Duties include: Turning on the microphones and hoping for the best, and forgetting peoples' names.Bjork:"Armed with her knowledge of Shaq-Fu and mid century furniture design, Bjork brings the funny without having to wear a swan dress. Her comedy prowess rivals Chris Kattan in Corky Romano."-Entertainment Weekly*Not a direct quote from Entertainment Weekly.Dr Detroit:A chubby know-it-all who thinks he's much funnier than he really is. He's not actually from Detroit and only named himself that because he thinks his knowledge of obscure movies somehow makes him look cool to his peers. In reality they look down on him with contempt. Mick Fly:Came on as a guest Back to the Future expert (episodes 141-144), stayed for the White Russians and Octopussy. Duties include: Editing, meme creation, and laughing like Peter Griffin at "duties".Hiemdallr:Sees all but doesn't understand how to do computerNapoleon Bonerfrog: Origin: Classified.

536: Thor's Christmas Commercial Special 2016
22/12/2016 Duration: 47minWe continue our annual tradition of doing a radio play to celebrate the winter holidays. We hope you enjoy our silliness. This presentiation is almost entirely improvised commercials. Pumpkins and GPS scripts from icomedytv.com. That what the fuck Folger's ad is surprisingly close to the original ad. Pennslyvania lottery really does have an ad where an old man gives off scratch-off lottery tickets, and it does star a talking ground hog. Many many many thanks to McFly for editing this nonsense and creating and adding all the great sound effects and music.

508: Voicemails - The MUSICAL!
10/03/2016 Duration: 26minThis week Thor is working extra hard and long (giggity) on his new super secret film job (another giggity). McFly needed to clean out his voicemail box and didn't want to waste 13 minutes of perfectly awesome messages left by the pantheon. So here they are, in all their glory... un-aired messages from 2014! Also, since it's very un-Thor's like to release an episode under 15 minutes, McFly included a best of musical collection.
