Latest Episodes:

14. Get A Life Jun 25, 2018

Show notes

If you've never seen Chris Elliot's 1990s sitcom "Get A Life," starring Elliot as something of a psychopath manchild, you are either very fortunate or very unfortunate. You'll simply have to listen to this week's episode to find out which!

13. Metal Gear Solid Jun 11, 2018

Show notes

Chris successfully convinces Kevin to delve into a murky world of conspiracy theories, psycho-sexually motivated cowboys, cyborg ninjas, nuclear-armed bipedal battle tanks, and the Super Baby Method.

12. Star Wars: The NPR Radio Drama May 28, 2018

Show notes

Did you know that NPR created a radio drama of the original Star Wars trilogy, complete with the vocal talents of one Mark Hamill? It's true! Join Kevin and Chris on a warm, cozy auditory jaunt through the worlds of Tatooine, Alderaan, and the decks of the Tantive IV.

11. Problem Child 2 May 14, 2018

Show notes

This time, Seth Millstein ― of Now We Know intro and outro theme fame ― joins Kevin and Chris for a revisiting of Problem Child 2, in which the entire plot hinges on John Ritter being the most undeniably sexually attractive man on Earth.

10. The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T Apr 30, 2018

Show notes

This time, Chris plucks a peculiar children's film out of the fog of 1953: The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T, the first and only movie written by Dr. Seuss! Includes tyrannical piano teachers, upbeat musical numbers, unsettling descriptions of torture implements, and a surprising number of extremely direct Simpsons influences.

9. Captain America (1990) Apr 16, 2018

Show notes

Are you excited for Avengers: Infinity War? If so, you better get familiar with 1990's Captain America first, because the two films are chronologically canonical, and the new one won't make any sense otherwise! Kevin revisits a childhood classic, and Chris is inescapably along for the ride.

8. Wisconsin Death Trip Apr 02, 2018

Show notes

Chris and Kevin dip into a haunting, lilting tide of morbidity, depression, murder, suicide, and cocaine-fueled (or possibly alleviated?) window smashing with 1999's Wisconsin Death Trip. Also: a really ripping recipe for sheepshead stew.

7. Star Trek VCR Board Game Bonus Episode! Mar 26, 2018

Show notes

Feast your ears on the raw, unadulterated audio of Kevin, Chris, and Jason playing Star Trek: The Next Generation VCR Board Game: A Klingon Challenge, the scintillating subject of last week's episode! Bij included.

6. Star Trek: The VCR Board Game Mar 19, 2018

Show notes

Kevin brought a board game, a VHS tape filled with Klingon insults and guest 'caster Jason Rudy to us this time. The board game? The punchily-titled Star Trek: The Next Generation: The Interactive VCR Board Game: A Klingon Challenge. Get ready to experience bij (that's punishment in Klingon) along with us!

5. Sonic Adventure Mar 05, 2018

Show notes

This week, guest star Evan Tognotti presents Sonic Adventure, Sega's disastrous 1998 response to Nintendo's Super Mario 64. Together, Evan, Kevin, and Chris braved Sonic's strange and meandering tale, and came out on the other side with some pointed thoughts.
