#350 - Brad's Dad's Comic Strips, The Cloverfield Paradox, and Chuck Defeats A Troll



Once we promote our social media accounts and our upcoming shows, I tell Chuck about the comic strips my dad mailed to me. Like, in the mail. The postal service. Not electronic. Snail mail. We talk about the sweet enamel pins we received from our friends at eerie Face, then Chuck tells me about his fancy dinner at the Dorrance in Providence. We talk about a listener's email, then our experience with the Super Bowl. After the Super Bowl, we watched The Cloverfield Paradox and talk about our feelings on the movie itself and also its place in cinema/streaming history. We discuss Chuck's computer drama at length and how it was saved by Backblaze, who is also a new sponsor of the podcast. We close out the episode by Chuck relating a tale of confronting an internet troll and having the situation work out in kind of the best way possible.

Episode 299: Local Restaurants, Super Bowl Analysis, and Dead Rising 4



Another shorter episode to round out the week! After a quick plug for this weekend's Spectacular Cookie Smackdown, I relate a cute little story involving tech support for my dad. Chuck talks with me about a Fast and Furious Live show (I'm still confused), then we talk about some restaurants we've been to lately - how delicious were they? And would we talk about them if they weren't? Chuck talks about helping some friends move (my shoulder is still messed up!) and then we dive into a field of expertise: our Super Bowl experience. What did we think about the narrative of the game? Did Chuck's mom make great snacks for her party? Stuff like that! Chuck tosses in another restaurant mention, then we talk about the full experience of Dead Rising 4, including (at some point) spoilers for the end of the game. That's it for this week!
