0041 MarathonGood afternoon, dear listeners! This week’s episode is our long-awaited movie trade marathon! For this episode, Windy and Melissa spent an entire weekend watching movies, recording bits of podcast between films.That’s why this episode is super-duper sized (even though it’s not as super-duper sized as it was originally supposed to be, due to a microphone calamity at the end).

While we drank and ate many things over the course of the weekend, we suggest pairing this episode with either a Yellowtail Shiraz or a decent, affordable champagne. Also, pizza rolls.

0040 BrooksThis week, dear listeners, Sharon Stiteler (aka Birdchick) joins us again for an episode about Mel Brooks movies! We chat about his filmography, his collaborators, and, of course, My Favorite Year.

If you would like to drink along with us, we suggest Jameson Irish Whiskey, which steered us reliably into silliness by the end of this episode.

0039 GamesThis week, dear listeners, we are joined by Rob Callahan and Chris Bowlsby for an episode about game movies! Movies about video games, movies about board games, movies that feature games heavily… all are fodder for this episode! Or, rather, we intended to cover such a broad swath, but we somehow managed to never really escape the 1980s.

We blame the scattershot nature of this episode on Cupcake Vineyards Red Velvet, Trader Joe’s Grand Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, and Yellowtail Malbec, all of which contributed the steady decline in our focus and moral fortitude.

Once again, we apologize for the sound quality of the episode. We discovered many weeks later that, among other issues, our audio program wasn’t actually recording through our nice microphone; instead, it was recording through the computer’s built-in microphone. There are about three more episodes in our backlog with the same issue. (Argh.) But after that, our audio should improve remarkably! (Yay!)

0038 ApesIn this week’s episode, dear listeners, we are joined once again by Matt Kessen for a discussion of Planet of the Apes! Matt Kessen, as you may recall, is the gentleman behind Reverend Matt’s Monster Science, and he is also a complete and total Planet of the Apes nerd.

If you would like to drink along, we vastly enjoyed a bottle of Lagavulin 16 during the episode. We highly recommend doing the same.

0037 GhostThis week, dear listeners, we have an episode all about ghost movies! Haunted houses, poltergeists, and children in peril… it’s all here!

If you would like to enjoy some spirits with your spirits, we suggest you join us in drinking Fog Head Cabernet, because is fog is creepy and ghostly.

If we sound like we’re recording in a box (AGAIN), it’s because the recording software used the wrong microphone. Thankfully, the microphone on the laptop isn’t too terrible, but you will hear some artifacting generated by removal the computer fan noise. Melissa is currently in a corner with a flog, chanting mea culpas.

NOTE: We mention in the episode that we ran out of Listener Answers, which is true. However, there are a couple sets of Listener Answers that have not yet hit the podcast feed (they will show up in episodes 38 and 40). So, if you sent in answers to our Questions and haven’t heard them yet, they should still be coming up! If you haven’t answered our Questions at all yet… you should!
