144: The Continuing Adventures of Wioslea: A Star Wars Story Nov 19, 2017

Show notes

This one is 100% fun from start to finish. What does the next decade of Star Wars hold for us fans? What should the next animated series focus on? What's your favorite type of mac and cheese? We answer all these questions and more this episode, resulting in some fantastic ideas for Wioslea that may or may not have surfboards involved. All that plus "buzzer talk," 80s plastic dinosaurs, Keytar Bear, arancini, and a fantastic NeedEm GotEm featuring the Black Series Guardians of Evil 4-pack and the GameStop exclusive Supreme Leader Snoke on his Throne.

Let's go, Warheads! The Star Wars Party Starts NOW! It's time for Brews and Blasters.

P.S. Our curse just got worse. The new Rian Johnson sequel was announced the day after we recorded, so not gonna lie—we'll get into it next week and it's gonna be a real mammajamma! –Chris and Joe

143: The Raid! Nov 11, 2017

Show notes

It's Rhode Island Comic Con weekend and Chris and Joe have 2 things on their mind: meeting Dolph Lundgren and going on an old-fashioned Kenner figure raid! As they prepare for a weekend of infamy, listen in to hear more about weird cheese, Gwildor's bucket of ribs, Sean Astin, Bloodsport and much, much more. Then, a MASSIVE Need'Em Got'Em ensures as the figures pile up as fast as the cardboard, but not before Chris and Joe ponder the magnificence of the B'omarr Monks. Are new t-shirts on the way? You betcha.

The Star Wars party starts NOW! It's time for Brews and Blasters.

Quick note: If you like this episode, inspiration for the action figure raid was provided by a very old episode of the Giant Bombcast. Great show, go check it out!
