Well, save for Ashley muting herself halfway through the show… everything went SWIMMINGLY! Whoever sacrificed virgin babies… we thank you. In this wow-a-licious episode we’ve got a toddler who thinks he is Mario, a Japanese man who fingered the Prime Minister Abe, sex toys used as a weapon, and a dwarf who glued himself to a vacuum cleaner. What more could one person ask for in electronic entertainment? We say nothing, and we will eat a scorpion if you don’t agree!*

*Members of Horseshoes and Hand Grenades will not really eat any scorpions at any time unless we are starving to death on an island, and short of death, eating the scorpion is our only hope of survival.

Our 19th episode is CRAMMED with obscure, gross, hilarious, and oh-so-cute news! We couldn’t decide what was worthy and what should be chucked… so we kept it all! I’m writing this before we record in the hopes that the gods of podcasting will shine down upon this, oh wickedest, of episodes and make the quality shiney. We’ve got a follow up from episode 6, hello kitty, and a Swedish grandmother’s angry beaver! What more could you ask for in a 40 min show?

Post Note: Sorry for the delay, but the podcasting gods decided not to shine down upon us and gave us a ton of crap while we were trying to complete this nugget of awesomeness. But we have it now! This is take 2 of the show, as take 1 didn’t come out right. I do think that this one turned out much better and it may have been that the gods were doing us a favor

ARGH! Someone must really enjoy watching Stephen and I suffer. I assploded my mic right before the show somehow and had to make a mad dash to the cesspool that is Wal*Mart. When I arrived, I closed my eyes and drove through the parking lot (everyone else seems to do it) and found a halfway decent parking spot (SCORE!). I raced to the back of the store and snagged the only USB headset with a mic I could find in the illustrious city of Beckley. I was making good time until I reached the front of the store. NONE of the self check-outs were open and only two people were working the front. Stupid Wal*Mart. Stupid mic. In this episode, we bring you: evil squirrels (again), evil monkeys, evil dogs, and evil dentists!

We go through hell and Wal*Mart to bring you this show. Enjoy!

The Pi and CHiPS Network is well on its way to becoming an excellent resource for some mighty fine podcasting!

We have the super awesome Horseshoes & Hand Grenades starring Steve and Ashley, who scour the internet to bring you the most offbeat news they can find. Whether it be squirrel attacks, no-handed drunk men, or just a random Joe doing something completely idiotic, they report it, because sometimes you just need to hear it.

Also coming down the pipe is Geek’d, a show for all you tech nerds out there who just can’t get enough Linux command lines, or Apple unpacking pictures. Tweek’d is the R2-D2 to Geek’d, covering the most recent news in gaming. They’ll cover new releases and reviews, all with a higher dose of caffiene than a mortal man could ever stand.

All this will be coming straight to you in a couple weeks, so hang on to your potatoes! Or you can leave your potatoes alone and join us on the Pi and CHiPS Forum to bide your time. Even though the site launch is a week or two away, Don’t Panic! A new episode of Horseshoes & Hand Grenades will be coming at you on Friday, just like always! H&H is as reliable as the uncontrollable need to pee when playing hide and seek O_o.

Welcome to any people who may be making their way here for the first time through UneasySilence.com. We love that site, and hope you’ll enjoy ours.

Take it easy guys!
