Thank you to my long-time friends and co-hosts, Ron Babcock and Rucka Rucka Ali. Ron has been an incredible friend over the years and has genuinely improved my life in countless non-trivial ways.

And speaking of great friends and co-hosts, thank you to Rucka Rucka Ali, who makes it back for this final episode. Rucka is a powerhouse of reason, principal and intellect, as well as a genuinely good person. Rucka has also improved my life in significant, non-trivial ways, from encouraging me to work harder, to challenging my world views. He’s supported me on and off the air and I couldn’t be more grateful for his friendship and ball-busting. Rucka rides hard because he cares and I’m proud to call him my friend. I couldn’t have asked for two better people to work with.Thank you to Mikey Bolts, audio engineer and all-around good guy! I love Mikey and so do you. I’m humbled by his talent.

Episode #138 - What's the most perfect thing about Maddox?

Debate starts at: 18:05. What’s the goofiest, dumbass regional food? Photographer and writer Igor joins Kirk Wilcox, Ron and I for the debate. Ron brings in a sleeper hit from the mid-west: the Juicy Lucy. Part diarrhea, part second base, it’s a sandwich that will impress nobody. Igor’s pick is an all-time Philly classic: the cheesesteak sandwich. Though I’d go a step further and say that the cheese isn’t the worst part of the meal, it’s the mediocrity. Kirk goes hard on Chinese food and Gyros and I bring in a shitty Utah condiment: “fry sauce,” which isn’t a thing.

Episode #137 - WHAT'S THE GOOFIEST, DUMBASS REGIONAL FOOD?

Kirk Wilcox

TJ Peters

Debate starts at: 3:54. Are fans too entitled? TJ Peters joins Kirk Wilcox for the debate this week. With the conclusion of Game of Thrones and the uproar over the new Sonic design, it begs the question: are fans too entitled? How much can we expect our creators to cater to our demands? The answer is ZERO. But some people on this show don’t agree, and those people have names that don’t start with ’M' and end in ‘addox.’ Plus I inadvertently unveil my new Daddox shirt, and we go down the bizarre world of Space Jam mashups at the tail end of this episode.

Episode #135 - Are fans too entitled? With TJ Peters, Kirk Wilcox

Debate starts at: 6:31. Is universal basic income for pinko commie dipshits? First-time guest Brad joins Kirk Wilcox, Ron and I for the debate about “Universal Basic Income” (UBI). The theory is that as technology progresses and replaces traditional jobs for humans (self-checkout cashiers, automated fast food cooks, kiosks, etc), unemployment would go up and traditional jobs would become obsolete. So some politicians have proposed a basic income level that every citizen would get every month. Beyond your UBI, you’d be able to work, but your income would be taxed at 50%. Good idea? Bad idea? Kirk had an interesting idea: pass UBI but eliminate all other government programs (universal healthcare, etc).

Bradley Laborman

Debate starts at: 5:03. What’s the corniest, dipshit wish? Bradley Laborman joins us for the debate this week. Ron and Bradley team up in a tag-team duo that I describe as “simple.” These guys shit all over me for wanting to be immortal just because I might end up like some weird bisexual vampire, as one does when they become immortal. Plus I simmer down the problem with waffles to its essence: 10% of the bites have 90% of the butter.

Dia Frampton

This week I'm joined by the brilliant singer-songwriter Dia Frampton (https://twitter.com/DiaFramps), runner-up from "The Voice." Here's her first performance from that show:	https://www.youtube.com/embed/-ohWBxX_YWg	You can pre-order her new album here: http://www.diamusic.net/. She joined us this week to talk about music streaming, the Ohio State stabbing, bubonic plague and #pizzagate. But perhaps most notably, like all geniuses, she hails from my home state of Utah. We also discussed how Utah's coffee shops kick ass for some reason.

Special thanks to Connor for sharing that with us. Plus, we round things out with a pizzagate recap.

Episode #27 - Dia Frampton, Is Streaming For Suckers, Rucka, OSU Stabbing, #Pizzagate, Giftbag

Anita Sarkeesian

Should white identity exist? We're joined by a very special in-studio guest, all the way from London, Sargon of Akkad (https://twitter.com/Sargon_of_Akkad)! Sargon is an Anti-Identitarian YouTuber and an outspoken critic of cultural politics. He had a run in with Anita Sarkeesian at Vidcon where she called him a "SHIT HEAD" from the podium while he was in the audience with our own Rucka. Sargon was kind enough to come on our show to discuss it hours after it happened! This is one of the longest episodes we've ever recorded and an absolutely fascinating debate. The encounter with Anita starts around 11:39, and the debate about white identity starts around 53:52.

