[THE BEGINNING] Fringe
In a post-Lost world, a lot of television shows came through the lens flaired hands of J.J. Abrams on his journey to screwing up Star Trek and leaving the bones of Star Wars to bleach in the pretty, yet confusing red sand. Fringe may be the show he is lauded for the least, but is that the way it should be?
A mix between X-Files and a procedural, Fringe gave us 5 seasons… but how did it begin?
Join us as we follow the wacky antics of crazypants science that is The Beginning: Fringe

We’re going all out with full immersion experiences looking for that big check.
And who is providing the big check this week? Well, none other than two of our favorite people, of Pre-Recorded Live, it’s Matt & Becky!
If you are in the Ohio area, you should check out Mysteries Ink where the pair are part of a murder… most… foul.

We’re back!
It’s been a bit since we had a new episode for you – besides the special PAX episodes… and the Christmas Party… ok, look, even when we take a break we’re on break with mics in our hand. That said, we have returned to our regularly scheduled Something with our mostly yearly round-up of some of the stories that took the year by storm – and by storm, I mean confused your Gramma on Facebook.
Which ones are real? Which ones are fake? Which ones are a secret mindcrime built by the establishment to stop the 5g chips in your teeth?

Ok, here we go? VERIFIED
[BEST OF 2023] Elevator Pitch: Job Shows
Ending the year with our favorite episode – it was a unanimous decision. Both Rob and James get together and invent their own new television show.. where the prizes are weird and the reasons are stupid.
It is hands down our favorite from the year, so we’ll see you next week with something new – but until then, enjoy and Happy New Year!
Original Post:
The Wheel is back, and it’s got a job to do…
Ok, it doesn’t, that would be weird, it’s a Wheel. It has a job, and it does it well. We spin it, and it gives us the week’s topic. The topic though, well that’s a different job entirely. You see, if you have watched any television in the last twenty years, you have seen, at some point, a show about bakers or flower arrangers or glass blowers or taxis. Doing your boring-ass day job probably has its own channel on Pluto, so what happens when the Somethings get to make their own?
It’s a brand new episode of The Wheel – Elevator Pitch
Ok, here we g…..are you ready to face 5 other chat format podcasts on… PodWars!

This week, Hatton and Podcast Rob head to Georgia to take on “Cocaine Bear” in this episode of “Something In Review”!

[BEST OF 2023] Audience Pops w/ Tim Stevens
Back with another Best of – we brought in Something Bestie, Tim ‘Ungajje’ Stevens, to discuss some of the moments in cinema that make you stand up and clap.
It’s a great one, enjoy…
Original post:
What is a ‘pop’?
In professional wrestling terms, it’s the moment the crowd goes nuts. Maybe they’re cheering – maybe they’re booing, but there is a moment in a movie where the audience is so emotionally invested they can’t help but be there.
We’re talking about those moments.. but not alone! We are joined by long time SomethingFriend, Tim Stevens. You may know Tim from his time writing for any number of fantastic websites about the world of comics and pop culture. These days you can find him on TheSpool.net as well as The Wealth of Geeks. He’s also one bad shut yo mouth.
You ready to laugh? Ready to cheer? Ready to catch the ball to win the big game? Prepared to listen to a podcast you can’t help, but scream at?
Ok, here we OOOOoooh!

Original Post:
Mmmm Bop, crappy songs ahh doo wop, a-zig-a-zig-ahhhh
We’ve done tons of favorite things. You guys are sick of the things we like, so how about the Wheel give us a little bit of loathing, huh? Shooting the big guns on our Bottom 5 songs. And let me tell you, we could do another 5.. easy.
Join us on The Wheel: Bottom 5.

[BEST OF 2023] Worst Accents in Movies
Ach! The Somethings have done their share of voices.. well, so have actors, and in some cases, we would prefer to listen to our own. Enjoy the Somethings mocking bad movie accents in this weeks best of!
Enjoy!
Original Post:
SAY E’LLO TO OUR LIT’LE PODCAST!
And unlike the picture perfect Pacino accent that previous sentence was written in, sometimes a movie can pull you right out when someone’s accent doesn’t exactly match their character. Are they an American with a Brit twang? Are they Southern and sound like they came straight from the Civil War? Are they a Spaniard and yet somehow sound precisely like they don’t give a damn about any of the movies in this franchise?
Well, we’re about to take them to task.
Did you read that with a perfect patois? You should, as you join us on Worst Accents in Movies
O’ah kay, here we go, an’ nobody gets our lucky charms!
