ExplicitEpisode 105 – Of Finding Different Ways to Fit Comfortably | Dawn, coming off the couch a couple days late after being laid low with some flu-ish thing, makes up for lost time with an extra-long episode fueled by cold medicine and the need to figure out how to best fit herself into what she wants to be.

ExplicitEpisode 104 – Of Feelings & Fillings & Finding Your Quiet Place | Sometimes the best place to get away is inside your own head: How Dawn is pursuing the art of being Zen in her uncertain present, how Taquitos and Tequila and a good magazine keep her feeling centered, and how the cracks in a friendship don’t need to become fissures, so long as you fill them [...] | 1/30/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 103 – Of Broken Toasters and Lying to Kick It | Dawn is laid low over the weekend by a stomach illness, which is perfect timing for a woman trying to lay out the pieces of her life and build interesting machines from them.

ExplicitEpisode 102 – Of Art and The Sharing of Special Things | Sometimes we look at our own lives through the prism of pop-culture, and that’s the overriding theme of today’s show.

ExplicitEpisode 101 – Of Waking Up and Moving Forward | So, what’s changed? Something has to have changed. You can’t go through what Dawn and Patrick went through and not be changed somehow. And if you listen to only the first 15 minutes of this episode – you’d be wrong. Because Dawn and Bobby spend most of that time talking about Gabe Kaplan, Poker, and [...] | 1/9/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 100 – Of Buckled Swashes, and Podcast Affirmations (w/ Jaime Kirk) | Well, there wasn’t anything exactly planned for the 100th episode, but this episode pretty much encapsulates what made the previous 99 work the way they did: Special Guest Jaime Kirk of PDX Yar tells the tale of how he started out a sad tuba player and ended up a stage combat supervisor responsible for choreographing [...] | 11/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 099 – Of Science and Chili | Dawn explores the link between ritual and satisfaction when it comes to food. The show is all about food, and science, and whether there can be such a thing as a $100 turkey, whether it could really taste that much better, how pet food marketing is geared towards selling beef leavings and reconstituted grain towards [...] | 11/2/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 098 – Give the Gift of Guff | An act as small as turning the heat on launches Dawn into a world where fistfuls of guff are given to many who deserve it.

ExplicitEpisode 097 – Of Locked Doors and Haunted Houses: A Quick Taste of Dave Helfrey | Dawn Taylor has triumphed over a lot of things in the almost 2 years of this show. But the only thing that could stop her from doing a full show today? A locked door. This on the day that Dave Helfrey returns to Hamfisted to talk about the latest edition of Fright Town, what kind [...] | 10/19/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 096 – Of Short People and Sexy Laundry | It is pretty important that you pick the right movie for your first date.

ExplicitEpisode 095 – Of Hugh Jackman and Staying Healthy | How in the hell does a man like Hugh Jackman fight robots and sing showtunes while pounding as many beers as he does?

ExplicitEpisode 094 – Of Battles and Bourbon | There are battles that go on in everybody’s head – quiet, fierce battles over the many decisions we have to make every day. And those battles get more contentious when the head in question belongs to a smartass like Dawn Taylor, or Fatboy Roberts. Their adventures on the tightrope of inappropriate statements, how best to [...] | 9/28/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 093 – Of Helping People Through Narcissism | Some say rage fuels the internet, but that’s not the case. It’s narcissism. It’s the reason “social media” has essentially just become how people socialize, period – people sharing things that likely would never have been shared 20 years ago, because there weren’t the means, and because nobody would have known what to do with [...] | 9/21/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 092 – Of Fumblings Toward Fashion & Necessary Etiquette | Dawn has decided that it’s time to make a change. The catalyst? A bunch of pictures surfaced on facebook that caused Dawn to realize that her outward appearance didn’t accurately reflect her inward state-of-mind. And so a discussion broke out on the realities of NEEDING a personal sense of style, no matter how superficial it [...] | 9/14/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 091 – Of Sickness and Social Anxieties | If you aren’t comfy with the ideas of germs and microbes, then this episode might induce a severe case of heebie-jeebies. Dawn saw Steven Soderbergh’s “Contagion,” and it made her want to dive into a pool made of Purell. From there, a list of past maladies was shared, and a variety of remedies (home-spun, pharmaceutical, [...] | 9/7/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 090 – Of Procrastination and Getting What You’re Worth (Whatever that is) | Returning from a week of trials and tribulations, Dawn speaks on the changes that Patrick has gone through in the last 2 weeks, including some sexy scruff and a nougat gland. Well, he’s working on the 2nd part, along with not frustrating the hell out of Dawn, and vice/versa. A follow up to a previous [...] | 8/31/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 089 – Of Pride & the Meth Trade (w/ Vampires) | It’s another primarily pop-culture focused episode of Ham-Fisted, as the Breaking Bad discussion that’s been threatening to break out finally bubbles over like a poorly cooked batch of crystal. Dawn examines what makes Walter White tick, and why he’s maybe the most fascinating anti-hero on television. From there, we delve into the ever tumbling trainwreck [...] | 8/17/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 088 – The Secrets of Marital Success | After a quick recap/gloat session regarding Geek Trivia, Dawn and Fatboy slide sideways into a discussion about how they make their respective relationships work, and the answer includes lots of good-natured verbal abuse, mutual insanity and tons and tons of patience and acceptance. Also discussed: Fatboy’s wife is scared of being on Rick Emerson’s talkshow, [...] | 8/10/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 087 – Of Simians and the Need for Secrecy | Dawn went and saw a movie about super-intelligent apes who get pissed off at humans and, apparently, they RISE up. Fatboy noted that titling this film (which isn’t a documentary at all, unfortunately) “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” sorta gives away a significant element of the story, and that observation leads to a [...] | 8/7/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitEpisode 086 – The Days of Wine and Chocolate | A gourmet episode of Ham-Fisted Radio today, and not just because Dawn and Fatboy have their NPR voices on – the entire show is all about people of low-budget means fumbling towards more sophisticated tastes, and why that seems to threaten the hell out of people. It seems strange that developing a taste for wine [...] | 7/28/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