Should white identity exist? We're joined by a very special in-studio guest, all the way from London, Sargon of Akkad (<a href="https://twitter.com/Sargon_of_Akkad)!" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/Sargon_of_Akkad)!</a> Sargon is an Anti-Identitarian YouTuber and an outspoken critic of cultural politics. He had a run in with Anita Sarkeesian at Vidcon where she called him a "SHIT HEAD" from the podium while he was in the audience with our own Rucka. Sargon was kind enough to come on our show to discuss it hours after it happened! This is one of the longest episodes we've ever recorded and an absolutely fascinating debate. The encounter with Anita starts around 11:39, and the debate about white identity starts around 53:52.

Episode #33 - Chris Ray Gun, Nintendo Switch, Rucka, Mikey Bolts, Swastika Boots, Prison Smuggler

Jesse P-S

Bill Nye

Payton Manning

Who is the biggest douchebag in the universe? And why is it U2's Bono? Jesse P-S (https://madcastmedia.com/shows/cringevscringe/) joins us this week for our first-ever BAG-OFF. We learn in this episode that Jesse has met Bill Nye in person not once, but twice, as well as U2's Bono and even Merriam Webster. Jesse's story of meeting Bill Nye may be one of the most incredible celebrity encounters we've ever heard. Mikey Bolts (https://twitter.com/MikeyBolts) brings in the man with tbe biggest forehead in the universe, Payton Manning, and Rucka (https://www.youtube.com/user/itsRucka) brings in the notorious Gandhi. I round out the debate with a special blend of douche, U2's Bono, who's known first for being a douchebag and second as a musician.A note about the audio quality on this episode: I rarely pull back the curtains, but this episode was delayed because it was edited together using mix-down tracks that we usually only use for backups. Unfortunately, none of the mixdown tracks had all of the data we needed, so this episode was painstakingly combined using 8 different audio tracks + video (details below). The video won't always sync up to the audio, so this episode's video feed won't be made public, but you can watch it here. A lot of people have expressed interest in paying for weekly video feeds, so that may be coming in the future. Until then, enjoy:https://youtu.be/Jyzo3_3OX4sBonus episode #2 is finally out, you can purchase it from iTunes (https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/maddox-vs-the-universe-2/id1233454674), Amazon (http://amzn.to/2qWhDCQ) and our own website:https://madcastmedia.com/shows/maddoxvsuniverse/2/Also, a big you're-welcome to everyone who pre-ordered my book: F*CK WHALES: Petty Essays from a Brilliant Mind.

The episode edits are usually not this complex. In spite of all the technical difficulties, the episode still sounds pretty decent:https://rss.madcastmedia.com/bestdebate/49/e49_bestdebate_edits_large.jpgAnd here's the jerkoff "running" a marathon in a gorilla suit.

Episode #49 - The biggest douchebag in the universe, Jesse P-S, Rucka, Mikey, Gandhi, Bill Nye, Payton Manning, Bono

This week's debate: IS HOOKUP CULTURE RUINING DATING?Our guest this week is a comedian and online juggernaut, Dreadmere (https://www.instagram.com/dreadmere/). In a twist most fans probably wouldn't have seen coming, Dreadmere was also a former Vine star, on the former social network Vine. I make things awkward with my tactful generalizations. We get into the meat and potatoes of the debate this week, which is about whether or not hookup culture is ruining dating. Dreadmere has a considerable amount of practical dating advice and a point of view you might not expect.https://rss.madcastmedia.com/bestdebate/36/e36_crew.jpgWe've been teasing this for a while now, but the first bonus episode is finally coming: Maddox vs The Universe. It's legitimately one of the best episodes we've ever recorded and it'll be available on iTunes, Amazon and our own website. This episode was recorded months ago and still has our old audio engineer, Sean, on it. Check this page for updates:https://madcastmedia.com/shows/maddoxvsuniverse/1/We've got Mikey Bolts (https://twitter.com/MikeyBolts) on audio and Rucka (https://www.youtube.com/user/itsRucka) is up for a promotion. Does he deserve it? You decide by voting this week. And speaking of Rucka, his new single, "Grab America by the Pussy" (https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/grab-america-by-pussy-single/id1202719399) is out and it's incredible, check it out here: Grab America by the Pussy - iTunes singleFinally we round out this episode with a guy who has a giant tumor that he was told was "just fat," and a cartwheeling teacher who got arrested for accidentally flashing her vagina. Who cares? Parents and cops, apparently.

