#431 - The Hella Megatour, Embracing the Patriots, and What Cheer Writers' Club Podcast Party

We start out talking about Chuck's newfound appreciation for football, specifically following the New England Patriots (ugh!). From there, we discuss the announcement of the Hella Mega Tour featuring Green Day, Weezer, Fall Out Boy, and the Interrupters. We talk about our videogame night and SNES games on the Nintendo Switch. Chuck tells me about attending a yard sale and making a pretty outstanding purchase and we discuss my disdain for yard sales in general. We talk about the new restaurant in town, La Pinata (I can't get the accent mark to appear over the n!) and the What Cheer Writers' Club's Podcast Listening Party. We close by talking about how quickly the summer passed and what is coming up for the fall.

#365 - Crom Worx Pins and Splatoon 2

A rare "short" episode for us, as Chuck is fighting against a sore throat (and losing, as you'll be able to hear)! He has enough strength to plug our show at the Comedy Connection on June 21, then tell me about the awesome enamel pins he got from Crom Worx. We discuss our recent stand-up outing at AS220, then I talk about my recent adventures playing Splatoon 2. That's it this week! Crazy short!

Episode 344: Chuck's Nintendo Scam and A Look Back At 2017

We kick off this week with a discussion about some awesome enamel pins Chuck received from the good people at Wicked Critter Co. Ill admit it -they're pretty great, even if Chuck's the only one getting hooked up*. From there, Chuck tells me about his scam to make enough money to get a Nintendo Switch (plus games), an NES Classic (above retail), and an SNES Classic (plus a wireless controller) for a total of $0 spent. And he did it!! Wow! NOTE: If I don't seem impressed when Chuck's telling me about it, it's because I'm not surprised he's able to pull these things off.
After that, we talk about our feelings concerning Chuck and Brad's Best Christmas Show Ever, which was December 21. After that, we look back, week by week, at ALL of 2017 and talk about the things we did artistically and personally and how they shaped us as performers and individuals.

Episode 332: New Futurama, The Future Of Technology, and "UHF" Live

We're joined this week by local self-proclaimed beauty queen Gina Mastrostefano. We review some listener emails discussing the power of language, a Die Hard Christmas book, the Ducktales theme song in emojis, and a sketch from James Corden. We then duck into movie driplets about an upcoming Jim Carrey/Andy Kaufman documentary and the new Futurama episode (recorded through Nerdist). Chuck tells us about new innovations in wireless charging; this leads to a long discussion about the future of technology and what it will look like and how quickly we'll get there. An unplanned tangent that leads to some really interesting places! Even more interesting than the year 3000? The new Batman/TMNT comic book crossover! We talk about the band "Decapitated" and the charges against them, then talk about Chuck's Nintendo Switch and we all marvel at his Mario Kart prowess. We recount a recent trip to see a screening of "UHF" and Q&A with Weird Al Yankovic, then talk about our time this weekend riding electric bikes around Bristol!
