EVERYBODY NEEDS TO SEE THIS. EVERYBODY NEEDS TO GET INVOLVED. MAKE KONY FAMOUS. BRING HIM TO JUSTICE IN 2012.
So, who’s listened to the podcast with Dina Facklis yet? Pretty awesome, huh? We’d love for people to share any thoughts or comments about the interview if you have them!

Hey guys!
We wanted to start out with some getting to know you (click that for a special treat!) activities like we did in first grade, or last night on Facebook! We came up with some questions that we think will accurately portray our wit and overall sadness to the world! Doesn’t that sound like a good time? No? Okay.
So here are some questions that we are going to answer and put into our bios so we can be really egocentric for the 5 hours it will take us to answer 10 questions! Anyway, we want to learn about you guys too! So feel free to answer the questions (even write your own) and submit them to us! We will post our favorite answers on the blog. If you have any questions for us, feel free to ask. We have no filters, so we will most likely just spew out an obnoxious amount of information that you really didn’t want to know anyway.
Have fun! I know we will!

Ladies and gentle ladies,
The podcast is finally here. After what seemed like months of fighting off the drug addict dragons, we were finally able to sedate them with songs from Beyonce’s new album (something about Love On Top made them really docile) and put up the podcast. We know your ears are eager to hear the mellifluous beauty that is our Dina Facklis interview so we won’t make you wait any longer. Here tis- ENJOY!
Just a quick note before you dive right into that interview: Keep in mind that it is our first one, so we are a bit awkward. You can hear Dina perfectly, but in a few spots we sound muffled or Lauren just flat out mumbles inaudible nonsense. That said, as we continue with our interviews, we learn from our mistakes and improve. We assure you that as we’ve progressed, our interview style has finessed. The podcasts to come will be clear and fun for all and amazing and grand and awesome and cool and another synonymous adjective.
Again, enjoy the interview!
-Lauren, Kristen, Maggie
Hey, again. This is really egregious. We promised you a podcast and failed to produce. The problem is that we are technologically inept. Also, those freaking dragons keep breaking into our offices! We promise we will get our act together soon. The podcast is just taking a little longer to put up than expected. It’s finished, but we need to find a reliable program to publish it. Thanks for your patience, guys. And please don’t be so hard on the dragons. Yes, they are extremely rude and disrespectful but they all probably just have mom issues. We hear dragon mothers are cold, emotionless beasts. Don’t give up on us! We will produce something! Love us! Okay, BYE! -Lauren, Kristen, Maggie
Sup, friends
So, our podcast was supposed to be up this Tuesday, but we experienced some difficulties. Rabid, fire breathing dragons, high on cocaine, broke into our offices at Egregious Productions and wreaked havoc! Luckily, we keep our podcast interviews in a fire proof safe, so the interview was left unharmed. Assuming the dragons don’t come back, we should have the podcast up next Tuesday. We sincerely apologize for the wait and hope you still love us.

Yo,
We’re doing our first podcast interview today with Dina Facklis! Get ready to be inspired. Inspiration is gonna spew from this interview like flavored frozen slurpee drink from a broken slurpee machine (someone come up with a better metaphor please). It’ll be available next week!
We’re having some issues with the domain right now, but we’ll have it functionally running asap. Thanks for the patience!

I often find myself asking,
“Why do I laugh at words like ‘fuck’, ‘shit’ and ‘asshole’? Why am I so concerned with why I laugh at words like ‘fuck’, ‘shit’ and ‘asshole’? Why do I keep saying ‘fuck’, ‘shit’ and ‘asshole’?…
…Why has comedy gotten so vulgar?”
Three vision-abled females trying to make people laugh... egregiously...
