movies TV books whatever that you'd like

[TS]
◼
►
been enjoying the third collection of
[TS]
◼
►
bandit comics from dark horse comics by
[TS]
◼
►
Paul Tobin and kala Coover bandit is a
[TS]
◼
►
sheet and I don't know that she's a
[TS]
◼
►
super her but she's a masked cat burglar
[TS]
◼

in Paris and her adventures are
[TS]
◼
►
delightful and if if you listen to radio
[TS]
◼
►
theatre you will pick this up and go oh
[TS]
◼
►
dear god no wonder he loves it so the
[TS]
◼
►
third book just came out in October the
[TS]
◼
►
first two are sitting happily on my
[TS]
◼
►
shelf of things i love also the black
[TS]
◼
►
beetle by francisco franco mila also a
[TS]
◼
►
masked superhero of sorts a very good
[TS]
◼
►
story it's it's it's been out before but
[TS]
◼
►
i just i finally got it this year and
[TS]
◼
►
I've been doing a lot of nonfiction
[TS]
◼
►
reading because i'm busy writing fiction
[TS]
◼
►
so i've been reading spqr by Mary beard
[TS]
◼
►
which is a really engaging history of
[TS]
◼
►
the Roman Empire you you wouldn't think
[TS]
◼
►
gee I really need to sit down and read a
[TS]
◼
►
book about the roman empire but you'd be
[TS]
◼
►
wrong because this is a really good one
[TS]
◼
►
and wonderland by steven johnson
[TS]
◼
►
who he did a PBS show last year called
[TS]
◼
►
how we got to now and wonderland is
[TS]
◼
►
follow-up to this it's it's sort of an
[TS]
◼
►
interesting look at how the technologies
[TS]
◼
►
and everything everything that has
[TS]
◼
►
basically benefited humanity started out
[TS]
◼
►
as innovations for playthings and
[TS]
◼
►
diversions and entertainment and then
[TS]
◼
►
someone said hey you know we could
[TS]
◼
►
actually use that to do something useful
[TS]
◼
►
so it's kind of an interesting in
[TS]
◼
►
version of things because you know you
[TS]
◼
►
think Oh the car was invented and did
[TS]
◼
►
this and you don't look at what led to
[TS]
◼
►
the car and and his thesis is that
[TS]
◼
►
playthings really influenced a lot of
[TS]
◼
►
this stuff which is kind of wild on the
[TS]
◼
►
fiction side my favorite novel of the
[TS]
◼
►
year so far is Moonglow by michael
[TS]
◼
►
chabon which is sort of a fictional
[TS]
◼
►
memoir because it's about a writer named
[TS]
◼
►
michael chabon and talking about his
[TS]
◼
►
grandfather and a somewhat true details
[TS]
◼
►
and somewhat very not true details and
[TS]
◼
►
it's an interesting blend and it's not
[TS]
◼
►
you're not sitting there trying to piece
[TS]
◼
►
together or what's real and what's not
[TS]
◼
►
you know what really happened to him but
[TS]
◼
►
it's it's really engaging if you if you
[TS]
◼
►
liked Kavalier and clay and Wonder Boys
[TS]
◼
►
and the yiddish policemen's union and I
[TS]
◼
►
think you'll get a kick out of this it's
[TS]
◼
►
it's a lot of fun and there are pockets
[TS]
◼
►
yeah okay so you know your rockets in
[TS]
◼
►
terms of things I just enjoyed doing
[TS]
◼
►
this year I got to go to the concert
[TS]
◼
►
against humanity up in indianapolis from
[TS]
◼
►
our friends at cards against humanity
[TS]
◼
►
which was way longer than anyone
[TS]
◼
►
expected and it was quite delightful and
[TS]
◼
►
I went to the Austin television festival
[TS]
◼
►
where I got to meet heavier griot Mars
[TS]
◼
►
wash of lost in the middle man and got
[TS]
◼
►
to hang out with tom fontana from
[TS]
◼
►
homicide and sink elsewhere who i met
[TS]
◼
►
long ago and got to meet voices tree on
[TS]
◼
►
in person and Tim Goodman in person
[TS]
◼
►
which was great fun and and
[TS]
◼
►
probably i mean the whole thing was
[TS]
◼
►
wonderful but one of the most special
[TS]
◼
►
moments was just actually getting to
[TS]
◼
►
meet Norman Lear and say thank you for
[TS]
◼
►
influencing a huge amount of my
[TS]
◼
►
childhood and he was very gracious and
[TS]
◼
►
he outlasted this all that was like 1am
[TS]
◼
►
in the morning and we all went home and
[TS]
◼
►
he was still partying at the bar so go
[TS]
◼
►
Norman attaboy Norman knows there's my
[TS]
◼
►
year of none things things that I didn't
[TS]
◼
►
read or watch for the show
[TS]
◼
►
yeah that's just like all the other
[TS]
◼
►
stuff that works alright
[TS]
◼
►
Erica what a what things did you like
[TS]
◼
►
this year I quite enjoyed the Doctor Who
[TS]
◼
►
spin-off class which isn't actually
[TS]
◼
►
available on a BBC america yet so sorry
[TS]
◼
►
us listeners but you've got to look
[TS]
◼
►
forward to next spring sometime i like
[TS]
◼
►
that i finished the three watch that
[TS]
◼
►
Stephen and I were doing for gilmore
[TS]
◼
►
girls because we wanted to be ready for
[TS]
◼
►
the new movies which sadly we've only
[TS]
◼
►
watched one of the four new movies yet
[TS]
◼
►
but it was still fun to get all the way
[TS]
◼
►
through and determined that season 7 was
[TS]
◼
►
not as bad as I remember it being
[TS]
◼
►
watching in real-time i highly recommend
[TS]
◼
►
marathoning it works better that way
[TS]
◼
►
I've still been very slowly catching up
[TS]
◼
►
on flash and arrow
[TS]
◼
►
I'm still only the first season of the
[TS]
◼
►
flash so gives you an idea of just how
[TS]
◼
►
far I've gotten but i'm still chugging
[TS]
◼
►
along very slowly and just at the end of
[TS]
◼
►
2016 i discovered a show called the
[TS]
◼
►
younger which I completely fell in love
[TS]
◼
►
with one day before they took it away
[TS]
◼
►
and made it not playable anymore online
[TS]
◼
►
but I've managed to see like I don't
[TS]
◼
►
know quite a few episodes in that one
[TS]
◼
►
day that I had and I'm probably just
[TS]
◼
►
gonna buy it on Amazon because i really
[TS]
◼
►
wanna watch it so check that out if you
[TS]
◼
►
are if you like a it is a half-hour
[TS]
◼
►
comedy about a woman played by Sutton
[TS]
◼
►
Foster whom I love who pretends to be 26
[TS]
◼
►
to get a job in advertising because she
[TS]
◼
►
had taken time off to have a child and
[TS]
◼
►
raise a child and she's actually 40 and
[TS]
◼
►
it sounds like kind of a ridiculous and
[TS]
◼
►
stupid Jackie premise but they treat it
[TS]
◼
►
very well it's it's very well done so
[TS]
◼
►
it was the year of no Doctor Who if your
[TS]
◼
►
doctor who fan a because there was no
[TS]
◼
►
doctor who this year I it was fun to see
[TS]
◼
►
what we can come up with to talk about
[TS]
◼
►
on Verity we did very much sort of
[TS]
◼
►
stretched are stretched our seem to its
[TS]
◼
►
limits and then it also i think aloud
[TS]
◼
►
more time for lazy doctor who for
[TS]
◼
►
Stephen and I to do our other
[TS]
◼
►
incomparable network podcast and we we
[TS]
◼
►
tracked through quite a bit and I'm
[TS]
◼
►
pretty proud of the pace we're going at
[TS]
◼
►
this point it abs and flows but you know
[TS]
◼
►
eventually we'll we'll get through it a
[TS]
◼
►
really cool thing to be able to do is go
[TS]
◼
►
to the now hear this festival and see
[TS]
◼
►
what you guys in person with something
[TS]
◼
►
that I think does not happen often
[TS]
◼
►
enough so that was that was wonderful
[TS]
◼
►
plus getting to see other podcast live
[TS]
◼
►
and in two hours live that was that was
[TS]
◼
►
very cool another in person thing was
[TS]
◼
►
actually getting to meet colleen sims in
[TS]
◼
►
person i took a family vacation to
[TS]
◼
►
sonoma Arizona earlier this year and was
[TS]
◼
►
able to arrange a meet up with her and
[TS]
◼
►
Justin so Stephen and I got to meet in
[TS]
◼
►
person and it was it was just great
[TS]
◼
►
I didn't do a whole lot of reading
[TS]
◼
►
actually i think most of the reading
[TS]
◼
►
that I did was for episode 301 of the
[TS]
◼
►
incomparable all the best words
[TS]
◼
►
yep but it worked out great because so
[TS]
◼
►
many of those books were once that I
[TS]
◼
►
either liked a lot or positively adored
[TS]
◼
►
so even though I didn't get to read a
[TS]
◼
►
lot of other things my podcast reading
[TS]
◼
►
was at least for that episode top top
[TS]
◼
►
notch and then of course the other
[TS]
◼
►
reading that I do consistently is for
[TS]
◼
►
uncanny magazine which I think has had
[TS]
◼
►
just a kind of a banner year as far as
[TS]
◼
►
his stories that i have been passionate
[TS]
◼
►
about and I still gotten to read the
[TS]
◼
►
store some of the stories for the
[TS]
◼
►
uncanny magazine podcast which is always
[TS]
◼
►
wonderful and that led to probably the
[TS]
◼
►
coolest thing that happened to me this
[TS]
◼
►
year which was winning a hugo award
[TS]
◼
►
everyone in that doesn't quite seem real
[TS]
◼
►
yeah that was that was a very strange
[TS]
◼
►
thing and then also you know some
[TS]
◼
►
particle words also for uncanny and
[TS]
◼
►
charity and the uncomfortable so
[TS]
◼
►
yea even among share URL i'll send it to
[TS]
◼
►
ok that's ok we still need to find room
[TS]
◼
►
for it get 660 that's Rob hang at the
[TS]
◼
►
very last thing on my list is more of a
[TS]
◼
►
sort of a real-world thing and that is I
[TS]
◼
►
got a job this this last year in 2016
[TS]
◼
►
and it is kind of my dream job
[TS]
◼
►
I'm a writer for the government in a
[TS]
◼
►
unit that I'm actually passionate about
[TS]
◼
►
what I'm writing about so it's it's been
[TS]
◼
►
fantastic and I actually work with
[TS]
◼
►
really good dedicated civil service
[TS]
◼
►
which is just a it's a wonderful
[TS]
◼
►
experience in between that and you know
[TS]
◼
►
starting a small business with Stephen
[TS]
◼
►
to produce podcasts on the side has been
[TS]
◼
►
kind of a the beginning of the year was
[TS]
◼
►
kind of rocky financially but at the end
[TS]
◼
►
of the year everything seems to have
[TS]
◼
►
smooth out so well 2016 was was crap on
[TS]
◼
►
a lot of fronts it finished strong and
[TS]
◼
►
in a couple of ways for me so I'm
[TS]
◼
►
I i should say going lego shopping in
[TS]
◼
►
anaheim with you and Stephen was also
[TS]
◼
►
one of my favorite things this is david
[TS]
◼
►
i was gonna say I noticed you mentioned
[TS]
◼
►
the ATX festival and the concert against
[TS]
◼
►
humanity but didn't mention it's all
[TS]
◼
►
getting together an area that was saving
[TS]
◼
►
that for my favorite episode
[TS]
◼
►
now see because it doesn't mind my
[TS]
◼
►
outside the podcast I'm why don't why
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
let's move on to monty monty my favorite
[TS]
◼
►
comic book that i discovered this year
[TS]
◼
►
is called the unbelievable go in pool
[TS]
◼
►
which is extremely silly
[TS]
◼
►
let me explain the premise really quick
[TS]
◼
►
if people haven't heard of this
[TS]
◼
►
character she's actually a brand new
[TS]
◼
►
Marvel character invented in 2016 and
[TS]
◼
►
has her own comic book she started as a
[TS]
◼
►
joke there was the amazing spider Gwen
[TS]
◼
►
which was a version of when Stacy that
[TS]
◼
►
had been bitten by a radioactive spider
[TS]
◼
►
and then one month they had a whole
[TS]
◼
►
bunch of other hypothetical Gwen's like
[TS]
◼
►
the Gwen ventures and there was a joke
[TS]
◼
►
on a Dead Pool cover about Gwen pool
[TS]
◼
►
everybody liked the costume so they
[TS]
◼
►
reconfigure the costume into this
[TS]
◼
►
character who is not Gwen Stacy her name
[TS]
◼
►
is Gwen pool pol ii and she appears to
[TS]
◼
►
have been put into the marvel universe
[TS]
◼
►
from our universe
[TS]
◼
►
whoa she has no powers at all except
[TS]
◼

