With Michel stuck in the past, David is joined by special guest CC to discuss whether Blink is simply too good to even talk about at this point.

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.

In an episode that has a very uh, well…look, you’ll know exactly what happened as soon as you hit play, David is joined by Peter Quinn to discuss Doctor Who’s first (kind of??? because it doesn’t really stick to that run time) real-time episode, as well as Big Finish, Doctor Who videogames, and MUCH more. It’s 42!

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!’

David, Michel, Sam, and Nathan all get together to discuss cigars, break down their thoughts on that big casting news (we’re recording this super-late), AND play two different games! All that, and more, it’s The Lazarus Experiment!
Best Villain 2004: Ken Ben: Volume 46
/
RSS Feed
Kenny and Ben are on an epic mission of revenge. Whoops did we say revenge? We meant “ranking another year of Best Villain nominees.” Lucy Liu won for her turn as O-Ren in Kill Bill: Volume 1, but is she really a better villain than the villains of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003), Charlie Angels: Full Throttle, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, and Phone Booth? Kenny and Ben get into it while also talking about their limitations in finding interesting things to say about great movies, how one of them didn’t realize that The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was a remake, the mesmerizing weirdness of Full Throttle, if Barbossa is too boring compared to the other larger than life characters in Pirates 1, the long development cycle of Phone Booth, and more. It’s as much as fun as being a pirate probably.

The last time she was on the show, Jesse Catherine Webber made a commitment. The next time she was on the podcast would be the first utterance of the ‘Ruh-Roh’ award. Was she successful? You will have to listen to find out, but I can assure you it is a very bad episode of Scooby-Doo. This week, the gang goes to Outer Space with self-proclaimed science advocated Bill Nye and Neil Degrasse-Tyson. Listen as Ethan and Jesse try to make sense of these two figures’ public personas. Ethan does a cold read from Neil Degrasse Tyson’s Twitter. Jesse finds a way to bring up baseball. And together they speculate about the tv show Velma weeks before we saw the first look. Heavy Meddle is back baby!
