After Hour Ep. 2: Start Taking Facebook Seriously
2026/09/10
Where have Ian and Liv been? Vacation? That's hysterical. But they're back, and they're bringing you more episodes, starting with an After Hour episode following Ian & Jacob's latest episode. You literally could not BE more welcome.
Also, Ian and Liv discuss the mortality of Lake Erie.
Ep. 109: The Beast of Gévaudan
2026/08/27
Praying your demons away doesn't always work.
In this one, Ian is joined by his friend Jacob as they delve into the unsolved, violent, and dramatic history of the Beast of Gévaudan (and yes, Ian just learned he can make the little accent over the "é"). A seemingly mythical beast is terrorizing 1700s rural France, maiming and killing hundreds. And from the king's palace to the outskirts of society, panic is rapidly spreading as not one person can figure out how to stop the beast.
Also, Jacob highlights the failure of Arizona's public schools. Ian spoils Christianity's biggest plot twist.
Disaster After Hour: A Collective IQ of 9
2026/07/10
Y'all asked for more content, and Ian & Liv really scraped the bottom of the barrel to give it to you. Enjoy your hosts of Disaster Hour as they sit and talk about absolutely nothing for 27 minutes after recording episode 108.
Really, we cannot understate the relevance of their conversation enough.
Ep. 108: The 2011 Joplin Tornado
2026/07/09
A face full of bleach is often unpredictable.
In this one, Ian and Liv talk about a massive, mile-wide tornado that struck Joplin, Missouri in 2011. The damage to the city was catastrophic, including the total destruction of a major hospital, making this tornado one of costliest and deadliest tornados in recorded history.
Also, Liv locks her cats in the basement. Ian is Akron's biggest slut.
Ep. 107: Animal Attacks, Vol. 3
2026/06/18
Friends don't let friends play with venomous animals.
In this one, Ian and Liv are joined by Ian's neighbor & Liv's former coworker Emma for the THIRD compilation of animal attacks! Tigers, alligators, bears, and venomous critters top the list in this installment of Natural Selection's finest moments.
Also, Ian struggles learning new words. Emma is a feminist icon. Liv has childhood trauma associated with scorpions & iCarly.
Ep. 106: Love Has Won: Cult Madness
2026/05/15
Never join a cult designed for 144,000 people.
In this one, Ian and Liv talk about a shockingly recent cult, where the leader was not only a crazy white lady, but also an alcoholic, conspiracy theorist, and an abusive thief. Her followers were tricked into giving everything they owned,and it was all for the false promise of taking up residency in the 5th Dimension with Robin Williams, Jesus Christ, Whitney Houston, Buddha, and Trump. Clearly, this is all very legitimate.
Also, Liv endorses pickle ball. Ian aspires to be a Babylonian whore. Dakota thinks this is all b******t.
AngryFans, Ep. 4: "Mute the woman"
2026/05/07
Chivalry is NOT dead, though not for lack of trying.
In this one, Liv and Ian read angry and hateful comments from Disaster Hour's angriest fans, coming to you live (definitely not live) from Ian's patio!
Also, Liv plans a Polly Pocket birthday. Ian sees a car he likes.
Ep. 105: Action Park: Waterslides, Whiplash & Mortality
2026/04/30
Waterparks are the result of humanity's hubris of science.
In this one, Ian and Liv revisit one of their favorite episodes for Disaster Hour's 3rd Birthday: Action Park! Throughout the 1980s, Action Park was an outdoor waterpark with waterslides that were straight out of a Stephen King novel. They were dangerous, exhilarating, and built with zero professional architects or rollercoaster engineers. Guests were injured, the park faced lawsuits, and the owner continued dodging the law for decades. Welcome to Action Park!
Also, Justinepremieres as a new guest. Liv doesn't know how to use a calculator. Libby has imaginary friends. Dylan continues winning at life. Bob jumped off a cliff once. Ian confuses Tony Hawk and Stephen Hawking.
Ep. 104: The Vancouver Stanley Cup Riot
2026/04/23
There's a right and wrong way to riot, everyone.
In this one, Ian and Liv talk about a riot that broke out in Vancouver after the 2011 Stanley Cup finals. And it's confirmed to be a fact, that the best way to mentally process your team's loss, is destroying the city in which they're based. Hashtag sarcasm.
Also, Liv's high school math teacher is dead. Ian fantasizes about being placed under house arrest.
Ep. 103: The Viking Sky Cruise Nightmare
2026/04/16
Dangerously close to danger.
In this one, Ian & Liv talk about a cruise from 2019 that got turned upside down (almost literally) when the ship lost power mid-cruise in rough seas. The rescue efforts were daunting, passengers were injured, the grand piano was damaged, but the snow grotto was unharmed.
Also, Liv faces her fear of cruises. Ian loses all creativity.
Ep. 102: North Sentinel Island: Violence, Audacity, and Coconuts
2026/04/09
Coconuts have a shockingly high street value.
In this one, Ian and Liv talk about an island off the coast of India where the inhabitants have remain completely uncontacted by the rest of the world, and have defended their island with primitive violence for the last 200 years. Despite local laws prohibiting island interaction, people (yes, plural) have tempted their fate on North Sentinel Island.
Also, Ian comes up with a new podcast idea. Liv redefines dating.
Ep. 101: The Carrington Event Solar Storm
2026/04/02
Season 10 is here!
In this one, Ian and Liv talk about a cosmic anomaly where the Sun launched a solar storm of magnetism and plasma that blasted the Earth in 1859. The result? Wild auroras and electrical malfunction across the planet. Was it the end of times, or just regular times? Spoiler: it was both and neither.
Also, Liv wishes the Earth would lose power. Ian quotes Charlie the Unicorn.
Episode 100
2026/03/21
Remember what Uncle Stockton taught us: safety is just pure waste.
Get ready to look back at THREE YEARS of Disaster Hour! This episode has games, nostalgia, more Bob content, and an endless supply of clips from the last 99 episodes from Ian and Liv!
Don't forget to thank a horse!
Season 9 Bloopers & Outtakes
2026/03/08
Season 9 was atypical for Ian and Liv in so many ways, so here's the content that didn't make the final cut for all of the season 9 episodes! Enjoy almost a half hour of nonsense, camaraderie, verbal hostility, and straight up miscommunication on the set of Disaster Hour!
Ep. 99: The Annihilation of the Lucy Walker Steamboat
2026/02/26
Bacon can kill you in vast number of ways.
In this one, Ian and Liv revisit the first episode of Disaster Hour: THE one and only Lucy Walker Steamboat, and, of course, her devastating explosion on the Ohio River. Steam engine technology was unregulated, the engineers had no formal training, and alcohol was in the air. Surely, nothing can wrong, right? Well, it can, and don't call me "Shirley."
Also, Ian holds a grudge against a former coworker. Liv reminisces on growing up with an Italian mother.
