Part 2 of the Yamagato Shocker Superhero Throwdown is here!!!

Here's Part 1.

EDIT: This episode was originally hosted by YIBR, but they've recently taken down all of their old podcasts, soon to be re-uploaded. So here's the audio of this episode instead of the normal YIBR video version. *NOTE* this is the raw audio of the conversation that I provided to the YIBR gang for editing purposes, and there's about a minute and a half of dead air at the beginning. SORRY ABOUT THAT! The conversation begins at excactly 1:31.

That right there? That's 1.5 hours of superhero movie discussion. Yes, I know. It's really long. And it starts off with me ranting about Batman movies. Be forewarned. I geek out kinda hard.

But in all seriousness, I had a fantastic time recording all of the A Month of Yamagato podcasts. MEGA CRAZY HUMONGOUS THX to Beeslo, Mongo, and Link.

AudioShocker Podcast #184 - Yamagato Shocker Superhero Throwdown pt 1

AudioShocker Podcast

A Month of Yamagato concludes as Beeslo, Mongo, and Link all get in on the action!!!

It's a long-awaited superhero movie throwdown between Beeslo and Nick. First up? The X-Men movies! Nick defends X-Men Origins: Wolverine (*SINK SMASH*), while Beeslo likes First Class a lot. They both agree that Spider-Man 2 is the best of the trilogy, and Neal offers good insights on why the rejected trailer was better than the first Spider-Man. And the Superman series doesn't do much for anyone. At all.

NEXT: Listen to the Yamagato Shocker Superhero Throwdown pt 2 on YIBR, coming this weekend!!!

UPDATE: Here's Part 2!

A Month of Yamagato continues as we welcome YIBR's Mongo!!!

Crunchy Nut is the number 2 cereal in the UK and it's on Justique's forehead, Neal wants us to like Battle-swag-lactica, Mongo schools us on Swag by Elmore Leonard, Marisa Tomei vs. Alyssa Milano, Nick talks about Penitentiary and Penitentiary II, Mongo has too much Too Sweet trivia, and Neal saw Hanna.

Then it's time to journey into the world of Chuck Norris with Lone Wolf McQuade posters (one, two, three), Sidekicks, Joe Piscopo, and Mongo shares the perfect Father's Day gift.

AudioShocker Podcast #181 - Naked Celebrities

AudioShocker Podcast

A real geek podcaster joins the AudioShocker! Beelso from YIBR kicks off June's A Month Yamagato podcasting event.

The conversation starts off strong with naked celebrities (Blake Lively, Vanessa Hudgens, Olivia Wilde(?), Screech, and uhhh... Nick Marino???), the pornstar game (Luigi Smiley, Kermit Chablis, and Ron Beachwood), Movember, Michael Jordan's awful stache, the 90s were [or is it was... what's the proper grammar here?] a great time to be a sports fan, and Neal confuses Nick with Pittsburgh sports talk.

MORE: Nick wants to talk about Burt Reynolds in Stick and Heat, and Beelso educates the listeners on the William Shatner movie, Impulse.

PLUS: A superhero movie throwdown announcement!!!

Listen to Nick on the YIBR Team-Up #6 podcast!

I was honored to be a guest on this week's Yamagato Industries Business Report Team-Up #6 (long title!) podcast:

In case you don't already know, YIBR is the comics and anime podcast of TheGameHeroes.com. Hosted by Link, Mongo, and Beeslo, it's a weekly mix of current nerd news and opinions. You can connect with YIBR on their forums or on their Facebook page.

In this episode, we talk about Desperate Justice, ALF, Totall Recall #1, and tons more. If you'd rather listen to an audio-only version of the episode (with a few more awkward moments and a different opening), here ya go:

I gotta give a shout out to Colonel Panic, the artist of YIBR's title cards (kickass drawings that rep reach episode of the show). Here's the fantastic title card he did for Team-Up #6:

Thx, Panic. YOU DA MAN!!! (Panic is also the artist of the Yamagato webcomic, written by the hosts and listeners of YIBR. It's a fantastic webcomic, so check it out!)

BUT WAIT! There's more! This blog post is the perfect time to announce a special continuation of the glorious AudioShocker/YIBR crossover... June will officially be "A Month of Yamagato" on the AudioShocker Podcast!!! One-by-one, the hosts of YIBR will appear on Tuesday's podcast alongside Neal and myself. On the fourth and final Tuesday of the month, we'll wrap things up by featuring a special two-part superhero movie throwdown.

So thx again to the YIBR crew, and prepare yourself for a serious Yamagato overdose next month!
