Grumpy Young Men

This week, we cover perhaps the most iconic piece of cyberpunk culture: Blade Runner. Join us as we imply a lot about how Replicants work, attempt to count all the computers, and gush over how absolutely beautiful this film this.

Also, why we hate pockets (part two).

Special Episode #27, wherein we do something completely different. We both come to the table with what we consider are really obvious questions that we’ll present to each other, with the intention of making each other look very very stupid. We succeed. 

Also, why we hate that console generations are dying. 

Today we review Artemis Fowl, the immature book series from yesteryear. Samuel really likes it, but Henry was late to the party. Listen on as we discuss how everything can be a fairy, how infallible Artemis Fowl is, and what a Fairy Bible entails. 

Also, why we hate book websites. 

Henry and Samuel have an awful lot of nostalgia for one Pokemon game and one Pokemon game only: Ruby. So join us as we discuss its level design, reiterate that every single Pokemon game is the same, conclude that fighting your dad is weird, and bike hopping? Seriously?

Also, why we hate disappointing toys.

Join Henry and Samuel in this episode about the first-person action movie, Hardcore Henry. We jump through the insane and basic plot, cover the non-stop extremely-violent violence, and talk about the difference between characters and personalities. 

Also, why we hate vaping.

Join Henry and Samuel in Special Episode #26, wherein we discuss the genre of sci-fi. We cover everything from what sci-fi really is, to some of our favorite sci-fi books, movies, and shows. 

Also, why we hate tent bags.

Join Henry and Samuel in discussing I Am a Genius of Unspeakable Evil and I Want to Be Your Class President, a classic young adult book. We talk about the hilarious writing style, the bizarre subplot, and how much it nails the feeling of being a kid.

Also, why we hate the back covers of books.

Join Henry and Samuel in talking about The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. We cover how this game benefited from being on the DS, drawing on maps, how much Spirit Track sucks, and how every video game should have a penguin puzzle.

Also, why we hate video game inventories.

This week, Henry and Samuel cover the ultra-violent western film Django Unchained. We cover the well-cast and well-written characters, complain about a lack of substance, and try to define what an “artsy” movie is.

Also, why we hate technological blight.

Special Episode #25, wherein we talk about some of our favorite settings from books, movies, TV shows, and especially video games. We come to the table with ten of our favorites, covering everything from spaceships, cities, oceans, the Star Wars prequels, hotels, and literally an entire universe.

Also, why we hate blankets.
