Episode 199 Gord and the Purple Gang Gonorrhea

 We are almost to 200 and today we had a guest. Not just any guest, but one of Kelly's oldest friends that is actually willing to admit he was on our show -  Retired News Anchor . Award-winning journalist, singer-songwriter, bestselling author and one of the region's most popular news anchors, Gord Steinke, retired from Global Edmonton (Canada) after 30 years with the station. If you are a fan of Canadian news, you already know him, if he's new to you you'll be a fan once you listen to this.

Episode 198 Brigitte Bardot and Sniffy's

 The final episode of 2025 is here and we really wrap up the year with hitting all kinds of topics. We're planning for something special for episode 200, so let us know if you have any fun ideas!

Episode 197 Insurance Companies and Epstein Victims

 Here's our Christmas message for you: don't take any of our medical advice, or maybe any of our advice at all. That's our Christmas gift to you...honesty. We talk about the recently redacted Epstein files, live, love and the pursuit of happiness.

Episode 196 Versace Lives And The Internet Tip

 Old men's fashion. Let me say that again - this episode we talk about what we should wear. From snakeskin boots to hawaiian shirts with a suit. Wow...do we need help. Also, online shopping requiring a tip? Never!

Episode 195 Return To Office and The Fancy Camera

 It is more than 5 years since we podcasted in person. This time we are back. That pandemic can't hold us down! Laugh along with us as we catch up on Kelly's latest high end camera purchase and talk about the state of the healthcare system.

Episode 194 Thanksgiving After Effects and New York City

 This week's theme music is my original composition, Murderous Biker Escapes to Mexico, and in keeping with that tradition, we discuss our Thanksgiving celebrations as well as Kelly and Danny's time in New York City. What does that have to do with bikers or Murder? ...Listen and find out! Maybe nothing.

Episode 193 Hot Moms and Cheap Vets

 Holidays are upon us and through all the doom and gloom of shopping and political news, there is still a bright spot. The local holiday carnival. Happy Thanksgiving, and remember turkey is cheaper than beef this year!

Episode 192 Dating and the Sexy Blood Pressure Cuff

 Back in action for number 192! We talk about Ozempic face, Obese ICE chases, the dating benefits of mandatory military service and a hot new show that Kelly is going to develop. It's education, it's comedy, it is funky theme music... it's The Cocktale Hour!

Episode 191 Medicare Part WHATEVER and the Fart Machine

 They can't all be winners, right? That's what I tell myself as we skyrocket towards episode 200. I'd say to let us know what you think, but that is rare, isn't it. Let's talk about being censored by the current government for our ideology and how healthcare has become my voting single issue. Good luck out there friend!

Episode 190 Epstein and Good Luck Poland?

 Months, I tell you. That is how long it has been. We are back with disinformation, some funny stuff and more educational commentary than you can shake a stick at. We should be good to go until the FCC shuts us down, so hang in there America!

Episode 189 Epstein, the Missing Healthcare Plan and Mick's Birthday

Summer keeps plugging along and we are talking about Kelly's new car and how John could stop talking about the Epstein files if someone gave him a good healthcare option. Wasn't that something that the orange guy promised a decade ago? Happy Birthday Mick Jagger and please welcome our new sponsor, Clem's Truck Stop at the crossroads of Highway 1 and 16 in Canada. Where all the best lot lizards hang out.

Episode 188 Billy Jack and Hedonism

 Happy 249th America, we wish you the best. This week we talk about what makes someone cool based on an article Kelly found online. Danny realizes painfully that he has no style and wonders if it is too late to look like Billy Jack from the 1971 classic. In terms of Hedonistic, Powerful, Extroverted Adventurousness we continue to realize that we are 13 year old boys at heart.

Episode 187 We're back!

 Admittedly it has been a good few month hiatus, but we are back in action, finding our voice again. Do you want to hear about politics, ICE raids, protests, the loss of the rule of Law in America, how we are headed for a dictatorship....us either. We're going to talk candidly why we've been out of touch since March and get into the really important issues, like blood pressure and Yellow #5. Let's go!

Episode 186 The Power of AI, Porn and Your Pee

 This is the last episode of the Spring, so we've packed it chock full of extra nonsense. Danny is oddly concerned about the environment, Kelly is ditching his gas stove and John just wants to make a quick buck by exploiting elderly porn stars...what else is new? Oh, we're also looking for a new intern so if you know someone....

Episode 185 Father-In-Law Energy and That Damn Corruption

 I'm resisting calling this episode the Frequent Jerkers Club or anything else do do with Social Security. Frankly, I don't want to have my passport flagged, although a light detention after a Tesla protest would give me more time to catch up on my reading. This episode posted a week late.

