102 – Starchaser: The Legend of Orin
After 3 big episodes in a row, the boys are hanging back for a little and catching their breath.
What that means is you get to dive into one from the secret archives of the Somethings, where you get all new material, we did the same amount of work, but we did it before now! It’s amazing. It’s like magic.
I’ll tell you that the above sentence has more magic in it than this movie.
There are a lot of classic Star Wars rips, but Starchaser might be the most forgotten.. not because it is obscure or bad or an obvious cash-in… it’s because it is all three.
We promise, you don’t need to see the movie to enjoy this episode. Hell, you’ll likely enjoy the movie more if you don’t watch it.
Ready?
Ok, here we go!
Episode 101 – Ralph Garman
So after putting the Patreon on pause.
After our Anniversary.
After our 100th Episode.
How could we put icing on that cake?
Oh, we got ourselves a badass guest to hangout with for a little while. Who, you may ask? Why Ralph Garman, co-host of the Hollywood Babble-On with Kevin Smith, actor in a lot of stuff you’ve seen, as well as the host of one of our personal favorite shows, The Joe Schmo Show!
So settle in and enjoy the conversation, and do yourself a favor and follow @RalphGarman on Twitter and Instagram to continue following his adventures and all of the big life changes in store for him now that we’ve hijacked his brain. And be sure to look out for him on Seth MacFarlane’s new sci-fi show, The Orville.
Ok, here we go!
Episode 100 Party!
NOTE: Please forgive the mistake in this episode… I think it makes it funnier, but I forgot to add in a critical sound-effect. It’s always something, am I right?
This is it! We did it!
So what do we do.. we throw a party with two friends from the Inside Joke Outside Voice Network.
We got Rich from Married Marks and Eric from Two-Legged Tie and we just hang out and argue a bit.
What would you expect from us, really?
From ice cream flavors to top tv shows. It really is a party with a bunch of people who like to talk to each other.
Am I making you chomp at the bit for more? Oh, you better be… because here we go!
Episode 99 – Year Four, Expanded Universes
Ok here we go… and go.. and go… and we are celebrating our Year 4.
Where in years gone by we have found our way to the fabulous Wildpig Comics, this year there just wasn’t a lot to discuss when it came to the comic universes.. so we decided to have an episode where we create our own.
So we got Bill Ellis, manager of Wildpig and longtime friend of the show and Jay Sandlin, new friend of the show and writer of Outbreak Mutiny, as well as a regular contributor to Buzzfeed! I’m also leaving a link here to this article, but you might want to wait til the end of the episode to click on it… trust us.
Let me (Hatton here) take a quick moment to say a thank you to every one of you that has listened over the years and has gotten us here. It is because of you folks that we do it and thanks for being there. As we crest our fourth year and our next episode is that big ol’ triple digit, it is stereotypical, but totally true, that without you, there would be no us. So thanks everyone.
Enough prattling – let’s get on with the show.
Ok, here we go!
Episode 98 – Movie Confessions
Look, 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
And 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)
We 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!
It’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
♫ 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
Hey 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!
