Best Villain 2005: Worst Possible Winner w/ Maggie Grossman

00:00 / 3:18:46

Almost two months ago, Kenny and Ben recorded their longest episode ever with their pal Maggie. Now, due to a multitude of issues (Kenny’s laptop breaking) that episode went unreleased and the show went on hiatus much earlier than scheduled. But no longer. Presenting now, our biggest episode ever. Ben Stiller won Best Villain for his turn in Dodgeball but when the competition is A Series of Unfortunate Events, Collateral, Mean Girls, and Spider-Man 2, was he really the best choice? Spoiler alert: no he was not. Our trio breaks down why plus talks a lot about stuff I no longer remember because this was recorded months ago. Enjoy! The pod returns in September.

Tori (@torilinnea) returned to discuss the beginning of the cancer arc with S04E14 “Momento Mori”! The writers bring us some high quality angst as Scully learns she has cancer and while she’s getting treatment, Mulder runs off action hero style to find answers, accompanied by the Lone Gunmen.

The last time that Simon Sweeney was on the show, he had just watched his first ever episode of Scooby-Doo. This time around, he watched his second. We couldn’t have picked a more classic episode to discuss this week, it’s either the second or third episode of Scooby-Doo ever, depending on who you ask. Listen along as Ethan and Simon discuss Fred’s mystery solving process, Daphne’s womanly intuition and Scooby’s love of John Wayne.

This week, we’re back in What’s New Scooby-Doo territory with a very odd episode featuring a 30-foot coral creature and celebrity guest Smash Mouth. First-time guest Owen joins Ethan to discuss one-man volleyball, sand art vs sand play and the ethics of building a reefway. But wait! There’s so much more! Ethan lists the cast of G-Force, Owen reads from a lost Scooby-Doo joke book and they play an inaugural round of ‘Smash Mouth or not Smash Mouth!’
