This is real stuff that is really happening right now! Enjoy Buddies!

Helloooooooooooo Buddies! Let me ask you something, have you drank rain water out of a wolf's paw print? Do you own any wolf skin belt? If either of these (or many others) are true, you might be a werewolf. No, this isn't a Foxworthy knock off! We're talking Werewolves on this episode! Learn a little bit about the history! Learn about the different forms! Learn about the weaknesses! But mostly, learn about the time Travis was attacked by a Werewolf! Listen, enjoy and then tell a friend! You just might save their life!

Hello Buddies! Listen, we all know parenting can be tough! There's so much to deal with when they're infants, unable to even begin to care for themselves! Then, they become toddlers, running face first around the house and terrifying the shit out of you. By the the time they reach childhood and head out in to the world, it's almost too much to bear! Add in to that Zombies, Earthquakes and the Rapture and you might as well throw in the towel! We're joined this week by Heather Brooker (Motherhood in Hollywood) to discuss parenting through the world's end! Join us!

Hello Buddies! Sure, we've talked about losing power and such before. We've talked about space itself attacking us. We've even talked about the Sun before! But never all that in one episode, plus so much more! You see, Solar Flares are a real threat and if a powerful enough flare happened, it could fry our power grid. The good news is... well, we'll get to that in the episode. Learn all about the cause, the problems with predicting and what we can do to protect ourselves from Solar Flares! 

Hey Buddies, is everything not GOOD? Have you had a powerful SCARE? Has the SHTF? Then just grab your Go Bag! What's that? You don't have a GO BAG?! But what about your essentials? What do you grab as you run out the door? Where's your collection of flashlights? Well, don't worry! Travis and Andie will walk you through everything you need to put together a bag that is good to go!

Hey Buddies! We've got a real super episode for you folks! Like, REALLY super! It's got a Volcanic Eruption Index of like an 8! Maybe even a 9! This episode is all about Super Volcanoes like the one under Yellowstone! You see, this is another one of those apocalypses that could really happen.

And don't worry, we've got lots of advice on what to do before, after and during a volcanic eruption!

Crack open a coconut, pull up a stack of bamboo, drink some seagull blood and enjoy!

Hello Buddies! Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's A GIANT ASTEROID HEADED FOR EARTH!!!!! Well, that one and a gajillion other ones. You see, stuff from space hits Earth all the time. Usually, it's pretty small but sometimes it can be quite large. Like, world ending-ly large. Sure, we can build bunkers and plant repositories, but if a big enough rock hits, we are done for. The good news is, there are scientists far smarter than Andie and Travis coming up with solutions! Learn about the potential solutions for the potential disaster! Some of them are really wacky!

Well Buddies, we've recovered from our separate but equally devastating illness! Our time on the sickbed got us thinking, what if it wasn't illness? What if it was... POISON?!

What do you do if you or someone else has been poisoned? All this, plus real life poisoning stories! Enjoy! Also, we wouldn't eat that if we were you...

Hello Buddies! Welcome to another installment of the Bunker Buddies Mailbag! Travis and Andie answer your questions from Twitter and Email! Enjoy!

Hello Buddies! Well, it happened. The world as we knew it has ended and everything you once knew has crumbled. After surviving the immediate danger, it's time to start reforming some kind of existence out of the rubble.

Hello Buddies! This week, Travis and Andie discuss their "dream bunkers"! From basic to extravagant, what would they want to not just survive, but comfortably wait out the apocalypse? Would they want a pool? Perhaps a room full of puppies? Maybe a walk in freezer? Or maybe just a bathroom with a door on it?! Not only that, what would they fill their rooms with to ensure that if they go insane, they do it in a very controlled way? Listen, enjoy and tell a friend!

Welcome Buddies! Well, this is it. No way around it, the world is going to end in 24 hours... hypothetically. What do you do with your last precious moments? Do you spend time with family? Hang out in Dodger Stadium? Or just do all the drugs? Sandeep Parikh joins us to discuss  what WE would do in the event that the end would hypothetically be nigh! What would YOU do?! Be sure to let us know on Twitteer (@TravisandAndie)!

Hello Buddies! Welcome to our second question and answer episode! Who did we forget from our Apocalypse teams? Which deities did Travis mispronounce for an entire episode?

Hello Buddies! Allow me to paint you a picture: The year was 1999! Panic swept the land as the new year approached and with the terrifying possibility of the Y2K Virus! Planes would fall from the sky! We'd be launched back to the Great Depression! Nuclear weapons would be launched worldwide! We counted down as the big ball dropped and on 0... nothing happened. Well, actually a few relatively minor (though in one case incredibly shocking and horrible thing happened) things occurred, but we did not find ourselves in a new Stone Age. We're joined this week by Todd Anderson and Stephen Skelton of The Film Pigs to discuss the Apocalypse that almost was and what we can learn from it.

Also, when was the last time you watched Independence Day? It's like, REALLY good.

Hellow fellow human buddies! Nothing strange going on here! Just a couple of normal humans doing a podcast, same as always! And even if we were impostors, how could you tell? A secret code phrase? Could you tell from our mannerisms? Or maybe you'd just stab us and see how it goes. That's pretty much Andie's solution. Also, learn about a really interesting mental illness. Also, Andie is an indigo child and Travis is a psychopath apparently. It's a pretty weird stream of conciousness episode!

Buddies! It's that time of the week once more! Tell me, have you thought about your mode of transport should all hell break loose? Are you more of an SUV or a motorcycle person? Perhaps you prefer an option less traditional? On this week's episode Travis and Andie discuss all your vehicular options when it comes to the apocalypse.

Hello Buddies! We've all had a time in our lives where we felt like we were surrounded by idiots, right? Well, what if it were true? What if you woke up one morning and you were the last intelligent person on the planet? Would you name yourself President? Try to re-educate the masses?

Are you worried about how poor hygeine will effect your dating life during the Apocalypse? Are you struggling to find that perfect holiday gift for the prepper who has everything?

Wonering what you can get us for the holidays? EASY! Just share us with a friend! Intro and Outro thanks to Brentalfloss Artwork courtesy of Justin Russo

Welcome buddies! This week we talk about eternal night, or (as Andie googled) What would happen if there's no Sun? When 9 year old Travis was told that eventually the sun would die, that really stuck with him! In this episode, we dive into the first of his many child hood fears! Why are we so afraid of the dark? How long would it take humans to develope night vision? What do you call the creatures that live in caves? We have no idea! So, join us as we make theories and jokes in equal measure!
