Ian and Matt Know Everything

Has it really been 5 weeks already? After an unintentional delay, Ian and Matt are back to their usual antics. Matt has WAY too much fun firing up his fancy new lightsaber from Savi's Workshop from Galaxy's Edge. Ian is hopelessly addicted to Destiny 2: Shadowkeep. Matt actually finished a few games and lives to tell the tale. And they both have a ton of new music to talk about. Nick Cave, Wilco, Battles, The New Pornographers, Turnover, Static Dress, Pastel Ghost... Tune in to hear more of the good stuff. The dynamic dunderheads should be back on schedule now if Matt can keep just put down the lightsaber for 5 minutes...

We say a fond farewell to the genius of Ric Ocasek (well, Matt does anyway) plus the usual gaming and musical treats. Will Ian talk about Destiny 2 again? Yeah, probably. Matt covers his experience with Gears 5 (early access warts and all), some killer new music from Kyle Shutt of the Sword (yeah he's a little behind) and the latest Pixies album. Ian covers his usual D2 conquests and fawns over the new Korn album. Also tune in to hear Ian's hot take on D-level movie great, Extra Terrestrial Visitors. Be sure to slappp like as if you were watching Davie504 and enjoy!

Slap some shrimp on the ol' barbie and join Ian and Matt (with extra special guest Troy) for some grillin' good times! Matt has a battlecruiser load of D23 announcements to cover while Ian covers his latest exploits in the Iron Banner on Destiny 2 and his quest for the Redrix Broadsword, which funnily enough is not even a sword. Nintendo Direct news? Heck yeah, we're all over that. Ian relives his Hot Topic glory days with 48 hours of Nü Metal and Matt keeps his s**t together talking about Tool's Fear Inoculum. Tune in for more games, tunes, tubes and science!

Another Matrix movie? Spider-Man gone from the MCU? GAMESCOM? Karaoke lung? Lots of stuff to unpack this week! We've got quite a bit of cool stuff and a new segment we like to call "Bits and Pieces". We've got science, games (of the video and board variety), music, TV and tons of unsolicited opinions for you all. Thanks for listening and enjoy the show!

What exactly does "off the cuff" mean? Do Ian and Matt truly know everything, or did they entirely neglect to explore the origin of this dandy phrase? This time they're toying with the format and trying some new stuff. Ian has lots of keywords to discuss about science and tariffs (yeah, exciting stuff). Matt focuses on his true feelings about the new Tool song "Fear Inoculum" that dropped earlier today. And will Trogdor get to burninate the entire countryside, or will he just rage quit torching peasants and shacks in his fiery wake? Only Ian and Matt know for sure.

Greetings from the gruesome twosome! We say farewell to an icon (who gave one of the best speeches in film history – in Matt's opinion, anyway... Ian still hasn't seen Blade Runner). Matt talks about what it's like to be an AI on a space station while Ian is still obsessed with Destiny 2. Will he ever stop? Only time will tell... We've got some cool gaming bits, a mini Comic Con 2019 recap (what we found interesting anyway), some new music from Wilco, Sleater-Kinney and DIIV. Ian takes a trip down emo lane when he had the hair-in-the-face-cut and was full of angst. And did someone mention local beer? Grab a pint and smash that play button. Don't forget to rewind before returning!

Greetings listeners! After a quick break for the July 4th holiday, the giddy goons are back at it with another episode of mayhem. We've got a month of stuff to talk about, so strap on your boots and enjoy the ride. We run through a gamut of gaming goodies (Matt finally finishes Spider-Man and a few other gems and Ian finally learns the virtues of Hollow Knight), some great tunes (Dinosaur Pile-Up, ELO, Thom Yorke, Black Pumas) and some cool TV stuff. Enjoy!

Can you handle the information overload that is the annual Electronic Entertainment Expo, also known as E3? Ian and Matt are joined by their buddy Adam to sift through the mountain of announcements from the usual suspects (minus the mighty Sony) and talk about some of our faves from afar. Maybe next time we'll get some funding to actually GO to E3 next year. Anyone wanna help?

Welcome back to the show! Matt thoroughly tests out the new Oculus Quest and gets completely hooked on Beat Saber and Job Simulator. Is it the future of VR? Is the absence of cables really a good thing? Also, Ian's Spidey sense was apparently tingling for a couple of weeks straight. We have a ton of gaming updates with E3 just around the corner. We've also got a slew of new music releases. And what exactly are Bacon Jam Smash Burgers? Only we and Chef Tom from All Things BBQ know for sure...

Welcome back to the fray! We decided to kick everyone else out of the studio for this episode and go for a soft reboot of the show. Who are we kidding... We are just doing our usual thing but with SLIGHTLY less chaos. You'll hear about how much Ian enjoyed Days Gone and how Matt FINALLY finished Shadow of the Tomb Raider. We also have lots of music news and reviews including the 13-year-often-delayed-near-vaporware status of the new Tool album. Are the two new songs they're playing live worth the wait? You know what to do to find out...
