Episode 264: A Discussion About Captain America: Civil War

We finally get to talk about Captain America: Civil War! And who better to talk about it with than our pal Justin Marra. After some project plugs, we talk about the emails we received this week (including a web coulier below). From there it's a natural progression to some movie driplets, including a possible Ocean's 11 remake and rumors about the Fantastic Four sequel. Chuck talks about a beloved local retailer closing, we talk about the newest Fat Wreck Chords comp, then we are legally bound to discuss the first successful penis transplant.
After that, it's a quick spoiler-free review of the movie, then we commence with an in-depth discussion on the film's strengths and perceived weaknesses. We even find time to define "insurgent." Also, there was no legal binding about the penis thing. Just so you know.

Episode 223: Bad Blood, Social Etiquette, and Fantastic Four

Episode 223 features Chuck and Brad rockin' their respective microphones all episode. After the traditional Bradprov/Senior Discount updates, the guys talk about the below Web Coulier. This leads into a discussion about music videos and their merits. Should they be performance-based? A narrative? What purpose do they serve? And how many videos do C&B actually remember?
Chuck offers a Movie Driplet about a forthcoming Back To The Future documentary, then some news about an Xbox One DVR. The dudes also discuss social etiquette vis a vis door holding for strangers in public. It's a neglected topic!
The main topic for this week's episode is a thorough discussion of the new movie Fantastic Four. Many critics panned the film, and audiences have stayed away or hated it. How do Chuck and Brad feel, and how do they express it?
