#349: Chuck's Ebay Fight, Deep Blue Sea 2, and Ant-Man & The Wasp



It's just Chuck and Brad this week! We promote ourselves, Chuck tells me about a sweet new enamel pin he received from Reicheru Art, then he tells me about an eBay fight he had about a month ago that he specifically saved for the podcast. It's one of the best "Chuck's Petty Printouts" ever! After that, we get into the news about new tours for The Lawrence Arms and Frank Turner (separately). Chuck tells me about Deep Blue Sea 2 and I try to figure out other water-based horror movies. We talk about the trailer for Ant-Man & The Wasp and talk about our level of excitement for that versus other Marvel movies. We follow up on our stories about Nobody's Boyscout and then close up shop with our recent Royal Rumble party. A fun, back-to-earth podcast for the two of us.

#348 - The Story of The Malted Barley



Recorded on location at The Malted Barley in Providence, RI. We are joined this week by Malted Barley owner Ron Koller and a rotating cast of staff members at The Malted Barley - Brian, Cory, Rich, and Kolby. We learn about their roles and stories, and how they fit into the larger story of Ron traveling the country to open a craft beer specialty restaurant. How did he decide on Providence, on the location, on the menu? Listen and find out, baby! AND THEY DROP THEIR NEXT STEPS ON US AS WELL WHAT WHAT!!!!

#347 - The Story of Nic Hallenbeck and Nobody's Boyscout



We're joined this week by Nic Hallenbeck and Sean Murphy, two pieces of local band Nobody's Boyscout! They have an album coming out and wanted to talk about it! But first, we dove into Nic's entire backstory (having already gotten Sean's backstory in episode 273). How did Nic rebel in highschool? Did he have a bowl cut, rat tail, or both? So many questions! We eventually work our way to the start of this band and how they came to making this new album, titled In Tongues and available starting this Saturday.

Episode 345: Brammies and Chammies 2017 - Part One



It's that time of year! It's (part one of) our annual "Brammies and Chammies" awards! This is somehow the NINTH time we've done a best-of episode like this! Wow! Join us as we celebrate our favorite things in the world of television, including a long discussion about how viewing habits have changed! We talk about our favorite games we played in 2017, including a possible new favorite game of all time for me! From there, Chuck tells me about all the great restaurants he loves (that are probably too fancy for me) (which doesn't take much). We close out this episode talking about our favorite movies we saw in 2017.

Episode 344: Chuck's Nintendo Scam and A Look Back At 2017



We kick off this week with a discussion about some awesome enamel pins Chuck received from the good people at Wicked Critter Co. Ill admit it -they're pretty great, even if Chuck's the only one getting hooked up*. From there, Chuck tells me about his scam to make enough money to get a Nintendo Switch (plus games), an NES Classic (above retail), and an SNES Classic (plus a wireless controller) for a total of $0 spent. And he did it!! Wow! NOTE: If I don't seem impressed when Chuck's telling me about it, it's because I'm not surprised he's able to pull these things off.
After that, we talk about our feelings concerning Chuck and Brad's Best Christmas Show Ever, which was December 21. After that, we look back, week by week, at ALL of 2017 and talk about the things we did artistically and personally and how they shaped us as performers and individuals.
