Ep. 171-Animals, Schmanimals, Part 1: Real Life Critters Sep 16, 2016

Show notes

In this episode—the first installment in a potential trilogy—Ronald, Steve and John look at movies about animals, naming some of their favorite creatures from the silver screen. Most of them are furry; all of them are memorable. They also talk about THE LOBSTER, a movie that is not really an animal flick, despite the title.

Ep. 169-Marvel Schmarvel w/ Jason Conti Aug 15, 2016

Show notes

Friend of the show Jason Conti joins Ronald, John, and Steve for a few minutes of juvenille NSFW banter (sorry, Jason's mom!) followed by a thorough rundown of the thirteen films released thus far in the big budget soap opera that is the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Ep. 168.5-Suicide Squad Aug 05, 2016

Ep. 168-TeeVee SchmeeVee Part Six: Stranger Things Jul 29, 2016

Ep. 167-Catch Up, Ronald! Jul 22, 2016

Show notes

It's our loopiest episode in a long time, with Ronald showing up late, a chat about the waning relevance of Steven Spielberg's name, an appreciation of the surprisingly emotional indie flick Swiss Army Man, and a mystery guest popping in for the last segment.

Ep. 166.6-Ghostbusters Jul 15, 2016

Show notes

Paul Feig's remake of Ghostbusters, starring a murderer's row of funny women, is out now, and it provides a nice opportunity for Ronald, John and Steve to discuss the film's pre-release controversy, the illogical whining of angry nerds, and the way some silver screen stereotypes persist. Oh, also, we really liked the movie.

Ep. 166-FMK: NSFW Jul 08, 2016

Show notes

In what may be our most crass episode, based purely on F-word usage, we do a few rounds of F/M/K, except instead of objectifying people, we objectify their careers. The premise is, we draw the names of actors and directors from a woolen Mongolian shepherd's hat, and pick their high and low points.
