GEA - ATNY 54: Valley Girl

Nicolas Cage has some very specific chest hair

Show Notes This time in A Theater Near You, the team tackles Valley Girl for the letter V. This was Paul’s pick, and he regretted it almost immediately because it’s… not good. But apparently the musical remake is? What’s going on with Cage’s weird chest hair? Why was he hiding in the bathroom listening to people pee? Why did any of this happen?

Kuros comes to the Alphabet Soup-er Series

Show Notes

GEA - SAG Episode 574: I Take No Pleasure

Dan and Kris dive back into the SAG BAG

Show Notes

On this week’s podcast, Dan and Kris open the SAG BAG to answer your burning questions. Once again, many had very little to do with video games, and a lot to do with Dan’s sex life. Great job, everyone!
In Week Old News, we discover a 1981 reference in Donkey Kong Bananza, Chuck E. Cheese goes after adults, and OneXSugar is super weird. Oh, and Microsoft laid off a metric ton of people even though their profits were doing just fine. Sigh. Then, in The Checkpoint, well, nothing. They didn’t do the checkpoint because they spent a few hours answering the SAG BAG.
Enjoy!

GEA - ATNY 53: Unstoppable

Runaway train, never coming back

Show Notes This time in A Theater Near You, the team tackles Unstoppable for the letter U. Why? Because Kris has excellent taste in movies, that’s why! It’s a movie about Denzel Washington and Chris Pine trying to stop a runaway train while Rosario Dawson looks on from a distance, and it’s all VERY serious. There was also a lot of talk about muppets. Enjoy! PS. We did something different with Sean’s audio. It did NOT work. We’re sorry.
