This episode, John and Sebastian end it all.

And by "it all" we mean "this podcast."

Are you ready to MEAT your maker? Are you ready to saddle up with HORSEY SAUCE? Are you ready to take a FRENCH DIP in the waters of fast food's roast beef king? If you answered yes, then join us on a journey to the meat mecca known as... Arby's!

Hop onto our Dreamcatcher blimp and take a trip with us to EPCOT in the Walt Disney World Resort as we take a Journey into Imagination with our best little dragon pal, Figment. If you're ready to listen to two grown men gush about a cartoon dragon, then listen on, dear listener!

Join us for a somber affair in which we pay our last respects to the angry green giant known as the Incredible Hulk and offer the last word on the Hulk's final made-for-TV movie. We commit this miniseries to the ground. Ashes to ashes, Hulk to Hulk.

Order! Order!! Court is now in session. The defendant? The mean, green dude-tossing machine known as the Incredible Hulk! His lawyer? The Man Without Fear, Daredevil! The charges? Starring in an awesome slice of 80s tv cheese. Join us as we litigate the Hulk's second tv movie adventure on Here's Why It's Great!

We're back! And so are Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno as Dr. David Banner/The Incredible Hulk! This time, they've got company - The Mighty Thor is here to kick ass, drink beer, and rock leather pants like a champ. Join Sebastian and John on a trip down memory lane as they relive the height of 80s television, ogle beefy dudes, and pine for their lost VHS collections on the glorious return of Here's Why It's Great!

Alright, class, take out your pencils and pay attention, because your hosts are about to take you to school. Today's subject? The film world's King of Controversy - the rebel, the maverick, the lunatic, the visionary... Oliver Stone. Before he became a Hollywood pariah, this director won Academy Awards, made boffo bucks at the box office, and challenged his audience with films that made them re-examine the foundations of the United States of America. But as his views and ideas became more extreme, so did the vitriol spewed at his films. Your professors today, John Bring with special guest Daryn Beasley (The Whole Ref'n Show), will examine the artistic, cultural, and historical contexts of the films of Oliver Stone and the impact he has made on film (and the world at large). So open your mind and prepare for a fever dream of Vietnam flashbacks, the JFK assassination, Native American Shamans, predators, patriotism, virtue, vice, and the fall of Camelot. Take notes, there WILL be a quiz on Here's Why It's Great!

Bust out your board, pick a token, and get ready to roll the dice as your brave hosts delve into the history, the legacy, and the global impact of the world's most famous (and divisive) board game. John, Lindsay, and Sandy relive their fondest Monopoly memories while they tackle topics such as house rules, real-life hotels, film adaptations, and the many, many Monopoly knockoffs. They also talk about why this game drives people to the edges of sanity and sometimes sends them careening into darkness. Take this dark and perilous journey with us, listener, but beware... you will soon stare into the beady eyes of Mr. Monopoly himself. Careful, his eyes are a gateway to the abyss - where time and space have no meaning. For that is the way of Monopoly. Abandon hope all ye who enter here. Say a prayer to your god, then pass Go and collect $200 on Here's Why It's Great!

Bonjour! Let's take a trip back to the halcyon days of late 2019, when you didn't have to wear a mask to go outside and international travel didn't feel like rolling the dice on your health and well-being! For the Christmas holiday, your hosts, John and Lindsay, flew across the Atlantic for the very first time to go to a theme park similar to the one less than an hour's drive away from where they live. Why? They had to see if the nasty rumors were true - was Disneyland Paris the true redheaded stepchild of the Disney Park family? (All apologies to our redheaded listeners who happen to be stepchildren.) In this episode, your hosts will analyze, scrutinize, and (hopefully) popularize the little theme park that could. Keep your hands and feet inside the vehicle at all times, because it could be a bumpy ride on Here's Why It's Great!

In the magical time known as the spring of 1997, a brand-new band burst onto the scene in a fish-eyed lens fever dream, and one question would ring in the minds of the masses since then: what the hell, exactly, IS an MMMBop? Well, folks, your brave hosts have all the answers you've been looking for, and so much more. The brothers Hanson-- that's Taylor, Issac, and Zac-- are more than just a boy-band-turned-man-band that have had audiences swooning since before they were pre-teens. They're entrepreneurs, they're brewmasters, they're philanthropists, they're husbands, and they're fathers, all while they've been churning out perfectly-crafted pop songs since their heyday. They aren't the 90s nostalgia act you might imagine, and to prove it, your hosts John, Lindsay, and Sandy dive deep into their history, their discography, their legacy, and 12 of their grooviest songs. After listening to this episode, you'll be asking yourself: Where's the Love... for Hanson? So dust off those rollerblades and get ready to MMMBop your head to some catchy tunes on Here's Why It's Great!
