Breaking Bad News – Tuesday 07/26/11 Edition

If you’re looking for it, we posted our cast fairly early yesterday evening.  Otherwise, it’s going to be a  busy day for me and an apparently light day of Breaking Bad news, so let’s get right to it. John Crook from Zap2It talks with Aaron Paul about an indy film he just finished up.  “Just…

Breaking Good - 402 – Thirty Eight Snub

First up, I challenge some of Jim’s takes from last week, we touch on a cranky dude from Seattle’s complete failure to get the point of Breaking Bad. We recap the show, and considering the relative health of Jesse’s lifestyle, how Walt’s gangster side is being figuratively and literally knocked down a peg, Hank’s mancrush on his PT, Skyler’s new career in hostile takeovers, Victor’s replacement, and Mike’s apparent lack of attention to detail.

Jim’s Instant Take – “Thirty Eight Snub” – 402

“Thirty-Eight Snub” definitely felt like a bridge episode. All of the storylines are sitting on super-volcanoes, just waiting to erupt, with devastating side-effects for everyone. Walt has to be ultra-paranoid right now. Gus obviously has his house on LOCK DOWN. Jesse and Walt aren’t getting near him at this point. I don’t believe for a…

Blue Yonder

Blue Yonder - Hyperbowl – Episode 73

Busy week for A.Ron and Jim.  A.Ron breaks down his various trials and tribulations including a Jim Jones mindfuck, a breakup, getting his PANFI on with his boy, and golfing in Satan’s Asshole.  We also launched a very successful podcast on Breaking Bad, and were interviewed on The Amazingly Pulp SHOOOOOOOWWWWWW!! We bring the listeners up do date with some follow up to the male privelidge aspect of our cast with Madbrew last week.  I don’t know what to make of this take, in particular, of a feminist pondering male privildge through the prism of her own white privlidge.  I don’t doubt the basic truth of her premise, but I’m not sure what to do with this information.

Breaking Bad News – Friday 07/22/11 Edition

Dammit, I posted yesterday’s news under the Blue Yonder section by mistake.  I’ll try not to make the same mistake going forward.  They’re just awfully close together in the “Categories” box in wordpress.  Moving on… I really identified with a few points in this article in the Sioux City Journal by the AP.  Ever since…

Breaking Bad News – Thursday 07/21/11

This one is going to be short, because I’ve got a ton of work to do, then my company is hosting a golf outing in the mouth of hell.  Someone pray for me as I try to chip around the pits of bubbling pitch and everlasting flame. The aptly named Dick Falkenbury at the Seattle…
