This Week: Recovering from a weekend of eating hard boiled eggs and Easter candy, Kevin invites new guest Vish into the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk about genre films, bullying and the travesty that is The Three Stooges. They sound-off about sci-fi movies and then Kevin gushes over his love of the horror genre with a spoiler-free review of The Cabin in the Woods. In the infamous middle segment, Kevin pushes around Bully while Vish offers a different cultural view of bullying. They also talk about box office, what British spies have to do with Sid Vicious and a Fat Guy Five which ranks the real Three Stooges. Then it’s off to the DVD Round-Up and bidding farewell.

This Week: For the big Easter weekend special, Kevin invites Dame Elisabeth Rappe back into the Magical Studio in the Sky for a marathon podcasting session. After discussing the finer points of dating in Mass Effect, they chat about Titanic 3D and American Reunion. After dropping some swear words in the radio segments, Elisabeth gets tight-lipped for the infamous middle segment, but the conversation goes completely off the rails. Topics include breast size, dolphin rape and the mysteries of John Denver. And that’s in addition to all the other fancy discussion about box office, listener feedback and a Fat Guy Five about fourth movies. Finally, it’s on to the DVD Round-Up and riding off into the sunset.

In this very special episode: The Idiots recover from April Fools by not winning the lottery and continuing to watch the small amount of interesting television that is still out there. They take an opportunity to answer a listener email then move along to television news. After some reviewing of shows, they each give out some recommendations and sound-offs. Oh, and there’s a bit of an autotuning going on, which will make the show all that more awesome.

This Week: After weeks of new guest hosts, Kevin invites two veterans back into the Magical Studio in the Sky to talk about the new movies of the week. Liam and Ben Carr, his sons, join in on a discussion of Wrath of the Titans and Mirror Mirror. They also sound off about slave labor in the third grade classroom, what it means to be on “playground duty” and which of their teachers Kevin thinks are hot. They also chat a little about The Hunger Games and how it will fare this week at the box office as well as gushing over the classic television show Mystery-Science Theater 3000 (which might include a rendition of the theme song). Then they give a Fat Guy Five about which movies are great for kids to see in 3D and also some DVD recommendations.
