20/10/2016 Duração: 40minIt’s LADIES NIGHT at the Mt. Rushmore Podcast! And not in that creepy nightclub kind of way but in a fun karaoke way! This week the topic is Songs Drunk Women Sing at Karaoke, and it felt wrong for a bunch of guys to discuss this. Instead, we invited our wives to break it down. Emily and Sara put in their song slips, and don’t forget to tip your KJ (Karaoke Judge) Jen. Order your Long Island Ice Tea and get ready to jump on-stage.

Mt. Rushmore at the Los Angeles Podfest 2016
04/10/2016 Duração: 16minA bit of a different episode this week - we went out to the LA Podcast Festival a couple of weeks ago and had a great time meeting some old friends and making new ones. While we were there, we decided to ask some of our fellow podcasters about who would be on THEIR Mt. Rushmore of Podcasts. And by "us" we mean Jeff, who basically was a one-man wrecking crew of awesomeness.

Mt. Rushmore of Hoaxes
29/09/2016 Duração: 51minYou know the saying: fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, I'll punch you in the nose. I think that's right. Regardless, hoaxes have been around along as people have loved making other people look stupid. So, that is to say, forever. But some hoaxes are more memorable and creative than others. SHOW NOTES Michael’s Picks Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot Film Wikipedia Entry (Seriously, It’s Crazy) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patterson%E2%80%93Gimlin_film Is There Anyone Left Who Still Believes the 1967 Bigfoot Film Is Real? – DangerousMinds.net - http://dangerousminds.net/comments/is_there_anyone_left_who_still_believes_the_1967_bigfoot_film_footage Bonzai Kitten Bonzai Kitten Entry – KnowYourMeme.com - http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/bonsai-kittens Bonzai Kitten – Museum of Hoaxes - http://hoaxes.org/archive/permalink/bonsai_kitten Great Moon Hoax of 1835 On This Day In History: The Great Moon Hoax of 1835 – History.com - http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/the-great-moon-hoax The Great Mo

Mt. Rushmore of Best Actors. Seriously.
22/09/2016 Duração: 44minThe actor. A man or woman solely dedicated to their craft of taking the works of the world's most talented playwrights and screenwriters and giving them life. Or, sometimes, they are happy to get a scene in a Fast & the Furious sequel with FIVE WHOLE LINES. Well, the hell with the Joe Schmo actors - we're only talking about the best of the best. This week, Richard and Michael try on the Masks of Comedy and Drama to explore the real - and we mean full on no fucking around - best actors ever. Meanwhile, Jeff plays "director", which mainly means shouting things at us through an old-timey megaphone.

Mt. Rushmore of Stupid Things People Do in Bars and Restaurants
15/09/2016 Duração: 31minThere’s nothing worse than going to your favorite bar or restaurant and having your night ruined by some lout without a clue about the concept of civility. Some people simply can’t handle the basic manners required to eat anywhere but a Golden Corral, and even than they are probably cutting in line for the Chocolate Fondue Waterfall! Richard, Michael and Jeff know about eating and drinking – they’ve been doing it their whole lives! This week they get together to discuss some of the rudest, most ignorant and just plain stupid things that customers do at bars and restaurants. SHOW NOTES General Stupid Customer Links “Astounding Stupid Restaurant Customers – Part 1 and Part 2” - Jezebel Joint Pick Bill Splitting "11 Things Which Will Always Happen When You Come to Split a Group Restaurant Bill" - Marie Claire UK Richard’s Picks Tipping with Change "Do Waitstaff Hate Change?" - Ask Metafilter Having to Sit Facing the Door "Eat Out with the Sopranos...But Sit Facing the Door" - The Independent Not Knowin

Mt. Rushmore of The Things About Baseball...
08/09/2016 Duração: 39minBaseball is our national pastime for a reason - there's nothing that says summer in the USA like taking the family to game, getting some hot dogs, drinks and peanuts, and then taking out a second mortgage to pay for all of it. But let's be honest - as great as baseball is, some of the best things about going to a game aren't necessarily about what happens on the diamond. There's a lot of time to kill while watching a game, which means a lot of time to notice the little things that make baseball so unique.

Mt. Rushmore of Desert Island Albums
01/09/2016 Duração: 01h07minLet's be honest - if you brought four CDs with you on a deserted island, you'd probably use them for anything other than listening to music. You could sharpen the edges and use them as weapons to hunt birds or fish. Or shine them to reflect sunlight in hopes of catching the eye of a nearby boat or plane. Really, there are tons of uses for these things. But, the trope is there for a reason. Music helps us to remember great things in our lives, or get us through tough periods. And being stuck on a deserted island is probably up there in terms of "tough periods". Michael, Richard and Jeff talk about the albums that shaped their lives and they would want to listen to again and again. So gather around the fire you've started using flint, rocks and seaweed and get ready to listen. SHOW NOTES Michael's Picks "Weezer (aka the Blue Album)" - Weezer "The Blue Album At 20: Looking Back at Weezer's Debut, Track by Track" - Grantland "20 Facts You May Not Know About Weezer's Blue Album" - Alternative Press "69 Love So

Mt. Rushmore of Shitty Candies
25/08/2016 Duração: 39minPretty much everyone loves candy - unless you're one of those "health" freaks who care about "nutrition" and "not having your teeth rot out of your mouth" and "diabetes". However, there are some candies we can all agree on that no one wants. They are the candies that everyone was disappointed to get on Halloween. Simply put, they are shitty candies. In this edition of the podcast, we take on a request from listener David Brown, librarian at the Casa Grande Public Library (it means "Big House" in Spanish). He does amazing work to keep kids interested in book readin'. Check out his YouTube page and his Twitter.

