Episode 31-Red Dead Redemption 2 and other games

Red Dead Redemption 2 (Game Strong!!!)

A host of single player games have released this in 2018 and the guys start a discussion on it…… or so they would have you believe. They of course Segway several time in the course of this conversation… but they do talk about Red Dead Redemption 2, they stray off into several topics, such as:

  • Of Course they talk about Roleplaying and the idea of playing a western Red Dead Redemption 2
  • Movies again, and yes Dc comes up
  • Game adjacent subjects such as home set up and the need for a 4K tv
  • Dragonball Super Movie Broly…. I don’t know how that happens
  • Marge Simpson seems to be there and grumbles at them?
  • Witcher Streaming series starring Henry Cavill and his blasted hair issues
  • Pete is not there to keep the guys on course
  • George Lucas getting all that toy money back in the day
  • Game Strong rant…. goes on a little too long

So they have a pretty nonsense filled discussion and a topic I wouldn’t call them experts on…. but they have fun. I’m gonna start using this page to start ragging them. It might be fun and only folks who read this will actually notice it.

Jumbosode 02- Fall Comics Review with Travis Rivas

Fall Comics review with Travis Rivas

Beau goes out on assignment to meetup with comic creator Travis Rivas (the 2nd Shift, Accidental Alien, Morning Star, Unstoppable Cherub) to review comic releases so far this fall and they have a lot to cover in this 2nd Grand JUMBO-EPISODE! So strap in and get ready for the long haul….

  • Beau has a Secret Comic Script?
  • A Scarlet Spider apologist on the show?!!
  • Spidergeddon
  • Iron-Man is a Dick… we should really discuss that
  • Is anyone gonna acknowledge that the 90’s cartoon inspired all the Spiderverse stuff
  • Wolverine is Back and has hot Claws?
  • Madripoor Mysteries and Adamantium Adventures
  • We have too many different comic rating systems in this episode

So Beau and Travis sit down (at what seems to be an airstrip, Thanks a lot Beau) and have talk about comics thus far this fall. Like I said earlier, it’s a long episode so strap in.

Episode 29- To the Fandom (Fanatics)

Fandom or Fanatics

A couple of months ago some of the Fandom went into an uproar over Voltron the Legendary Defender, the Guys usually avoid getting into subjects like this but it couldn’t be avoided, but they also couldn’t even stay on topic anyway. As such the talk about:

  • Beau has quite the opening statement full of love …?
  • Protect Stan Lee, he needs it, Stop abusing him
  • Green Lantern used to be a hippie?
  • Mike (the Darker Loader Mike) keeps channeling his inner M’baku on the War Line
  • Beau Intros Voltron
  • Who should get Busy (Shipping Characters)
  • The guys are so out of control they curse before the intro!
  • What the Hell is Raptor Ranchers?!!

They go on a tear over the subjects today, they don’t even know what this episode is about. Pete wasn’t here for this one, he has to much chill

Orange is the New Black-Mike Houston C.O. Lee Dixon

So today the guys (specifically Mike and Pete) talk to Mike Houston (C.O. Lee Dixon) from Orange is the New Black and they go on a tear discussing topics across the board such as:

  • Why Pete should really watch Orange is the New Black
  • Villains, Antagonist, etc and how they need to be human as well in a narrative
  • Acting as a craft in general
  • Other shows like, Sneaky Pete and Boardwalk Empire
  • How TV and Movies have shaped views of certain topics folks don’t commonly know about
  • We go into Orange is the New Black and his Character Lee Dixon
  • Wow! The prison system
  • Being honest in the portrayal of a character
  • Beau and the other Mike are not with us in this Episode
  • can’t wait till season 7 OITNB

They get into really heavy topics but still manage to keep it light hearted, No idea how they pull that off, all in all Mike Houston is an awesome guy and it was great to have him on

Minisode 08-Beau Talks Star Trek Discovery

Beau tries to sell us on Star Trek Discovery

Good Luck Beau! Trying to sell Pete is hard enough but Mike is near aggressively abusive about not liking Star Trek Discovery but Beau does his best as Mike works to sideline the topic almost as bad as getting him to talk about Vampires. The sidelines Mike throws include:

  • What the other Mike is up to…. Who cares
  • Constantly cutting into Beau about how the O.G. series was better
  • Not letting go of the 1st episodes of the series
  • Going on to long on the Enterprise series
  • Bringing me in (Sound editor Lexx) to talk about Spocks Father
  • Once again talking about his Orange is the New Black obsession
  • Bringing up West World way to much
  • The other Mike is not here today so Beau has to deal with unrestrained loud Mike…..
  • Girl with all the Gifts? WTF does this have to do with Star Trek?

I wish Beau the best with this….. good luck. To think, this is Beau’s Podcast

Minisode 7- City of Heroes-in memory of

City of Heroes Should return?

Today the guys flashback to an old MMO City of Heroes, a game near and dear to their heart and to the heart of many others.

Back in 2012 the game was prematurely canned. Not do to failing sales or money in general but because it’s foreign parent company was ailing overseas so it reigned in itself.

The community in that game was like no other. The community never truly died. with several attempts to convince the games rights to be released and sold to a company that would keep it going. To this day the game is still remembered. Families, friendships and romances formed on this game. Social connections that hold still today.

  • Listen to our memories of this game.
  • Hear our cries for it’s return
  • Decide if it should even return
  • Listen to our memories of the Game
  • Everyone of us played it.
  • Pete even made a Cartoon of the game and a 2nd one

Enjoy the Minisode

Episode 25-Ant-man and Wasp Spoiler Review!!! And a little Infinity War Spoilery

Ant-Man and Wasp, a Big Small Movie, So cute

Ant-man and Wasp came out a couple of weeks ago, now the guys have all seen it (a couple of times for some of us) now the guys are gonna talk about it. Join the guys Pete, Mike and Mike to gush over the movie

Well these thoughts bring up the following:

  • Likes and Dislikes of Ant-Man and Wasp
  • Pete discovers that the Incredibles are a Homage (Ripoff) of the Fantastic 4
  • Ant-man and Wasp have amazing powers in that movie
  • Wasp’s place in the MCU, what she brings to the Movie
  • The shrinking Powers Make no sense…
  • Pym Particles are more ridiculous than any Tech in the MCU
  • Thanos did not really think his grand plan through
  • Ant-man’s place in Avengers 4
  • Avengers 4 Speculations
  • What happens with Ghost after this
  • Is Janet Magic now?
  • Once again how the DCEU could learn from this.

The Ant-man and Wasp movie is the first movie to follow Avengers Infinity War, can it hold up to the expectations left after that epic movie?

Episode 24-Comics Using Media to their Best? Batman’s Wedding

Batman’s Wedding happened…. Nope, No it didn’t

In the wake of Batman’s Wedding that didn’t happen along with Peter & Kitty’s wedding; also didn’t happen (Who cares about Gambit and Rogue) the guys started Thinking, (I know it’s dangerous when they do that) How many big media events happen in comics that don’t pan out.

Well these thoughts bring up the following:

  • Batman and Catwoman are gonna get married anyway
  • Why are comics failing to spread to larger audiences
  • Marvel fails Even though they has 17 Billion in free advertisement from the largest movie franchise?
  • The Death of Superman is a perfect example of a media chance missed
  • Why can’t Marvel match up in their comics with what’s going on in the Movies
  • Why is Captain America never around in the comics, when his movie is out?
  • Separate Politics from comics or at least disguise it better!
  • The guys actually almost stay on topic for most of the episode

It doesn’t even stop there, the guys go on so much more examples of missed media opportunities that could’ve benefited the comic industry.
