  • From Irish Nobility to Cinematic Cult Leader: My Descent Begins
    May 6 2025

    This week on Feral But Funny, Mark Donnelly opens the episode with a royal bang—literally—as he officially renounces his Lordship over a plot of land in Ireland to fully lead the Feral Horde. Trumpets blare, heads are threatened, and chaos follows.

    From the truth behind Cinco de Mayo’s origins, to a misinformed rant about France losing wars, to a passionate defense of AMC movie theaters vs Regal popcorn, it’s a rollercoaster. We talk about the COVID-era awakening, roast Katy Perry’s bizarre new tour, and praise the criminally underrated performance of Ian McShane as Mr. Wednesday in American Gods.

    Finally, we reflect on the death of true art, the obsession with virality, and our growing love for Brittany Broski and The Broski Report, all thanks to her unapologetic authenticity.

    🎧 It’s messy. It’s hilarious. It’s full-on feral.

  • Donnelly's Apothecary and My Path to Evil
    May 2 2025

    🎭 This week on Feral But Funny, we kick things off with a musical bang—literally—with a dramatic rendition of Pirelli’s Miracle Elixir from Sweeney Todd, and dive headfirst into a full-blown love letter to musicals. From Mamma Mia! to Epic: The Musical, Mark unpacks his favorite show tunes and the magic of animated storytelling.

    🧪 But it doesn't stop there—we spiral into Mark’s ever-changing dream careers (doctor? lawyer? marine biologist? villainous soap tycoon?!), and uncover a full-fledged time-travel scam plot that somehow ends with the King being haunted by a plague-era corpse collector. Disney, call us.

    🎨 We also give well-deserved props to animators, especially the incredible fan-made animations for Epic: The Musical, and mourn the lost villain anthem of Yzma in The Sweatbox documentary.

    🌙 To wrap things up, we venture into the unsettling world of lucid dreaming—Mark shares a creepy personal experience, and we read Reddit’s most bizarre dream stories.

    It’s chaotic, theatrical, and just the right amount of unhinged—welcome to Feral But Funny. 🎤🦝

  • An AI, a Direwolf, and a Dead Pope Walk Into a Podcast…
    Apr 24 2025

    The Pope is dead… but I swear it wasn’t me. In this chaotic episode of Feral But Funny, I defend myself against accusations (okay, mostly my own jokes) about overthrowing the Catholic Church and present undeniable proof that the real killer… was the Easter Bunny.

    But we don’t stop there—because why would we? I dive into the wild world of AI, showcase a song I made using ChatGPT, and talk about how artificial intelligence is changing everything from music to daily life. Then, things get even wilder as we explore scientists bringing back direwolves, mammoths, and sabertooth tigers. Which begs the question: If we can resurrect extinct animals, why the hell haven’t we cured cancer yet? Cue my Big Pharma rant.

    If you like absurd humor, conspiracy energy, and aggressively chaotic vibes—this one's for you.