that she's read a bunch of marvel comics
[TS]
◼
►
so she knows everybody's secret
[TS]
◼
►
identities and she knows all the troops
[TS]
◼
►
so the first thing she does is get
[TS]
◼
►
herself a costume because if you have a
[TS]
◼
►
costume you're a main character and are
[TS]
◼
►
less likely to get randomly killed in
[TS]
◼
►
I love this idea and I'm ordering this
[TS]
◼
►
right now is amazing
[TS]
◼
►
there is a collection called a the
[TS]
◼
►
unbelievable when pool believe it
[TS]
◼
►
the first thing she does is start
[TS]
◼
►
blowing stuff up because whatever it's a
[TS]
◼
►
comic book you people die all the time
[TS]
◼
►
it doesn't matter but she kind of
[TS]
◼
►
discovered that's not true and it she is
[TS]
◼
►
forced to take the universities in more
[TS]
◼
►
seriously but not entirely seriously
[TS]
◼
►
because she knows that for instance
[TS]
◼
►
howard the duck is around and how dumb
[TS]
◼
►
that that's a good for instance it's
[TS]
◼
►
super meta she gets to make jokes to mow
[TS]
◼
►
docs face and hang out with Batroc the
[TS]
◼
►
leaper and i'm really enjoying it
[TS]
◼
►
the other books that i read that i
[TS]
◼
►
really enjoyed this year one was the
[TS]
◼
►
union of the state which is an oral
[TS]
◼
►
history of the comic are the sketch
[TS]
◼
►
comedy group the state who you might
[TS]
◼
►
remember from having a show on MTV in
[TS]
◼
►
the nineteen nineties oh yeah there were
[TS]
◼
►
11 guys and well there are ten guys and
[TS]
◼
►
one woman in the state and they kind of
[TS]
◼
►
taken over the comedic landscape that
[TS]
◼
►
Tom Lennon and ben garant are all over
[TS]
◼
►
david Wayne is all over the place can
[TS]
◼
►
Marino's all over the place and this is
[TS]
◼
►
a really good oral history in which all
[TS]
◼
►
11 people share their memories the
[TS]
◼
►
network people they were arguing with
[TS]
◼
►
share their memories
[TS]
◼
►
it's a super thick book and I went
[TS]
◼
►
through it in a day and if you like the
[TS]
◼
►
kind of comedy that has the earmarks of
[TS]
◼
►
the state this book about how 11 guys
[TS]
◼
►
from nyu somehow got a TV show on MTV
[TS]
◼
►
and then lost it and kind of ruin their
[TS]
◼
►
careers until later when they came back
[TS]
◼
►
is super fun third book i'm going to
[TS]
◼
►
mention keeping the nerd theme is the
[TS]
◼
►
Caped Crusader by glenn weldon closes of
[TS]
◼
►
course one of the panelists on the
[TS]
◼
►
podcast pop-culture happy hour from NPR
[TS]
◼
►
he knows everything about Batman and in
[TS]
◼
►
this book he shares it with us
[TS]
◼
►
that's all I'm gonna say about it either
[TS]
◼
►
you want to read a cultural history
[TS]
◼
►
about Batman or you don't
[TS]
◼
►
I recommend that you do it is great i
[TS]
◼
►
did it is the TV shows i really enjoyed
[TS]
◼
►
bajillion dollar properties which is
[TS]
◼
►
barely a TV show because it is on seeso
[TS]
◼
►
a streaming app allowed i enjoyed it
[TS]
◼
►
anyway it is executive-produced by cool
[TS]
◼
►
appeal i sock who is on the airwolf
[TS]
◼
►
podcast who charted the wife of Scott
[TS]
◼
►
Aukerman of comedy bang bang
[TS]
◼
►
it's produced by comedy bang bang
[TS]
◼
►
productions and also common and Robert
[TS]
◼
►
grant we just mentioned has been having
[TS]
◼
►
been part of the state
[TS]
◼
►
they also produce at midnight in a bunch
[TS]
◼
►
it's a mostly improvised show that's
[TS]
◼
►
making fun of real estate shows and it's
[TS]
◼
►
there have been two seasons already in
[TS]
◼
►
2016 each season is six episodes long it
[TS]
◼
►
looks like they may have been shot in
[TS]
◼
►
six days to but if you pay attention
[TS]
◼
►
when they go to these lavish mansions
[TS]
◼
►
that they have to sell three of per
[TS]
◼
►
episode they you reuse certain mentions
[TS]
◼
►
a lot and I think it's great to see
[TS]
◼
►
oh now we're shooting from this angle
[TS]
◼
►
and putting this captain on so it says
[TS]
◼
►
no steam shower 19 Grotto's and stuff
[TS]
◼
►
like that the other TV show i want to
[TS]
◼
►
mention is also barely a TV show called
[TS]
◼
►
window warriors and is on the game show
[TS]
◼
►
it was terrible but i really enjoyed it
[TS]
◼
►
too competitive reality show about
[TS]
◼
►
people who make shop display windows
[TS]
◼
►
like for macy's like I just have to say
[TS]
◼
►
that that sentence was maybe the most
[TS]
◼
►
Monteith I stand by it somehow this
[TS]
◼
►
terrible show had a
[TS]
◼
►
hundred-thousand-dollar prize because
[TS]
◼
►
some genius realized they can get the
[TS]
◼
►
entire show under written by having it
[TS]
◼
►
entirely be advertisements so there are
[TS]
◼
►
two of like the eight episodes sponsored
[TS]
◼
►
by macy's and they're designing macy's
[TS]
◼
►
think we're watching people figure out
[TS]
◼
►
how to advertise macy's to you
[TS]
◼
►
and then there's a hot topic episode it
[TS]
◼
►
I enjoyed that show partly for its
[TS]
◼
►
audacity and pretending to be a
[TS]
◼
►
television show but also its was
[TS]
◼
►
interesting seeing people seeing the
[TS]
◼
►
conflict some of the contestants had
[TS]
◼
►
between making a window display that
[TS]
◼
►
will please the eye and making a display
[TS]
◼
►
that will sell the product there was one
[TS]
◼
►
guy on the show i'm pretty sure was just
[TS]
◼
►
a visual artist it doesn't actually work
[TS]
◼
►
in advertising and I was gonna say my
[TS]
◼
►
favorite movie of the year was probably
[TS]
◼
►
Zootopia which is weird because the
[TS]
◼
►
first time i watched utopia I got super
[TS]
◼
►
bored didn't finish it the first time I
[TS]
◼
►
watch it I was viewing it as a buddy cop
[TS]
◼
►
movie and it seemed really by the
[TS]
◼
►
numbers and boring the second time i
[TS]
◼
►
watched it I realized it was a film noir
[TS]
◼
►
and a love story and I really really
[TS]
◼
►
liked at that time I think that's it
[TS]
◼
►
alright and i hated everything else ok
[TS]
◼
►
good okay except things that will bring
[TS]
◼
►
up in the talking about our podcast
[TS]
◼
►
section all right especially John
[TS]
◼
►
siracusa dan morally in Sims Tony
[TS]
◼
►
similar Scott McNulty etc all those guys
[TS]
◼
►
they're not here to defend themselves
[TS]
◼
►
Steve what are your favorite things
[TS]
◼
►
nothing ok moving on let's move on now I
[TS]
◼
►
actually did write some things down
[TS]
◼
►
I so although it's not as extensive list
[TS]
◼
►
this year for some reason I'm not sure
[TS]
◼
►
why but I did like some things this year
[TS]
◼
►
top thing on my list is the now hear
[TS]
◼
►
this podcast festival well I look
[TS]
◼
►
forward to for weeks and weeks and it
[TS]
◼
►
did not disappoint the festival was the
[TS]
◼
►
festival but given the opportunity to
[TS]
◼
►
hang out with all of you find people and
[TS]
◼
►
to finally meet colleen and Brian and to
[TS]
◼
►
meet again Dan and Erica and Steven and
[TS]
◼
►
the 50 other people that showed up from
[TS]
◼
►
the example was that was great fun and I
[TS]
◼
►
really enjoyed myself and the
[TS]
◼
►
opportunity to meet the magic tavern
[TS]
◼
►
people and a couple of the other folks
[TS]
◼
►
Aaron Mackie from lure was really
[TS]
◼
►
enjoyable and gave me a new appreciation
[TS]
◼
►
for the podcast community which I didn't
[TS]
◼
►
realize I was part of internal yeah i'm
[TS]
◼
►
going to hear this and now it turns out
[TS]
◼
►
i am so there you go
[TS]
◼
►
things that were not podcast festivals
[TS]
◼
►
many books this year I don't think
[TS]
◼
►
unless it was going through my old
[TS]
◼
►
Calvin and Hobbes collections just to
[TS]
◼
►
soothe myself but movies wise best movie
[TS]
◼
►
I saw this year was actually a movie
[TS]
◼
►
from 2014 which buy new things standards
[TS]
◼
►
is actually basically brand-new I best
[TS]
◼
►
movie I saw here was the babadook which
[TS]
◼
►
is a Australian I almost hesitate to
[TS]
◼
►
call it a horror movie because it's
[TS]
◼
►
really more of a psychological thriller
[TS]
◼
►
although it is kind of a monster movie
[TS]
◼
►
in a way but it is a wonderful film that
[TS]
◼
►
i recommend to even non-horror people
[TS]
◼
►
basically it's about a single mom who's
[TS]
◼
►
husband actually died on the way to
[TS]
◼
►
deliver their young son who is now I
[TS]
◼
►
think seven or eight years old and he is
[TS]
◼
►
kind of a handful he's probably
[TS]
◼
►
somewhere on the spectrum and he keeps
[TS]
◼
►
her awake night after night and he gets
[TS]
◼
►
in a lot of trouble at school and she's
[TS]
◼
►
basically kind of at her wits end and
[TS]
◼
►
about to lose it anyway and then they
[TS]
◼
►
run across a book one night I that just
[TS]
◼
►
appeared from nowhere called the
[TS]
◼
►
babadook which introduces this monster
[TS]
◼
►
called the babadook who when you let him
[TS]
◼
►
into your life he you'll wish you were
[TS]
◼
►
dead and you can never get rid of him
[TS]
◼
►
and her son freaks out and obsesses over
[TS]
◼
►
it and soon enough sure enough the
[TS]
◼
►
babadook turns up at the house it's I
[TS]
◼
►
don't want to go into too much detail on
[TS]
◼
►
it because it's a really complex and
[TS]
◼
►
very a kind of subtle plot that's not
[TS]
◼
►
entirely about the monster although yet
[TS]
◼
►
you can kind of today determine for
[TS]
◼
►
yourself how much the babadook is a real
[TS]
◼
►
monster and how much it's something that
[TS]
◼
►
is is more of a metaphor but it's really
[TS]
◼
►
I consider probably one of the best
[TS]
◼
►
horror movies I've seen in the last 10
[TS]
◼
►
years and maybe one of the best movies
[TS]
◼
►
i've seen in that long just a solid film
[TS]
◼
►
beautifully acted wonderfully directed
[TS]
◼
►
very inventively filmed and I recommend
[TS]
◼
►
it it's good stuff here like the sixth
[TS]
◼
►
person to tell me how good that will be
[TS]
◼
►
as I really need to see it I kind of
[TS]
◼
►
randomly picked up after hearing a
[TS]
◼
►
couple of people recommended i don't
[TS]
◼
►
know it wasn't overly hyped to me so
[TS]
◼
►
hopefully that won't impact you do much
[TS]
◼
►
but I just sort of randomly turned it on
[TS]
◼
►
because it i noticed it on netflix and
[TS]
◼
►
it's still there by the way if you want
[TS]
◼
►
to stream it and I was shocked at how
[TS]
◼
►
good it was the people that had told me
[TS]
◼
►
about it really undersold it so it's
[TS]
◼
►
there's there's very little gore in it
[TS]
◼
►
so if that's not your thing you know
[TS]
◼
►
although i know there are people out
[TS]
◼
►
there for whom seeing animals put in
[TS]
◼
►
peril is worse than seeing people
[TS]
◼
►
eviscerated and if you're one of those
[TS]
◼
►
there's a scene in this that will be
[TS]
◼
►
very difficult for you so you should be
[TS]
◼
►
prepared for that but it's not graphic
[TS]
◼
►
so at least there's that
[TS]
◼
►
anyway wonderful movie i will say that
[TS]
◼
►
the babadook looks incredibly cool like
[TS]
◼
►
the creature itself
[TS]
◼
►
man i love that creature design it is a
[TS]
◼
►
good design i also really enjoyed
[TS]
◼
►
Zootopia like Monty I think that said I
[TS]
◼
►
always root for disney animation because
[TS]
◼
►
they've been having their lunch eaten by
[TS]
◼
►
pixar for the last 10 years or so and
[TS]
◼
►
every time a Disney film comes out I'm
[TS]
◼
►
always like come on maybe this will be
[TS]
◼
►
the one that's as good as Pixar and then
[TS]
◼
►
oh no not quite sorry but you get closer
[TS]
◼
►
and I think Zootopia finally did it
[TS]
◼
►
they finally made a computer animated
[TS]
◼
►
movie that I put on a level with Pixar
[TS]
◼
►
it's I i really enjoyed the story I
[TS]
◼
►
liked all the various threads that were
[TS]
◼
►
going on throughout the plot
[TS]
◼
►
I think it's a very effective commentary
[TS]
◼
►
on racism and bullying and a variety of
[TS]
◼
►
other things and it does that without
[TS]
◼
►
being remotely on the nose which i think
[TS]
◼
►
is a far more effective way to pass that
[TS]
◼
►
message on to kids and hit him over the
[TS]
◼
►
head and I really really enjoyed it I'd
[TS]
◼
►
like to go back and watch it again soon
[TS]
◼
►
it's got some transcendently stupid
[TS]
◼
►
that's true too yeah it's funny as well
[TS]
◼
►
and it does both without breaking a
[TS]
◼
►
let's see i play some games last year i
[TS]
◼
►
think i was happy because i just
[TS]
◼
►
finished fallout one this year finished
[TS]
◼
►
fallout 2 so there's that
[TS]
◼
►
well as good as fallout 1 it was too
[TS]
◼
►
long and it was buggier and I have
[TS]
◼
►
filled real difficulty with RPGs that
[TS]
◼
►
your buggy because I never know if that
[TS]
◼
►
guy died because I screwed up or because
[TS]
◼
►
this the person who wrote the script to
[TS]
◼
►
govern that character screwed up and so
[TS]
◼
►
it was overall entertaining but it was
[TS]
◼
►
too long and now I moved on to fallout 3
[TS]
◼
►
and I'm about 50 hours into that and
[TS]
◼
►
I've barely scratched the surface and
[TS]
◼
►
I'm loving every minute of it
[TS]
◼
►
it is a basically as expected is
[TS]
◼
►
basically elder scrolls in a
[TS]
◼
►
post-apocalyptic universe with guns and
[TS]
◼
►
mutants instead of swords and trolls and
[TS]
◼
►
it is absolutely wonderful idea i love a
[TS]
◼
►
game where I can just kind of randomly
[TS]
◼
►
explore things and I feel like it i can
[TS]
◼
►
drop into the subway tunnel that's
[TS]
◼
►
totally not part of the main plot but
[TS]
◼
►
there's a whole like a you know a group
[TS]
◼
►
of people who think they're vampires
[TS]
◼
►
living down there that you just sort of
[TS]
◼
►
run across and you spend several hours
[TS]
◼
►
just kind of talking to all of them and
[TS]
◼
►
doing side quests for them and then you
[TS]
◼
►
move on to something else and I don't
[TS]
◼
►
find that very very compelling although
[TS]
◼
►
it is in a min credible bear to get
[TS]
◼
►
running on Windows 10 but i won't go
[TS]
◼
►
into detail on that but that really
[TS]
◼
►
needs to get their stuff together and
[TS]
◼
►
come up with a patch to make it easier
[TS]
◼
►
because it was a huge pain and actually
[TS]
◼
►
i think i spent more time games wise on
[TS]
◼
►
launch box this year than anything else
[TS]
◼
►
which is basically a front-end for for
[TS]
◼
►
all the emulators that you have laying
[TS]
◼
►
I've been into emulators for a long time
[TS]
◼
►
playing on my old Atari and sega games
[TS]
◼
►
and whatnot but something about I
[TS]
◼
►
importing them all into into this
[TS]
◼
►
front-end and downloading all of the box
[TS]
◼
►
art and having all the boxes lined up
[TS]
◼
►
the old seventies boxart that were you'd
[TS]
◼
►
like the Atari box art from the
[TS]
◼
►
seventies where I clearly somebody who
[TS]
◼
►
smoked a whole lot of pot before they
[TS]
◼
►
decided they were going to come up with
[TS]
◼
►
the art for air-sea battle or basic math
[TS]
◼
►
or whatever and something about just
[TS]
◼
►
seeing all those boxes with their
[TS]
◼
►
they're crazy seventies are all lined up
[TS]
◼
►
side-by-side if you really wake ins the
[TS]
◼
►
the kid in me who every time his mom
[TS]
◼
►
dragged him to the mall i used to go
[TS]
◼
►
running to that weird corner of sears
[TS]
◼
►
where they inexplicably stocked atari
[TS]
◼
►
games right next to the hardware just so
[TS]
◼
►
I could stare longingly at the shelves
[TS]
◼
►
and and dream of playing all those games
[TS]
◼
►
and so I really enjoyed that I played a
[TS]
◼
►
lot of old games and they kind of
[TS]
◼
►
started an unofficial quest now to play
[TS]
◼
►
every single console game made before
[TS]
◼
►
say like 1995 for the PlayStation era
[TS]
◼
►
i'm gone very far yet i'm in 1982 so
[TS]
◼
►
that's so that was it
[TS]
◼
►
alright get some stuff had some laughs
[TS]
◼
►
shed some tears came out to the coast
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

