Episode 309 – Die Hard In Your Pants

Posted on

This Week: Kevin pats Kristin on the back for getting closer to the box office topper than he did. He, of course, expects a return pat when he wins next time for sure. Then they chat about some scant movie news before moving on to this week’s reviews. Find out why Kristin thought The Croods was too rude and why Kevin thought Admission was too snobby. Also, find out not much about Olympus Has Fallen because the critic screening was held out to the bitter-end last minute. Then it’s on to the DVD and Blu-ray recommendations before Kevin and Kristin say good-bye to the Magical Studio in the Sky for another week.

OSNAP #26: The Rumpelstiltskin of Penises

Posted on

OSNAP: The Rumpelstiltskin of Penises
This week, Merrill shares with the audience how his spectacular week was derailed by a souffle cup of ketchup and him forgetting he had pockets in his pants. However, before all that, Kevin rages a bit about people raging about daylight savings time. Being the nature of the podcast, the conversation soon turns towards porn stars and the surprise of having them @reply you on Twitter. (Yeah, that’s a shout-out to @GingerLee.) Finally, in the ending segment, things gets all sorts of crazy with talk of stealing penises and the biology behind masturbation. Oh, snap!

Episode 308 – Atrocities Committed on Yoda

Posted on

This Week: Kevin and Kristin face a massive wall of movies to review (and by “massive,” we mean “three and a half”). But before they hit on the new releases, they give their take on the box office, and Kevin quickly reviews the films from the previous week that were not screened. Kristin and Kevin also sound off about the groundbreaking fundraising for the Veronica Mars movie and what that means for other director. Then it’s right into movie reviews of Stoker, The Incredible Burt Wonderstone and The Call. Finally, Kevin confesses his show choir history, and Kristin recounts the strange kidnapping of Yoda by her Smurfs. Things then wrap up with Kevin blundering the DVD Round-Up. It’s a hot mess this week in the Magical Studio in the Sky.

OSNAP #25: Munchkins Galore Will Kill Themselves

Posted on

OSNAP: Munchkins Galore Will Kill Themselves
This week, Kevin goes off on a couple old rants that old Idiot Boxers might remember. He rages about overly-self-important local news programming and how it affects his watching of his favorite shows. Questions about how fire in Kansas City, Missouri, impacts people in Columbus, Ohio, are raised, as well as why double-letterboxing is never okay. There’s other hot topics discussed, including a final judgement on the mysterious Munchkin death in The Wizard of Oz. Kevin also talk about being sent DVDs by listeners and what messages they might also send. Finally, things wind up with a crazy-ass Gawker news story about pit bull sex and possible drug use. Oh, snap!
