Episode 255: Warped Tour, VR Headsets, and Gawker/Hogan

After Brad fouls up yet another intro, the guys promote some upcoming projects. Chuck gives a brief update about the condition of his belongings following last November's house fire, then talks about his new favorite wing from our pals at Boneheads! The guys went to see an independent wrestling show - which WWE Hall of Famer was there, and did he stink anyone's face? The guys re-review Man of Steel before talking about the lineup for this year's Warped Tour. Pretty exciting!
Chuck talks about the VR headset that came with his new phone and the guys talk about the merits of virtual reality for a while. Brad doesn't think it's socially acceptable to wear a VR headset on a plane, but does think it's socially acceptable to wear a sleep mask...or something like that. Chuck talks about this season of The Real World and VH1's new show Family Therapy.
Chuck and Brad then discuss the lawsuit between Hulk Hogan and Gawker Media, and try and define what makes something newsworthy. It goes exactly as well as you'd expect.

TEASER: "All That" Reunion Special

Episode 120: This Is The End, Man of Steel, Dan Soder, and Mick Foley

Episode 120 features the wonderful and multicolor-coiffed Cindy Montville joining Chuck and Brad! After some Senior Discount updates - including TWO show announcements! - and a discussion of the below Web Couliers, C&B dive into some live events they've recently attended. They discuss rising comedic star Dan Soder's set at Nick's Comedy Stop in Boston and review it thoroughly. Once that is done, the boyz can invite Cindy to join the discussion about recent movie "This Is The End." How do they feel about the comedic vehicle starring podcast fans James Franco, Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, and Jonah Hill?
Once that is done, they talk about Mick Foley's recent show in Fairhaven, and how the Hardcore Legend/New York Times bestselling author is an entertaining storyteller in person. Brad laments not making more of an impression while in line for Mick's autograph. Finally, the three pals talk about the new Superman film "Man of Steel." (Note: Brad almost kills Chuck during this segment, I believe. Unintentionally.) They discuss the burdens of films that have to tell origin stories and how this movie raises the bar for fight scenes in superhero movies. A very fun podcast, brought to you by the good people at America Online.