Episode #122 - What's the best way to fix politics? Kirk Wilcox

Are anti-SJWs the new SJWs? Debate starts at 00:25:19. We're joined by the distinguished streamer, debater and online personality, Steve aka Destiny (https://www.twitch.tv/destiny) who flew in to LA and came straight to the studio to have a debate. Badass. We debated how outraged both sides of the debate get, touching on Gamer Gate, the Ghostbusters outrage, Anita Sarkeesian and racist witch hunts. This was a really great debate, with some real-time examples of anti-SJW outrage. You can watch the video version here: Madcast Media Network YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChMUFeIZ1l9uRJ4bIXuAKDg?sub_confirmation=1): https://youtu.be/V_F6QT1cPms?list=PLf-OiH3ea1_CE0fjmDw3njnqjo2LTl8buThis week's episode was a bit delayed because of my Comic-Con schedule of beating up nerds.

Award-winning journalist Tim Pool joins the show this week to discuss an important and unusual debate topic: is violence free speech? Tim's work has appeared on Time, RT, Wired, Fusion, Fox News, Vice and just about every international news outlet at some point as the foremost citizen journalist covering the Occupy Wallstreet movement. We also shot a YouTube video together which should be coming out soon, I'll post it on this site when it does.And speaking of YouTube, here's an animated short from the archive where we discussed the evolution of a Koffing, where I trolled the listeners:https://youtu.be/3UdNnqJvyJ0And at long last, Maddox vs The Universe is coming out this week on Wednesday.

Mike Gamms

It's 4/20 this week, which means two things: it's Hitler's birthday, and it's the day that pot-smokers around the US protest anti-marijuana laws. So the debate this week is: SHOULD POT BE LEGALIZED?Should marijuana be legalized? It's the debate you've heard your college roommates pontificate about much less eloquently than they imagined at the time. Well we're bucking the trend of ineloquence this week by debating with our guest, comedian Mike Gamms (https://www.facebook.com/mikegammscomedy/). Mike has been on a shit-ton of crazy adventures around the country. You might even run into him if you're at The Comedy Store (http://hollywood.thecomedystore.com/) for this week's roast battle, or at Caroline's (http://www.carolines.com/) on May 1st.

Debate starts at: 15:24. Is social media making us depressed? Singer &amp; song-writer Camila Paiva and Dreadmere joins us to debate this week. When was the last time you felt better about yourself after using social media? Other than when you check my Facebook page which is full of cheer and joy, does monitoring posts for validation like a hawk make your life better or worse? That’s the debate this week, and it quickly devolves into an is/ought argument, which is satisfying to listen to just like every time I open my mouth.

Episode #58 - Mike D, Did CNN cross the line?, Rucka, Mikey Bolts, Wimbledon Ants, Nathan's Hot Dog Contest

Christine Little

Debate starts at: 08:08. Comedian and actor Christine Little joins us to debate who the worst person is to sit next to on a flight. There were so many bad choices, but I think I topped them all with a choice that our journalist in moderation may disagree with. Speaking of Taylor, this is his farewell episode and we wish him well. May he carry the tradition of reading PR pieces as news wherever he goes. Watch the video version here at at Madcast Media Network YouTube channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UChMUFeIZ1l9uRJ4bIXuAKDg?sub_confirmation=1Ron Babcock tells us an amazing story about how he got a Christmas card from the Chevy Chase family for switching seats on a flight. And we say our farewell to Taylor Nikolai this week. May he continue to call into the voicemail for years to come.And here’s my new book, F*ck Whales: Petty essays from a brilliant mind:http://amzn.to/2oiF2xiWe round out the episode with a story about how dolphins are able to communicate with another species (allegedly). Too bad they can’t communicate with humans so we can tell them to pick up the slack. Plus olive oil may be just as good as viagra, according to companies that sell olive oil. And goats tend to flock to humans who smile because they know they’re going to get fed. The journalist in moderation did not disappoint in his final episode.The voicemail number is: 1-562-58-I-RULE (1-562-584-7853).
