  • Rough Draught: Home to Roost

    Hello and welcome to a brand new episode of Rough Draught: The Beer Appreciation Show! This one's a little late, but it's very much worth listening to! With my recent move to the City of Broad Shoulders, we should hopefully start getting new episodes of Rough Draught on a much more consistent basis. This time, Jon and I are joined by returning guests Katie and Erik to discuss Pipeworks Hyper Dog Milk Stout, Uinta Crooked Line Sea Legs Baltic Porter (and it's a mouthful!), Ommegang Three Philosophers and New Belgium Ranger IPA! We also get some interestin Tales Told Drunk of Erik's magical ride into the Mexican desert, which you're sure to enjoy.

    Have a beer you want us to try? Let us know via email ([email protected]), Twitter (@crosstawk) or in the comments section on the site. And come back later this week for a new BOP!

    Thanks for listening, folks!

  • FND 20: Diaper Rash for Adults

    Howdy, folks! You can blame the show's extended absence on the fact that Zach was back in the hospital for eight days. Before that, he was sick. After that, he was recovering. That's his story and he's sticking to it! This episode brings us the usual banter, including a lengthy discussion of Quentin Tarantino movies (inspired by Box Office Poison's last Movie of the Month), future TMNT roles for Nicolas Cage, Denny's, Marcus being super drunk at Denny's, and what an excellent actress Megan Fox is.

    Like the show? How could you not? Comment on the show in the show notes or shoot us an email at [email protected]! Follow Marcus and Zach on Twitter (@Marchaos1 & @zmiller1902), and while you're at it, rate and review us on iTunes!

  • Box Office Poison: Episode 53

    Welcome back to a new BOP! This time, Mike and Stan couldn't make it so Karl, Jon and Jonny discuss the wide world of cinema all by their lonesome. In the first segment, they talk Spring Breakers, Room 237, Jurassic Park 3D and more! Then, in the second segment we dive into Post Office Poison to talk about Funny Games (US), a rebuttle of Jonny's review of Oz, Practical Effects vs CG, the relative quality of MmBOP and who we'd have direct a BOP movie.

    Want to be featured on the next Post Office Poison? Let us know via email ([email protected]), Twitter (@crosstawk) and in the comments section on the site. And head on over to iTunes to leave us a rating/review - we could definitely use some more!

  • Discover Music Project: Episode 56

    Stan is back together for this "requested request" episode, as a listener helps Jonny brush up on his David Bowie acumen. It's a long and complex story, and much of Bowie's music and lifestyle have been controversial through the decades. You're sure to find much of interest and adoration in our selections for this legendary performer. Here are the songs:

    1. Changes (Hunky Dory)

    2. Valentine's Day (The Next Day)

    3. Starman (The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust)

    5. Diamond Dogs (Diamond Dogs)

    6. Young Americans (Young Americans)

    7. Modern Love (Let's Dance)

    8. Breaking Glass (Low)

    9. Sound + Vision (Low)

    10. Beauty and the Beast (Heroes)

    11. V-2 Schneider (Heroes)

  • Box Office Poison: Episode 52

    Hey, folks, and welcome back to BOP! This time, we discuss plenty of movies in the first segment, including Oz the Great and Powerful, The Bitter Buddha, Snow on Tha Bluff and more! Then, in the second segment, we get into Mike's pick for Movie of the Month: Jackie Brown! Did the film live up to its pedigree is or is this a bit of a letdown from the great Quentin Tarantino? You'll have to listen in to find out!

    I should note that we had some pretty bad audio issues on Stan's end for the second segment. There was a great deal of static on his recording, so unfortunately, while the rest of us can be heard with normal clarity, you may have some difficulty hearing him. It's still a great segment very much worth listening to, though, so be sure to tune in!

    Next month, Jon's got us watching Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

    Thanks for listening, folks!

  • Box Office Poison: Episode 51

    After a delay, the BOP crew is back! Mike had ot sit this one out, but the rest of us got down and dirty talking about Side Effects, seeing a live taping of Doug Loves Movies, the Dave Grohl-directed Sound City, Buckaroo Banzai and some Matrix ripoff called The Thirteenth Floor.