►

►

that you she does a very nice trick
[TS]
◼
►
where there's things that you read his
[TS]
◼
►
world building that are just kind of
[TS]
◼
►
tossed off world-building details that

turn out later not to be and i really
[TS]
◼
►
love it when a writer can do that where
[TS]
◼
►
you absorb this thing that they're
[TS]
◼
►
but you sort of take it as color and
[TS]
◼
►
then like 300 pages later you're like oh
[TS]
◼
►
that's important right
[TS]
◼
►
I that's a great trick when you can do
[TS]
◼
►
that and she did that mean in that
[TS]
◼
►
setting up that world because you know
[TS]
◼
►
it's just totally kind of foreign world
[TS]
◼
►
and you make some assumptions and then
[TS]
◼
►
she gets to say sometimes know that was
[TS]
◼
►
the wrong assumption that you made
[TS]
◼
►
they're so pretty good stuff and I'm
[TS]
◼
►
looking for the third book and the other
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼

[TS]
◼
►
i was reading about it today and in
[TS]
◼
►
trying to describe what it's about i
[TS]
◼
►
realized there's a way you can describe
[TS]
◼
►
it that makes it sound like the most
[TS]
◼
►
boring road with fantasy book never it's
[TS]
◼
►
like there's a girl in a village and it
[TS]
◼
►
turns out she has a special magical
[TS]
◼
►
talent and there's a wizard and the
[TS]
◼
►
wizard takes her from the village and
[TS]
◼
►
there's a there's a creature and its
[TS]
◼
►
trying to destroy the world with its
[TS]
◼
►
darkness and there's a prince and
[TS]
◼
►
there's yeah it's not like that it's a
[TS]
◼
►
bit but it's really good and I liked it
[TS]
◼
►
a lot and the villains in that our
[TS]
◼
►
bureaucracy politics and a monstrous
[TS]
◼
►
tree that is trying to eat the world you
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
spider-man this year as somebody who
[TS]
◼
►
loves spider-man has for a very long
[TS]
◼
►
time I feel like they really lost their
[TS]
◼
►
way with that character and they did
[TS]
◼
►
lots of things for several years that
[TS]
◼
►
kind of made me not want to read
[TS]
◼
►
spider-man comics and their latest
[TS]
◼
►
iteration where is Peter Parker like is
[TS]
◼
►
successful and he's got a big
[TS]
◼
►
international conglomerate and
[TS]
◼
►
scientists who work for him and
[TS]
◼
►
spider-man is known to the world as
[TS]
◼
►
Peter Parker's bodyguard and employee
[TS]
◼
►
which is a and he actually hires another
[TS]
◼
►
guy to be spider-man when he can't be so
[TS]
◼
►
that he can be seen in the same place
[TS]
◼
►
it's fun because he has gadgets and he
[TS]
◼
►
has adventures and he's in china half
[TS]
◼
►
the time and then he's back in the US
[TS]
◼
►
and it's a lot of fun and light and
[TS]
◼
►
interesting in a way that spider-man
[TS]
◼
►
really hadn't been for i'd say like five
[TS]
◼
►
years so I I've enjoyed this arc where
[TS]
◼

