About this listen

He's the Beaveman, a sarcastic, angry, Army veteran who is full of guarded optimism and a love of comedy. His counterpart, the Swan, is the Padmé to his Darth Vader, the Evil-Lyn to his Skeletor, and the destroyer of fun. Together they use the podcast as a method of increasing their power and skills with both the light and the dark side of the force. They are joined by fellow squad members the Trailer Park Monster/Dark Lord of Brown-Town JD Hutchins, the King of Kalamazoo County Comedy Nolan Johncock, and a rotating cast of friends of the show. When they unite they are, "The Slaptail Squad," a force of humor and idiocy in a world gone completely nuts. Join them, become a part of the great Slaptail Nation, and embrace the collective craziness.

  • Family annihilating fruit bats travel through time causing Nipah virus

    It's the trinity of power this week. You guessed it, Beaveman, Swan, and JD bring the idiocy and the fun this week.

    Swan starts us off with, "This Weeks POS," as the trial of extended family/family annihilator Paul Caneiro comes to an end. He definitely qualifies as a POS. Hope he gets fitted with a sundress. She then transitions to a story about a local Grand Rapids, Michigan man who also annihilated his family. WTF, another POS.

    The Dark Lord of Browntown introduces some interesting theories about time that completely fries the Beaveman's brain. Is it plausible? That's for you to contemplate.

    The Beaveman brings it on ,"Not so Grand Rounds," with a discussion about Nipah virus. Gotta love the fruit bat, just don't love it that way you weirdo.

    And of course, the Swan ends the show with, "Dumb Jokes with the Swan." Is she actually getting better? You gotta give her credit, she is telling jokes to Beaveman and JD who just have to make idiot comments the entire time.

    Thank you to all of our listeners throughout the world! We love you! We hope we help you forget about the day-to-day crap.

  • Beads, Beans, Boobs, Vampires, and Voodoo
    Feb 15 2026

    Send a text

    Beaveman and Swan return from New Orleans with videos to share and knowledge to impart. Joined by that broad from the eastside of the state, (the claw queen) Kate Dore, they have a fun little chat about what New Orleans has to offer.

    Ever wonder how you get beads these days in NOLA?

    Are the Red Beans and rice epic? Are boobs abundant? Should you fear the Vampires? Do you have preconceived notions about Voodoo?

    Well, you probably won't get many correct answers from the Beaveman, but he's going to pretend like he knows what he is talking about anyway.

  • I think there's a screwworm on my Ringdocus
    Feb 8 2026

    Send a text

    This week the squad unites for a typical idiotic chat session. Right out the gate, the Swan aka energy vampire and destroyer of fun, bores the crap out of the squad with her very long crime report. You cannot expect the squad to listen intently. It's like 5th grade English class all over again. The Beaveman brings it hard with Not So Grand Rounds. This week, he covers that flesh eating New World Screwworm, complete with pictures. Then Drippy Steve blows it. Of course he does. His idea of telling us his plan to talk about something cool is even more boring than Swan. Leave it to Drippy to take a dope topic and make it lame. The Trailer Park Monster saves the day by telling us about the Rindocus, which let's face it, just looks like a really bad taxidermy job, but it's still a cool story. Oh, and dumb jokes with Swan. Don't worry, she is still really bad at it. At some point the Beaveman plays audio of a joke he is working on. He and Steven are working off the same premise to see who has the better joke. Enjoy!
