Episode #49 - The biggest douchebag in the universe, Jesse P-S, Rucka, Mikey, Gandhi, Bill Nye, Payton Manning, Bono

Who is the biggest douchebag in the universe? And why is it U2's Bono? Jesse P-S (https://madcastmedia.com/shows/cringevscringe/) joins us this week for our first-ever BAG-OFF. We learn in this episode that Jesse has met Bill Nye in person not once, but twice, as well as U2's Bono and even Merriam Webster. Jesse's story of meeting Bill Nye may be one of the most incredible celebrity encounters we've ever heard. Mikey Bolts (https://twitter.com/MikeyBolts) brings in the man with tbe biggest forehead in the universe, Payton Manning, and Rucka (https://www.youtube.com/user/itsRucka) brings in the notorious Gandhi. I round out the debate with a special blend of douche, U2's Bono, who's known first for being a douchebag and second as a musician. A note about the audio quality on this episode: I rarely pull back the curtains, but this episode was delayed because it was edited together using mix-down tracks that we usually only use for backups. Unfortunately, none of the mixdown tracks had all of the data we needed, so this episode was painstakingly combined using 8 different audio tracks + video (details below). The video won't always sync up to the audio, so this episode's video feed won't be made public, but you can watch it here. A lot of people have expressed interest in paying for weekly video feeds, so that may be coming in the future. Until then, enjoy: https://youtu.be/Jyzo3_3OX4s Bonus episode #2 is finally out, you can purchase it from iTunes (https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/maddox-vs-the-universe-2/id1233454674), Amazon (http://amzn.to/2qWhDCQ) and our own website: https://madcastmedia.com/shows/maddoxvsuniverse/2/ Also, a big you're-welcome to everyone who pre-ordered my book: F*CK WHALES: Petty Essays from a Brilliant Mind.
