Hosts
Brent (Brent Van Tassel; Dave (David J. Moton); and Brad (Brad Taylor) have hosted the Sofa King Podcast since it's inception, with occasional absenteeism of Dave or Brad. All three hosts reside in Bakersfield, CA, USA, Americas, Earth, The Solar System, Milky Way, The Universe. Six hundred episodes released, these three heroes seem unstoppable. Their cryptonite is the word "suiker". Author and tenured professor of English at Bakersfield College, David J. Moton (appearing as Dave) is an orange skinded He grew up in a haunted conference center, and shows numerous signs of being an alien abductee, with a deep fear of grey aliens, so don't mention it. He is a dungeon master; cannibal; miniature painter; collector of select cultural media such as comics; and holds a specialist egg-eating world record. Brad is of Mexican decent, but hides this in the audio format of the show with a tier-two white accent. He grew up in the hood, listens to "hip-hop" music, was a hacker; oil-field worker; infiltrator of the Coca-Cola company; Judo, Jiu-Jitsu, and Magic practitioner and competitor. He specializes in a fresh perspective to the topic of any episode. Brent is the technical and logistics powerhouse behind the podcast. He has been a multiple business owner, and is famous beyond his block. He has interfered with flight traffic; caught Jehovah's Witnesses in a booby trap; and retains a spirit (Mr. Spreckles) in a basement room, by the psychic powers of his beard alone. His other psychic abilities are often evident, but only alluded to on the podcast because he tries to keep them from his wife.

Tyrone

Terry McGhee
Terry McGhee is a fictional character played by one of the hosts, Brad Taylor, while altering his vocals using a method called throating. Terry is an author and poet, as well as werewolf expert. He brings a moral sensibility to the content of an episode.

SK Ultra (the SKult)
The Sofa King Podcast has garnered a cult following both nationally and internationally, with gatherings in Death Valley; Chicago; New York; New Orleans, and outposts in Germany; South Africa; Iceland; Kazakhstan. A 'SKult member of the month' has been celebrated on the show since episode something. Sharing this person's true stories brings the SKult closer together and facilitates them getting to know one another. The SKult does not exclude members who do not contribute financially through Patreon, and such listeners are even elevated and given a special tittle of "Fuck-Face-Peasants" (FFP's). FFP's and non-FFP's alike can receive the accolade and reward of a "Hot Sack", a secret and constantly changing package. However, Patreon-age is strongly encouraged. Detailed accounting records of the show's spending are shipped to randomized people in a program to promote accountability most recently re-named to "Shipping Roulette". The SKult does not have a religious basis or affiliation. A disproportionate proportion of members are JWADist relative to the general US population. The hosts waver between agnostic, atheist, and JWADist. SKult paraphernalia includes various trinklets; clothing; holsters; stickers. And notable totems have been banana phones and plague masks.

Allegations of Racism
No allegations of racism have been made against the podcast or hosts, because listeners are not idiots and understand that race, when brought up, is for the purpose of promoting tolerance through understanding, and the edification of listeners. This has included instances of generalization; impersonation; and other comedic and Devil's Advocate assertions for the purpose of humor.

The Calling Forth of Covid
Episodes on the black death (Episode #); vaccines (Episode #); and especially the Spanish Flu (Episode #), were released prior to the spread of Covid-19. Leading some to speculate that the Covid pandemic of 2020 was thought into existence by bringing such thought patterns into mass consciousness with the release of the episodes dealing with such matters.
