Episode 37: There Is No Heterosexual Explanation For This Sep 07, 2019

Show notes

Sorry to make y’all wait on this one a bit longer, but I think after three years we’ve earned a little bit of wiggle room. However, the delay was not because we didn’t want to talk about this movie, quite the contrary. We are beyond stoked to finally bring you our coverage of the absolute DCOM classic: Brink! So come along as we grind down a rail into this story of friendship, betrayal, identity, and obviously rollerblading. Because the nineties were a wild time and this movie is the distillation of exactly why.

Emma loves the formula and wants to join another cult. Luke missed out on blading and is ecstatic about the villain.

Minisode: The Second Annual DCOM Choice Awards Aug 17, 2019

Show notes

There is a familiar mood on the air, my loyal DCOMrades, and it has the distinct smell of statuette gold! This can mean only one thing…it’s time for the DCOM Choice Awards! The most magical of nights, where we hand out some accolades to the worthiest and least worthy things we have seen in the past year of DCOMs. So come along to laugh, cry, and feel the seething rage of seeing us snub your personal picks. Ah, awards season!

Emma shows her VAH knowledge. Lucas put in a sad amount of effort.

Thank you so much to everyone who voted on twitter for the awards, and if you missed the polls be sure to follow us (@dcomedypodcast) so you can have your voice heard next year!

Episode 36: Devils and Dirtboards Aug 07, 2019

Show notes

After a brief delay, our Johnny Kapahala: Back on Board episode has made it’s way down the mountain! Good thing dirt-boarding isn’t a racing sport. Or is it? Dyllan joins us once again as we cover the more land-based sequel to the even more classic Johnny Tsunami. Honestly, it’s a movie just as zig-zaggy as riding a board down a mountain.

Lucas has terrible hearing and writes Johnny Tsunami fan-fiction.

Emma thought this sport was fake and freaks out about her bed.

Dyllan forgot to turn off his air conditioning so his audio sounds weird sometimes.

Bonus Episode 5: The Best In The Country Jul 31, 2019

Show notes

I know you all were expecting a normal episode today, but we had some scheduling issues. So instead, we decided to go fishing for charm bracelets in our local river to catch a bonus episode for you all! We finally cover the film fans voted for in our poll, even if we have a lot of trouble actually staying on topic while we talk about it.

Emma loses the location and loves spooky boys. Luke forgets his own age and hates the word straddle.

Episode 35: A Disney Channel Psychological Thriller Jun 30, 2019

Show notes

This month’s episode is coming hot of the presses! We decided to pick up a copy of Read It and Weep, expecting to find a pretty standard story of a high-school student getting accidentally famous. What we didn’t expect to find was a character study of a young girl undergoing a mental breakdown and alienating everyone in her life for no reason other than her hallucination telling her to do so.

Emma soldiers on and wants everyone to stop making their own misery. Luke re-classifies this movie and tells an embarrassing story about Emma.

Talking Points: A Panabaker Double Feature, 2 Descendants 2 Furious, Her Insane Computer, Low-Rent Zac Efron, Stop Making Jason Dolley a Loser, What Were We Doing in 2006, Canadian Schools, Poetry Problems, Big Sad Boy Energy, The Most Insane Pizza Restaurant, A Confusing Writing Contest, Way Too Supportive Parents, Gotta Keep the Gold, ZAP, A Wasted Lenny, Lightspeed Book Printing, Overestimating the Fame of Authors, Disney Channel Adult Party, Why Is Sawyer So Great?, A Total Mental Breakdown on Live TV, An Unfairly Mean Protest, That Is Not How This Works!, All Ecosystems Go, Seaweed Reaction Shots, Why Is There Sushi At a Pizza Restaurant?

Episode 34: Women and Sandwiches May 31, 2019

Show notes

Listen up audience, just because we are covering Freaky Friday this month, you better not try to get out of listening to this episode to go on an uninteresting scavenger hunt! However, we will allow it so long as you do so to find this massive hourglass we are looking for. Still you should stay in and listen anyway, if only to hear us complain about the confusing decisions the filmmakers made both as a movie and an adaptation.

Luke brings back his favorite theory and learns a new phrase. Emma can’t let go of the 2003 movie and would die for Mike. Mercedes pulls of a long con.

Episode 33: On the Cutting Room Floor Apr 30, 2019

Show notes

It may not be Summer quite yet, but you better pack your bags, your musical instrument of choice, and your song book because: we are going to Camp Rock! Come with us as we travel back to the romantic time of 2008 and relive the film that re-introduced the world to Demi Lovato and helped to light the wildfire of Jonas Brothers mania.

Emma gets shook by style and is left wanting more. Luke shares some unpopular opinions and uses the wrong name. Marissa relives her Jonas Brothers obsession.

Episode 32: May the Road Rise Up to Meet Ya Mar 31, 2019

Show notes

St. Patrick’s Day may have passed, but the heart of the Emerald Isle still beats strong in our chests. So, we are going to express our heritage loud and proud this month by reviewing The Luck of the Irish. Join us as we follow the rainbow to find the pot of gold at the end, even if instead of gold we find confusing Leprechaun logic and a surprising amount of American propaganda.

Emma bashes her heritage and is obsessed with pit stains. Lucas flexes his Irish accent and does a one-man show. Austin realizes he knows nothing about Lerprechauns.

Editor’s Note: We were trying out a new recording software and, while it worked pretty well, it did result in a little audio weirdness at times.

Episode 31: Stop Saying Daddy Feb 28, 2019

Show notes

We decided to review Cow Belles this month because you all are a bunch of spoiled, inconsiderate jerks and wanted you to learn something. Now, I know that nothing about the way you behave or act indicates this, but that doesn’t stop everyone from being mean to Aly & AJ so take that! Come and change your ways by experiencing all the fun stuff this movie has…like business management and FDA regulations.

Luke makes a weird analogy and does a great accent. Emma loves manipulating men and wants the movie to be about something else.

Talking Points: The Kim Possible Movie, Lack of Tension, Clueless Shame, The Actor from Everything, The Incredibly Obvious Villain, Butterfly Collecting, A Confusingly Dead Mom, What is a Cotillion?, Ridiculous Party Budget, Accidental Arson, An Uncle Joey Situation, Everyone is Mean to Teenagers, Aly and AJ Never Sing, Mess Humor, Power Point Pacing, Scrounging for Footage, FIND ANYTHING, No Drama, A Random Pizza Scene, The Worst Rich Girls, A Rain Man Reference, Completely New Character Traits, Stop Having Animal Births , Farmer’s Only, Fill-ippe, Pointless Scenes, FDA Regulations, Stealing the Spotlight, The Bad Guy Wins, Alternate Endings

Episode 30: Bullying And Cheating Are Cool? Jan 31, 2019

Show notes

The DCOMedy crew is many things, but one thing we definitely aren’t is smart or athletic. Well sure enough, here comes Genius to judge our abilities of being both. Join us for a film that has kind of aged poorly, as we discover why they don’t really show it anymore as well as a theoretical particle that will change the future of humanity forever! But that’s really more of a side thing to cringey school scenes and hockey.

Luke has trouble pronouncing names and teaches science. Emma finds a new crush and wants to talk about Flubber. Dyllan opens a new corner.
