Death & Peanuts

First official podcast! Rob gets a new microphone but doesn't fix his brain, Stephen can't stop talking and Pat hates things. Fun for the whole family (if your family likes penis jokes)! This week we talk the new Samurai Jack comic, apple picking, Peanuts shorts, Superman and a whole lot of death.[audio:http://traffic.libsyn.com/rubberonion/the_rubber_onion-ep1-death_and_peanuts.mp3|titles=The Rubber Onion - #1: "Death & Peanuts"]
