After catching up on the fact that we have no interest in fireworks and establishing we're grumpy old men, we blast into movie and television news! Turns out Rem doesn't find robots that funny, I guess that's his loss, because I think they're hilarious. Bryan Cranston is to play Zordon in the new Power Rangers flick and he has a lot to tell Larry King about it. That spurns a discussion about popular tv shows like Walking Dead, BREAKING Bad, Sons of Anarchy, Game of Thrones, Orange is the New Black, and more. Rem wants everyone to know that he came up with comparing Trump and Obama with OitNB, go to knowyourmeme.com and cast your votes! He had it first, dammit! (We all know he didn't, you don't have to do that. Just tell him you did and that you'll defend to the death his claim on it. No one will kill you because it's stupid and he's stupid.) Another Bryan [Fuller] begins production on [amazon text=American Gods&asin=1435132130], a television adaptation of Neil Gaiman's book. We mention other shows like Houdini and Doyle, House, Sex in the City, Queer as Folk, and Neverwhere. Pixar representative (not Brad Bird) says that after Cars 3, Toy Story 4, Incredibles 2, they will not be making any more sequels in the immediate future. Dan Brown donates €300,000 to the Bibliotheca Philosophica Hermetica in Amsterdam to digitize and preserve some 4,600 manuscripts! In the meantime, Rem forgets what the Voynich manuscript is and Brandon thinks he's talking about the Codex Seraphinianus because they're both idiots! Seriously, why do I even write for these morons?! Oh, here they are talking about the "moral quandary of 3D printing". Seriously, they're the worst. The article is pretty cool, though. Finally, Terry W. Ervin II is coming back for another live interview! He has a busy month ahead, so make sure to check out his schedule by clicking the link in his name. And the guys are going to try to go live!

We start off with impressions from BearCon, then break right into the Brexit and xenophobia because we obviously think ourselves smært! If Captain America was considered active duty through his time frozen in non-carbonite, what kind of back-pay would he receive? And when Peggy Carter finally retired, did she feed her kitties catnip-laced beet wine? James Earl Jones reprises his vocal role as Darth Vader in Rogue One and Forest Whitaker is revealed as Saw Gerrera for all you Clone Wars fans! Wait...did Brandon just get really real and really raw? Nevermind, because here comes E3 news! From Bethesda to mods to Microsoft and more! Make sure to turn all private information over to the Feds now, because Windows 10 has it all already anyway! Sony will bring some heat with FFXV, and the Last Guardian. Nintendo announces Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and rumors of a new console codenamed: NX! Everyone in Wellington Wells is doing exactly what he or she ought to: Laughing, smiling, and taking their Joy™.

We hear that Nelly Furtado is making a comeback, but only on Dueling Ogres! Just kidding, she wouldn't be caught dead on this show. Brandon tells us a little more about that Hitler movie. He even recommends it because he's not afraid to support a monster as we find out later when we talk politics (I know, right?) after finding out a certain "news site" shared a certain "makeup test"and tried to spin it as an "attack" by "liberals." (I love quotie things!) Some British ghost hunters find something more than they bargained for in a graveyard. I'll give you a hint: boobies. Live ones. We're not that gross. The war between languages heats up in China as developers of Pokemon Sun and Moon butcher Pikachu's god-given name. Pigs provide us so much more than delicious salted meats. Like brand new pancreas'! Which is promptly followed by biology discussion that we have no business talking about. Telltale Games reveals so much more goodness about their upcoming Batman game in the lead-up to E3. And finally, Rem destroys the outro with news about all the things including Bear-Con and Stephen Hines' new autobiography! [amazon template=iframe image2&asin=1519629702] How'd you get so funky?!
