Episode 136

This week, we are starting the year off with a heaping dose of edge as Shaun decides to embrace the BDSM-lite aesthetic and have Remington watch 5 episodes of the anime adaptation of the cult manga hit, Tokyo Ghoul - and then follow up with a discussion on why the anime is so controversial to fans of the manga.

Meanwhile, Remington is following potato chi...

Episode 135

This week, the spirit of the holidays typically involves some sort of forgiveness for minor transgressions, so Shaun decides to transgress all over Remington by forcing him to watch a further 10 episodes of the show that we have received so much flak for our views on – The first season of Attack on Titan.

Meanwhile, Remington teaches Shaun how to count.

There are some fantastic white rap artists out there, but none have come from the suburbs of Salt Lake City, and for good reason (Post Malone doesn't count, he only recently moved here).

This week, it’s Ghibbles time again! Shaun wants to make up for last week’s blunder by showing Remington a show that will be impossible to watch the wrong version of: 2010’s The Secret World of Arrietty... Let’s see how Rem manages to bungle it this time.

Having someone host a quiz about themselves seems a little odd to me, maybe we should have had Samantha do it.

Episode 131

This week, the crushing despair of quarantine has got to Remington, and Shaun decides to share with him the coping mechanism that has helped him get this far: The entire first season of the critically panned short-form first-person POV anime One Room.

Meanwhile, Remington should really consider taking his sister to therapy.

Episode 131 - Pre-Show Banter

There was a series of obstacle courses that Shaun and I went through that involved a series of ball pits where the balls kept increasing in size up until they were yoga balls. Naturally we walked out of there bruised up from slamming each other with massive balls. This doesn't really relate much to the pre-banter, it's just here to give you that mental image.

Episode 130

This week, there’s magic in the air! Or is it incest... Either way, Shaun feels that it’s time to show Remington 5 episodes of The Irregular at Magic High School to celebrate it’s second season!

Meanwhile, Remington did something very bad with his mic and Dylan is going to kill him.

Episode 129

This week, it’s time to take on Ayn Rand meets Junji Ito as Shaun shows Remington a show that attempts to be subtle but is more akin to a shotgun: 2014’s Parasyte -the maxim-.

Meanwhile, Remington hates math.

Does this show have the worldbuilding skill of Tolkien or Shyamalan?  Why does Dylan hate this shows OP? Why did Samantha just call Shaun a turd in the wind? Find out ...

Hey y'all, just wanted to let you know that thanks to Shaun and Rem giving Dylan a massive pre-show banter to edit this week, the full episode will be released a little late.

Episode 126 - Pre-Show Banter - TRIMMED

This is the trimmed version of this week's pre-banter. Mostly the same, just cut more like an audiobook until everything devolves and has an added disclaimer. If you are only going to listen to one version, this may be a good option for you.

Rem has goofed and given us over 50 minutes of pre-banter. This is the full version without any major edits aside from deleting excess silence. You have been warned.