Episode 184 Speedo Man and Self-1099ing

 We're back after a couple of weeks with renewed vigor. Are you tired of political bullshit and the pontificating opinions of Washington insiders worrying about your future? You've come to the right podcast because we only pontificate on how much money Danny could make on OnlyFans if he started a career as ......Speedo Man! Enjoy. Oh, if you want some Cocktale Hour Merch, search Cocktale Hour on the Etsy. I've got some stuff there.

Episode 181 The Scrote, or What Trump Didn't Do In His First 24 Hours

 Did you say new theme music that really embodies the 13 year olds that inhabit our old skeletons? You got it! We also dig into some political issues and edutainment as always. Enjoy!

Episode 180 The LA Fires and Wornstar Jeans

 We are safe from the fires in LA so far, but not everyone has been so lucky. It is not Gavin Newsome's fault, and neither was it predicted in Genesis 19:23–29, so if you are not going to say it with love, don't say it.  We will say all the funny stuff, and we didn't even get to roll our out ejaculation notice joke. Rats. By the way, there is a new theme song courtesy of some AI audio generating website. I dig it.

Episode 179 Medicare Part B and the DMV

Happy first podcast of 2025! They can't all be bangers, but if you are old and looking at life changes like we are, Kelly's Medicare adventure might be considered informative. Watch out for radicalized vets in 2025, that's my advice. 

Episode 178 Lichen Planus and Margaritaville

 I wonder how we devolve from medical advice to dirty priest jokes, but what a fun way to end 2024. We talk about eating for your blood type, Johnny Depp's parenting, Sniffy's and how our kids listen to anyone but us. If you want a new, sexy Cocktale Hour t-shirt, reach out. What a gift for the loved ones in your life!

Episode 177 The Supply Chain and Buying Experiences

 Christmas Stress! It's the reason for the season, y'all. Once again we are here to educate and entertain and whether it is moral management of your portfolio, the radicalization of America's youth or another one of our numerous business ideas, you've really got to turn in to catch this lightning in a bottle.

Episode 176 The United Healthcare CEO and Littlest Hobo

 In the world of true crime and whodunits, we're no fun. I already know who shot that guy. His wife, it is always the spouse, no matter how much fun other options sound. We talk about our plans for world domination through the excellence of our podcast too, so tune in campers!

Episode 175 Is America Great Again and Mobility Scooters

 John is finally back in town and we can record a new episode. It is our first post-election episode and we talk a little about that guy, but more about ED medication, old people on cruises and Thanksgiving Turkey. Enjoy!

Episode 174 Election Day and The Short Film

 This is the last podcast before the election. Depending on who wins and the remnants of free speech, we remain hopeful to continue Cocktale Hour, bringing you some of the last truly independent educational and entertaining content! Enjoy our discussion about the guy who had a penis implanted into his eye socket.

Episode 173 and a half - The Podcast recap Podcast

I used NotebookLM to make a podcast about the AI generated summary about this week's podcast. Enjoy the redundancy!   Summary The text is a recap of a conversation between John, Danny, and Kelly, where they explored various aspects of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, its potential impact on their lives, and the implications for their podcast. They discussed the use of AI tools for creating podcasts, generating images and videos, and even enhancing their professional endeavors. The conversation also touched on broader issues like the future of work, the potential for AI-generated content to be misused, and the benefits and drawbacks of relocating to Eastern Canada.

Episode 173 007 Cologne and the AI podcast

 This week John plays an AI generated podcast clip of Cocktale Hour as reviewed by fake hosts. In an era of not knowing who you can trust, I guess we are unique, and you can trust us to be just as real as ever. I'm also posting an AI-generated podcast about this week's podcast as well as another, more serious AI podcast about an AP News article. Enjoy the 3-fer!

They dive into intriguing topics such as the consequences of being a Secret Service agent under Trump, a surge in campaign donations, the effects of processed foods, and the evolving role of AI in writing and the workforce. Evidently, AI is too polite to mention penises.

Episode 166 Ozempic Face and Vote for a Vampire

 Some of us watched the RNC theatrical presentation and thought that it was a testament to how many public-facing politicians and newscasters were full-on Ozempic users and how these candidates are really old, but wouldn't it be better to vote for someone really old like a vampire?

Episode 165 Throwing Wrenches and Don't Waste Your 20's

Episode 155 Generative AI and The New Hollywood

 Did you know that John is an AI expert and regularly lectures people...or is it randomly lectures people? Anyway, we talk a little about new generative AI stuff and how it is poised to change Hollywood as well as small town TV which I think is infinitely better. Enjoy!

