Episode One Hundred Twenty Five

Episode One Hundred Twenty Five: "What the f**k do you call 125 murders in 5 years?" "Work in progress." 

 

This week, we talk about a few movies that we saw. Tron Legacy, Yogi Bear and The Other Guys to name a few. We don't linger on that too much, because we then move on to listener submitted news stories.

From Palin clubbing a dog (is that a real story?) to Michael Steele citing Tolstoy but quoting Dickens, out loyal fans dredge up some of the dumbest things that happened recently and present them to us for dissection. We then take a couple of turns on Mental Floss' Amazing Fact Generator. It should be fun.

Tucked in the middle of all this is a funny re-scripting of the conversation that Luke, Han and Ben had upon their exit from hyperspace headed toward Alderaan. We make this sort of like a live radio play, complete with music and sound effects. We hop you enjoy it!

And, what show would be complete without Reverand Scott's voice mail? Well... we shall see. We recorded early and I'm not going to say if he got it to us in time.

Music this week is from:

Chris Bricklemyer - "Are You Serious? Theme V.1"

Daft Punk - "Recognizer"

John Williams - "Trash Compactor"

Alan Silvestri - "The Future"

Concrete Blonde - "Everybody Knows"

Episode One Hundred Twenty Four

Episode One Hundred Twenty Four: "Do you have a Renick, an Al E. Renick, Flight 124 to London?"

 

This episode marks the last show we will put out in 2010. We mark this year-end milestone by... doing the exact same thing we do every week. Talk about some recently seen things; Black Swan, 8: A Mormon Proposition, Nightmares in Red, White and Blue, Police Academy 2 through 5 and some more random stuff.

From there, we move into news stories. Pedophile priests, Sarah Palin, word of the year, 50 proof God does not exist and Saturday hate mail from the Daily Kos all work their way into the conversation.
We talk a bit about winter weather, overprotective parents and restrooms, closing during snow emergencies, how poorly Cambridge cleared their sidewalks (today, they were fine, but yesterday...) and pretty much any random thought that popped into our heads. Like, iPhones, and what Chris really hates about Star Wars.

 

Stay tuned after the closing music for a real infomercial and a reply from Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth of Futurama fame.

Music this week is from:

Chris Bricklemyer - "Are You Serious? Theme V.1"

The Art Of War - "Enlightened"

Social Distortion - "Ghost Town Blues"

Alice Cooper - "Elected"

Concrete Blonde - "Everybody Knows"

Episode One Hundred Nineteen

Episode One Hundred Nineteen: "It retails for around $119.95. Shop smart, shop S-Mart."

 

 

     This week, Frank has caught up on "The Walking Dead." Almost, he still needs to see the most recent episode. We also discuss the newest Harry Potter film, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part One." We also discuss some of the more recent episodes of Glee, Modern Family, 30 Rock, Community and some others.

     In the second segment, we talk about a little girl named Katie and the problems she has been having at school, all because of something she really likes. Read the full story here and read what has happened since her story had been told.

     From there, we talk about some recent developments in the Catholic Church and some other locations of incredible bad judgment. We also talk a bit about a new GOP house member that wants his free government health insurance NOW! And, don't forget about Governor Jan Brewer and her new Arizona death panels for the poor on state insurance.

Music this week is from:

Chris Bricklemyer - "Are You Serious Theme V.1"

Guns N Roses - "Paradise City"

Bad Religion - "Don't Pray on Me"

Episode One Hundred Sixteen

Episode One Hundred Sixteen: "The Star Wars Prequel Geek Out!"

 

This week, since Chris is away in Las Vegas, we have another Star Wars themed episode. Since we covered the original trilogy already, we thought it was only fair to cover the prequel trilogy.

Music this week is all from John Williams.
