The Brighter Side gang did the unthinkable: listened to younger versions of themselves wax poetic about everything from eating puke to the possibility of getting married. To celebrate officially passing the 600-episode mark, Ed, Amber, Julie, and Ashley dug into the archives for a Best Of, revisiting bear cunnilingus, the early days of the pandemic, and a few gems that made them think, “Wow, we really did drink heavily at every recording.” A lot has changed, but we’re still here, making each other laugh and finding the brighter side. Enjoy!

The Brighter Side is a cynic’s look at optimism. We try and find the positive in this horror show we call Earlth. Stay outta that church, and spark up a joint, because everything is going to be alright. We're in this together.

Hosted by Ed Larson, Amber Nelson, Ashley Brooke Roberts, and Julie Rosing.

It's officially spooky season, so pull out your scaredy pants and let's rock. A car drives by with no headlights on, Bloody Mary pops up in the mirror, KILLER CLOWNS, and the scariest one of all: spontaneous human combustion. Julie and Amber go toe for toe sharing the things they were most scared of as children. Do these things still scare you? No? Prove it! Try to summon Bloody Mary without getting chills. Double Dog Dare Ya!
