Episode 98 – Movie Confessions
Tagged 2017, MoviesLook, we all have blindspots. Maybe it’s that you really weren’t a fan of Star Wars. Maybe it’s that you think the ending of Lost is really good. These are things that sometimes you hold as a badge that you have not done something the rest of the world has.. but other times, you are aware it is a blip that you missed and you just avoid conversations around it.
So Rob & Hatton are admitting some of the big nerd movies that they’ve missed – and they ask for forgiveness.
They would forgive you ….
…unless it was about that Lost thing.
Ok, here we go!
Episode 97 – The SomethingSomethingCast Retrospective
Tagged 2017, retro, ReviewAnd now for something a little different… and by different, we mean the same.. sort of.
The boys have been doing the show for just about 4 years, so why not take a look back with us. Hatton and Rob talk about how it began, and some of the adventures on the way.
And on that note, we just want to thank you for being with us on this adventure. Rob and I can’t tell you enough how it is you guys who have made this show what it is and drives it forward – so we look forward to our 4th Wild Pig Party as well as everything that is to come. Thanks.
And now, you know what happens next.
Ok, here we go!
Episode 96 – Theme Song Challenge (w/ Kyle from This Is Important)
Tagged 2017, guests, Music, retro, TVWe all like ourselves a little bit of television.
We also like ourselves the earworms that lodge into your head for 30 minutes and beyond. So Hatton’s taken a few. Rob’s taken a few. And they are going head to head to find out who has the best line-up.
And a battle as important as this needs an important guest. So we got our friend and co-host of ‘THIS IS IMPORTANT‘, Kyle!
If you are looking to find other interesting and random things match up, be sure to check-out Steve & Kyle’s show, and get updates on their Twitter
For now though – find out who won the THEME MUSIC CHALLENGE!
Episode 95 – Spin The Wheel: Taglines!
Tagged 2017, Movies, The WheelIt’s time again for everybody’s favorite SomethingGimmick! THE WHEEL OF THINGS!
The last time, the Somethings talked on about Dragonlance. This time it’s a contest episode.
We’ve done movie posters before, but what about that one little sentence that tries to drag you into the flick?
He was a flint. She was a steel. Sparks fly when they meet.
So can we figure out movies based on those short snippits? Oh, there’s only one way to find out!
Ok, here we go!
Episode 94 – Highlander
Tagged 2017, Movies, retro♫ Here we are… born to cast pods… ♫
That’s right, it’s time for one of those shows that was inevitable. It’s Clan Hatton & Clan McRob as we talk about one of the most long-legged, long-lived, fantasy… sci-fi *sigh* series that defined many a’geek.
It’s Highlander time!
So grab your katana and beware the planet Zeist.. the boys are Gathering.
And if you worry about anything.. just realize.. it’s a kind of magic!

Episode 93 – Buddy Flicks
Tagged 2017, MoviesHey thanks for understanding the lateness. LET US NEVER DISCUSS IT AGAIN!
When a movie starts, ‘Two cops with nothing left to lose’ or ‘Two best friends on a mission’ or ‘An unlikely duo of…’
Well, that’s a buddy flick and it’s a sub-genre unto itself. Hell, this show is pretty much a buddy flick turned audio.
So join a hard-nosed cop on a mission, and an unlikely best friend with nothing left to lose as Podcast Rob and Hatton take a cross country trip as fast as they can through the PodscapeVerse. Party time, excellent!

Episode 92 – The Last Jedi Trailer
Tagged 2017, Movies, SciFi, star warsA long time ago… but lesser long ago than it was before, but more recent than it was when it started.. or…
Look, there’s a new Star Wars thing and we talk about it!
Breaking from our usual ‘movie’ tradition – we’re going the super internet geek route and taking a trailer down. What’s to come? What does it reveal? What DOESN’T reveal, and what do we see as the future of the franchise.
That’s all coming up on this week’s SomethingSomethingcast…
Note – This week’s closing song is: Pannonia Allstars Ska Orchestra – Star Wars – Imperial Reggae
Ok, here we go!
Episode 91 – MST3k
Tagged 2017, Movies, netflix, retro, SciFi, TV♫ In the not too distant future…
On Thursday on Netflix…
The Mads are at it again! This time, they’ve taken the Somethings hostage and before they can be set free they have to review their favorite episodes of the B-Movie-Riffathon of MST3k!
Ok, so there are no Mad Scientists. There’s no SOL. There’s simply an episode of your favorite podcast. That doesn’t mean it isn’t a topic after their own heart, and with the new season coming out Thursday on Netflix, no better time to talk about it!
So repeat to yourself it’s just a show, and you should really just relax… unless you listen to us in your car. Then don’t relax, that would be horrible.
Episode 90 – Iron Fist
Tagged 2017, Comic Book, guests, MCU, netflix, TVAs has become a tradition of the Somethingcast, we watch a lot of Netflix.
That’s not the tradition.. it’s a fact.. but it isn’t the tradition I’m speaking of. I’m talking about when a new Marvel show appears on our queue, we call on the one and only @Ungajje himself, Tim Stevens. If you aren’t aware of Tim’s work at Marvel.com, just go.. we’ll wait.
But for a show like Iron Fist where there is so much to unpack, we needed someone to balance out our chi when it came to the martial arts featured in the show, so we also called in @KungFuDriveIn, himself, Jeof Vita. If you aren’t aware of Jeof’s podcast, Kung-Fu Drive-In, just go.. we’ll wait.
The four of us have been chosen to Defend you from what is to come next… unless you already watched Iron Fist. Then you’re beyond our help.
So spoilers abound, but no matter what… ok, here we go!
Episode 89 – Voltron w/ Afterbuzz TV
Tagged 2017, animation, guests, netflix, TVFive creatures of great power, united for a common goal.
I, of course, am talking about the folks over at AfterbuzzTV.
The Somethings are joined by the whole of the giant robot forming cast of their review and report show for Voltron: Legendary Defender. We have Katie Cullen, Mark Donica, Megan Salinas, Somethingcast old friends Emma Fyffe, and via chatroom Alexis Torres.
It is a loud and raucous affair, just how we like it.
So everybody, get ready!
FORM FEET AND LEGS!
FORM ARMS AND BODY!
AND I’LL FORM…. THE… Uhm… ….the… somehing.. ..you know.. the .. top part thinky thingy.