Peter Parker is a you know a millionaire
[TS]
◼
►
industrialist it's it's nice for Peter
[TS]
◼
►
Parker to win some of the time it will

[TS]
◼

►
every little detail of some sort of fan
[TS]
◼
►
property yeah kind of a waste of time
[TS]
◼
►
rocky there you go question the whole
[TS]
◼
►
premise of this podcast Steve what's
[TS]
◼
►
going on i was in the context of saying
[TS]
◼
►
controversial things that we were and
[TS]
◼
►
were forced to do that by a listener I
[TS]
◼
►
didn't want to say that under normal
[TS]
◼
►
conditions i would probably say that
[TS]
◼
►
here's here's one from mr. dan who I
[TS]
◼
►
should say is actually now panelist Dan
[TS]
◼
►
because he was damn from Mara Twilight
[TS]
◼
►
Zone episode panelist analyst can
[TS]
◼
►
exactly right is breaking for my pattern
[TS]
◼
►
i don't have an audio submission this
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼

through these great films this was no
[TS]
◼

including this clip in which John notes
[TS]
◼

that a key point of the film is that
[TS]
◼
►
heroism is not manliness
[TS]
◼
►
yes that's a favorite moment it's not a
[TS]
◼
►
joke this movie emphasizes many many
[TS]
◼
►
many times that heroism does not equal
[TS]
◼
►
quote-unquote manliness right she
[TS]
◼
►
doesn't kill the all that the job to be
[TS]
◼
►
nice to save the person she resolves the
[TS]
◼
►
conflict by calming leone down they
[TS]
◼
►
don't hit you over the head with it but
[TS]
◼
►
almost every conflict but it with her
[TS]
◼

interaction in that conflict is to try
[TS]
◼
►
to do something good which is the good
[TS]
◼
►
guy i try to save people say people who
[TS]
◼
►
might even be your enemy or whatever and
[TS]
◼
►
to resolve conflicts she's always trying
[TS]
◼
►
to de-escalate she was put in normal
[TS]
◼
►
situations that she has to be the hero
[TS]
◼
►
but she doesn't do the stereotypical
[TS]
◼
►
physical dominance manly macho solution
[TS]
◼
►
to these problems she is not a killing
[TS]
◼
►
machine she's not even the world's best

incomparable has delivered as always
[TS]
◼
►
delivered what had some fantastic
[TS]
◼
►
episodes this year some of the stuff
[TS]
◼
►
that springs to mind would be the david
[TS]
◼
►
bailey episode the nebula nominees
[TS]
◼
►
episode which sorted me out for my
[TS]
◼
►
vacations reading thank you so much for

◼
►
that the BR episode was a lot of fun
[TS]
◼
►
the monster supervillain draft also
[TS]
◼
►
fantastic fun ongoing stuff as well like
[TS]
◼
►
the game show episodes which are always
[TS]
◼
►
just fantastic and total party kill
[TS]
◼
►
phenomenal but this year if i was going
[TS]
◼
►
to nail it down i would have to say that
[TS]
◼
►
two episodes of rocket surgery in
[TS]
◼
►
particular have cost me to go online Lou
[TS]
◼
►
keep the original material that you are
[TS]
◼
►
discussed i watch it and then waste more
[TS]
◼
►
time real listening for class
[TS]
◼
►
multivac mistakes were made the first of
[TS]
◼
►
these would be episode 322 Frankenstein
[TS]
◼
►
island in which you discuss the power
[TS]
◼
►
the power the power of power and ours me
[TS]
◼
►
right out of that summer I spent in
[TS]
◼
►
southern california by our network it
[TS]
◼
►
where do the ultimate cake can only
[TS]
◼
►
really be one thing the kool Kat episode
[TS]
◼
►
ah there he is there it is not picking a
[TS]
◼
►
moment from the kool Kat episode is
[TS]
◼
►
almost impossible as the entire thing is
[TS]
◼
►
solid gold but as a sort of
[TS]
◼
►
Representative clip
[TS]
◼
►
here's my pick Philip Michaels
[TS]
◼
►
sabotaging a rare incidents of Steve
[TS]
◼
►
lots trying to be diplomatic and kind
[TS]
◼
►
about particular I have no recollection
[TS]
◼
►
of this i don't want to pick on which
[TS]
◼
►
the boy he's just a kid he's a bully
[TS]
◼
►
it's not his fault he got cast in this
[TS]
◼
►
movie it's the fault of the
[TS]
◼
►
quote-unquote casting director with the
[TS]
◼
►
comma csa after his name which
[TS]
◼
►
theoretically makes him a member of some
[TS]
◼
►
sort of professional casting society now
[TS]
◼
►
but which the bully strikes me as the
[TS]
◼
►
kind of kid who would be so quickly
[TS]
◼
►
bullied by every other child on the
[TS]
◼
►
street including the weird mascot man
[TS]
◼
►
i'm gonna i'm gonna fight you on this
[TS]
◼
►
because i think it's the bully maybe the
[TS]
◼
►
best character in this movie is
[TS]
◼
►
wonderful don't get me wrong as i was
[TS]
◼
►
asleep he has turned him he has turned
[TS]
◼
►
to bully because when you're a doughy
[TS]
◼
►
good hunting am i right
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
going to try to avoid saying but it's
[TS]
◼
►

◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

[TS]

