Whats your idea of justice? We think mob justice might work... but then again does an eye for an eye leave the whole world blind? Eye for and eye is what the bible preaches. Speaking of religion, What does it even mean? Solar messiahs everywhere! Vikings probably invented it then Christian's stole it, but what the fuck do we know? Horace, Jesus, Krishna, Buddha oh my! All of this and more right meow!   Make sure and help us out on our Movember campaign!  Help us bring awareness to Men's mental health! Click the link below to help us out. Dumb By Design

Yada yada yada, fetishes! Philias, fetishes, phobias oh my!  According to the urban dictionary, pygophilia is the attraction to or the arousal from touching the human butt. I think that's like everyone, right? A philia is a fetish. We all know what fetishes are, but do you know how many there are? Foot fetishes are just the tip of the iceberg. People like to watch, be watched, watch in secret, be demeaned while watching, pee on you, have you pee on them. Some like sleepy sex, diaper sex, surprising sex (which is rape), paddle play, spanking, and flogging. Bronies are a thing. They are adult males who fetishize "My Little Pony".  Don't steal, share.

Disclaimer: We believe everybody should be treated the SAME. But everybody is NOT the same. (Also, Brandon was nursing a hangover  HOTD style during recording) A Canadian bicyclist, Rachael McKinnon, broke records and won world titles. She is transgender. We explain what we know and have some hard opinions with minimal information. Call us Dave Chappelle. Climate change. That is all that needs to be said, except that Brandon is terrified.  Change is coming.    SUBSCRIBE

We reeeaaallly don't like nazis. One of us more than the other. Can you guess which one? Seems to us the poor are looking at this all wrong; we should all band together and be racist toward the rich. Segway into the lighter part of our lives.  Health is a confusing thing. Just remember, we are not healthy and you should tread lightly on this subject with us. Vegans may have it right, but capitalism is going to quickly clean that up behind our back before we have a chance to take back our health. Processed food is processed fucking food. Milk drinkers have always been a phenomenon we'll never understand, but the stupidity of the public is astounding. 

We are not doctors, but we have opinions on anxiety because Brandon has some of the anxieties. Can we overcome anxiety or will it continue to dominate the pharmaceutical market with all the lovely new remedies that come from natural earth. Is anxiety a mental illness? Let us know, explain yourselves!    Follow us on twitter @DumbbyDesignPOD Follow us on Instagram @DumbbyDesign SUBSCRIBE WHERE EVER YOU MAY BE LISTENING TO PODCASTS!!!

Success is a hard thing to define. Poor success is defined all the time, by successful people. Its family, friends and health. According to people with financial success at least. We define success in many ways, mainly because we aren't really sure how to define it at all. Ralph Waldo Emerson had some good words about it so we discuss those.  Follow us on Instagram @DumbbyDesign Follow us on Twitter @DumbbyDesignPOD Please don't forget to Subscribe where ever you listen to podcasts

Boys don't cry, men kill themselves. Maybe we need a safe space. Brandon and Remington like to use "This is Us" as an excuse to cry. Really though why are we condemning young men for expressing emotions some might call "weak"? Watching as they build an emotional prison in which to reside. Maybe that's why they are angry enough to shoot up their school or form incel groups!? We are starting to realize how damaging this is to all humans. Maybe we try and talk about it.   SUBSCRIBE WHERE YOU LISTEN 

#nokidsnofuture is fucking insane. If we have come to the point where CHILDREN are giving the adults ultimatums, it's gonna be rough, as Tim McGraw would say, in my next 30 years.  Day after day so on and so forth, we encounter videos of the police over stepping their authority and doing whatever they think they can in the moment. We don't think its acceptable that the general public is fearful when a police cruiser slides behind you, all up in them dm's. And if you are a good cop that doesn't hold his brothers and sisters in blue accountable, then you are not really that good of a cop, are you? Check out this episode to hear some resemblance of an opinion on the matter. Hell this description might be all you need.  SUBSCRIBE WHEREVER YOU LISTEN!!!!

Climate change is real. People thinking we survive as the world corrects itself, is also very real. And frustrating.  And.. We talk a lot of shit about incels and toxic masculinity, as these are things that we actually care about, both being fathers to young girls. But is there a shoe to put on the other foot? Is toxic feminism really a thing? Or is it just another opening for the devils advocate.  This shit and more on this episode. Don't forget to subscribe. 

Alcohol can be an amazing thing. Over many years it has seen its ups and downs with the general public, but after enough women were beat up by their drunken husbands and fortunes were lost, the United States tried prohibition. It didn't last. But did it work?  Couple of friends hanging out on Skype talking about shit that makes them think and makes them laugh. Don't forget to subscribe on your way out. 

The blame game. Everything is always somebody else's fault. From the time we are children, we didn't do it. It's another one of those deep beliefs running in concurrence with greed. But something that some of us were taught, is "take responsibility for your actions."and that notion grows into, at least, a couple guys talking about accountability for racists, incels, and bi curious dudes that blame it on the liquor.  Space Ghettos. Conor McGregor. Subscribe where you listen.  

