Episode One Hundred Forty Eight

Episode One Hundred Forty Eight: "You are in violation of Section 148 of the Penal Code: Evading arrest."

This week, we recorded late after many attempts to do the show earlier. It ended up that Frank was too busy editing the video he has been talking about, so we did this show with a special guest host. We start off by reviewing Kung Fu Panda 2, X-Men: First Class and the theatrical presentation of the extended cut of Lord of the Rings: Return of the King.

From there, we move on to some crazy news stories, including the FACT that becoming a Born Again Christian changes your DNA. For realisies.

DNA and religion - it changes it!

Saying "Twitter" and "Facebook" is not allowed on French T.V.

Episode One Hundred Forty Seven: "We'll continue this audit in my hotel room, Ritz-Carlton room 147. Meet me there tonight. And PS: I play rough."

It's that time of year again; the Apple keynote was a few days ago, and Frank is all excited about what's coming in the next few months. Chris is... not as impressed. Regardless, neither host had time to watch anything worth talking about this week, and Frank is really excited to discuss it.

Next, we have two segments of news stories that range from crazy to sad and pathetic all the way back to crazy again.

Here are links to most of the stories we covered:

Episode One Hundred Forty Five

May 27th, 2011 by areyouseriouspodcast

 

Episode One Hundred Forty Five: "The Chinese camps, we'll never know, but say 20 million. So 130, 145 million dead. Not all that impressive."

This week, we talk about the car accident Chris had on the highway two days prior to recording. Then we move into the regular stuff, like season finale episodes and some movie talk.

After that, we discuss what Harold Camping is doing now, why he should be prosecuted and whether or not he and his followers should be considered terrorists. Then we discuss the child whose parents have chosen to remain genderless, Obama following tradition and downing a pint of Guinness. We touch on Limbaugh's ratings and finish out with Chris complimenting a Republican. Seriously. And, it has nothing to do with the blow to the head from the car accident.

Here are some link to the stories discussed.

Sean Duffy will Eliminate Social Security and Medicare

Obama Downs Pint Of Guinness

Joe Walsh says Scott Brown Should Be "Ashamed of Himself"

Harold Camping's Followers are "Flabbergasted" the World Did Not End

Rush Limbaugh's Rating Drop

Harold Camping Quick Interview

Parents Keep Child's Gender Under Wraps

Just when we are all set to go to listener feedback, Chris remembers a story from his local news that he just has to talk about.
 57 Minutes: Woman Claims to Have Been to Heaven and Back

Be sure to listen to feedback, we have more awesomeness on the line. Although, if I didn't know better, I could swear that Reverend Scott didn't like us very much. Take a listen and you be the judge.

Chris Brickelmyer - "Are You Serious Theme V.6"

Duran Duran - "Ordinary World"

Guns 'N' Roses - "Bad Obsession"
