Hey, folks, and welcome to a brand new episode of DMP. This week, Jonny's discussing Stevie Wonder with none other than the silky-smooth Jon Lindemann and his lovely wife Amy. You might know Lindy as one of the mighty men at Radio Free Nintendo, so this is a rare opportunity for the man to drop knowledge on something that isn't game-related. It's also Amy's podcast debut. So there's a lot of special floating around here.

Unfortunately, Jonny's in Portland on business at the moment, but when he has a spare chance, he'll update the description with the usual set list.

If you have any questions, comments, concerns or recommendations, send them to us via email ([email protected]), Twitter (@crosstawk) or in the comment section on the site.

Thanks for listening, guys!

Welcome one and all, to the wonderful world of internet podcasting. This episode of Hardcore Nerdography is jam-packed with stupidity! You'll get love advice, a wonderful essay on America, dog voices, anti/pro-semitism, a reading of Crosstawk iTunes reviews, and all manner of hilarity. If you enjoy the show, why not send us an email at [email protected]? Or you could follow us on Twitter at @supinternets (Amanda), @StrikerObi (Mike), and @TheOtherNorbit (Dante). 

Hey there, folks. So despite some really awful delays (the fault is entirely mine, believe me), the new episode of Box Office Poison is here and ready to be devoured by a trusting an uncynical public (i.e. you). This month there was plenty to discuss from X-Men: First Class, Tree of Life and Pirates 4 all the over to Hercules Against Karate.

In our second segment, we talk about my pick for Movie of the Month: Man Bites Dog. Did the crew love this sadistic look at a serial killer, or did it leave them cold (and dead) in the water? You'll have to listen to find out.

If you have any comments of your own, let us know via email ([email protected]), Twitter (@crosstawk) or in the comments section.

Thanks for listening, everyone! Next month, Mike's having us all watch The Cooler.

See you then!

In this episode of Hardcore Nerdography, we go back to our old format and talk about comics, movies, and Amanda's mother. I'd like to give you more detail but we recorded this a week and a half ago and I just can't remember it all. Hopefully, this episode is a bit more memorable to you. Send us some emails at [email protected]. And follow us on Twitter - @StrikerObi (Mike), @supinternets (Amanda), and @theothernorbit (Dante).

After an all-too-long hiatus, Crosstawk Comics is back with some great comics commentary. This time, we've got Jonny Metts joining us to talk about Spider-Man 2099. Jonny's been lobbying for us to talk about a certain comic for a while now, and so we finally gave in to talk about... Spider-Man 2099! Taking place in the future of the Marvel Universe with a new Spider-Man named Miguel O'Hara, this version was a huge departure from the usual lore, and was definitely an interesting choice to discuss.

Did we like it? Hate it? You'll have to listen in to find out, but if you have any comments, questions or concerns of your own, you can let us know via email ([email protected]), Twitter (@crosstawk) or on the website.

Thanks for listening, and come back later for a new episode of Discover Music Project!

Hey, folks! Hope you're ready for a fresh dose of movie action, because Box Office Poison's got a brand new episode. I'm back this month after taking April off, and there's tons to talk about, from Thor to Cave of Forgotten Dreams to Stand By Me to American: The Bill Hicks Story.

In the second half, it was Stan's Movie of the Month, so we all watched John Carpenter's They Live. With stars like Rowdy Roddy Piper and Keith David, did we all think it kicked ass, or were we all out of bubblegum? You'll have to listen to find out.

Next month is my pick: Man Bites Dog.
