Podcast Guest: Noel Thingvall

Episode 91: A Jail of Cages: Part 1

, with special guest:

Nicolas CageHappy Thanksgiving, dear listeners! Do you know what we’re thankful for? (I mean, aside from wine?) We are thankful for Nicolas Cage!

That’s right, dear listeners! This week, we give you part one of a massive two-part joyfest about Nicolas Cage. And joining us for this endeavor is special guest star, Noel Thingvall: Master of Two-Part Episodes.

If you would like to drink along, we recommend Barefoot Refresh Crisp Red, which is basically wine soda. Or, if you would rather stay on the non-alcoholic side, we recommend either strawberry kiwi juice or Mendota Springs sparkling water.

Episode 90: Hey Posterity, Enjoy This

0090 Off Topic 6Dear listeners, this episode is a multiple of 15, which means this is our sixth Off-Topic Episode!

I know most of you know what this means, but if you’re a new to our podcast, here’s what’s going on:

Our episodes are edited. Like, a lot. We edit because we love you. Most of the stuff that gets clipped out just goes away into the digital aether, but sometimes, the edited material is fun enough to keep. So this episode is constructed from the bits that were clipped out of the prior 14 episodes.

The segments you are about to hear were recorded between May and November 2015. Aside from the voices of Windy and myself, you will hear:

Cetius Scotchbringer
Molly Glover
Eric Knight
Noel Thingvall
Pat Wick
Fes Works

, with special guest:

0083 Kurosawa 2This week, we’re back with Noel Thingvall, and we complete our Akira Kurosawa two-episode extravaganza! (If you did not catch Part One, you can catch it here!)

If you would like to drink along, grab a bottle of Avalon Cabernet Sauvignon. Or perhaps Apothic Red. Just don’t drink too much, lest you start snoring like Windy.

Episode 82: Nobody Wants That Much Dostoyevsky: Part 1

, with special guest:

0082 Kurosawa 1We return triumphant, dear listeners, with the first part of a massive two-part episode about Akira Kurosawa! That’s right! Strap on your oversized samurai sword and keep track of your gun, because we’re going to get into the nitty gritty of Kurosawa’s career.

For this epic undertaking, we are joined once again by movie ubernerd and fellow podcaster, Noel Thingvall!

If you would like to drink along, we recommend either Avalon Cabernet Sauvignon or Apothic Red, because they both start with A (for Akira!) and because they are tasty. Or, if you are the non-drinking sort, try Cherry Pomegranate Super Chill Ice, which is what Noel was drinking for this event.

Episode 75: Alpacalyptic

0075 Off Topic 5It is time, dear listeners, for our fifth Off Topic episode! Like our previous Off Topic episodes, this one is constructed of bits that were cut out of the previous 14 episodes: gaffs, giggles, tangents, and other random stuff.

Tonya Wershow
Kate Cornish
Kelvin Hatle
Pat Harrigan
Lewis Lovhaug
Cetius Scotchbringer
Eric Knight
Fes Works
Noel Thingvall

And, as usual for these things, our subject matter and level of sobriety will vary wildly from clip to clip. So, buckle in and enjoy!