►

◼
►
rocket science is such members got
[TS]
◼

frightening it and the and then kool Kat
[TS]
◼
►
kool Kat would be my favorite episode
[TS]
◼
►
that I was not on this year
[TS]
◼
►
why do I was going to be on it and i
[TS]
◼
►
watch the damn thing three times so
[TS]
◼
►
nobody to blame but yourself for that
[TS]
◼
►
you ended up ahead
[TS]
◼
►
yeah really i love finally getting to
[TS]
◼
►
talk Astro City because i think i think
[TS]
◼
►
that was one of the very first things
[TS]
◼
►
they suggested yeah
[TS]
◼
►
way way back it was on my list somewhere
[TS]
◼
►
in four years takes three or four years
[TS]
◼
►
you know and also finally talking about
[TS]
◼
►
is that I love those two I enjoyed the
[TS]
◼
►
star wars travesties draft and maybe my
[TS]
◼
►
favorite episode of the year was the
[TS]
◼
►
Anaheim doing the the live episode now
[TS]
◼
►
hear this and partly to have an audience
[TS]
◼
►
and partly to have a ridiculously
[TS]
◼
►
wonderful topic and partly just to hang
[TS]
◼
►
out with you guys for three days that
[TS]
◼
►
was utterly delightful between that and
[TS]
◼
►
and hanging out in Anaheim it's been a
[TS]
◼
►
Erica what about you you have some
[TS]
◼
►
favorite incomparable things i do so so
[TS]
◼
►
the first part of my list is is from
[TS]
◼
►
those those glorious few weeks where I
[TS]
◼
►
was actually good job and yeah and I I
[TS]
◼
►
don't have clips but I think I have time
[TS]
◼
►
codes for at least most of them to high
[TS]
◼
►
200 huh yep so I don't even have episode
[TS]
◼
►
numbers for some of these moved here but
[TS]
◼
►
the the first one is the clip show
[TS]
◼
►
I'm oh good that's where it's always
[TS]
◼
►
good yeah reference like you do
[TS]
◼
►
what's what's about to happen here
[TS]
◼
►
there's there was one where there is a
[TS]
◼
►
funny exchange between Steve and Glenn
[TS]
◼
►
which that's not possible which I
[TS]
◼
►
thought was sort of the perfect
[TS]
◼
►
encapsulation of Glenn's participation
[TS]
◼
►
to participation on the podcast let's
[TS]
◼
►
see just a few more episodes to film on
[TS]
◼
►
somerset you're one to talk led I don't
[TS]
◼
►
want a dog and then there was also a
[TS]
◼
►
moment to where I actually admitted that
[TS]
◼
►
I quite like wat Oh from episode one of
[TS]
◼
►
the Phantom Menace but then then I also
[TS]
◼
►
said I know he's awful but I love him
[TS]
◼
►
anyway I love a lot of awful people from
[TS]
◼
►
haha the title this episode you know you
[TS]
◼
►
done i was gonna say I'm here aren't I
[TS]
◼
►
but I think that's just too small
[TS]
◼
►
no I i I'll allow it hey who you calling
[TS]
◼
►
awful i also liked an episode 2 92 which
[TS]
◼
►
was called I have an appointment with a
[TS]
◼
►
fully ambassador which was about bad new
[TS]
◼
►
star trek we're near the beginning of
[TS]
◼
►
the project podcast brianna is on inch
[TS]
◼
►
she just comes clean right off the bat
[TS]
◼
►
eh i feel like i have a history of
[TS]
◼
►
having positive things to say but
[TS]
◼
►
mountings that many geeks don't like I
[TS]
◼
►
am blank this week I got nothing for
[TS]
◼
►
that will help me and bri doesn't have
[TS]
◼
►
anything there is a very bad it's over
[TS]
◼
►
that was just like I am ready to dig
[TS]
◼
►
into this episode now that was a great
[TS]
◼
►
yeah that was good i was i I was pretty
[TS]
◼
►
cool with those selections I gotta say
[TS]
◼
►
we all had to watch nemesis that still
[TS]
◼
►
is tough it was tough
[TS]
◼
►
good let's see and then later in that
[TS]
◼
►
episode there was a moment where Jason
[TS]
◼
►
was describing how Picard talking to his
[TS]
◼
►
clone should be good and dan just starts
[TS]
◼
►
shouting and the idea that you have
[TS]
◼
►
scenes work regarding his clone are
[TS]
◼
►
doing like hello I'm just like you it
[TS]
◼
►
sounds like those students would be good
[TS]
◼
►
right so boring it's so boring why is
[TS]
◼
►
this boring i can't figure it out it
[TS]
◼
►
should be good but it's boring you know
[TS]
◼
►
you don't get yelling damn quite as
[TS]
◼
►
often as I would like to feel like we
[TS]
◼
►
are bad things episodes because I I
[TS]
◼
►
appreciate yelling dan yelling dan is
[TS]
◼
►
utterly like from as it is my want i
[TS]
◼
►
scanned through the episode titles and
[TS]
◼
►
made a quick list of some of the other
[TS]
◼
►
ones that I quite enjoyed and the first
[TS]
◼
►
one was actually one of the ones that
[TS]
◼
►
Antony johnston was the host for and
[TS]
◼
►
that was the David Bowie episode which
[TS]
◼
►
was very early in 2016 like one of the
[TS]
◼
►
first first signs that it was going to
[TS]
◼
►
go downhill and fast that was a podcast
[TS]
◼
►
that kind of meant a lot to me and I got
[TS]
◼
►
a little emotional and I don't usually
[TS]
◼
►
cry and podcast but that was I think one
[TS]
◼
►
of the exceptions so it was it was good
[TS]
◼
►
and in a different way from a lot of
[TS]
◼
►
these podcast but another one that was I
[TS]
◼
►
didn't get we people was kind of
[TS]
◼
►
important along the same lines was a
[TS]
◼
►
episodes 288 and 289 I wish I was back
[TS]
◼
►
norway and it's not Hamilton and those
[TS]
◼
►
were the album draft which while they
[TS]
◼
►
were super fun to participate in the
[TS]
◼
►
preparation for those was one of the
[TS]
◼
►
hardest things I've ever had to do for a
[TS]
◼
►
podcast i had to go through the list of
[TS]
◼
►
elves like picking favorite children it
[TS]
◼
►
was really it was tough
[TS]
◼
►
yeah i think we liken it to sophie's
[TS]
◼
►
choice in the reference also really was
[TS]
◼
►
but i noticed i have learned that Jason
[TS]
◼
►
and I have very similar case so it's
[TS]
◼
►
nice to have somebody that I can I can
[TS]
◼
►
be you know mostly trust their musical
[TS]
◼
►
tastes so when I need a recommendation
[TS]
◼
►
for something I know to go to and that
[TS]
◼
►
guy is Jason k number 297 i'm going to
[TS]
◼
►
agree with one of our listeners the only
[TS]
◼
►
whisper which was finally a miyazaki
[TS]
◼
►
movie that i have seen and it's it's one
[TS]
◼
►
that i love so I got 22 beyond that that
[TS]
◼
►
was great i liked episode three hundred
[TS]
◼
►
because we took listener questions and I
[TS]
◼
►
thought that was really fun just to hear
[TS]
◼
►
what they wanted to know which was
[TS]
◼
►
sometimes interesting and sometimes
[TS]
◼
►
baffling so it was that one time we love
[TS]
◼
►
our listeners we love them like those
[TS]
◼
►
egos we love our listeners la alright
[TS]
◼
►
episode 301 we've mentioned a couple
[TS]
◼
►
times that was the the one about the
[TS]
◼
►
nebula books and i'm going to echo what
[TS]
◼
►
Jason said the two favorite books
[TS]
◼
►
Jason's were also my favorite books 309
[TS]
◼
►
boats in space you gotta have a draft
[TS]
◼
►
oh yeah sure you can get through year
[TS]
◼
►
without picking a draft is a favorite
[TS]
◼
►
and I think spaceships is one of the
[TS]
◼
►
nerdier things possible to draft a
[TS]
◼
►
podcast so it was right up my alley
[TS]
◼
►
that was a lot of fun one that I
[TS]
◼
►
listened to but was not on was episode 3
[TS]
◼
►
13 the ziggurats of Yavin 4 which was
[TS]
◼
►
another one of those handy Johnston ones
[TS]
◼
►
was a and I quite liked how you guys
[TS]
◼
►
framed it as sort of the rebel podcast
[TS]
◼
►
breaking in to the main feed that was
[TS]
◼
►
was clever and took a little bit of
[TS]
◼
►
editing and as an editor myself i always
[TS]
◼
►
appreciate when that is done well and
[TS]
◼
►
that was done well nice work this is the
[TS]
◼
►
best Erica selections of the best
[TS]
◼
►
everybody she's so every barn raising me
[TS]
◼
►
haha and then i'm also gonna say upset
[TS]
◼
►
325 the monster mash which was our live
[TS]
◼
►
episode that now hear this
[TS]
◼
►
which is just all kinds of fun and the
[TS]
◼
►
of the fact that we had so many people
[TS]
◼
►
that we had have some of the panelists
[TS]
◼
►
at the kids table which was lower than
[TS]
◼
►
all of the rest of it and and I just
[TS]
◼
►
have to to give a quick shout-out to
[TS]
◼
►
like even when the incomparable is
[TS]
◼
►
difficult shall we say it's still fun
[TS]
◼
►
because there were some episodes that
[TS]
◼
►
sort of left me shaking my head but but
[TS]
◼
►
um episode 291 I like complicated books
[TS]
◼
►
Glenn where we read Aurora and Luna boy
[TS]
◼
►
I did not like those books at all but it
[TS]
◼
►
was it was still kind of fun to talk
[TS]
◼
►
about them and you know I don't know
[TS]
◼
►
that i'm glad that i read the books but
[TS]
◼
►
I'm glad that I got to talk about them
[TS]
◼
►
same thing with episode 316 just add
[TS]
◼
►
Jesuits that was what we talked about
[TS]
◼
►
the sparrow which I also really did not
[TS]
◼
►
like it turns out turns out Scott and I
[TS]
◼
►
do not have similar tetona works
[TS]
◼
►
that's what I learned in 2016 that's
[TS]
◼
►
unfortunate because Scott is the one who
[TS]
◼
►
recommends all our books
[TS]
◼
►
yeah yeah yeah I've yeah i might just
[TS]
◼
►
need not become the Book Club podcast
[TS]
◼
►
quite so often somebody needs to be
[TS]
◼
►
there to tell scott what's what
[TS]
◼
►
that's true that's true that's true and
[TS]
◼
►
so as I already mentioned episode 2 92
[TS]
◼
►
about bad Star Trek you know i'm not
[TS]
◼
►
usually on Star Trek episodes but I
[TS]
◼
►
decided sure i'll be on this one and the
[TS]
◼
►
one time I decide to join in we watch
[TS]
◼
►
insurrection and nemesis great just
[TS]
◼
►
great you're welcome
[TS]
◼
►
yeah thanks thanks Jackson well um and
[TS]
◼
►
then this couple of other sort of little
[TS]
◼
►
shadow it's all of total party kill has
[TS]
◼
►
just been so fun this year both being on
[TS]
◼
►
it and editing it which means that I I
[TS]
◼
►
learned everything so I've become sort
[TS]
◼
►
of the walking encyclopedia for where
[TS]
◼
►
we've been and what we've done and
[TS]
◼
►
that's kind of funny to that makes me
[TS]
◼
►
laugh especially when you're playing the
[TS]
◼
►
dumb character i know it's like I really
[TS]
◼
►
should have thought that through ahead
[TS]
◼
►
time except they didn't know I was going
[TS]
◼
►
to be editing the podcast when it
[TS]
◼
►
created that character i should have
[TS]
◼
►
created somebody very very smart
[TS]
◼
►
maybe in the future dumb rogue / a
[TS]
◼
►
repository of all knowledge involving
[TS]
◼
►
the party for the last Kiev maybe maybe
[TS]
◼
►
flesh a got bonked on the head at one
[TS]
◼
►
point she's just a savant of of some
[TS]
◼
►
sort of systemic sense stereotypical we
[TS]
◼
►
don't want you can have a good memory
[TS]
◼
►
but still be done
[TS]
◼
►
yeah that's true um and game show as
[TS]
◼
►
other people have mentioned game show is
[TS]
◼
►
always great and that is one where as
[TS]
◼
►
fun as it is to be on a game show
[TS]
◼
►
episodes I i also like not being on them
[TS]
◼
►
because it's so delightful to have a new
[TS]
◼
►
game show episode to listen to that I
[TS]
◼
►
haven't heard yet dropping mike you
[TS]
◼
►
always those are great i also enjoyed my
[TS]

[TS]
◼

foot with Glenn this year we watched the
[TS]
◼
►
first season of veronica mars and talked
[TS]
◼
►
about that that was wonderful i I've
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
had forgotten just how great that first
[TS]
◼
►
season is until i went back and watched
[TS]
◼
►
again so it was good to have the the
[TS]
◼
►
opportunity to do that and i did already
[TS]
◼
►
also also kind of mentioned lady doctor
[TS]
◼
►
who but doing lady doctor who on the
[TS]
◼
►
incomparable podcast network has been
[TS]
◼

really fun Stephen was actually telling
[TS]
◼

me that somebody discovered Radio Free
[TS]
◼
►
Skaro his doctor who podcast through
[TS]
◼
►
lazy Doctor Who much in the world 25

