear about anymore. They also had that annoying jingle back in the early 80s – “Toffifay it’s too good for kids!”, which is a really bad way to market candy, if you think about it. Corey also said he had to go to some out-of-the-way store to get the Toffifay, because nobody carries it anymore. After sampling the candy for the first time in a while, Joel agreed that Toffifay was an overlooked gem of treat and the guys started eating it and singing its praises on every show. The angry emails from fans started almost immediately.
Is the show really dirty?
– Not really. While there are no restrictions on this type of show as far as content, Corey and Joel are aware that some people listen to the show at work, or around their kids. They also know that someone may want to sponsor the show at some point, or offer the guys a spot on a regular broadcast radio station, where they wouldn’t be able to talk dirty. Therefore, there is a real effort not to swear, although show #8 went a long way to break that rule.
What’s with the Queensryche?
– Queensryche are a hair metal band who had their greatest success in the 1980s and early 90s. Neither Corey or Joel is a fan (although Joel attended a concert once, he was stoned), but the band’s biggest fan is friend of the show and guest PJ Butland. PJ called Corey’s voicemail after the first show to complain about the amount of racial content in the show. Corey and Joel were a bit shocked to hear that anyone listened to the show, so they tried to placate their only fan by playing snippets of Queensryche every time either one said something offensive. This started on show #2 and there was much ‘Ryche played ever since. It worked so well, that by the time that PJ was the guest on show #8, he was so relaxed that he was completely racist and offensive, just like the hosts.
How can I get a hold of the guys?
– You can email the show at email@coreyandjoelradio.com. Send us compliments, insults, show ideas, porn links, whatever. If you’re email is funny or interesting we may even read it on the air. Right now, we don’t have a voicemail or phone line, but that may be added in the future.
The original Death Pool show for 2007
Jan 4th
Here’s the link for the attempted-to-be-restored Death Pool show. It’s probably worse in the beginning than the middle or near the end, so skip around and you might just enjoy it. There’s no way we could release it like this, hence the replacement show, but we know some of you want to give it a shot so here it is:
