Episodes

It’s our second Halloween Spooktacular episode, featuring a (PG maximum) foray into seasonal and delightful fare of funny frights. Door-slamming farce leads to portal-opening trench-digging when the old-lady murdering of Arsenic & Old Lace crosses streams with the Christmas-culturally-appropriating Burton-ness of The Nightmare Before Christmas. Listen in on iTunes, Soundcloud, and Stitcher–Teddy Roosevelt lets a bear live to tell its story, Monster Mash revelations are discussed, and our old friend Jimmy Stewart even stops by for a few.

A QUICK HEADS-UP: Our recording equipment got possessed (by the Oogie Boogie?) towards the end, so things end rather abruptly. Hopefully we can get an exorcist in here by the next recording session; we hear it’s their busy season.

Join us in the nuclear waste bubble that is the City, where the dinosaurs are adorable and the humans are monstrosities!

Ready your fidget spinners and alert the Justice Bears, because Walt and Annie are finding the happy medium between the contemplative, optimistic sci-fi of Contact and the grim, gritty Idris Elba-ness of Luther. Episode 30 features thrills, chills, and a shocking second-in-a-row appearance from Matthew McConaughey, who this time around we can all agree is just the worst. Check us out on iTunes, Soundcloud, and Stitcher for our thoughts on 90s-era action, guys with baseball bats, and a surprisingly positive crossover resolution for one of TV’s greatest anti-heroes.

There can be only one in this deadly match-up of the hottest hunks in a crossover world! In episode 29, we’re mashing up the intense drama of male stripping in Magic Mike with the 1980s bananas supernatural fight film Highlander. Join us for our thoughts on hyper-masculine communities, when to leave your found family, and why the real money for hunky guys is in the high-end furniture industry.