◼
►
casting that's kind of bunkers know that
[TS]
◼
►
it'sit's me when that stuff happens
[TS]
◼
►
probably the last and very best thing
[TS]
◼
►
about the incomparable that that I
[TS]
◼
►
cottoned on to this year was actually
[TS]
◼
►
only in Sims because I know it wasn't
[TS]
◼
►
officially her her first appearances on
[TS]
◼
►
the incomparable flagship show came
[TS]
◼
►
toward the end of 2015 but this was the
[TS]
◼
►
first year that Helene was you know
[TS]
◼
►
fairly regularly on the panel and I just
[TS]
◼
►
remember listening to the first few
[TS]
◼
►
episodes with her and being like oh
[TS]
◼
►
we've got a new person who's the Saline
[TS]
◼
►
person and I was not on the episodes
[TS]
◼
►
with her for the first few that she was
[TS]
◼
►
on and when I was listening I was like
[TS]
◼
►
quite often when i listen to the
[TS]
◼
►
incomparable and i'm not on i have
[TS]
◼
►
moments where I'm you know talking back
[TS]
◼
►
to my my phone and being like oh my god
[TS]
◼
►
you guys this is wrong
[TS]
◼
►
here's your this is why oh well as
[TS]
◼
►
possible and and and when Alan was on it
[TS]
◼
►
was just like hey i don't i don't need
[TS]
◼
►
to be here somebody is saying those
[TS]
◼
►
things that I would be saying it was it
[TS]
◼
►
was kind of a magical moment so just
[TS]
◼
►
getting to know a lean in
[TS]
◼
►
in addition to meeting her in person
[TS]
◼
►
like I already said getting to know her
[TS]
◼
►
and listen to her on the podcast and
[TS]
◼
►
then sometimes talk with her on the
[TS]
◼
►
podcast has been really great so I am
[TS]
◼
►
very very happy about that and I hope
[TS]
◼
►
she continues to be on lots of episodes
[TS]
◼
►
in the future but maybe not more than me
[TS]
◼
►
ok fine more than me you bonded over
[TS]
◼
►
those two books that you didn't like so
[TS]
◼
►
that was that was your first episode
[TS]
◼
►
nice that's right but yeah so that's
[TS]
◼
►
that's it that's my list
[TS]
◼
►
okay that brings us to Monte well I was
[TS]
◼
►
very fond of episode 2 86 in which we
[TS]
◼
►
talked about Hamilton and american
[TS]
◼
►
musical yeah to learn much much more
[TS]
◼
►
about it i recommend the podcast pod for
[TS]
◼
►
ham which had its entire run
[TS]
◼
►
encapsulated inside 2016 as right where
[TS]
◼
►
we went through all 46 tracks of the
[TS]
◼
►
original cast album because we're crazy
[TS]
◼
►
yeah i was on a bunch of those i think i
[TS]
◼
►
hosted eight and was a guest on seven
[TS]
◼
►
yeah heavy lifting you and David both
[TS]
◼
►
did a lot of heavy lifting on that one
[TS]
◼
►
my favorite moment of podcasting was the
[TS]
◼
►
three podcast we recorded that now hear
[TS]
◼
►
this a podcast festival i was delighted
[TS]
◼
►
to be at because I got to see all my
[TS]
◼
►
I feel like we've talked about the
[TS]
◼
►
Monster Mash the Monster village draft a
[TS]
◼
►
lot we haven't talked about the game
[TS]
◼
►
show episodes that much especially
[TS]
◼
►
gameshow 49 where I got to play a game
[TS]
◼
►
of feuding families instead of hosts it
[TS]
◼
►
and that was super finally and even
[TS]
◼
►
though i don't think we want that one
[TS]
◼
►
know you should really didn't know what
[TS]
◼
►
my team did with the inconceivable we
[TS]
◼
►
played so I was fun and it was like
[TS]
◼
►
everyone else said really fun to either
[TS]
◼
►
catch up with people or meet people for
[TS]
◼
►
the first time face-to-face
[TS]
◼
►
I don't think I've seen you in person
[TS]
◼
►
for what like 20 years
[TS]
◼
►
yeah I Slyke night was crazy 93
[TS]
◼
►
something like that something like that
[TS]
◼
►
yeah that was the first time that I had
[TS]
◼
►
met you I feel like you know I got
[TS]
◼
►
anymore and that was another one
[TS]
◼
►
the pokédex is getting larger and
[TS]
◼
►
larger 50 years good to know as people
[TS]
◼
►
keep getting promoted to panelist I i
[TS]
◼
►
was also on foot i was on the Sherlock
[TS]
◼
►
Holmes episodes and I want to
[TS]
◼
►
specifically call out the bonus track
[TS]
◼
►
from a foot number five let's bonus
[TS]
◼
►
track a five or I make what I swear is a
[TS]
◼
►
terrific argument against Batman being
[TS]
◼
►
the world's greatest detective no one
[TS]
◼
►
can hear more than half of it because my
[TS]
◼
►
connection kept cutting it out but the
[TS]
◼
►
parts where you can hear me I'm missing
[TS]
◼
►
an amazingly good case but that'd be hot
[TS]
◼
►
I at the height of that man is not the
[TS]
◼
►
world grid to call him the world's
[TS]
◼
►
greatest detective
[TS]
◼
►
oh my god that sounds like a lovely rant
[TS]
◼
►
that we can't hear weekly really
[TS]
◼
►
guarding the both data as its be taken
[TS]
◼
►
to a computer not even mad anymore
[TS]
◼
►
ok your day job growth will be silenced
[TS]
◼
►
it was quite something being there and
[TS]
◼
►
also i enjoyed the rocket surgery
[TS]
◼
►
episodes i was on particularly as we
[TS]
◼
►
mentioned kool Kat dare he is very is
[TS]
◼
►
Don vivica a fox and Erik Estrada mess
[TS]
◼
►
it up on a bone it and i really enjoyed
[TS]
◼
►
the chance to dissect the johnny
[TS]
◼
►
mnemonic a movie that should have been
[TS]
◼
►
right up my alley but made mistakes on
[TS]
◼
►
absolutely every level possibly could
[TS]
◼
►
I mean it's so close to being the matrix
[TS]
◼
►
i know on paper it should have been the
[TS]
◼
►
matrix and i enjoyed many other things
[TS]
◼
►
that i do not remember right now so that
[TS]
◼
►
is the end of my time and am at Steve
[TS]
◼
►
so as usual I've got favorite episodes
[TS]
◼
►
and favorite moment girl favorite
[TS]
◼
►
episodes yeah well you know you got it
[TS]
◼
►
we have fun Stan brand we do have fun
[TS]
◼
►
and we dip the gang and me that's right
[TS]
◼
►
so I episode wise i really really
[TS]
◼
►
enjoyed episodes 288 and 289 that would
[TS]
◼
►
be I wish it was back in Norway and it's
[TS]
◼
►
not Hamilton again that was our album
[TS]
◼
►
draft it was tremendously fun to talk
[TS]
◼
►
about music on the podcast which is
[TS]
◼
►
something we have not done often and it
[TS]
◼
►
turns out we have a fair number of music
[TS]
◼
►
geeks on the podcast and I really hope
[TS]
◼
►
we get the opportunity to do a few more
[TS]
◼
►
music-based episodes although i suspect
[TS]
◼
►
based on the minimal amount of feedback
[TS]
◼
►
we got that probably was not well loved
[TS]
◼
►
by our usual crowd but i really enjoyed
[TS]
◼
►
it and I very much enjoyed getting some
[TS]
◼
►
lists of interesting albums to try out
[TS]
◼
►
from other people on the panel most of
[TS]
◼
►
which I did not like but hey it wasn't
[TS]
◼
►
let's see had to pick a rocket surgery
[TS]
◼
►
like everybody else I actually wavered a
[TS]
◼
►
little bit because that we did a lot of
[TS]
◼
►
good work on rocket surgery this year
[TS]
◼
►
project we had we have gog and
[TS]
◼
►
Frankenstein island to choose from and
[TS]
◼
►
those were both pretty sweet i got a
[TS]
◼
►
second but nothing was quite as sweet as
[TS]
◼
►
getting to talk about cool cat saves the
[TS]
◼
►
kids on the Pied yes
[TS]
◼
►
i think it was on a bonus track where I
[TS]
◼
►
just started saying yeah he is
[TS]
◼
►
yep from one of our previous episodes
[TS]
◼
►
and just half-jokingly because I figured
[TS]
◼
►
no one would be dumb enough to actually
[TS]
◼
►
decide to do an episode on cool cat
[TS]
◼
►
saves the kids I turns out we would
[TS]
◼
►
think that we are always dumb enough to
[TS]
◼
►
do you learn to expect on the 360 daily
[TS]
◼
►
answer is always us who is dumb enough
[TS]
◼
►
we are dumb enough i thought i knew
[TS]
◼
►
rock-bottom was and it turns out that
[TS]
◼
►
there was a sub-basement so and that's
[TS]
◼
►
the basement was kool Kat I also really
[TS]
◼
►
liked episode 322 tastes like college
[TS]
◼
►
finally something good comes out of all
[TS]
◼
►
the stupid podcasting it's free beer
[TS]
◼
►
well that's just it we finally rope
[TS]
◼
►
somebody and descending a bunch of free
[TS]
◼
►
it was your idea all along seaview
[TS]
◼
►
you've been did was doing this for quite
[TS]
◼
►
a while and Jesse Friedman bless his
[TS]
◼
►
heart took the bait manship lessons
[TS]
◼
►
everybody beer but like the kool Kat
[TS]
◼
►
thing I didn't think anybody would be
[TS]
◼
►
dumb enough to take this up on that
[TS]
◼
►
again I'm just kidding Jesse Friedman
[TS]
◼
►
you are you are the greater love our
[TS]
◼
►
listeners I didn't love our listeners so
[TS]
◼
►
much i would say you're the best but our
[TS]
◼
►
listeners invest in your a close second
[TS]
◼
►
anyway that was a that was an awfully
[TS]
◼
►
fun episode it was and it was it was
[TS]
◼
►
amusing because we kind of pitched it as
[TS]
◼
►
an educational episode I'm going to find
[TS]
◼
►
anything really was i mean i actually
[TS]
◼
►
learned something ya know it worked i'm
[TS]
◼
►
not even i'm not really a beer drinker
[TS]
◼
►
but I found it fascinating yeah and I
[TS]
◼
►
quite like to jesse's his comment that
[TS]
◼
►
you don't want people tell him they
[TS]
◼
►
they just haven't found the beer you
[TS]
◼
►
know that there are you here yet i'm
[TS]
◼
►
like i don't know if it's worth trying
[TS]
◼
►
more and more beard of to find my beer
[TS]
◼
►
although it is this you know it is
[TS]
◼
►
didn't want you to me it sounds like a
[TS]
◼
►
waste beer but but maybe maybe at the
[TS]
◼
►
next convention got all right we're
[TS]
◼
►
gonna be helping over here next time or
[TS]
◼
►
in varied room here
[TS]
◼
►
fewer hops please yes that was great fun
[TS]
◼
►
and we got a lot of good feedback from
[TS]
◼
►
that one from from a lot of people which
[TS]
◼
►
was somewhat surprising because really
[TS]
◼
►
frankly that episode was all about us
[TS]
◼
►
and getting free beer and drinking
[TS]
◼
►
so I'm glad it turned out to be
[TS]
◼
►
something that other people could enjoy
[TS]
◼
►
as well although frankly I don't care
[TS]
◼
►
let's see what else getting off the main
[TS]
◼
►
show I this is actually a bit of a cheat
[TS]
◼
►
because it was at the very tail end of
[TS]
◼
►
last year came out the day before
[TS]
◼
►
Christmas i believe and that would be
[TS]
◼
►
the incomparable radio theatre 1 point
[TS]
◼
►
11 The Adventures of Jimmy precedent for
[TS]
◼
►
future haha there was way too much of
[TS]
◼
►
that screeching kid but otherwise onto
[TS]
◼
►
favorite modern a remote it's a new
[TS]
◼
►
actually most of my favorite moments
[TS]
◼
►
come from non flagship shows because
[TS]
◼
►
that's where we get up to are really
[TS]
◼
►
