Episode 210: Our Video Screening and Avengers: Age of Ultron


Episode number 210 of the podcast features Brad and Chuck riding solo together. Somehow. It starts with some Senior Discount updates, Chuck mentions the below Web Coulier, then offers some Movie Driplets about a Kingsman sequel and the Days of Future Past: Rogue Cut. C&B then discuss the recent screening of the video they've been working on for months - how did it go over? What worked well, and what worked......less......well.
After a thorough discussion, Brad tells Chuck about his trip to Indiana, and Chuck tells Brad about what he missed here in New England. A quick mention of some wrestling topics, then the heart of the podcast is breached.
Avengers: Age of Ultron is doing very well at the box office - what did Chuck and Brad think of it? What did they like and dislike, and why did they feel that way? After talking about the movie (HEAVY SPOILERS), they talk about a poorly-written article that discusses the Black Widow's role in the movie.

Episode 156: The Story of Bad Larry, Part Two


It's the return of the Larry! This week, part two of the two-part interview with two "handsome studs" (their words, not ours) from Bad Larry. Chuck and Brad welcome Nick and Walt back to the program (or rather continue with them from last week). After some quick plugs for upcoming gigs, the interview resumes, and we get more old-school Bad Larry/Senior Discount/Providence Music Scene stories and insanity!

Episode 153: The Story of Eric and Soundoff


It's our second "big interview" podcast, as Chuck and Brad delve deep into the twisted(?) mind of Eric Maksood, lead singer of local band Soundoff. Before we get to all that, though, we get updates on Soundoff's upcoming show, a Brad performance update, and some news from Senior Discount courtesy of Chuck. The boys then wax ecstatic about the possibilities of the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles trailer, then talk about an April Fool's Day prank perpetrated ON Chuck, that affected him extremely emotionally.
The interview itself starts with a lot of background on Maksood's...uh...background in music. What songs/instruments motifs influenced him? How did that lead to him forming a band? Hear about the lows and highs of his journey through the Rhode Island music scene with refreshing candor and honesty! And also pretty much every band name he's ever encountered!

Episode 123: Ender's Game and Rolling Stone



The 123rd edition of Agreeing to Disagree begins with Senior Discount updates. Chuck elucidates the audience on upcoming shows in Boston and Providence, as well as a Chuck Staton acoustic performance in the near future! Equally as exciting is an announcement about a future podcast-related event!
The boys dive into the Web Couliers, possibly assigning frequent podcast listener "Classless Chad Kafka" a new career. After that, Chuck brings his "industry insider" viewpoint with some movie news relating to the announcement of Man of Steel 2, a viral website for the next "Planet of the Apes" movie, and the next movie by the Jackass guys, Bad Grandpa.
Chuck and Brad announce their campaign to "End Burrito Skimpage."
More news is bandied about, as the dynamic duo tackle the recently-announced Family Guy/Simpsons crossover and what it means for both shows. They talk about Chuck Palahniuk's sequel to Fight Club, which will be produced as a graphic novel. C&B titter about James Franco being named Comedy Central's newest roastee.
The two major topics of the week are explored next. First, the controversy surrounding the upcoming Ender's Game movie and the furor surrounding the author of the original story's views on gay marriage. Can the artist be separated from the art? Will the one-fortieth of a cent that gets to the author from one ticket sale make a difference? Following that, the boyz discuss the Boston Bomber being on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine and what (if anything) that means. Also, Chuck passionately defends film star Mike Myers.
