13 Aug 2017OV217 - The Dark Tower - Review 1 of 2 (Guest: Tony Troxell from Geeking in Indiana)02:14:45

At long last, The Dark Tower was finally released in theaters. Tiny and I saw it together and then I saw it with our friend Tony Troxell from Geeking in Indiana. So we invited Tony on the show to review the movie with us. Not only that, but I also talked to frequent guest Robert Fekkes about the movie and got Mike to submit a Pine Tree Perfume segment. (Note: The Fekkes review and Mike’s Pine Tree Perfume can be found in the next episode.)

“Matt and Tiny discuss the Under the Dome premiere, deconstruct the Apatow method and talk about where their opinions differ from the masses. Tiny also shares how he discovered Star Wars and Matt ponders the changing landscape of TV audiences. SPOILER NOTE: At 13:17 – 14:00 Matt spoils a plot from season 3 of Arrested Development.”

Want to skip ahead to our main topic? We discuss Our Controversial Opinions 15mins, 45secs into the podcast.

You can find us on iTunes now. Just click the iTunes link at the top and subscribe. While you’re there, rate and review us. This episode was the first one Tiny and I handled completely on our own. As a result, the sound quality isn’t quite as good as the first one. I hope it isn’t too distracting. We’re going to buy our own equipment before long so we’ll either have consistently great quality or be consistently subpar. Either way, this was a fun episode to record. We got a chance to share our more controversial movie and TV opinions. There are sure to be some interesting comments about it.

25 Jun 2015OV112 - TV Second Seasons and Our 2-Year Podcast Anniversary01:36:10

This week Tiny and I celebrate the two-year anniversary of the podcast with a discussion about our favorite “second seasons” of TV. We talk about The Office, The Wire, Lost, Breaking Bad and more. In lieu of potpourri, we reminisce on our 2nd year as podcasters.

In the episode, I incorrectly name October 5th as Back to the Future Day. It’s October 21st. I’m ashamed and deserve to have my car covered in manure.
