The world needs a distraction, and Solid Cat is here to provide it. Who are the Hairy Bikers? In Ni Hao, Kai-lan speaking Mandarin or Cantonese? (it's Mandarin) There is a world record wolf howl. Money is literally coming out of someone's wassou. Killer sex robots! McDonald's introduces the McVegan. What are slime eels? And it's food, food, and mor…

Summer vacation is over and Solid Cat is back to tell you what we did on ours. Stand back, this is actually the first half of a two part episode. First, D-mo is now and old man. In the News, we discuss a real life version of the Pina Colada song. For those that were wondering, yes, D-mo passed the stone. Wait... coyotes? Vermont is very beautiful a…

This week's episode of Solid Cat is powered by you, the fans. The proud citizens of Solid Cat City. What's on tap? One last covfefe jab. Macaroon, macaron, and Macron are three different things. Cheese rolling and shin kicking in England. Luring bathers to Japanese bathhouses, and "chizza" in China? Some guy found a vibrating fidget spinner (it's n…

From the NEEEW Solid Cat Studios, it's the Slumber Party of Podcasts! D-mo is being creative again, so stand back. Strep throat blows. The phrase we were looking for is "last resort." FINALLY, let's talk about My Little Pony. Apparently, people really love Adele and Disney soundtracks. What's the deal with Bob the Builder. Grabher, Lorne Grabher, i…

We're joined by a new special guest, Monica, on this week's episode of Solid Cat. Are 976 numbers still around? Webcam girls are kinda ridiculous. We briefly talk about the new Beauty and the Beast movie, and we're disappointed with the lack of promised gay sex. "Are you telling me that Emma Thompson, in general, isn't as good as Angela Lansbury?!"…

We're doing something different on this week's Solid Cat. The majority of the show will be taken by two things: La La Land, and Batman v. Superman - Dawn of Justice. We liked one, and we didn't like the other, but it's probably not what you think (spoilers: La La Land is overrated, and Batman v. Superman was actually enjoyable). We do highlight the…

Solid Cat is here to kick off the Lunar New Year with a fresh show of all that you love. First, thank you to all the fans who have download the show; you have set some records lately and we thank you for it. We still have seen Superman vs. Batman; will it be like Twilight? We coin a new word: craptivating, it's crap and captivating at the same time…

It's a brave new world as Solid Cat opens up Season 5! In addition to a new season, we're getting a new Lunar New Year; the year of the Fire Chicken to be specific. Also new: rain in Los Angeles, which means an increase in swift water rescues. Val is adventurous, but only when something comes recommended. In a series of classic Solid Cat segues, ta…

Solid Cat is open for business with so many things to make you feel good, it's like nirvana (not Nirvana). Val starts by tucking into way too much ice cream. There is a Random Bit of Knowledge regarding the club sandwich. "Le Cave" is just a fancy cave, which leads us to gay greeting cards. Medicines really have stupid names, and Val talks about he…

With a heaping helping of corned beef, Solid Cat is back! Val's friends kinda suck. Why aren't there legit cookie pies? Are "comfort" animals really service animals? Miniature horse racing in international waters. Monkey Knife Fight! 15 sex shop facts you wanted to know, but were too afraid to ask. How bad was Magic Mike XXL? Hotness leads to our d…

Happy Valentine's Day from Solid Cat. You should enjoy Solid Cat after sex; it's good basking in the afterglow. Puppy Monkey Baby is an abomination. Carrot Talk leads to Carrot Top leads to Sheamus leads to soap in a sock. We have a crate full of fun news today: a Spanish "worker"; lost in Iceland; a weed fail; a lost monkey; a found tortoise; expl…

Solid Cat is all over and back again. We dine at the Proud Bird near LAX. Who is Bobby Rasmussen? Why is D-mo quoting Fred Astaire? When did Val turn into an old man? We finally say Schofferhofer correctly, or do we? "Oh those Germans," leads to "Oh those Japanese." What is Tentacle Kitty? Is free parking disappearing in Las Vegas? Rent a room and …

Solid Cat is back! Where have we been? Maybe China, because we're suddenly popular there. If you're new to the show, we highlight some past episodes you might want to check out. What is a "douche flute?" On behalf of the whole world, FUCK YOU CANCER! Buckle up your bears in Russia. We introduce a new segment called Amazon Prime Time and we showcase…

