Welcome to another listener-voted episode, this time bringing you the winner of our "monster animals" bracket: Snakes on a Plane! (insert that inevitable quote here).

This episode, like the movie, is shorter, but still really fun. Despite being an internet meme over-hyped sensation, Snakes lands solidly on the "enjoyable" side of the scale, and we hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording. After our thoughts on the movie in the first half, stick around for a breakdown of RPG themes in the second half!

Releasing shortly after this episode, we recorded another special bonus "alternate first half" for this one, doing our take on the movie Sharknado. We'll be putting that out as patron-exclusive content on our Patreon Page, so if you want to hear that head on over and check it out. And thanks!

I AM THE TERROR THAT FLAPS -- wait that's a different story. This time we're doing the Batman movie most voted on by our listeners: Mask of the Phantasm!

Thanks for participating in our voting rounds, everyone! When last we put out a poll, it was to see which of the proposed Batman films y'all most wanted to hear us jam on. Winning with a landslide was Mask of the Phantasm, the only animated option on the list. This was quite surprising for us, and led to a very active discussion! Tune in to hear our collected thoughts on the movie, and stick around for some tabletop gaming advice based on its contents.

Yippie ki-yay, monkey fighters! We're back to talk about Dusty's favorite so-called "Christmas movie" DIE HARD.

Every year around this time, everyone on the internet gets into arguments about what their favorite Christmas Movie is. Within the first minute of said conversations, someone is going to mention Die Hard, and then the conversation usually explodes (unless everyone just nods along knowingly, as they should be rarely do). Dusty chose the movie this time around, sticking to his guns (ho ho ho!) and calling it solidly. And well frickin' done too, as we had a blast talking about this great "Everyman vs The Terrersts!" flick.

Simultaneous to the launch of this episode we've finally decided to put up our brand new Patreon campaign, too. We've been toying with this idea for a few months now, but didn't want to launch until we felt that we had a good chunk of solid content upon which to build our name. For those of you who have been eager to get your hands on the piles of behind the scenes and other bonus content we've been stockpiling, here's your chance! Head on over to that link to see what all we're offering, and check out the things already in that exclusive feed.

What is good in life? To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and listen to this podcast with their women after they're gone. By Crom, it's our Conan episode!

We're FINALLY doing Conan the Barbarian, one of the greatest adventure movies of all time. Unfortunately, Matthew could not make it to the recording session, so in his place we brought our friends Poppy and Alex to join us and gab over how much we love this goddamn movie. This one's another long episode, as we had a lot to say on it!

East bound and down, loaded up and truckin', We're gonna do what they say can't be done. We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there. I'm east bound, just watch ol' "Bandit" run.

This time we're hauling ass back to 1977 to take a high-speed interstate drive through Smokey and the Bandit. Burt Reynolds left us this year and crossed that great Moustache Bridge in the sky, so we wanted to do a little tribute to him through this podcast. Our main focus game of the evening is the apocalypse-powered Spirit of 77 which almost perfectly captures the feel of this classic film.

This week we're jamming on one of the greatest western epics of all time: The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly!

We're back with another long one, as we had a lot to say about this one. If not the greatest western of all time, it's certainly in the top three, and I'll guarantee you that the other two films in that list would also be Sergio Leone creations. There are a lot of good behind the scenes bits we jam for this one, followed by a wonderful passionate discussion about game options.

Also, we apologize for some minor technical annoyances. NPC experimented with an altered mic placement to test out some possible future tweaks to the recording process, but the end result was not as good as expected. Hopefully they were smoothed out enough during editing that you won't notice them!
