At the time we recorded this episode, we didn’t realize that this would be the last one posting before Christmas, which is why we never brought it up. But since it is, we’ve stuffed a few extra tracks into our Christmas comedy music playlist, including songs by Stephen Colbert, Moneyshot Cosmonauts, Richard Cheese, Worm Quartet, TV’s Kyle, Jonathan Coulton, BaldBox, Sponge Awareness Foundation, Consortium Of Genius, and Insane Clown Posse.
On this episode we dig deep into Luke’s psyche in ‘Neurosis of the Month’, we talk about obscure movies we love (in particular “Brain Donors”), and we read your comments and play your voice mails about our huge 10th Anniversary episode last month.
Check out Luke Ski’s shiny new Bandcamp page, LukeSki.bandcamp.com, where for a limited time he has all his merch on sale for the holiday shopping season, including Bad Rapport Best-Of CDs for $2.99 each!

Much like a timelord who recently celebrated his 50th anniversary facing his moment of regeneration, change is inevitable. That’s why for a number of reasons which are explained in this episode, we are altering the format of “Bad Rapport”, making each episode shorter by cutting the number of our talking segments in half, but keeping the same amount of comedy music. We’re going to make a specific effort to have our talk segments be concentrated discussions of what we’re up to, as well as the media reviews we have been lacking lately, recording them away from home so we’ll have no toddler-ruptions. We hope that the result will be a much more entertaining, interesting, hopefully occasionally funny, but at the very least much more tolerable show for you to listen to every 2 weeks.
October 25th, 2013 was the 10th Anniversary of the day Luke Ski met Carrie Dahlby. To mark the occasion, Luke & Carrie went to a restaurant sans spouses, children, and their respective friends, so they could sit down and recount their history together. Circumstances led to them needing 3 separate sessions of this kind to complete the story. Luke trimmed it down a bit in post, and added songs that Luke & Carrie consider significant to their history. Those songs would be by 
If you’re wondering why cartoon Luke & Carrie are dressed up as Firefly characters in this episode’s image, you’ll need to go read the guest strip Luke did for TV’s Kyle’s webcomic 
In this episode we are joined by Ken ‘Madman’ Sherlock, because why call him on the phone when you can have him there in person?
Shockingly, this episode contains no convention recaps at all, and no toddler interruptions until at least half-way through the episode. In this episode, we talk about KFC food innovations, uneventful summer camp memories, outfit-based illnesses, and we start a new segment, “Luke’s Neurosis Of The Week”. We also discuss the recent disappearance of one of Luke’s favorite foods of all time, 
Yes, this is a picture of Darkwing Duck, not Popeye. Whatever.
This episode was edited using a process commonly referred to as ‘throwing it together in a big God damn hurry’, so that I could post it before I left for Omaha. I was successful, in that I was able to start uploading the MP3 to the server from home before I left, and am now posting it to the feed from a hotel room in Coralville, Iowa.
It’s the night before CONvergence, and I’m using my last bit of time and energy before I go to bed to post our huge 3-hour LukeSkiCon 2013 Wrap-Up episode. All the music in this episode is songs from the 2-CD set