Hunker down with Solid Cat as the Pumpkin Spice Apocalypse is upon us! Where there is no angst, there is no art. Don't be the stereotype even applies to white girls. Self-censoring on social media. Bob Ross says he's a painter; no, he's a freaking magician! Crazy ass bride billed a no-show guest. Potlatches are very weird social events amongst the …

This episode of Solid Cat is NOT jam-packed, but still lasts 90 minutes. What's up on the Solid Cat Community Calendar? Viking festivals have a lot of double entendres. Who's learning a new language? England is low on sperm donors. "I'm all about online shopping, but I'm not buying jizz online." Groot helps a kid communicate. Superhenge! Solid Cat …

It's hot on this week's Solid Cat. Let's explain how the "Explicit" tag on iTunes works. The horses are the highlight of Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament, but it's a overall jolly good time. Rivers are disappearing! Target is trying to serve you booze while you shop. Is "studying cactus" a euphemism for schtupping hookers? D-mo's Beard Update. Th…

Solid Cat is loaded with drunks and lies today. D-mo & Val are finishing each other's words and it's gross. Thar she doesn't blow! It's Beard Chat time! Proven fact: people don't like D-mo with just a mustache; it's full beard or nothing. The Space Cowboy Kitchen starts early as we toss back a buttered scotch, a buttered rum, and a hot toddy. In th…

Solid Cat is highly opinionated today. Monologues and dialogues are two different things. A funny biathlon joke turns into a weird Olympics diatribe (really, Los Angeles should always just host it). No refunds on Ugandan brides. A town emerges from the watery depths of Lake Mead. Don't pray for rain; pray for snow. Skinny jeans hospitalize a woman,…

Solid Cat is now on iHeartRadio! You smell that? Smells like legitimacy. It was Harry Potter's birthday and he's now 35. We have four words for you: Ethel. Merman. Disco. Album. Coyotes are chasing people up trees, maybe. Val once got D-mo an axe for their anniversary. Armadillos are dangerous critters. Behold the 360-degree beer can. We Booze Revi…

Solid Cat returns, but with a heavy hear as it's our first show since the passing of the Space Cowboy's dad. "Sorry for your loss" sounds kinda awkward. The Nissan Altima was rented and is highly recommended. Hooray for the big guy who is biking across the country to lose weight. If you're wondering, that's the neighbor's dog at the 20 minute mark.…

Solid Cat is back, and right off the bat, let's talk about gay marriage. If you a confused Christian, just know this: it's ok for gays to marry, and religion is not dead, though some are acting like it is. Just listen to us to get some clarity. Let's also talk about the Confederate States of America, where we ask, "Why fly the flag of a losing coun…

You wanted Solid Cat, so we're giving you one on the commute home. The word you're looking for is "certified," not "circumcised." It's not illegal to sell golden tickets to heaven, unless you say they're solid gold and they're just painted pieces of wood, that Jesus gave you behind a KFC; and don't forget your baby alligator. FIFA is rife with corr…

This week's Solid Cat is high on culture as D-mo and Val explored the exhibit of the work of J.M.W. Turner (allegedly Britain's most famous painter) that just concluded at the Getty Center. In the art talk, we critique and praise Turner's work, while also learning that Val digs Degas, and D-mo is all about Rubens. You can't talk about art without t…

To start Solid Cat, Val has a giant platypus on her head. Which invariably leads to a discussion about hats at the Kentucky Derby. We have a couple of corrections to make for last week's show. D-mo is in the Another Damn Trivia Show tournament final. Val has an unnatural obsession with Mary, Queen of Scots, which invariably leads to D-mo spending a…

It may the best episode of Solid Cat, and we're all over the map. First, D-mo is baffled by Hinduism. Religion takes us to outlet malls. It was Kentucky Derby day, and despite eugenics (or animal husbandry), horses haven't gotten any faster. The Mayweather vs. Pacquiao was a bit of a snoozer, but the Burger King was there (?). When there is rain in…