The world wants to know who you are so they can sell you shit you don't need. Its the new gold rush, or oil rush. Everyone has caught up to the wonder of speaking about something and it showing up on your phone 5 minutes later, but what does that actually mean? Is it something we should be careful of?  We discuss this and other stuff that we don't know anything about on this episode. Please subscribe where you listen to podcasts!

Baby boomers. Do we complain about them enough? They, along with Gen x, blame millennials for everything and most millennials sit back and take it on the chin.  Boomers created the society we live in today and there is really no other way to put it. The extremes they see are a result of closed eyes for decades. They don't understand an iPhone but we like to continuously but them in office.   We rant on about people who complain about us eating tide pods and wanting gun control on this episode of Dumb by Design.  Subscribe. 

Its boner week! It happens right after shark week, look it up. Is viagra really necessary though? A man probably has a million boners by the time hes 50-60, does he really need to keep having them? There has got to be a connection between too many boners in the elderly and voting republican.  Video games aren't the cause of real life violence, unless you're a white kid (again, with too many boners) drinking energy drinks. Kids need a right of passage. Why not leave children in the mountains to make their own way home? That'll get em hyped.  Jeffrey is an awful name. In 1884 during the cowboys and aliens period, the first humans snarted and out came a Jeff. Don't name your kids Jeff. If they turn out to be a serial sex offender, it'll just make things that much worse.   Subscribe where you listen. 

Who is your favorite murderer is a really weird question but if you think of it in literal terms, heros kill, which makes them murderers so lets go with Iron Man.   Freedom of speech is taken advantage of almost as much as the 2nd amendment is, and we're gonna talk about it. 

What do you consider to be living your best life? If its working 9-5 so you can vacation once a year for 5 days, you're listening to the wrong shit. Nature is natural even if being naked in nature feels a little unnatural. We strive to live our best lives, and being outside, waking up and eating, sleeping under the stars... That's our definition of best lives. The tragedy is that what came natural to early humans is now a noun - Camping. Do still need a tent to do the dirty though.  In the wake of a terrible weekend for the country, we briefly discuss the reasoning behind owning guns, and solutions to issues like mass shootings. Might not be a bad idea to bring back good ole organized crime. Mob protection and threats of violence to incels everywhere may be just what cures our ailments. Or maybe we should just stop teaching such hate to our children.      Subscribe where you listen. 

What do you think about eggnog? Its like Jimi Hendrix to Brandon, only great because he's dead. Tangents run wild in an episode dedicated to doing better for our children. Class acts.  The real "mr. steal your girl" is the kid with packed lunch at school, its a sign of wealth. Millions in debt, kids all over the country are being chastised by school districts over needing to eat during the day.  The whole country is obsessed with American Football, a "team" sport that glorifies its superstars. We should be promoting individuality, that doesn't mean raise a new generation of flower children, it SHOULD mean that we are teaching the next generation of humans to know how to take responsibility for their actions cause that hasn't been a thing for a while.  SUBSCRIBE WHERE YOU LISTEN.

Books or movies? The detail of a book is unbeatable but you can never unsee Avatar. Your imagination thrives while reading a book, but can you really READ Rafiki kung-fuing a bunch of hyenas? You can't shove 8 books into one movie, and making us wait 3-4 years for a 3 book series is torture. Its a never ending argument, this books or movies nonsense, one that cant be won.  Also. Why are Lions considered the king of the jungle? The large cat of the jungle is the Tiger and ol' Mr. Lion is miles and miles away. It's also very curious that the Lioness hunts all the food. At what point does she protest for equal work, equal pay? The Tiger is the king of the Jungle, Sharekhan says so.   Immigration. As humans we have rode horses and built buggies. We've enslaved humans to commission rail roads, and we sore the skies. But I need a little black book to tell me I can go to Canada. Immigration is stupid, Dark skin comes from the south, and Remington thinks we should cut all our nuts off. This is about how the conversat

Have you ever seen a monkey bending over tattoo? Like on a hairy belly button? Pretty terrifying, but fun. Might be time for a gag tattoo for these two space cadets.  People are still planning to storm Area 51 and were excited to see what happens. Oh the possibilities! Or most likely it'll just be a massive traffic jam. And its the desert, so good luck with that. Remington doesn't put it past our military to drone strike you all, either, so good luck with that. And if you found an alien, then what? move on, call of duty. While on the subject of shit you thought you seen, we move right into psychedelics and the destruction of ego. Brandon isn't so sure that the ego can be completely destroyed but Brandon has also never been to Peru. So, if Aubrey Marcus wanted to sponsor a trip for the two of us to go on an ayahuasca journey we definitely wouldn't say no.  Any comments made towards the ice man Wim Hof that seem offensive are not meant to be. That man is the real breaker of chains. You know, hes just a little w
