Episode 64 – House of Cards

On this episode – The Somethings Go To Washington

We’ve been pretty big on House of Cards since Season 1, and now as the show ends its 4th Season we decided to discuss where and what has gone on, what we love, and what we hate… the fact is we don’t hate that much.

Frank Underwood – the government official we love to hate and love to see how he schemes through another moment is the central focus of this episode.

He may have his finger on the big red button – but does he hijack your brain?

I don’t think so.

(Note: This episode is SPOILERRIFIC)

Episode #63 – Tim Burton

Tagged ,

It’s time for the Somethings to get a little darker.. a little paler in pallette.  The boys are going semi-monochromatic and discussing everyone’s favorite Hot Topic Discount Rack Star: Tim Burton.

Whether you are a ghost with the worst pain or a childhood favorite given a facelift and creepy reimagining via Johnny Depp – we probably hit on it.

Slap on some stripes and grab your Handbook of the Recently Deceased..

♫ What’s This! What’s This!
There’s babbling everywhere!
What’s this!
The Something’s just don’t care… ♫

Episode 62 – Deadpool

Tagged , , ,

It is no surprise to anyone that the Somethings like comic things.  Hell, they’ve done like 5 episodes about them already… so when the big mill started about Deadpool, it was a foregone conclusion that they were going to see it. So what did they think of the Merc With A Mouth?

..they obviously left nerd stains all over the seat in front of them..

Who said that?  Anyway, breaking box office records and proving we DO need another hero.

..two podcasters enter, one podcaster leave..

No, seriously who keeps doing that!? Well, anyway, take a listen and find out what the boys think!

..ok, here we go!

THAT’S MY LINE!

Episode 61 – The 2015 Snopes List

Tagged ,

NoteIf you share this post, Mark Zuckerberg will bake you a turkey dinner.

Every day of every social media person’s life, you are hit with a thousand different pictures, memes, captions, and at least half of them are filled with bad information.  Well, the Somethings are going to inform you of a little website called SnopesNow, what this site does is… I know.. it’s crazy.. it debunks internet urban legends.

Every year they also do their best to tell you what the most popular b.s. was from the prior year.  So we’re going down the list and talking a little bit of the internet urban legends of 2015.  We go from Something to Serious to Seriously Creepy and back to Something.. this is a long strange journey. Buckle up.

Episode 60 – The Force Awakens

Tagged , , , ,

A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away… two guys were the last ones to get on a certain train.  A train featuring a giant star killing planet and a dude who sky walks and a couple of kids with a bunch of superpowers… yes, that’s right… the Somethings are going to face off against Xur and the Koda– no? Oh. Star Wars.. right.. nevermind.

After the much to do about the Disney Abrams Lucas Monster has come to life, join the Somethings as we discuss those pesky mitochlorians (I’ve just been informed by Podcast Rob that it is spelled midi-chlorians.  I don’t feel bad not knowing that.)

Ok, here we go!

Episode 59 – Doctor Who / Sherlock Christmas Specials

Happy Something Year!

We’re back with our first show of 2016, and the boys are bringing a couple fantastic guests to sit and talk about the wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey holiday spirit on Baker Street… that’s right, we’re talking some BBC’ness big numbers shows of Doctor Who and Sherlock – but specifically this year’s big Christmas / New Years episodes.

Along the way we found two wonderful women floating about in the aether of the internet who know a thing or two about a thing or two.  Meredith Placko (@mplacko), writer at GEEK.COM, and PopCornTalk’s Marvel Movie News.  And sitting in studio (Not our studio.. but *A* studio) with Meredith is Emma Fyffe (@emmafyffe). You might know Emma from PopcornTalkAfterBuzzTV, and her Sailor Moon Podcast, Love & Justice. Find all her goings on at her Tumblr.

Ok – see, and this is why we don’t have guests with pedigrees.. do you know how long it took me to get all that linkage in.  That’s it. No more really awesome guests. It’s like this is becoming work….

But back to the episode – WHAT DID THE BOYS THINK? WHAT DID THE GIRLS THINK? WHAT DID YOU THINK?

Episode 58 – Jessica Jones

Tagged , , , , ,

Put on your biggest smile, and join us once again as the Somethings delve into binge watching Netflix’s newest Marvel: Jessica Jones.  What started as a noir take on the superhero world has taken television by storm as a story of the seedier, darker, and downright creepier parts of what great power means when you have little responsibility.

Joining us is honorary Something, friend, and comic book genius – @Ungajje himself: Tim Stevens.

Couple things to note – this show is long. We love talking with Tim, so even when we say ‘lets wrap it up.. there’s another 2 hours.’  Also, this show is SPOILERIFFIC.  If you are 3 episodes in.. don’t listen.  Go watch them. Then listen.

SWEET CHRISTMAS, Here we go!

Step one – take a camera

Step two – strange and horrible things happen to you

Step three – PROFIT!

The Something’s heading off with nothing but their wits and a camera, with an episode all about Found Footage/Shaky Cam movies.  Whether it is a horrible creature tromping through the woods, or an urban legend coming to life in the woods, or a … why are all of these things in the woods?

Anyway – monsters, powers, mayhem galore on the just after Thanksgiving edition of the SomethingSomethingCast.

Note – We would like to thank Olivia Hennis of The Papercuts Podcast for her help with this episode. (And her show’s pretty rockin if you love young adult novels & films)

Episode 56 – The Time Travelling Episode

You don’t need money…
We don’t take fame…

That’s a lie – we’ll take fame. We’ll take fame anywhere it asks us to.  It’s gonna live forever.  it’s gonna learn how to fly!

Sorry, already digressing.  As I was saying – the power of love is a curious thing.. but more curious is the hours and hours we have spent watching time travel flicks. Movies about people moving about in time with usually disastrous results in the first act.  There are tons of tropes, tons of gimmicks, tons of good and bad flicks that have used traveling through time as their crutch.  Hatton & Rob are hopping in their Magic School Bus and going through their favorites.

(They also kill Hitler.)

Episode 55 – Horror Villain Battle Royale

some..some..some…  thing..thing..thing…

We would like to play a game… and it’s BATTLE ROYAL: HORROR EDITION!  We’ve discussed our favorite creature features and villains in the past, but given it is a time for scary, it is time to look with a chainsaw sharp eye… if that was a thing.. and look at some of the greatest villains of movie-dom and pit them against each other in a discussion about who would stand tall at the end.  Whether you are sleeping on Elm St. or messing with a Puzzle Box, there is always a vacancy when it comes to Halloween.

(See what I did there?  Yeah, I’m kind of impressed with myself, too.)

Ok ScarySomethings… here we ghoul!