There are some episodes of Solid Cat, where we are cultured and refined. Other times, we're quite crass. No surprises what kind of episode this is. We go from banned underwear to the world's widest tongues to hand jobs while singing karaoke to teabagging to dick pics to ass beads. But first, D-mo gets handed a stranger's baby. You should watch out …

It's Spring Break season at Solid Cat. We explain western vs. eastern christianity, which leads to Jewish calendars, which leads to crossword puzzles, which leads to purposeful misspellings, which leads to Under Armour, which leads to Shoe Talk with D-mo & Val. Don't you just love stream of consciousness podcasting? Say hi to Rocket the Rusty Rocke…

The Getty Villa, the Griffith Observatory, and El Capitan Theatre... man, Solid Cat is all over Los Angeles. First off, as a good rule of thumb, don't throw a punch at your producer. Depression lies. In 1998, D-mo made Lisa Loeb the Green Lantern; this was favorited by Lisa Loeb herself on Twitter in 2015. Val got kicked in the face; literally a fo…

We may be fat, but ain't ugly here at Solid Cat. D-mo loves tenacious pinatas. Zoe is known more for silent terror (she's screaming on the inside). Are nail spas modern-day brothels? We visit the Getty Villa to start a grand tour of Los Angeles. Want to start a conversation, wear a Flash t-shirt. Famous people and people who portray them on film. W…

Rest in peace, Leonard Nimoy. Val always thought Spock was hot. But we do have a full show of Solid Cat today. Burritos are Mexican food, but breakfast burritos are not. Did Val nail her Oscar pick? Catwoman is bisexual now. Ever wonder what it sound like Val won't let D-mo finish a sentence? We have 5 minutes of it, and in the end, D-mo may not ha…

Hit the lights and sirens, it’s time for Solid Cat! Seriously, what’s with all the cops up in our peaceful, little hamlet? Let’s talk about Aquaman. Sexy, hunky Aquaman; hey, Jason Momoa is a good looking man. HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR! What’s with all the dinner parties we’re having? D-mo says Girl Scouts are getting militant with their cookie sales.…

After two months… SOLID CAT RETURNS! Pro tip: Back up your hard drive onto an external drive. Trust me on this one. The new computer in Solid Cat Studios was more of like a Time Lord regeneration. Happy Valentine’s Day! Val is mildly disappointed that Sherlock and John aren’t gay, and D-mo drops an interesting theory on Moriarty’s return. We talk a…

It's 12/13/14 at Solid Cat (unless you live outside North America, then never mind). D-mo was a roofer today... because, rain. Val can't stop yawning. There is no war on Christmas. Wanna put the Christ in Christmas, then feed the poor. You should say "Happy 2015" all year long. Charades are always an adventure. (Correction: Dar es Salaam is not the…

Happy Thanksgiving from Solid Cat. To start, corporate greed saved D-mo's father's life - it's a heartwarming tale of capitalism. Val transitions this into a discussion of a flat tax, and D-mo suggests we eliminate income tax completely. But then the comedy kicks in. Legos are washing up on beaches. Wolves in France, tigers in China, and Putin on p…

Solid Cat... the hour long show that always takes 90 minutes. Why did God call D-mo today? Our daughter has rock star hours. Also, her personal library would rival the children's section in most public libraries. Was Marie Antoinette the catalyst for the Industrial Revolution? Was Marie Antoinette a cosplayer? Fun fact: since Solid Cat has been bro…

One of our new taglines is: Come laugh, come be informed, come be offended. And boy did we hit all three on this week's Solid Cat. Playing Chutes and Ladders for cash is downright cutthroat. We have been downloaded in 48 of 50 U.S. States (I'm looking at you Alaska and Vermont). We're fun together. Necrophilia and Narcolepsy are two different thing…

Solid Cat One Hundred! And for some reason, Val said we're like Jesus. Sure, let's run with that. WWD&VD? This show, like all of them, is a crapshoot. Does "shooting the shit" come from plunking cowpies with a squirrel gun? Val is reading the 17th century version of Urban Dictionary... for fun. Holy cow, Sherlock is sooo much better than Elementary…

