So if you wanna find out what the Queen does all damn day, or why rich people love makin' horses have sex, or what the elite and white trash have in common (it's more than you think), and you wanna hear it all in the syrupy sorghum drawl of two country ass comic buddies, then check out Puttin' On Airs.
Puttin On Airs answers the question you’ve all been asking yourself: When am I gonna hear two dudes who sound like Slingblade give me a history lesson on Marie Antoinette?

    109 - A.I. Robots + John Wilkes Booth Pt. 2

    Hey Airheads! Fuck it, this episode is coming out early!!!

    This week, Trae starts the show off by bringing to Professor CHO's attention that a millionaire has just engaged in a social experiment where he goes homeless on purpose with the goal of becoming a millionaire all over again within a year....we'll let you guess what we've got to say about that lol

    Then, Professor CHO dives back in on The Booth family, and gives details about that fateful night in April when John Wilkes Booth assassinated President Lincoln.

    Then, as he does, Trae rounded out the episode by getting us up to speed on what they are doing in the Robot-Butler world!

    (Timestamps below description!)

    Gather round, Ye Olde Airheads, for this week we have quite the show for you!

    With Sir Trae confined to the quarters of a Sky Car, we seek the help of a Fair Maiden knownst round these parts as Lady Kirby! (Corey's Sister for those just joining us!)

    After some up top banter about their recent trip to The Zoo, Lady Kirby and Professor CHO attempt to get to the bottom of the origins of their Mother's insistence on "Putting on airs", including a discussion on her proclivity to refer to HBO as "Home Box Office"

    Then to the real meat and potatoes of the program, our Royal Duo performs various monologues by The Bard himself in both Redneck, and classical Shakespeare fashion!

    And as always, the episode ends with letters from our dear listeners!

    105 - Madame Tussauds & Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow!

    (Timestamps below description!)

    Hello, Airheads! This week we have stupendously pleasant show for you!

    After making their apologies for jumping the gun on the Kate Middleton conspiracy theories, Lord Trae and Professor CHO spend a spot of time discussing old superstitions, one of which is the fear (amongst Korean Papaws) that a ceiling fan will steal your soul!

    Lord Trae then shares a photograph he saw earlier this week of Her Royal Highness Queen Victoria Photobombing her Son and Daughter in Law at their Royal wedding... theres more to that story, but we shant give it away here! This leads Professor CHO into his topic which was an exploration of the origins of the famous Hollywood Wax Museum: Madame Tussauds!

    Closing out the show, Lord Trae brings to our attention a not-so-quite-as-known-Dictator, the former President (and still current Dear Leader) of Turkmenistan, Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow! And lord, what a character he is!

The *perfect* podcast blend of comedy, history, current events, politics, lifestyle. There is literally no other show that entertains me as much as POA and I’m not quite sure how both Trae and Correy haven’t both yet been offered bajillion dollar contracts by Netflix or CC or something. Love YALL!