Episode 154 Waiting For Taylor Swift To Stand At Your Bedside

 Is Taylor prepared to save America, or does she resent you for hating on her for her 38 seconds of air time in an NFL game?

Episode 151 Stinky Stuff: Dog Shit in the Grocery Store and The Presidential Aroma

 Cocktale Hour has become a global phenomenon, not because of the well-rehearsed, tired banter of the other celebrity podcasts, but because we connect with our listener through impromptu, timely topics. For example my decision to call some ex-president "Fat Hitler." It is a rare case that we'd bring a prepared topic to share with you, but I had to get that dog shit at Aldi's - yes it was Aldi - story out. Dog Shit. In the grocery store. That shouldn't be a thing I have to report on.

Episode 150 The Wedding and James Brown's Robe

 Happy almost Christmas everyone! We had a big wedding yesterday and we talk about how John can capitalize on making money out of religious services. The key, unfortunately is his learning to walk and talk simultaneously on camera. Can you believe that we've done 150 of these?

Episode 149 Peanut in Heaven and AI Generated Jokes

 Can ChatGPT make a photo of John's dead dog frolicking in Heaven? Hell yes it can. We talk about weddings, AI assisted services and how it does not use as much profanity as I do. That's where the comedy is.

 As we prepare for Hurricane Hillary, we talk about her 2016 opponent and the chances that he doesn't run off to his brethren in Moscow. Book banning is my new hobby and I want to see how I can get involved to ban the bible in each Christian™️community. That'll teach them a lesson!

Episode 136 ChatGPT, AI and The Lack of Candidates

 We are back with a discussion about AI and how much fun it is. I made Kelly's obituary and except for the lies, it was pretty good. We lament the lack of good Presidential candidates-The Rock and Tom Hanks are my front runners. Next week we are off again so enjoy this one while you wait!

Episode 135 Brenda from Branson and The Jamaican Accent

 This week we touch briefly on that guy who was indicted for hush money payouts to actress Stormy Daniels, and focus on really important things like what I would do if I was the heir to the George Jones throne..I'd sign autographs and take photos with EVERYONE.

We dig deep on this episode even though the cops have 0 leads on Kelly's truck. Do the police care enough to help you when you need something? Danny ponders attending a local school board candidate meeting. I wonder, should you go to every local political board meeting and cause trouble?

Episode 120 The Stolen Truck

 It happened. Someone stole Kelly's truck from in front of his house. Will he ever get it back? How long do you have to wait before it is declared gone forever. Do people masturbate to your personal photos if you AirBnb your house? All these questions will be answered in this episode!

 The prayers worked and Kelly is chipper as ever! We discuss skin grafts and discover that foreskin is available for any kind of facial graft you need.

As always, you can complain to us on Twitter at Cocktalehour. I've been making angry tweets there, so feel free to enjoy!

Episode 113 A Gift from Jesus and Angry Women

 This week America is a dumpster fire and I for one blame Christianity and have taken to Twitter to express my impotent rage. Danny is trying to keep us level headed, and Kelly has given up on voting as a way to institute change. Whether you believe in our opinions or not, here they are. Remember, no one can see your vote. If you live in a Christian Taliban state, you can still vote for change and no one a the Garden Club will ever know...

Episode 110 Memorial Day and Evil in America

 It's Memorial Day weekend and we're finding it hard to find much joy in America. Another school shooting, price gouging and inaction from every branch of the government. We find that it's the little things, like Herschel Walker's inability to make coherent sentences that give us joy.

Episode 109 Small Portions and John Varvatos

 Even though we have Zannie as a new Patreon patron, we could use a big sponsor to drive engagement. Maybe John Varvatos is the way to go, I guess we just need to send him a note. Ketosis, Probiotics, alien Jeff Bezos and illegitimate supreme court justices...today is for learning!

Episode 108 The Native Americans can save us from Jesus

 Where you live has a big impact on family planning assistance. I propose that Native Americans start up abortion clinics on their lands. Casinos and healthcare for the Southern states! Danny and Kelly deep dive into Covid testing and bounties, not for women seeking abortions, but men ejaculating. That brings a whole new twist to $10,000 a pop. Start saving money today, teen boys!

How to publish a podcast for free

Image
I have a little podcast called  Cocktale Hour that I run for about a dollar a month. I look at other services like Blubrry and Libsyn, and am shocked that they charge you for that service. I use a mix of antique, free services from Google and storage and delivery from Amazon. It is easy to use once you get the hang of it, and it struck me that maybe there is a need for someone to help podcasters out that don't want to pay for a subscription.  I can offer specific advice for what to do, but the whole thing looks like this: So, do you want some help or not?