It's the start of D-MOvember here on Solid Cat! Valerie had an Oktoberfest birthday and had the first hangover in years. In Germany, they don't have port-a-johns, they have port-a-johanns. Our hummus recipe is pretty damn good. The Charlotte Hornets are back! D-mo loves team apps with local radio feeds. Val thinks Pelicans is a worse team name than…

We're random, smart, and funny... often at the same time... it's Solid Cat! Solid Cat runs on Dunkin' and other bizarre donut tales. Los Angeles is an eclectic foodie experience and we'll wait for anything. The rust belt is coming back! Sorta. Putin is a macho man, and that leads to a "world class" Solid Cat segue to heroin, gherkins, and garlic. N…

It's a rip-roaring romp on this week's Solid Cat! (not really, but that's the story we're sticking with) We insist that holidays stay in their own months. D-mo is getting his ass back. There are horns o' plenty. Fish with human teeth? Drunk, cow-fighting pigs? Yes, please. We have some adventures on the Queen Mary. Is Val a medium? We spend the bul…

When in come to Solid Cat, always vote Aye! Finally, we're doing that Ten Things with Val that we've been dancing around for 3 weeks. Is D-mo the Scotland of his office? We have surprisingly full coverage of the Scottish Independence vote (and is D-mo trying to do a Peter Capaldi impersonation?) We have the Ig Nobel prize winners... with fermented …

Solid Cat All-Star Matrice is in the studio for this week's Solid Cat. The innocuous phrase "Stings like the Dickens" leads to a super-sized segment on books and literary classics. D-mo has forgotten more literary classics that most people will ever read. What are our most influential books? The books are ALWAYS better than the movie. Is Stephanie …

Frothy things are always good things, and so is SOLID CAT. This week: did D-mo just compare himself to Mel Torme? "Mistress of Pajamas" really is a boss nickname. What is the Giant Floating Disembodied Head... named Steve? It's Dr. Whoutlander Day, and Val is trying to make that happen. Val is having problems with fingering her apps (wait, what?). …

On this week's Solid Cat, the show gets taken over by our sister show: Macabre Hour with D-mo & Val. But before donated skulls got us to that point, it was quite the hot mess express. Target & Thai food is a good Saturday night. D-mo went to the gym. Seriously. Val has been consistent with her food logging. Seriously! The show comes to a screeching…

Up for an adventure to everywhere and nowhere? Welcome to Solid Cat. Let's lead with Outlander... but let's talk about Assassin's Creed first... and then jump to Twilight (?)... and then on to Outlander. There is a new Doctor Who and he's Scottish. Valerie is too OCD to live in the Big Brother house. Do you need a FaceTime buddy? We're available. O…

On this week's Solid Cat, we go full nerd. But before we do, we talk Medieval cats with flaming backpacks that were actual weaponized felines. Did Weezer create hipsters? Monkey selfies, and side show prohibition. Also is every full moon a supermoon now? However, as this is the Nerdertainment episode, here are the movies/tv shows we reference in to…

It's D-mo's 40th Birthday celebration on Solid Cat! We start with Shakespeare and we finish with German Expressionism, but in the middle... we're podcasting in the daytime (shock), Val sounds like a southern belle when off air, and Val is the personification of the Dead Sea. Romeo is a whiny little bitch. Zoe interrupts us, repeatedly. We people wa…

It's the Season 3 Premiere of Solid Cat. Our hometown of Pico Rivera, California, is the UNDISPUTED World Champion of illegal fireworks. If we can't stop the influx of illegal fireworks, what chance to we have against drugs and guns. Valerie says North Carolina is "Virginia's Mexico." In the World Cup, D-mo asks "How do say, 'taken behind the woods…

Solid Cat is orgasmic this week. Why? Well, most people, after sex, they cuddle. What do we do? We podcast! Val is hungover but had the best day ever. We revisit Dave Coulier. We talk international sporting events: first the Quidditch Global Games, and then the World Cup. Did someone find Dracula's grave? D-mo shows an unnatural amount of love for …

The newly rebranded D-mo "the Spirit of Aloha" joins Val the Space Cowboy on this week's Solid Cat. First up, pineapples. Lot of them. Can't get enough of the King of the Fruits. Val is literally squeezing the juices out of them. We're going to make our own Dole Whip, and the pineapple clock radio has a nasty snooze button. There's a random The Tic…
