Dangerously Eclectic

After an unintentional hiatus L (@eclecticheretic) and Ben (@bendangerously) return to close out their first season. We hope you will come back to us after the delay as we talk about the Cold War, the IMF, and whatever else crosses our minds. We also preview Season Two and request feedback on topics to cover going forward. Thank you for your patience. 

L (@eclecticheretic) and Ben (@bendangerously) are back for the penultimate episode of their first season.  They talk through the history of games with what the various types meant to them. Including tales of gambling, dice rolling, and the time Ben nearly killed L over a videogame. Join in and share your gaming stories with us! 

L (@eclecticheritic) and Ben (@bendangerously) are back with discussing the animation that impacted their lives. Of course, with these two, the conversation takes a few strange turns along the way. 

L (@eclecticheretic) and Ben (@bendangerously) return to talk about the end. Death, how it has touched their lives, and what it all means. In the Dangerously Eclectic way only they can. 

The Christmas season is a huge movie-going time of year. L (@eclecticheretic) and Ben (@bendangerously) discuss the cinema that influenced them in their youth. Of course, it wouldn't be Dangerously Eclectic if they didn't also go deep on what movies and film mean to society. Grab some popcorn or a beer (maybe both) join us. 

L (@eclecticheretic) & Ben (@bendangerously) return to discuss the books that informed there youth. From Tolkien to King and back through Lovecraft. The merits and place of fiction and what authors speak to their small town experience highlight this Dangerously Eclectic conversation. 

L & Ben return to finish off their list of top 25 influences before the age of 25. Of course, no conversation between these two is ever that linear. Join us again as we discuss topics that range from Hee Haw to RA Salvatore to the philosophy of comedy. Join us again for another Dangerously Eclectic listen. 

L and Ben are back to discuss one of their biggest influences, terrestrial radio. Whether the power of music, the influence of talk, or the greatness of the immensely missed Art Bell,  we banter about how those invisible waves shaped us.  With guest appearances by Canadian vampires and the poetry of Amelia Martens. As Queen once sang, "I'd sit alone and watch your light My only friend through teenage nights And everything I had to know I heard it on my radio." Please tune in and join the conversation. 

L and Ben return for another conversation about the cultural influences that shaped them. This week's conversation meanders through the movie Heathers, and Jaws through arena rock and the Southern Baptist Church before barreling through Monty Python. As always, when Ben and L get together it is Dangerously Eclectic. 

Welcome to the first episode of Dangerously Eclectic. In which L and Ben two West Kentucky ex-pats get together and talk about a movie that was foundational to both of them Kevin Smith's 1994 debut Clerks. Which they kind of do...sorta....at least tangentially. Listen in to this conversation that weaves from discussions of technology and Freudian psychoanalysis to the movie and back again and see why together we are Dangerously Eclectic. You can find L on twitter @eclecticheretic and Ben @bendangerously.
