It’s day eight of our 25 Days of Christmas extravaganza! Today we discuss how disgusting licorice-flavored booze is, where it spawns from and what that town’s name actually means. And of course, we grab another pair of bottles down from our tree and deploy another day’s worth of our new Xmas carol.
From the promising start, The Walking Dead tripped and fell it’s way towards a disappointing first half of season six. WTF is the problem? Can they recover? Should we care any more? All these questions and more are pondered by Jim and A.Ron with our fellow fans. Regardless of where we’re at now, we WILL be back for the back half of season six, rain or shine, and hopefully you’ll be there with us.
You know, I can’t really adequately sum up in this one little text box how we all feel about this season of The Leftovers, and at this point, you already know if you’re going to listen or not, yeah? You got two hours of hardcore The Leftovers talk coming your way from two dudes who are saying this is the best season of television they’ve ever personally ever seen, so how about we cut to the chase and just push “play?”

It’s day seven of our Days of Christmas extravaganza! We talk about bad drinking experiences, share some fan artwork and cool stuff, and A.Ron shows how family Christmas pictures can go bad at the claws of a crazed feline. And of course, we grab another pair of bottles down from our tree and deploy another day’s worth of our new Xmas carol.
Andrew “The Commissioner” Mount “strikes” again from his hidden rebel base, this time forcing us to watch Episode V of the Star Wars saga, “The Empire Strikes Back.” Which, incidentally, depending on the age of the A.Ron you ask, is either his favoritist movie of all time, or top three. Either way, it’s a treat. Once again, Jim and I try to sort through our childhood and adult memories of this holiest of trilogies to give it the treatment it deserves. If you missed in the first time, or would like to listen again, you can check out our coverage of A New Hope, also brought to you by The Commish.
Death Proof is supposed to be so bad it’s good — but does it actually achieve the “good” part? This week, Eric and Levi discuss one of Tarantino’s most divisive films, with a little help from their friend from Germany. The talk explores which characters are likable, the merits of practical effects, and the actors that make Tarantino sing. Join us next week for Inglourious Basterds.

Whooo! We get our weekend started off RIGHT by power slamming 3 Days of Christmas, which of course means three grabs of booze of the old tree. This led to a memorable Lunch with Jim and A.Ron, which we recorded immediately after. Well, I don’t think I’m going to remember a bit of it, but you know, it’s recorded, so there’s that. 3 days, 3 drinks, 3 new versus of our song, and we’ll see you Monday as we resume our countdown to Xmas!
A.Ron and Cecily unpack the shocking revelation from this week’s American Horror Story: Hotel, “The Ten Commandments Killer”; Cecily doesn’t actually know the Ten Commandments! All kidding aside, other than the fact that we’ve seen this revelation coming, it was a perfectly fine episode of American Horror Story. Although I guess it does kind of re-contextualize Sally. And the “adultery” couple switching hotels kinda came out of no where. Never fear, we’re not above resorting to multi-verse theory to explain away any troublesome retconning or rewriting Murphy has to do to bring this beast on final approach and landing. All that, our ongoing love fest for Dennis O’Hare, and a pretty healthy mailbag, and lots of opinionated opinions coming your way!

Thanks Dr. Ken for the inspiring suggestion to do our 3 Days of Christmas drinks on Friday just before LWJ&A, because it was a banging idea. This is the result. We discuss Jim’s very A.Ron Thanksgiving, Salty JW’s in our mail bag, rebound headaches, Stephen King’s deep and abiding fear of motor vehicles, Drew Carey and Bob Barker, and honestly God only knows what. We’ll be back for more of the same next Friday, so have your popcorn ready.
