The Champ
The guys gather together at the General’s pad with a friend of the show, Claire. She claims she is just there to sit quietly and enjoy the show, but the guys manage to get her to chime in more than she claims she intends. Lance starts the show by berating Berg and Mills for breaking spoiler protocol last week, then recaps where he was last week that caused him to miss the show. Then the guys are posed a question; what 5 things they would do if they were invisible for a day. Needless to say, this topic spiraled out of control rather quickly. Since we have already gone down the rabbit hole, we continue. The guys discuss what shitty movie that clearly doesn’t deserve it, but they want to have made. What movie do you think that the guys missed on? They end the show “recapping” what they did for Memorial Day. Give it a Listen, and enjoy.

The guys gather at Lance’s house today and discuss a very important topic. Their F*&k it list. The list of 5 celebrities that if the world conspires in their favor, and they had a chance with, while in a serious relationship, that they would get a free pass with. Needless to say, the guys all had a very difficult time narrowing their personal list down. Who is on your list? Let us know in the comment section below. Lance is leaving for a trip for the entirety of next week; this prompts him to ask the other guys the items they always forget to pack. Spurred on by a ridiculous purchase by Lance this week, the guys all chime in on what is the most expensive purchase they have made. Listen, enjoy, and let us know what you think. $300 Bag They guys get together for their weekly chat. They start off recapping the experience going to the Fathom Events playing Star Trek: the Next Generation’s classic two parter “Best of Both Worlds”. This unique setting allowed plenty of fodder for comedy gold. After a slight delay, we realize that this is our what’s happening in May show. On May 26th is the 10k Rum Run in Tualatin, running with the booze involved. How can that be anything but a good idea? There are also two comedians coming to town this month, Amy Schumer and Bill Cosby. If you need some spiritual enlightenment, the Dalai Lama will be in town on the 9th. Berg and Mills have a concert list coming to town this month for you to check out: Mumford & Sons, Primus, Young Turks, Cake, and Ozomatli. There is one day in May that you shouldn’t miss; Mother’s Day is May 12th. If you need an idea for a gift for Mom, check out the Crafty Wonderland. Mills is in town to be able experience his first Rose Festival. Instead, he would rather participate in Cosplay at Wonder NW. Finally, after getting through the cultural events going on, the guys get into the meat & potato of the happens of May, the Movie Releases. The guys are stoked for the movie releases. Cautiously Optimistic They guys got together today and starting right off ripping one another, the subject of the particular rant was online dating. They got into the good the bad and the ugly. What they like, as well as dislike about their previous experiences. Of course with a topic this broad, there was no way for the guys to stay on topic without multiple tangents along the way. What are your thoughts on the world of online dating? Let us know in the comment section below. From there the guys move onto the NBA playoffs. They revisit their preseason picks for the conference, and world titles. Finally, following in Patton Oswalt’s 8 minute improve Star Wars movie filibuster for Parks & Recreation, the guys spit ball on the fly the direct they would like the next Star Trek TV series to take. Listen, enjoy, and don’t forget to leave feedback. Riding a Moped This week we get right in it and begin a discussion on Star Trek Movies. What is each of the guy’s favorite, as well as least favorite of all the feature films. Not to mention the tangent of what is their favorite version of the Enterprise. Surprisingly, no one picked the ship from Star Trek: Enterprise. What do you guys think? Let us know in the comment section below. The conversation takes a change, as we discuss proper etiquette. But since is it FUNNY, we focus on proper etiquette at gentlemen establishments. After we finish our multiple digressions, The General poses an Absurd Argument: Kelly Kapowski vs Topanga. It wasn’t so much absurd, as it was nostalgic. With the release of Jurassic Park in 3D, it leads to the discussion of Michael Crichton’s film resume. What is each of our favorite adaptation of one of Crichton’s books? Listen and Enjoy! Checking Her Tempature This week we have our monthly what’s happening in Portland show for April. We start off with a bang and get right into it with Star Trek the Next Generation: Best of Both Worlds coming to a theater near you. If Trek isn’t your thing, there is a comedy festival occurring April 18-21st, Bridgetown Comedy Fest. Speaking of smiling, if you attend and/or participate in, the Portland Soapbox Derby and don’t have a good time, there is something it the matter with you. Do you think the guys should participate in the event? Let us know. April also brings us opening day of baseball. The guys of course make World Series projections. Lance will be heading to Stumptown Comic Fest, which leads Berg to ask an interesting question, with unlimited resources, what would your cosplay costume be? After the normal movie and concert talk, full concert list below, the guys pull out the old man card. They pose the question, what the kids of today will miss out on due to the fact they didn't grow up in the 90’s. Listen and Enjoy.

Not ones that are coming out, but ones that never were made, but should have been. After that we were going to talk about recent NFL moves, but Sean's computer stopped recording. It's all for the best, because it wasn't very funny. After the time lapse, Sean gets talked into doing a porn review. After some hemming and hawing, he double dick verifies Avengers: A Porn Parody from Vivid Superhero. We round the show out trying to decide if Star Wars is more popular than Harry Potter. Listen. Enjoy. Comment Below. And don't forget to review us on iTunes. We're Not Doing That Again Sean Wynn (Sean W), a local comic book store manager, joins us this week. Lance & Sean can’t help but bring up comics with Sean W throughout the show. We start off talking about some recent casting Hollywood has done. Now that Megan Fox has been cast as the female lead in Michael Bay’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, read April O’Neil, the guys decide to cast the rest of the movie. As the discussion moves on, the Lone Ranger and white wash casting of Johnny Depp as Tonto is flushed out. Absurd Arguments is back this week, where we argue whether you'd rather go see a Ke$ha or Tim McGraw concert and why. After a little more comic book talk, we end the show talking about Star Trek: Into the Darkness and who Benedict Cumberbatch will be playing, or at least currently rumored to be playing. Give it a listen, and let us know what you think. Sean Wynn Every first episode of the month we cover a few events in Portland that we're looking forward to. Berg & Sean scour the concert venues for a few shows they're looking forward to checking out. There is a list for tickets below. It's March, so you know what that means...St. Paddy's Day! Before your drinking gets too over the top, you can go participate in the Shamrock Run, a charity 5k. Of course there will be some partying and some shenanigans going on at Kell’s afterwards. Don’t forget that Daylight Savings is on the 10th and we will all be losing a precious hour of sleep. College basketball fans are getting excited March Madness is coming. Towards the end of the month, the Spring Beer & Wine Festival will take over the Oregon Convention Center. Of course, we can’t get together without a few random conversations and sidebars taking place. So we debate the correct way toilet paper should hang and the latest internet sensation the Harlem Shake.
