[The Something Contest] Wave 2 Here!
Welcome to the SomethingSomethingContest.. I’m James Hatton with… … ..oh, I’m sitting alone.
Right, so here’s the rules. Take this picture that relates to our new episode and caption the hell out of it. If you want to download it and repost it with captions, that’s fine – or if you just want to add a thingy in the comments. Whatever you want. It’s your show baby. This will go on until 04/24, when the boys are back in studio. Ok, here we go….
Episode 40 – Epic Rap Battles
As nerdy types, we’ve all kind of thought to ourselves ‘So, who would win.. Hulk or Superman’ or ‘Iron Man vs. Everyone on the Titanic’ – well, a small team headed off by two massively talented rappers have taken the youtubes by storm by pitting famous characters and people from all throughout time and space against each other. I was going to try and put a rhymey rappy introduction to this week’s episode to keep it thematic, but seriously, it would have been horrible and you would have made fun of me for it.. and you all do that enough, so just imagine this all rhymes. Orange.
And if you want to listen to all the Epic Rap Battles – find them HERE!

The troupe from the Firefly Class Serenity. So join us won’t you as we take a trip to the back rim and find out what we love about the lil’ western out in space that nobody thought could do a gorram thing.

Episode 37 – Epic Fantasy
The two men, armed with their wits, a giant sword, a couple of shields, a nearly dead horse, and on they went to the mysterious fantastical land of magic and creatures that could tear them asunder without even blinking. Yet, here they go… the Somethings are taking a journey into the land of fantasy. They will climb grand mountains to deposit jewelry, they’ll go to school to face he who probably shouldn’t be mentioned. They’ll rip a sword out of a rock in the hopes to ascend to royalty.
It’s time for the Somethings to be what they haven’t been before… Fantastic.

Episode 36 – The Hatton Episode.. no, really.
This episode started as was planned. The Somethings had a list, they were ready to riff on some stuff they knew about.. and lo and behold it all changed in one fail swoop. One of the Somethings decided that he should blindside the other Something into an entire episode about .. well .. one of the Somethings. Apparently, a webcomic’s 10 year anniversary was enough of a reason to go all James Lipton on what should have been a podcast about dragons. FINE. THANK YOU. I GUESS… Geez.
Anyway – yes, this podcast focuses mostly on the life and times of one James Hatton, webcomic creator, and all around nifty guy. You like dots? This episode has TONS of em’.
…rassum frassum good friends don’t nice things …
Episode 35 – Movie Soundtracks
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Welcome to the first episode of the New Year with the Somethings! Sometimes what makes or breaks a great movie is a great soundtrack. If you were to film your grand fantasy epic and not call on the sweet sound of Tangerine Dream, we know your movie will fail. So are going to talk about some of the great movies that we love specifically because you can listen to one of the songs and you are immediately transported back to the world created. I have very little funny to say here, honestly.. so instead I’ll remind you guys that we need you guys to submit some of your topics over to our Facebook page and email so we can keep stealing your ideas! (I kid)
Ok, 2015… here we go!
Episode 34 – Christmas-ish Movies
If feels like forever since the boys came at you with a new episode, I bet. Well it’s been a few weeks, definitely… but now we’re back just in time to drink some Nog and sit around the warm glow of the television with some of our favorite Holiday’ish flicks. Some of these movies are directly related to a holiday, but others insinuate it. These are some of the best Christmas(y) sort of films we could come up with – or at least the ones we like.
Also, from James and Rob to all of you – have a safe and happy holiday and we look forward to more Something’ing in 2015!
Episode 33 – Boardgames!
It’s a race, it’s a chase, hurry up and feed your face!
Ok, so that’s the best I can do to tie this episode to Thanksgiving. The Somethings are coming to you with another nerd passion that has in recent years entered a golden age, board games! Some folks stopped playing games when they were little kids, but guess what, those people are boring. We’ve been rolling dice for a long time and we want to talk about some of our favorite old games, new games, and the universe of boardgaming that is close to our hearts. So grab your Meeple, you’ll Boggle at the Monopoly we have! You Catan’t miss it!
Throughout the show we make mention of friends of the show, Quixotic Games and we wanted to point out their games in case you want to check them out:
- Andrew Parks’ Canterbury
- WizKids D&D Attack Wing: Starter Set
From the Somethings to all of you – Happy Thanksgiving!
Episode 32 – Cancelled Too Soon
So there you are, you are watching your favorite show, and the cliffhanger was SO GOOD! I mean, how is he going to escape from that thingy?! Is she REALLY having a baby?! What’s happened to the President?! IS THAT ALIENS!? Seriously, we have watched tons of shows, where sometime in May, we’re asking those questions.. and then September hits and.. ..nothing.. nada… absolutely nothing.
Why? Because television producers HATE you and want to see you cry on the internet. The Somethings have collected your tears, and now we’re ready to share them with the world as we talk about shows that were taken from us before their time was up.
Let’s talk cancelled television – Ok, here we go!