    Then, in the second segment, it's time for some Post Office Poison where we answer YOUR listener mail, including questions about the Academy Awards, our thoughts on Sexy Beast, directors we'd like to have on the show and whether movies are still as good now as they used to be.

    Have something to ask for Post Office Poison? Let us know via email ([email protected]), Twitter (@crosstawk) or in the comments section on the site. And please head on over to iTunes and leave us a rating or review. That's the best way to get the word out on the show.

    Thanks for listening, guys!

    Surprise! Box Office Poison is going to be coming out a bit late (likely early on Monday), so in the mean time, enjoy a brand new episode of the Beer Appreciation Show, Rough Draught! This time, Jon and I are back in Chicago, and we're enjoying a few new brews, including the Goose Island Matilda, Revolution's Coup D'Eta Saison and Left Coast's Asylum. There are also plenty of great bar and restaurant recommendations for the Chicago, Boston and South Florida areas, oddly enough.

    Have something to tell Team Rough Draught? Let us know via email ([email protected]), Twitter (@crosstawk) or in the comments section on the site. And please head on over to iTunes and leave us a rating/review - we need more of those!

  • Crosstawk Presents: The Space Q&A 2

    It's been a while, but the doc is back to answer more questions about space. From Soviet secrets to hyper-sleep, tweeting to commercialization, we cover a wide range of topics and still have plenty left for next time. Just like last time, this episode is hosted and edited by Scott Thompson and was originally presented as a bonus segment on NWR Connectivity. If you have any interest in video games, be sure to check our their weekly episodes! Big thanks to Scott for letting us rehost this content to reach even more curious listeners.

  • FND 19: Terrible, Terrible French Fries

    BECAUSE NOBODY DEMANDED IT. It's a brand-spanking new episode of the Frozen North Dinnercast with the regular crew, back for more auditory abuse. We compare our food to penises, Nelson & Marcus recount a memorable night in California, Zach's evil plans involving Trinidad Scorpions, how much we hate Taylor Swift, and (for some gawdawful reason), The Walking Dead. Apparently everybody on the goddamn planet is yet again obsessed with zombies, but Zach refuses to cave. Just as Nelson and Courtney refuse to jump on the Twitter bandwagon, Zach refuses to give AMC the time of day. Maybe they could release new seasons of Mad Men more than once every TWO YEARS (I'm not bitter).

    Like the show? How could you not? Profess said love in an email, handwritten, scanned to a PDF, and sent to [email protected]. You can also leave a comment on this very post! We read everything we get, folks, so don't be shy. If you're one of the cool kids, you can follow Marcus (@Marchaos1) and Zach (zmiller1902) on Twitter, because Twitter is the future. Finally, take a minute to rate us on iTunes sometime. It helps people find the show and makes all of us feel special. And don't just listen to this terribly-produced show--Crosstawk has plenty of other awesome podcasts. No, really! Just scroll down the page. See you next time, faithful listeners!

  • Discover Music Project: Episode 55

    Jonny and Taylor return with another "R" episode -- this one is all about Radiohead! In contrast to the Rolling Stones episode, we designed this one as a primer to introduce the band's eclectic output for beginners. Even if you're familiar with the experimental British rock band, this show may introduce you to some unexplored material. Few music groups in the past twenty years are more influential, challenging, or sonically pleasing as Radiohead. Try to count how many times we say "beautiful" through this setlist of glorious songs:

    1. Fake Plastic Trees (The Bends)

    2. Paranoid Android (OK Computer)

    3. Subterranean Homesick Alien (OK Computer)

    4. How to Disappear Completely (Kid A)

    5. Where I End and You Begin (Hail to the Thief)

    6. Everything in Its Right Place (Kid A)

    7. Pyramid Song (Amnesiac)

    8. Weird Fishes/Arpeggi (In Rainbows)

    9. House of Cards (In Rainbows)

    10. Separator (King of Limbs)

    11. High and Dry (The Bends)

    Encore:

    Grizzly Bear - "Two Weeks" (Veckatimest)
