The guys close out four successful weeks of horror movie reviews by saving the worst for last. This week, Matt’s all-time favorite slasher flick, ”Slumber Party Massacre 2” is the centerpiece. If only he had watched it first.

Now that it’s mid-October, the guys are all-in on their horror movie reviews. Well, at least they were until they watched 1980’s ”Motel Hell.” Now, they just hate Craig more than usual. But, if you like the idea of cannibalism, jerky, wet t-shirts, blind acceptance, May-December romance, and possible incest, this is the episode for you.

This week, the guys continue their horror movie retrospective, this time covering the 1980s classic ”Killer Klowns from Outer Space.” While there was doubt they could get a full review out of this one, they ended up doing the entire two hours.

The guys needed a week off to prepare -- Halloween season is here, which means horror movie reviews are back! This time, Brad goes first, choosing the seminal slasher classic ”Slaughter High.” It’s a complicated tale showing the long-term effects of bullying, drug use, premarital sex, and faking American accents like John Wayne. But we can’t go any deeper here -- listen to the review yourself and start the season right.

Ohhhh, yeahhhhhh... Before this episode even started, Matt was hitting hard and fast with his slow jams voice, setting the tone for a wide-ranging discussion about backyard rats, open flies, stray boogers, 311, Oasis, kindergarten, and the Isle of Man. Yep, it’s one of THOSE nights. So, grab a 40 and snuggle up, kids.

In what has become an annual tradition, 3/4 of the show is back from Maine, loaded with stories to tell. (Most of them about being loaded.) From puppy guilt to cooking surface shame, to boiled socks and the universal appeal of Harpoon IPA, this episode truly comes from out of nowhere.

This week, as 3/4 of the show (and 91% of New England) plan their annual trip to Maine, the guys tried to cram a lot of show into two hours. That means a breakdown of fantasy sports in reality, the reality of Asian porn, meaningful family parties, meaningless celebrities, and Corey Feldman’s eighth second chance.

This one’s late. But the guys have been busy! And in this episode, you’ll hear why. From revisiting Dave’s comedy debut, Brad not knowing the difference between US and Australian breakdancing, Dead Stiff Nick, trips to New Hampshire, and more, there’s plenty to discuss.

This week, Dave’s on vacation, somehow making a mountain range even whiter. So, the other guys figured it was the perfect time to discuss Dave’s successful comedy debut, lazy workers, the ending of Aerosmith, primitive surgical tools for male body parts, and the unique way New England enjoys pizza.

Another week, another conversation that starts with the best intentions, and quickly devolves into... well, what Needless to Say does best. The guys may have streamlined the beginning of the show, but the soul remains. Olympic controversy, heavy metal on the world’s stage, Hawk Tuah’s 15th minute of fame -- it’s all on the table this week.

No, your speakers aren’t broken -- the guys sound a little fuzzy this week. No, they don’t need remedial science -- they know that’s a killer whale, not a shark. No, you shouldn’t care about such details -- they certainly don’t. This week, after a few minutes of dabbling in political discussion, Needless to Say does what it does best, avoiding reality in favor of fluids and slurs.

This week, the guys meet in the garage, dodge a bald-faced hornet, compare nut stickiness, THEN proceed to discuss the manhood of a first lady, Elton John’s shopping exposure habits, and posthumous love affairs.

The Fourth of July has come and gone, which means Craig’s party happened. Were there fireworks? Explosive dramas? Sunlight and heat on shellfish? Of course there were... alongside the usual drunken updates, and a new drinking game that could cost someone a toe. Grab a beer and listen in.

Yeah, the guys were a little late getting this one out. But, with the Fourth of July, vacations, and other things keeping them from posting last Friday, instead, you’re all in for an early-week treat. And if you’re good, you’ll get another edition this coming Friday.

This week, the guys are down a man (again) but that didn’t stop them from discussing the Hawk Tuah girl, internet meme people, new work trucks, and Craig’s increasingly decrepit body. Also, for those who missed it last week, 100% more tree-related content!

The guys are down a man, but even with Matt working (watching) a severe thunderstorm (Celtics game) the remaining guys go a little old school, discussing amazing dogs, lab partner/stripper combos, and our favorite two-headed brides.

Recently, the guys got some criticism saying the show is ”losing direction.” To that, the guys responded with an episode that applies laser focus to two primary subjects -- losing control of their fluids and smelling Colin Jost’s manhood. If that isn’t direction... what is?

This was a special one. In just under 80 minutes, the guys covered insect falconry, a kid’s first fight, family barbecues, and teenage cultural appropriation. At least that’s what Craig, Dave, and Matt told Brad, since he was too wrecked to even remember recording this thing. Who knows? It might just be the best episode they’ve ever done.

Let’s just cut to the chase: The episode title doesn’t make sense. The AI-made episode image doesn’t make sense. The continual mention of Brad’s wife’s (perfectly normal) hand size doesn’t make sense. No, Needless to Say has NEVER been about making sense. And, after 339 episodes, it’s certainly not going to start now.

It’s been a rough few weeks around the NTS offices, so the guys took some well-deserved time off. But they’re back in force, to discuss Rolling Stone’s take on music, our take on religion, and generic bagged cereal. It’s like they never left! The episode name? Well, see if you can figure it out...

This is a handy dandy episode -- hand over fist, one of their best. In just a few hours, the gents cover hand size, manual stimulation, more hand stuff, and then some stuff about hands and jobs. Oh sure, they also mention bison, Pamplona, teacher beatings, and tire swings. But yeah, it’s mostly hand stuff.

Every now and then the guys of NTS do something completely different. Well, this wasn’t one of those weeks. But the guys DO cover some new ground. Brad’s kid is flipping off teachers. Craig’s pre-party condoms are now on store shelves. Matt revels in playoff basketball. And Dave doesn’t know how to play ”Two Truths and a Lie.”

Remember that time when NTS listeners said, ”HEY! You guys should make an episode that covers little people and conjoined twin marriages?” Well, folks, your long wait is over. There are no other words needed to describe this one.

This week, the guys recorded a day later than usual, but that was so Brad and Craig could share their adventures from a trip to Boston to see comedian Chad Daniels. Also, Dave realized he never wants a dog, and Matt realized he’s pretty good at having the sex talk with his stepson.
