Reckless Speculation - HBO 2015 Jan 30, 2015

Show notes

It's not TV. It's Reckless Speculation! This week we sit down with fellow podcaster Nick Berrios to talk about the best network in all of creation, the Home Box Office or HomeBO for short or HBO for shortest. DJ thinks HBO will be forced to put Game of Thrones on hold until the new books are written because no one has ever stretched one 300 page novel into three two hour long movies with all kinds of new dwarf/elf love triangles and forty five minutes of f*@king Radagast! Nando thinks Westworld will grow faster than the mega hit Game of Thrones thanks to a production team that includes J J Abrams, a man known for quality television that comes to a satisfying conclusion. Nick thinks that True Detective Season 2 will start strong and fizzle once audiences realize that the second guy is Collin Farrell.

MBS 075 - Bracket Piece Jan 26, 2015

Show notes

Big week guys! Big week! We are one week into our Craziest Captain bracket. The amount of votes we are getting is kinda insane. We bring back frequent quest and fellow podcaster Nick Berrios to go through the results of the first round. Nick even knows who some of the guys are! Not all but some. We have a bunch of crazy upsets and the next round of match ups is even crazier. We also go through some Oscar predictions in the beginning because we lack self control. Vote this week on www.madbracketstatus.com/p/polls.html

Reckless Speculation - Movies in 2015 Jan 21, 2015

Show notes

It is clear that 2015 is going to be the biggest single year for movies since possibly 1994. We have assembled Nando and DJ, along with faithful guest Chris Diggins, to speculate about some of the possible successes and failures that we can look forward to this year. Obviously mega hits like Avengers and Star Wars will be great but what about some of the smaller films? Will Mad Max have a strong enough start to reboot the franchise? Will Pitch Perfect 2 sour Anna Kendrick's popularity? What on earth will happen with Fox's Fantastic Four reboot? All of these questions and more will be answered on this week's Reckless Speculation.

Bracketeer Interview - Captain Boomerang Jan 21, 2015

We take a closer look at the round one match ups between the Space, Sea, Superhero, and Other divisions of our Craziest Captains bracket. Some patterns emerge. Are all of the space captains intent on killing their crew members? Are all of the superhero captains incredibly insecure? All of those questions and more will get answered this week.

Bracketeer Interview - The Ghost of Paul McCartney Jan 14, 2015

Show notes

What's that you say? Paul McCartney is still alive? Do we have an interview for you! Apparently, not only was Paul McCartney killed in a car accident in 1966 and it was covered up by the Beatles BUT Paul McCartney chose to, as a ghost, come on Mad Bracket Status to talk about the truth with DJ and Caroline. He talks about the conspiracy, the afterlife, and all kinds of other stuff. Its great.

MBS 072 - The Bracket on the Moon Jan 06, 2015

Show notes

This is it! This week we finally finish the Greatest Conspiracy Theory bracket once and for all. Will is be 9/11 Truth? Will it be the Moon Landing? It will be the Moon Landing. They win. Bracket over. Now onto the future. We bring Mad Bracket Status CTO, Caroline Amaba, on to discuss our new Craziest Captains bracket! This one is going to be fun. Love us again! Also there is a post credits conversation from last week with Zane Schacht about the Star Wars prequels that we thought was too fun to throw away.

Reckless Speculation - Telltale Games Jan 05, 2015

Show notes

This week we sit down with Zane Schacht to recklessly speculate about Telltale Games. Best known for their Walking Dead series, Telltale is working on a lot of interesting projects that make is possible for their 2015 to go in a lot of different directions. What will the third season of The Walking Dead look like? Will Minecraft: Story Mode be a success? What will Telltale's next licensed project be? All of this and more on this week's Reckless Speculation.

MBS 071 - One Bracket Leap for Mankind Dec 31, 2014

Show notes

Did we land on the moon? Was 9/11 an inside job? Probably not. That won't stop us from investigating.

We also discuss the origins of the Jewish holidays and the New York Jets (briefly).
