Episode 111: Jurassic Park, Green Day, and our heroes' pasts


This week's episode of the Chuck and Brad podcast finds Chuck and Brad joined by local roustabout Mat Fairchild. The three open the conversation by discussion past incidents of "pantsing," both as pantsers and pantsees. Chuck gives a Senior Discount update and a Web Coulier, listed below. After Brad waxes enthusiastic about the Thursday Next books by Jasper Fforde, the boys discuss creative ventures in various stages of development.
Chuck brings some news driplets to the table - Comic Book Men, the Bad Boys 3 announcement, and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. After that, the meat of the podcast has teeth sunken into it [Editor: There has to be a better way to word that, you idiots.] They discuss a recent trip to see Jurassic Park in 3-D IMAX. Much merriment is made at Brad's expense. Once the raptor calls die down, Chuck and Brad talk about their recent experiences involving Green Day - seeing the band perform live in Providence and watching the recent Cuatro! documentary from the band.
Chuck then brags about some videogame accomplishments that are literally so astounding they can not be put to print. He then talks about the recent movie Spring Breakers and gives his thoughts on the film. All three of the hosts this week talk about their first encounters with illicit substances, then the conversation turns back to popular culture, as Chuck and Brad talk about the Mick Foley and CM Punk DVD's. The conversation ends with an in-depth discussion of the plotline of X-Men: Days Of Future Past, the upcoming X-Men movie.

Episode 109: Live Events: Nick Offerman, Tenacious D Acoustic, Demetri Martin, Stephen Lynch


Chuck and Brad open this episode by discussing some of the below Web Couliers and their excitement about upcoming projects. They move from there to some quick movie reviews, some of which they actually watched separately. After that, Chuck issues a rare statement of regret involving Episode 108: The Chuck Staton Rejection Trials.
The meat of the podcast, however, is recaps of specific life events the boyz attended over the past six weeks or so. They saw the Nick Offerman "American Swine" tour and talk about that experience. After that is a very brief discussion about the Tenacious D acoustic show at Lupo's in Providence, and how one fan can impact other fans at a concert. A trip to Northampton to see stand-up from Demetri Martin resulted in the fun, positive experience we've come to expect. They also attended an excellent Stephen Lynch concert in Boston and dealt with some post-show odd moments. Brad went with a non-Chuck-based friend to see the Young@Heart chorus in Worcester as well, and part one of this two-part podcast closes there.

Episode 107: Chuck and Brad's Stories From Strip Clubs


After some typical 100% clever back and forth, the boyz broach the heart of this week's podcast: Chuck's recent trip to a gentleman's club in Providence - and I assure you, he was FAR from the gentlest man there.

Once they finish Chuck's harrowing tale of loss and heartache, they talk about Brad's past trips to strip clubs, which segues into a discussion about the service industry, fakeness, and attitudes toward strip clubs going forward.
