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.

Episode 254: Ultra HD, 10 Cloverfield Lane, and Chuck's Disc-astrophe

This week starts with the traditional updates, then the guys dive headfirst into one driplet of movie news - Indiana Jones 5. What advice does Chuck have for the people already hating on the movie? Chuck and Brad then hit up the concept of 4K discs and Ultra HD physical media. Chuck then promotes the below Web Couliers and Brad tries to refuse to put one of them up.
The guys reminisce about the heyday of wrestling when it featured moves like the Stinkface, then discuss the more-recent movie The Gift. 10 Cloverfield Lane is next up, and the guys offer a (for once) spoiler-free review. Some brief talk about the Open Mic they did earlier this week, Chuck talks about his new guitars, then Brad talks about his week and feelings of low self-worth. They discus Zootopia, then Chuck relates the "hilarious" tale of "Bruce Wang."
The episode closes with the guys trying to figure out what to do with Chuck's salvageable DVD collection going forward. This synopsis is still signed "Brad." Please don't let Chuck change it.

I think "Disc-Tastrophe" would be better than "Disc-astrophe" - Chuck
