Gutter Trash

Writing this is hard.

This week on Gutter Trash, we review the graphic novel Garage Band by Gipi. We also talk about Halloween (the holiday) and Jimmy Pardo’s tiny hands and huge comedy. We discuss the works of Brian Michael Bendis and the art of wank tapes. And stuff.

Hey look, it’s a milestone. Kinda.

This week on a super sexy episode of Gutter Trash, we lift the “nwwwaaahhh” ban and review The Lookout, our second noir film starring Joseph Gordon Levitt. We wonder where the other non-Lithgow members of the 3rd Rock from the Sun cast are, contemplate issuing out cards describing individual mental problems, whether or not we should watch G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra and Jason gets violated – criminally. All this and I admit to Twittering. Follow us (me) at @guttertrash_net.

There’s gold in them thar podcasts.

This week on Gutter Trash, we review Joe Kelly’s comic I Kill Giants, featuring a surprising lack of giants and suprising abundance of awesome. We show Keith Giffen some love and wished he loved us back, we contemplate blackmailing Chris Ware, I defend The Walking Dead and Image Comics, and Jason gushes about Dungeons and Dragons. Join us as we introduce a new segment to the show: Stripper Chat, where we talk about creepy old stripper veterans and the Junior Stripper Association.

Beyoncé you can’t handle me.

On an aberrant episode of Gutter Trash, we review Tom Tykwer’s Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, starring some guy, Rain Man and Hans Gruber. We also discuss Roy Rogers, the great investment that is comic books, and canned mushrooms. I really can’t remember this episode too well, and the audio was terrible. Does anyone miss the “previously on”s?

And… Take Two.

This is absolutely the best experience we’ve ever had recording an episode. We reviewed Mike Mignola’s quirky Jenny Finn, we’re drunk off our asses, and good goddamn, we brought the fuckin’ funny.

Until I deleted the first half of the episode.

We re-recorded it, it’s not as good, but you never can top perfection. The last half of the show is from the original recording session, so if the show is disjointed or we refer to things with no context, now you know why.

We did it. We broke 90 minutes.

This week on a heavily edited Gutter Trash we review the film The Fall directed by Tarsem Singh and starring Lee Pace. Jason falls asleep, and I cry like a pussy. I also talk about the new Dethklok album, and we recount our adventures in Chicago for the Windy City Comic Con, which includes awesome Salsa albums, dirty comics, my insane relatives and gorgeous Scandinavian women. Trust me you didn’t want to hear the full version.

Happy One Year Anniversary!

This week on Gutter Trash, we celebrate one year of mediocrity by reviewing the Marvel Comics adaptation of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum, Eric Shanower and Skottie Young. We compare this adaption to the film version, I forget Judy Garland’s name, and then compare ourselves to the Oz characters we’d like to be vs. which ones we mostly likely are. We also discuss art shows, Disney, festivals and waiting ’til 3:00 am for the police.

Music by Legbone, Black Wolf Fight and America.

All Hail Satan!

Aww, fuck yeah! Horns up! This week on Gutter Trash, we let our freak flag fly and review Sam Dunn’s ROCKumentary (yeah, that’s right, I took the word documentary and replaced “doc” with “rock”. Bet you’ve never seen that before) Metal: A Headbanger’s Journey and get even nerdier than we do about comics. We talk about our favorite metal bands, our least favorite metal bands, the most ridiculous metal bands, and the metal bands that have no sense of humor (hello, Norway!). I think we actually stay on topic for most of the episode!

Episode 44: Metal – A Headbanger’s Journey

Like a sucker punch, only you’re aware, and it’s more like a tickle.

This week on Gutter Trash, it’s a case of mistaken identity as we review the anthology Low Moon by Jason, but not the Jason that co-hosts this show, and definitely not the hockey mask Jason who kills people. But either Jason could be that Jason. And the other two could be Norwegian. You never know. Anyhoo, Jason (My Jason) and I also try out a new format for the show and review some fruit. We also talk about the awesomeness of beat-up comics, Strange Tales and a $50 Fathom comic at “Half-Price Books”. We also review the newish Green Lantern animated DVD, and talk about writing fan letters to comics.

Episode 43: Low Moon

Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah.

On this angry episode of Gutter Trash, we review our first animated movie, and first recognizable comicbook adaptation, Batman: Mask of the Phantasm. This gives us an opportunity to discuss Bruce Timm’s awesomeness, but we fail to do so. We argue over whether Mark Hamill is good or not, and ponder cartoons made into theatrical movies. We also touch on CG animation vs. traditional, and Pixar vs. Everyone. In addition, we also discuss Stryper’s new album, Schweppes beverages and the long history of Mullets.

Episode 42: Batman – Mask of the Phantasm
