Greetings all, and welcome to this universe a long, long time ago in a galaxy far away! This is the first of a 2.5 part series based on the Star Wars universe. This podcast will cover the terrible Star Wars episodes (i.e. The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, Revenge of the Sith). Heads up: we went into this really trying to look for the silver linings of these films since they are so universally loathed. I regret to inform you that we didn’t find any.

Episode 9: The Matrix and The AniMatrix

The Matrix

 

Hey, everyone! Join us this week as we take the red pill to fall down the rabbit hole and see how far it goes. We discuss board games, Fallout 4, regional sayings, and really break down what a monster-massive movie The Matrix was when it was released.  We will see if it still holds up today, and also discuss whether or not the AniMatrix was a good addition to the Matrix universe or just needless fluff. So swallow that red pill, Coppertop, and follow the white rabbit cause we ain’t in Kansas anymore!

Episode 8 Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

Don’t listen to the drunken ramblings of the two co-hosts who claim that this is episode 9m because it is clearly episode 8. There was some confusion on our end and so this happened.

We are starting a new shift in the way we present episodes. We are breaking away from the two subjects-per-episode format and will now be focusing on one subject at a time.

In this episode we get down and dirty with one of the greatest 2D platformers of all time and find out why this game coined the term “Metroidvania.” It’s a marvelous marriage of platformer, RPG, and exploration. Ryan also discovers that this game, much like a transformer, has more than meets the eye.

Episode 6: Megaman3 & Metal Gear Solid

Episode 6 has been released upon the masses! In this episode we spend a lot of time talking about Metal Gear Solid (and wishing we could talk about it even more) and then quickly running through Megaman 3. The main thing we need to stress here is that we just wish we had more time to talk about Metal Gear Solid…

Episode 5: Drive & The Incredibles

In this episode we discuss our previous careers in the film/entertainment business (NOT that glamorous) and we talk about whether or not Ryan Gosling has Autism, Asperger’s, or just Bad Assness. We also talk about why “The Incredibles” is the greatest Fantastic Four movie ever made and pretty much one of the greatest superhero films, in general. In addition, this episode includes some general ramblings about things we pretend to know a lot more about than we actually do.

Episode 4: The Walking Dead & Halo 1

Greetings, faithful listeners – all 4 of you! This episode is the first of the video games list where Kyle complains about “The Walking Dead” and Ryan laments about “Halo 1.” This episode really starts to get into what we like and don’t like in our different choices of entertainment and why we feel the way we do about certain aspects of media. It should also go without saying, but HEAVY SPOILER WARNINGS!

Episode 3: Fifth favorite movies, Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang & Pan’s Labyrinth

So here is the first “official” episode based on our top five favorite movies (previously discussed). For this series we are starting at the bottom of our respective lists, so these are the fifth ranked movies from both of us. Ryan selected “Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang” and Kyle selected “Pan’s Labyrinth”. We discuss both of these films in detail and try to explain what we liked and didn’t like, while trying to figure out why they made it to our list of favorites. It should be stated here as well: HEAVY SPOILERS! We also ramble about unrelated things (probably too much), which will most likely become a theme for this podcast. There is some bonus discussion about our favorite horror movies since Halloween is approaching.

 

 

Episode 2 The List – Part 2: The Movies

expereince grind logo HD v2

 

Here is the continuation of episode one where we discuss our favorite movies and try in vain to form them into some sort of list. We also ramble on about each movie for a bit and try not to get too in depth, We do follow a couple of different tangents that don’t really have anything to do with the list; I’m not saying alcohol was a factor in that but I’m not saying it wasn’t either.

For the sake of suspense, it should be mentioned that the entire list of favorite movies is not represented here. Neither of us knew the other’s choices before this was recorded, so we want you to listen to the podcast and discover for yourself along with us!

 

On the next episode, we will start with discussing our #5 movie choices. Those will be relevant here, so take notes and pay attention!

Hello, internet people! I present to you Episode One, where we discuss our personal top 5 favorite video games and a lot of other unrelated things. We have a tendency to ramble and digress onto tangents sometimes, so stick around and after listening, reach out to us to let us know what games or movies you want us to experience.
