AudioShocker Podcast #210 - Manifeast Destiny

AudioShocker Podcast

What is American cuisine? Neal wants know, so Justique and Nick try to help him figure it out.

Is it a pretzel burger?

Or maybe s'mores pizza?

After that, we serve up more puppet conversation as Justique and Nick saw The Muppets, and Neal saw Jeff Dunham's Very Special Christmas Special. And finally, after the end theme, Nick explains why he's taking his Nik Furious music off of iTunes, Amazon, and other major music sales websites.

AudioShocker Podcast #209 - Roving Gang

AudioShocker Podcast

Justique and Nick watched tons of Haruhi Suzumiya anime (Season 1, Season 2, and the movie) over the weekend. Unfortunately, Neal hates new anime.

Nick thinks Neal is now officially a weird (and/or creepy) uncle, but Neal thinks he's gonna be the "cool" uncle (if there even is such a thing).

Then a conversation about PBS donation drives leads to a rant about children's entertainment. And... is life more rigorous for kids now than it was before?

Finally, after the end theme, Neal confesses his love for romantic comedies.

Note from Nick: BUT WAIT... THERE'S MORE! The reason today's episode is going live a few hours late is because I was posting the latest release from the Unlicensed Attorneys at Law, my rap group. It's called the The Bacon and Eggs EP, and you can find it on SoundCloud, Bandcamp, PureVolume, YouTube, and the Unlicensed Attorneys website. It's three free songs with some extremely offensive NSFW work rhymes. Basically, it's not for everybody. But if you enjoy raunchy humor, then you'll dig the Attorneys.

AudioShocker Podcast #208 - Puppets vs. Zombies

AudioShocker Podcast

Nick loves the Warren the Ape show (a puppet-filled reality TV satire):

But Neal hates puppets. And Nick wants to understand why.

Then we talk about Rodney Dangerfield, from his Sum 41 music video cameo to the oft-forgotten My 5 Wives.

Nick watched the documentary Wham! Bam! Islam!, detailing the production and licensing of THE 99 (the superheroes, not the protest movement).

That leads into a licensing discussion, spinning off into a talk about Neal's short attention span for media and why he prefers TV over movies.

Also, Nick watched The Walking Dead: Season One and liked it. But Neal hates zombies.

AudioShocker Podcast #207 - Comedy Intensive

AudioShocker Podcast

Nick watched the new Sex Ed Couples Therapy sketch from last weekend's SNL and he loved it. Neal... not so much.

That leads into an intense Saturday Night Live discussion, spinning off into other comedy, including Elvira: Mistress of the Dark (Neal's favorite movie):

...AND SuperTwins, a new superhero comedy web series that Neal and Nick learned about at NYCC 2011:

ALSO: An Ox's Tale: The John Entwistle Story and other The Who documentaries.

AudioShocker Podcast #206 - Super H8rs

AudioShocker Podcast

FIRST: Nick thinks Thanksgiving is a horrible holiday and he's worried that Neal is becoming the 1%.

THEN: Neal has a dilema: should he stop taking money from his 'rents?

PLUS: Nick disliked Super 8 for a number of reasons and he explains them all.

ALSO: GHOST IN THE MACHINE! Destruct-O-Tron (from Super Haters) has started a Twitter account -- @DestructOTron -- WTF?

AND: What is a précis?

AudioShocker Podcast #205 - Fundamentally Filthy

AudioShocker Podcast

Neal couldn't take a shower this morning... and that made him cranky.

Above is the video I said I'd link to in the show notes.

Wake up early and go hard.

CORRECTION: Ooops! I forgot to link to Super Haters #300 when I first posted this.

AudioShocker Podcast #204 - Strombolis vs. Calzones

AudioShocker Podcast

Neal wants to know why white people love Saag Paneer, Nick thinks Pittsburgh Italian food sucks, and he made a video about Herman Cain and pizza:

Occupy iTunes, Neal attended the Silicon Alley Talent Fair, he has stinky farts, and Nick watched Winnebago Man:

Justique watched Hellevator, and Nick misses good action comedies.

AudioShocker Podcast #203 - Any Which Way But Neal

AudioShocker Podcast

Nick's pasta, Amazon's design, flashing, and Neal's been watching Spy on Hulu Plus.

Nick watched the arm wrestling documentary Pulling John based on a recommendation by Andrew Kilian. It was awesome.

PLUS: Phonocasting vs. FM radio, and names that begin with N.

AudioShocker Podcast #202 - Hot Toddy Taint

AudioShocker Podcast

We start with a completely fictional recap of #201. Then we talk Halloween costumes! Justique was a baroque hottie, Nick was modern art:

Nick had a very Carl Weathers weekend. Plus, he watched Jean-Claude Van Damme in Assassination Games. Justique's been watching a lot of Shin Chan. Neal doesn't like Prime Suspect. And he's looking for boots... fashion boots.

And... Neal went on a date! And talked shit on Occupy Wall Street.