stupid stuff that's right we spun off
[TS]
◼
►
all but extra stupid stuff and nonsense
[TS]
◼
►
we love the viruses because the parade's
[TS]
◼
►
you figured out my whole plan Steve you
[TS]
◼
►
figured out it is this game starting off
[TS]
◼
►
with bonus track 300 bonus tracks in a
[TS]
◼
►
weird thing this year they disappeared
[TS]
◼
►
for people who aren't members it's true
[TS]
◼
►
and I think bonus track 301 of the last
[TS]
◼
►
of them but Boyle delightful one to end
[TS]
◼
►
on and my favorite piece out of that is
[TS]
◼
►
where Scott McNulty says something along
[TS]
◼
►
the lines of every young boy at some
[TS]
◼
►
point in his life loses his transformer
[TS]
◼
►
and Jason just listen
[TS]
◼
►
he loses it more spectacularly than he
[TS]
◼
►
did during the human centipede episode
[TS]
◼
►
and that was like a padded that is
[TS]
◼
►
something you padded walls straitjacket
[TS]
◼
►
time everybody remembers the time when
[TS]
◼
►
he lost his transform my am I wrong is
[TS]
◼
►
that the dirtiest thing Scott mobility
[TS]
◼
►
has ever said on
[TS]
◼
►
that's right there is it is me anyway
[TS]
◼
►
why you know the way he said it was was
[TS]
◼
►
perfect like the timing was perfect and
[TS]
◼
►
it's one of those great those great
[TS]
◼
►
innuendos where you're not entirely sure
[TS]
◼
►
what it is he's referring to but you can
[TS]
◼
►
pick up a few things that might fit so
[TS]
◼
►
to speak so he knew what he was doing
[TS]
◼
►
when the podcast falls apart that's what
[TS]
◼
►
I'm I'm the most pleased my let's see a
[TS]
◼
►
LOL episode 3 twenty the power the power
[TS]
◼
►
the power the power to power
[TS]
◼
►
Oh disciples of the gold Oh children
[TS]
◼
►
between lines only reminds me of the
[TS]
◼
►
time back in Philadelphia this one that
[TS]
◼
►
this one comes from the great moments in
[TS]
◼
►
editing series at a time code 51 52 we
[TS]
◼
►
are discussing the spinning ammo box and
[TS]
◼
►
Sheila Frankenstein's lab and how it is
[TS]
◼
►
likely just mounted on a dowel and and I
[TS]
◼
►
say there's a guy down there just
[TS]
◼
►
Dowling the crap out of that thing maybe
[TS]
◼
►
it's a crap i say something a little
[TS]
◼
►
bluer and instead of getting bleep or
[TS]
◼
►
spoiler horn which by the way when we
[TS]
◼
►
get spoiler horn is probably my favorite
[TS]
◼
►
thing of all in the podcast every year
[TS]
◼
►
but instead of getting bleep spoiler
[TS]
◼
►
horn i get ja code theirs in the second
[TS]
◼
►
job laughing really diminishes and Frank
[TS]
◼
►
was bad come on man
[TS]
◼
►
he's down there Dowling Jack that they i
[TS]
◼
►
forgot i did that this practice my
[TS]
◼
►
favorite thing that episode I was in
[TS]
◼
►
tears after that so if there's a guy
[TS]
◼
►
down there just download the high out of
[TS]
◼
►
that area will be will go with me in
[TS]
◼
►
this it's like sometimes you're editing
[TS]
◼
►
and things just happen and you're like I
[TS]
◼
►
don't even know what I mean you hear you
[TS]
◼
►
like I'm just gonna put Jocko there
[TS]
◼
►
that'll show him things just happen no
[TS]
◼
►
is fantastic and it reminds me of a clip
[TS]
◼
►
and i know you have this already cut out
[TS]
◼
►
because I saved the thing of it of
[TS]
◼
►
getting spoiler horned on pod for him
[TS]
◼
►
with my reaction to Bambi's mother
[TS]
◼
►
oh yeah that was rubbish that is utterly
[TS]
◼
►
delightful yeah I said that to you that
[TS]
◼
►
that's game while same here and then and
[TS]
◼
►
but everything else you know old yeller
[TS]
◼
►
you're a monster you were on your I am a
[TS]
◼
►
let's see what else I got here I low
[TS]
◼
►
definitions be gameshow 31 low
[TS]
◼
►
definition tempting my little man which
[TS]
◼
►
I think maybe the best episode we did
[TS]
◼
►
all year it is solid from end and that's
[TS]
◼
►
sad because pretty early on but it was
[TS]
◼
►
good you know at exactly 48 minutes we
[TS]
◼
►
go into words six of that episode which
[TS]
◼
►
is you calgon and there's a link to a
[TS]
◼
►
discussion about the small less tasty
[TS]
◼
►
precursor to the modern chicken taking
[TS]
◼
►
that is my correctly hysterical and it
[TS]
◼
►
makes me almost break into tears you
[TS]
◼
►
haven't heard small less tasty precursor
[TS]
◼
►
of the modern chicken differently with
[TS]
◼
►
your chicken definition to anymore a
[TS]
◼
►
judgment call in there i'm not sure
[TS]
◼
►
that's gonna eventually i used to get
[TS]
◼
►
them all so small because everyone's
[TS]
◼
►
definition definition of synthesized and
[TS]
◼
►
I'm surprised there's no semicolon in
[TS]
◼
►
there with us chickens with outdated
[TS]
◼
►
views identical to modern sugar
[TS]
◼
►
yeah also Glenn wins that episode which
[TS]
◼
►
is not when with em he wasn't the amount
[TS]
◼
►
of pain and a thing this year
[TS]
◼
►
oh yes next low definition of game show
[TS]
◼
►
up to 39 the amount of panel thing i'm
[TS]
◼
►
going to call out to the amount of pan
[TS]
◼
►
and if they write in Hamilton's
[TS]
◼
►
definition Pamela challenge and a sure
[TS]
◼
►
sign that he had given up no manage the
[TS]
◼
►
amount of pan in a thing we thought he
[TS]
◼
►
had died briefly I think it's a perfect
[TS]
◼
►
reflection of how desperate we were at
[TS]
◼
►
that point I onto a total party kill I
[TS]
◼
►
got a few of things to mention here
[TS]
◼
►
anytime that k cast windwall this year
[TS]
◼
►
thus inspiring a variety of Oasis so yes
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
my favorites and when I was visiting my
[TS]
◼
►
sister in Chicago she specifically
[TS]
◼
►
brought that up as well so
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
sewer asking for trouble really create
[TS]
◼
►
generating a fair amount of mirth and
[TS]
◼
►
poop jokes coolest thing about that is
[TS]
◼
►
that like ninety percent of those poop
[TS]
◼
►
jokes don't come from me
[TS]
◼
►
it's everybody else doing the dirty work
[TS]
◼
►
and i'm just sitting back and listening
[TS]
◼
►
enjoyment but i think my favorite moment
[TS]
◼
►
of those two episodes is when Sarah
[TS]
◼
►
barber who normally normally is one of
[TS]
◼
►
the adults in the room usually come in
[TS]
◼
►
unless she's dropping f-bombs and
[TS]
◼
►
f-bombs what she does from time to time
[TS]
◼
►
just out of the blue which i also find
[TS]
◼
►
the light kick everybody else is talking
[TS]
◼
►
about various foul vehicle related puns
[TS]
◼
►
and things and she just says in this
[TS]
◼
►
sort of plaintiff sad voice there's so
[TS]
◼
►
much poop also in total party kill
[TS]
◼
►
episode 96 what's left of Peter
[TS]
◼
►
Dragonforce the one that just dropped
[TS]
◼
►
recently at 6 55 we get my annual
[TS]
◼
►
candidate for underappreciated Joe this
[TS]
◼
►
one's from Monte Ashley we're discussing
[TS]
◼
►
whether accurate is is immune to acid
[TS]
◼
►
because she vomits acid all over the
[TS]
◼
►
place and probably gets it all over
[TS]
◼
►
herself and yet doesn't suffer any
[TS]
◼
►
Tony decides that she's not but Monty
[TS]
◼
►
then drops accurate it's literally
[TS]
◼
►
eighty percent acid in your bounty
[TS]
◼
►
hunters have some science questions so i
[TS]
◼
►
assume that you are still make a note or
[TS]
◼
►
unappreciated joke of the year which i
[TS]
◼
►
thought was brilliant
[TS]
◼
►
now somewhere around there is when we
[TS]
◼
►
did that line about how somebody should
[TS]
◼
►
start lactating work it right that was
[TS]
◼
►
pretty solid too
[TS]
◼
►
yeah that was like that was pretty solid
[TS]
◼
►
because we needed milk which is basic to
[TS]
◼
►
suit the acid that's right good stuff
[TS]
◼
►
anyway that was my underappreciated joke
[TS]
◼
►
of the year good job Monty well done
[TS]
◼
►
I didn't think I got enough laughs at
[TS]
◼
►
the time so I didn't try to uncover it I
[TS]
◼
►
tried to uncover it a little bit in the
[TS]
◼
►
Edit so everybody could appreciate it
[TS]
◼
►
but yes well I appreciate it because i
[TS]
◼
►
had written down in some sort of a
[TS]
◼
►
drunken scroll on my character sheet
[TS]
◼
►
underappreciated joke of the year
[TS]
◼
►
acrid acid eighty percent and I had no
[TS]
◼
►
idea which episode that would turn up in
[TS]
◼
►
and driving home tonight i just happened
[TS]
◼
►
to throw episode 96 on and there was at
[TS]
◼
►
655 and I got very excited it was a it
[TS]
◼
►
was negatively episode but there was an
[TS]
◼
►
episode to anyone i love a lot of awful
[TS]
◼
►
people that's last year's clips
[TS]
◼
►
yea Monty again look at that in
[TS]
◼
►
reference to the previous year's summer
[TS]
◼
►
superhero spectacular uses the phrase
[TS]
◼
►
I'm still a little bitter that I could
[TS]
◼
►
not get the thing all the way to the
[TS]
◼
►
finals but i think i did a good job
[TS]
◼
►
5,000 Steve said oh right now it's
[TS]
◼
►
clobberin oh nevermind just gonna say
[TS]
◼
►
simultaneous it is perfect and left her
[TS]
◼
►
heart about that Lewbert when Oh while
[TS]
◼
►
we're on the subject of last year's clip
[TS]
◼
►
show episode i should mention that in
[TS]
◼
►
the interest of averting disaster i am
[TS]
◼
►
not selecting the somewhat abbreviated
[TS]
◼
►
clip loop that we played in that episode
[TS]
◼
►
clip loop accidentally yeah yeah well
[TS]
◼
►
that wouldn't get it just kind of
[TS]
◼
►
happened at the end there but i am not
[TS]
◼
►
going to pick that you hear me people
[TS]
◼
►
the infinite clip loop is over it is
[TS]
◼
►
finished kaput finito it is long past
[TS]
◼
►
its best by date and for the safety of
[TS]
◼
►
I am taking it out of the back of the
[TS]
◼
►
fridge and putting it out with the
[TS]
◼
►
recycling the clip is done thank
[TS]
◼
►
goodness yeah it's all over
[TS]
◼
►
feel good getting that out of the way I
[TS]
◼
►
and one last clip episode 3 25 the
[TS]
◼
►
monster mash that's our live episode I'm
[TS]
◼
►
going to pick the clip of me picking
[TS]
◼
►
Skeletor dry huh well Jason I suppose
[TS]
◼
►
this is inevitable so we might as well
[TS]
◼
►
get it out of the way to take Skeletor
[TS]
◼
►
masters and you do not encourage this
[TS]
◼
►
this podcast is over the amazing thing
[TS]
◼
►
about Skeletor is he managed to be a
[TS]
◼
►
memorable villain in what is basically a
[TS]
◼
►
toy commercial and not just a toy
[TS]
◼
►
commercial but a toy commercial whose
[TS]
◼
►
hero is just a muscly dude in a
[TS]
◼
►
loincloth with a pageboy haircut pretty
[TS]
◼
►
good today that does it for me
[TS]
◼
►
alright let's get Steve turning over a
[TS]
◼
►
yeah exactly right I've got a list of
[TS]
◼
