Episode 308 – Atrocities Committed on Yoda

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

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!

Episode 307 – Crusty Drawers

This Week: Kevin and Kristin rattle through a whole bunch of movie news, including confirmed actors in the new Star Wars movie, the potential involvement of Christopher Nolan in The Justice League and James Bond, plus a listener question about The Guardians of the Galaxy. This leaves scant time for movie reviews, which is a good thing since neither had a chance to see Dead Man Down or Emperor. Though they do have a chance to thoroughly discuss Oz the Great and Powerful and how guys still try to get laid in magical lands. Finally, they tear through some DVD and Blu-ray recommendations before riding off into the sunset.

OSNAP #24: You Are My Karl Pilkington

OSNAP: You Are My Karl Pilkington
This week, Kevin starts things out awkwardly for Merrill, giving details of bodily functions. Merrill tries to steer the conversation back to sanity. However, that insanity includes an uncanny amount of imagery of him dancing in the nude. They also discuss whether it’s more embarrassing to be caught with your pants down whilst flaccid or not. Eventually, Kevin admits that he sees Merrill as his special someone in the podcasting world. Too bad that special someone is his own American version of Karl Pilkington. Sure, there are some serious topics discussed, but not before they comment and react to bowling alley stripper news and how it can contribute to the delinquency of a minor. Oh, snap!