Mt. Rushmore of Rushmore
18/08/2016 Duração: 34minFor our 25th Episode Spectacular, Richard puts on his Punctuality Award pin and Michael the Perfect Attendance pin to become co-founders of the Rushmore Appreciation Society. We delve into the finer details about the film "Rushmore" in our latest podcast, celebrate a favorite film of ours and realize that this podcast is our Rushmore. Jeff is skinny dipping in Mr. Blume's swimming pool, giving out handjobs while these two were taking a nap on the front porch.

Mt. Rushmore of Horses
11/08/2016 Duração: 38minHorses: they can be wild, or talking or dark. But at the end of the day, a horse is a horse, of course, of course. And no one can talk about famous horses like Michael, Richard and Jeff. (As long as they don't talk themselves "horse". Good night everybody!) This week we tackle some of the most iconic horses of all time - fictional and real. It's time to saddle up for another trail ride to Mt. Rushmore, everyone. Make sure you've got your feedbags strapped on tight - this one's good.

Mt. Rushmore of Muppets NOT Named Kermit
04/08/2016 Duração: 39minThey are adorable, furry, sometimes cranky and often very bad at entertaining people. But enough about Michael, Jeff and Richard. Today we’re talking about the Muppets! Whether they are starring in kids’ TV shows, variety shows or the movies, everyone has their favorite characters. (Hint: it’s not Walter. Just...no). This week we break down the most Muppety of all the Muppets (with the exception of Kermit, because that’s too easy of an answer) and try to get at the heart of what makes a Muppet. This episode features controversy, comedy and angry taco eating. So take your place in the balcony, because it’s time to get things started!

Mt. Rushmore of TV Cop Teams
28/07/2016 Duração: 42minIt seems as though you can't turn on a television these days without landing on a TV cop show within a few spins of your dial. People love to watch because they want to feel like there are good guys keeping them safe. Also, they want to be assured that if they are found dead in the dugout of a baseball stadium, the detective will have a witty one-liner like "Well, I guess he'll need a pinch hitter." But TV cop shows are about more than solving crimes. They are also about the relationships between the partners. Often, they are mismatched pairs who have to learn to put aside their differences to root out crime. In other cases, Jack Webb is involved and the other guy kind of stands around. This week Jeff gets to play both Good Cop & Bad Cop in a performance that's sure to merit Emmy consideration, as he goes undercover as a amiable podcast host to take down the nefarious ferret smuggling operation run by Michael and Richard. He'll win their trust by moderating their discussion of the Mt. Rushmore of TV Cop T

Mt. Rushmore of Earth, Wind, Fire & Water
21/07/2016 Duração: 33minNo, we aren't talking about the band that gave us "Dancing in September" and "Fantasy" - although they are pretty sweet. We're talking about the four elements. It's what makes up everything that's around you. Well, technically, that's molecules and protons and stuff. Who knows! We're podcasters, not scientists. If you want that, go find Bill Nye. Join us as Michael and Richard try to determine the four things that best describes each of the elements, and Jeff summons the spirits to make a ruling.

Mt. Rushmore of Novelty Food Items
16/07/2016 Duração: 33minWe’re Americans. We like our food with lots of sugar, fats, cheese and enough chemicals to stock the labs at Cal Tech. In many cases, this comes in the form of novelty food items that are mash up two things we love, reimagine food that we love, or simply cram as much stuff together into one wad of goodness. In this episode, we dive headlong into the world of novelty food items. Open up your craw so we can jam as much junk food in as possible!

Mt. Rushmore of Famous Sports Fans
07/07/2016 Duração: 37minSome of the biggest celebrities in the world are athletes, who gain the adoration of millions for playing child's games. (Except for Australian Rules Football, which is the pinnacle of non-child gaminess.) But what about when the fans are as famous - or more famous - than the players they support? This week, Michael, Richard and Jeff explore the work of sports fans who either were already famous or became famous because of their sports fandom. Pick up your pom poms, get out your Vuvuzelas and...actually, please put that Vuvuzela down. It's really quite loud and BLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Mt. Rushmore of Recess Activities
23/06/2016 Duração: 39minMichael, Richard and Jeff want to discuss the merits of all of the fun recess activities they did as kids. But since they are all old, they realized they needed a recess expert who is a little bit closer to the target audience and has recent firsthand knowledge of the finer points of Recessology. With that in mind, welcome our first Guest Judge - Richard's daughter Vivian (age 8). She's on board to lay down the law and teach the grown-ups a thing or two about how kids like to spend their free time.

Mt. Rushmore of Fathers and Sons
16/06/2016 Duração: 31minThere's nothing more special than the relationship between a father and his son. Well, maybe the relationship between a mother and daughter. Or a boy and his dog. OK, let's start again. Few things are more special than the relationship between a father and his son. Fathers can be tough and difficult to please, but they can also provide a tremendous amount of support and caring. This week we take a look at some of the most famous pairings that show the whole gamut of relationships between kids and their dads.
