Episode Sixty Six: "Sixty-six times? That's gotta hurt."

In this episode, we focus a bit more on entertainment than we usually do in other shows. We cover Big Bang Theory, The Office, V, Parks and Recreations, Community, Glee, Star Wars Clone Wars and a few others.


We take a specific interest in the portrayal of Luminara Unduli and her relationship with her padawan Bariss Offee and contrast her with the other Jedi fighting in the clone wars.


Then we discuss some douche-bags. Nothing all that ire inducing really. Just a few things that are mildly bugging us this week.


We get to the voice mail eventually, as you will hear, and then call it a show.

Music this week is from:
Helmet - "Milquetoast"
Simple Plan - "American Jesus"
Pennywise -"500 Miles"
At least, I think those are the artists that recorded these songs.
Although, I am sure about Helmet.

Episode Sixty Five

Episode Sixty Five: "That is a noble cause. Give me the sixty-five, I'm on the job."

Contained within are the contents of another episode of "Are You Serious?" This time around, Chris and Frank discuss the economic stability of Venezuela and it's long term impact on the region's native population.

Wait...WHAT?

In actuality, they discuss Astroboy, Star Wars The Clone Wars, Metalocalypse, The Venture Brothers, Community, 30 Rock, Michelle Bachmann's "Freedom Rally," why it's really really bad that John Boehner can't pronounce the word hyperbole and the fact that he can't tell the difference between the Constitution of the United States and the Declaration of Independence. Also discussed is the tragedy at Fort Hood. Our condolences go out to everyone affected by the terrible shootings.

That's just some of what's discussed this time around. We recorded a little early, so no real feedback to speak of. Coincidentally, that does make for a shorter show.

Music this week is from:
Guns 'N Roses - "Civil War" - from Use Your Illusion II
Too Much Joy - "Clowns" - from Son of Sam I Am
Dethklok - "Bloodlines" - from Dethalbum II

A special thanks to MSNBC and Keith Olbermann. We use a clip in this show to illustrate Chris' douche of the week. Thanks for not suing us!

Episode Sixty Four

Episode Sixty Four: "Here's the sixty-four dollar question - what do you do with a vegetable?"

Hello everyone! Here is episode Sixty Four for your listening pleasure. This week, we decided to forgo notes and just wing it. You think we could do that considering all the time that we have been doing the show. Well, you might be surprised how much two simple words on a piece of paper would have helped us this week. Those words? "Koi pond."

Anyway, this week we discuss the normal things, a little T.V. (including the pilot of "V," some current events, and some complete jerks. Then we listen to some listener feedback and try to wrap up the show. It's kind of a disjointed ending, but it does eventually come to a close!

Don't forget to follow this link to witness the comedy genius that is JACK CHOP! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADqAWUoVtbs Is the Lynn reference at the end a nod to Outside the Cinema? Maybe... but do you think I would have mentioned it if it wasn't confirmed? While you're at it why not check out some of the other movies that Adam Green and Paul Solet have made? Movies like "Hatchet" and "Grace."
