Four doofuses discuss music with none of the bona fides required to do so. Every Thursday we chose four albums that best represent an extremely specific genre of music, (for instance Roadtripping to a Funeral, Dish Washing, Music to Buy a Boat To), and through a very "scientific" and """democratic""" process, we choose the best one. Impressions, bad jokes, and occasional realness abound.

More like Episode Not Found, am I right fellow nerds? This episode, like you probably are, is interested in shutting other people up as quickly as possible.

It's a weird one, folks! Both the idea that the people you rolled with in high school have improved in 10 years and this ep. Kyle is off doing something else, so it's just David and Matt! And we produce 35+ minutes of content, so legally we have met our obligations. HANDLE IT. Oh you work at Nationwide? You should add me on Linkedin twitter: http:/…

Now that you've had your fun with ghost boners, it's time to get these spirits outta here.

This is about as TOGA as it gets. We're talking ghosts, we're talking boners, we're talking ghost boners, and Kyle hates every second of it.

This week, we are just done with it. We're hopping in this inner tube, we are bribing the life guard to let us float around for hours, and we're just gonna let the underwater jets take us where they may on this chlorinated river.

What up, frosh, it's your first day! Listen, this is a tough campus of mostly liberal-arts kids and STEM majors, so you really gotta establish your dominance.

This week the TOGA Bois are venturing into the foggy, dark forest looking for a monster. Which monster you say? Why, the greatest, most fearsome monster of them all. An album. Don't believe an album can be dangerous? Well what do you say to this?! (Editors note: find a way to throw a vinyl record at whoever reads this text. Maybe a hex on the text?…

I'm gonna level with you, here. You know the name of the episode. It's the one with the wizard and the yeah yeah. It's a lot to type out. That's so many capital letters.

This week The TOGA Boys are back in town, the original hosts, baybee. The Boys are back with an announcement. But before that, a weird self-indulgent show with a twist.

First floor, men’s fashions circa 1994 Second floor: liars, diagonal parkers, and the person who designed CVS receipts Third fl- oh? The music? It’s specially curated by The TOGA Bois.

This week The Bois are joined by new Co-Host, not just guest, Linden Eldredge and the topic is dogs. Man's best friend. The constant, furry companion. Little poop factories with legs. Sleepy, floppy eared friends. And for some reason they can all understand language for a day. So do we try to talk to them as equals and reach a common understanding?…

SPACE. The final frontier. Of getting freaky. This week, The Boys are going where no man has gone before into the darkest depths of unknown space. Join us as we penetrate the unknown wonders of the cosmos and explore the many holes in our understanding of our great astral womb. We'll pound a path into the dark fantastic realms of the cosmic wonderl…

This week the TOGA Boys gaze into the future. About 70 years or so into the future, to be imprecise. What will music sound like when we're 100 years old? Frankly, we don't care. Because the music we'll be blasting when we turn 100 has already been made, apparently. Joined again by Andy (who did not bring an album out of protest for something or oth…

​We got a convoy going, yesiree, and we're hurtling down that lonesome highway. Just The TOGA Boys, except David is Chase from So Long, Stargazer, doing our best to stay awake after this incredibly long drive and not careen directly off of a cliff and into the sea. That's what happened to David. How he found a cliff in Ohio is anyone's guess. Let a…

The TOGA Boys have had a vision of the future. It's a glorious future filled with love, freedom, and you giving us all of your money and not asking questions. It's a world of divine inspiration, a world of family, and a world where you seriously give us a lot of money. Because the divinity thing said you should so do it. Because this is a family. N…

This week the Boys receive a strange capsule from the future. Strange because not only is it from the future, but also it's a capsule. Who stores, why would anyone store anything large in a capsule. The future is weird. Either way, contained in the weird capsule was an audio file. It seems like it's all four of the Boys from the (somewhat) distant …

LIVE from cloudy and miserable Matt's Basement, it's the The Only Good Awards Show 2017! All the stars are out tonight, but it's winter in the midwest so you'll just have to take my word for it, what with all the clouds and such. Anyway, the Boys are gathered to dish out the TOGAS to those artists and albums most deserving of the least respected aw…

Dearly beloved, We are gathered here today to honor the memory of AOL Instant Messenger. For no more will we hear the sound of that door opening, nor closing. Nor opening and closing rapidly because one of our jackass friends thinks its funny to go invisible and visible over and over agin. It definitely is, but come on, Jeremy, knock it off. Here w…

This week the TOGA Boys are joined by local heartthrobs So Long, Stargazer. The topic at hand: the best music to drop acid to nice. No, hang on. The best music to drop acid with your friends to NICE. Wait, no. Our friends are dropping the acid. We're just watching them. This is something that happens apparently. Well. As an episode description, I a…

This week the TOGA Boys are stuck in this rideshare car for a long, looong time. And it's awkward. Why is it awkward? Depends who you ask.

This week the TOGA Boys have had enough. Enough with these ghosts, enough with this undead cat, enough with the weird paintings, enough with this castle in the year 2017, with its lack of central air and, like, any wifi whatsoever. We don't need a professor to teach us how to turn a cat into a teapot or whatever. We can figure out how to cook fame …

This week the TOGA Boys are joined once again by Richie of Saucewise to address the concerning appearance of one Johann Sebastian Bach.

This week the TOGA Boys are joined once again by their CFO and VP of Bad Ideas, Devan, for the first time since the Santana Champagne Special.

We recorded fo…

The sun rises. The fog lifts. Guard dogs bark and pull at their chains. This is the day the TOGA Boys were dreading. Kyle isn't there though. He was too scared. He ran away months ago.

This week the TOGA Boys are embracing the tireless march of time and throwing a party for our grumpiest friend: Friedrich Nietzsche. He doesn’t look a day over 150! He looks many days over 150.