►
some some episodes that I like the most
[TS]
◼
►
of which have already been this is what
[TS]
◼
►
happens when you're the host you go last
[TS]
◼
►
is and it's fine it's fine i'm pulling
[TS]
◼
►
out a draft that's not round draft
[TS]
◼
►
totally not draft pick them all again in
[TS]
◼
►
it reinforce our our pics 3 29 the star
[TS]
◼
►
wars travesty do this travesty draft
[TS]
◼
►
that was an idea
[TS]
◼
►
it started with Todd's eerie from
[TS]
◼
►
industrial light and magic suggesting
[TS]
◼
►
that an incomparable episode about all
[TS]
◼
►
the changes that we didn't like in the
[TS]
◼
►
Star Wars special editions might be a
[TS]
◼
►
good episode and it spiraled out of
[TS]
◼
►
control into being I think what is a
[TS]
◼
►
very good fun episode was very happy
[TS]
◼
►
with how that turned out with us picking
[TS]
◼
►
it was like each round was a different
[TS]
◼
►
selection and so is a different kind of
[TS]
◼
►
game then then kind of going over the
[TS]
◼
►
same ground every you know over and over
[TS]
◼
►
again and that was a lot of fun a lot of
[TS]
◼
►
it's fun to get a bunch of nerds who
[TS]
◼
►
really care about something to ven
[TS]
◼
►
nitpick like forcibly knit Pickett and
[TS]
◼
►
that's that that episode did that very
[TS]
◼
►
the monster supervillain draft we talked
[TS]
◼
►
about here that turned out way better
[TS]
◼
►
than I had ever hoped it was a dumb idea
[TS]
◼
►
but i wanted to do a big dumb idea for
[TS]
◼
►
our live show because really if you're
[TS]
◼
►
going to expose your podcast to a bunch
[TS]
◼
►
of potentially new listeners who have
[TS]
◼
►
never heard of it as well as your peers
[TS]
◼
►
in the podcasting mute
[TS]
◼
►
community the most important thing is to
[TS]
◼
►
be representative of just how stupid
[TS]
◼
►
your episodes are and I think we
[TS]
◼
►
I'm so pleased that we grew a my a
[TS]
◼
►
moderate crowd did I guess you could say
[TS]
◼
►
it was small but it was dedicated they
[TS]
◼
►
outnumbered us which wasn't easy there
[TS]
◼
►
yeah we were a lot of us and I think
[TS]
◼
►
Matt young was in the back from magic
[TS]
◼
►
cameras in the back the host of the
[TS]
◼
►
whole time yeah which was great i mean
[TS]
◼
►
he obviously doesn't have a lot going on
[TS]
◼
►
and he could have he could have been in
[TS]
◼
►
a lot of other podcasts that you do not
[TS]
◼
►
know the beer episode was lovely
[TS]
◼
►
yeah engine we mentioned it earlier and
[TS]
◼
►
I wanted to just say that again that as
[TS]
◼
►
somebody who makes podcasts that was i
[TS]
◼
►
spent like a week thinking how am I
[TS]
◼
►
gonna do this by keeping like I have all
[TS]
◼
►
the equipment to make this work I i
[TS]
◼
►
don't know if it actually will work in
[TS]
◼
►
practice and if it doesn't work I'm
[TS]
◼
►
already going to have been drinking at
[TS]
◼
►
the time that it fails and that seems
[TS]
◼
►
like if you won't care it will be a
[TS]
◼
►
disaster in the making and that that was
[TS]
◼
►
like leopard I thought might I would
[TS]
◼
►
feel really bad if it completely failed
[TS]
◼
►
after Jesse did all that work to send
[TS]
◼
►
this beer and it turned out that is
[TS]
◼
►
ridiculously technically complicated as
[TS]
◼
►
it was because we had five people around
[TS]
◼
►
a table in my garage and another for
[TS]
◼
►
people on skype it
[TS]
◼
►
it totally worked and it sounded good
[TS]
◼
►
and everybody drank beer and if you
[TS]
◼
►
notice if you go back and listen to it
[TS]
◼
►
what's happening in our house at the end
[TS]
◼
►
when we're talking is jesse keeps
[TS]
◼
►
opening more beer and giving it to us
[TS]
◼
►
and it's it be that guy is dangerous
[TS]
◼
►
that guy is dangerous and you just kept
[TS]
◼
►
opening beer i liked the bit where where
[TS]
◼
►
Moses is given the opportunity to say
[TS]
◼
►
his thank yous and goodbyes and instead
[TS]
◼
►
you just hear another can open it was
[TS]
◼
►
like that it was like that but that was
[TS]
◼
►
over there was a fun thing to do and
[TS]
◼
►
and it did and it worked out that's the
[TS]
◼
►
best thing about it was kind of
[TS]
◼
►
ambitious and weird and in the end it
[TS]
◼
►
was also a good episode it wasn't just
[TS]
◼
►
that we've got to drink beer we got a
[TS]
◼
►
good episode out of it and anybody else
[TS]
◼
►
who wants to send us beer let me remind
[TS]
◼
►
you you can do it it's been done it work
[TS]
◼
►
yeah uh number 320 so-so Frankenstein
[TS]
◼
►
island the story is as I mentioned on
[TS]
◼
►
that episode we watched power we watched
[TS]
◼
►
the power we watch this movie out in
[TS]
◼
►
this is a movie that i have been
[TS]
◼
►
watching since high school back in
[TS]
◼
►
sonora california and so to watch it
[TS]
◼
►
with you and to have this sort of like
[TS]
◼
►
all the jokes that we made in the late
[TS]
◼
►
in the mid to late eighties made again
[TS]
◼
►
in 2016 was weird and great and the best
[TS]
◼
►
thing about it now is that not only the
[TS]
◼
►
people who watched the movie for this
[TS]
◼
►
podcast but the listeners who have
[TS]
◼
►
uncovered Frankenstein island now
[TS]
◼
►
understand and will reflect back to me
[TS]
◼
►
these references that were my own like
[TS]
◼
►
little private set of references since
[TS]
◼
►
the mid eighties and now it's just sort
[TS]
◼
►
of out there and the best thing of all
[TS]
◼
►
is that every now and then I get a
[TS]
◼
►
message from tony sindelar saying you
[TS]
◼
►
know I was thinking about Frankenstein
[TS]
◼
►
island again says I think about it
[TS]
◼
►
almost every day had the dream again
[TS]
◼
►
it's great episode 3 of something cool
[TS]
◼
►
cat episode also has come up that was i
[TS]
◼
►
I don't I mean that episode that movie
[TS]
◼
►
does not deserve 20 minutes of analysis
[TS]
◼
►
and we gave it almost two hours of
[TS]
◼
►
analysis it doesn't hurt more than that
[TS]
◼
►
way and I i would like to say that that
[TS]
◼
►
and I think listener who whose letter
[TS]
◼
►
for whatever reason didn't get in here
[TS]
◼
►
but one of the the listener of favorite
[TS]
◼
►
moments that I think we should probably
[TS]
◼
►
play is of course the dramatic rendition
[TS]
◼
►
of the lyrics to one of the cool cat
[TS]
◼
►
original songs as read aloud by mr.
[TS]
◼
►
Philip Michaels i actually took a ah
[TS]
◼
►
screencap of the song and I'd like to do
[TS]
◼
►
a dramatic again of it now this is cool
[TS]
◼
►
cat song quote marks cool cat loves to
[TS]
◼
►
run him does he ever cool cat loves to
[TS]
◼
►
yeah cool cast loves to rock
[TS]
◼
►
cool cat loves to play the guitar and he
[TS]
◼
►
looks so cool cool cat was to play the
[TS]
◼
►
drums yeah and he placed them so good
[TS]
◼
►
cool cat loves to rock yeah cool cats
[TS]
◼
►
cool cat loves to play the guitar and he
[TS]
◼
►
looks so cool cool cat loves to play the
[TS]
◼
►
drums yeah and he plays them so good
[TS]
◼
►
Jax is the coolest cat in the world
[TS]
◼
►
he's so cool yes he is here
[TS]
◼
►
wow this time I mean you really Derek
[TS]
◼
►
Derek savages artwork needs to be
[TS]
◼
►
rendered in that way so that was a that
[TS]
◼
►
was a great moment if anything needs
[TS]
◼
►
analysis i think it might be Derek it i
[TS]
◼
►
mean if if anyone can consistently throw
[TS]
◼
►
me out of my chair of the way the way
[TS]
◼
►
you get thrown out of your chair
[TS]
◼
►
sometimes it's Phil yeah he's alright he
[TS]
◼
►
wrote down the lyrics i mean really
[TS]
◼
►
that's that's the thing just write down
[TS]
◼
►
the lyrics he had to pause the screen on
[TS]
◼
►
that very small text word document that
[TS]
◼
►
oh yes averages looking at which he
[TS]
◼
►
couldn't even cheat and use the actual
[TS]
◼
►
lyrics from the subsequent song because
[TS]
◼
►
they were completely different
[TS]
◼
►
it was listening Nathan who wrote in and
[TS]
◼
►
i have found his letter now and that was
[TS]
◼
►
listening and that was his his favorite
[TS]
◼
►
Phil's dramatic reading here another his
[TS]
◼
►
other favorite moment was the bit where
[TS]
◼
►
Phil tells the story about how he and
[TS]
◼
►
Lisa watch the actual hollywood
[TS]
◼
►
christmas parade that kool Kat was in at
[TS]
◼
►
which we all react dramatically the
[TS]
◼
►
hollywood / a Hollywood parade
[TS]
◼
►
he also says the Skeletor loop clip must
[TS]
◼
►
always live on in some form haha
[TS]
◼
►
interesting yeah that's not happening
[TS]
◼
►
alright 52 game show episodes i want to
[TS]
◼
►
mention one is as mentioned before
[TS]
◼
►
tempted by the little man i do think
[TS]
◼
►
that was the best episode and and that
[TS]
◼
►
was tough because i think the game show
[TS]
◼
►
in general i said this last year and I
[TS]
◼
►
think it's still true i think is just
[TS]
◼
►
pure as pure entertainment goes it's my
[TS]
◼
►
favorite thing that we do and and I hope
[TS]
◼
►
more people discover it because it is it
[TS]
◼
►
is soap so fun to do
[TS]
◼
►
it's also fun to listen to and uh my
[TS]
◼
►
other game show episodes i wanted to
[TS]
◼
►
pick which hasn't been mentioned it so
[TS]
◼
►
i'm going to mention it here give it a
[TS]
◼
►
game show episode 30 3 exits are unknown
[TS]
◼
►
in which we played jungle adventure
[TS]
◼
►
oh wow you enjoyed i enjoy a sick bag
[TS]
◼
►
did not enjoy playing it at all it was a
[TS]
◼
►
disaster like Zippo light zippo but i'm
[TS]
◼
►
still frustrated it works it was super
[TS]
◼
►
frustrating and that's one where i
[TS]
◼
►
actually did edit out a big chunk of our
[TS]
◼
►
movement because we just kept moving
[TS]
◼
►
around in the four in the gentleman
[TS]
◼
►
right movement I thought you said the
[TS]
◼
►
word movement I said where's the poop
[TS]
◼
►
jokes yeah thats everywhere that's how
[TS]
◼
►
it works but that in the end it didn't
[TS]
◼
►
go through it I and were traumatized by
[TS]
◼
►
it you find you would find it amusing it
[TS]
◼
►
was uh it was funny and what Tony took
[TS]
◼
►
out of it is next time next time fewer
[TS]
◼
►
players and certain players probably
[TS]
◼
►
should come back but that's okay it was
[TS]
◼
►
it was a beautiful disaster and edited
[TS]
◼
►
into something a little bit more
[TS]
◼
►
there's a 13-minute long bonus track of
[TS]
◼
►
us wandering lost him up in the jungle
[TS]
◼
►
that i don't recommend anyone listen to
[TS]
◼
►
bonus is being used pretty generously
[TS]
◼
►
only 30 and it's it's 13 minutes of
[TS]
◼
►
these dinosaurs on the bone and
[TS]
◼
►
administering that I'm holding up the
[TS]
◼
►
map that I drew waving it at the
[TS]
◼
►
