These drunk idiots had no idea what was in store for them in 2014...

One year ago, Sean Tuohy and Daniel Ford spent their day off at J. J. Foley’s in downtown Boston recording a YouTube video that announced a podcast and website called Writer’s Bone (it turned out their bloopers reel was more entertaining).

The pair recently got together to discuss the more than 50 interviews they conducted in 2014, their favorite posts from the website, and what lies ahead for the podcast in 2015. 

What, that wasn’t enough for you? Fine, here are some pictures from the past year.
