It's a Guy Thing Podcast - San Antonio Texas

Episode 22: Christmas 2014

So this is Christmas, our first on the IAGT Podcast, and we wanted to devote an entire episode on some of our favorite Christmas movies, traditions, and some of the stuff we love about this holiday. So sit back, listen to our silky smooth voices wash over you as you down some Egg Nog and check out our guy thing Christmas.

Michael and I talk about how the holidays are different now that we’ve got kiddos. What’s Mirth? Is Christmas your favorite holiday? These are some questions we posit this episode.

What’s your favorite holiday? We each have different reasons why Christmas is or isn’t, maybe you’ve got the same issues or loving memories of these holidays.

We talk about some of our favorite (and least favorite) Christmas/Holiday songs, Trans-Siberian Orchestra (again, listen to last episode), and some traditional songs we all grew up with.

If you’re local to San Antonio, we have a little shout out for Windcrest and their amazing Christmas light displays throughout the years.

Best Christmas Movies:
Michael's - Mickey’s Christmas Carol, Home Alone, Christmas Story, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, & Love Actually.
Rick's - National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, Christmas Story, Scrooged, The Small One, Bad Santa, Children of Men, and Mixed Nuts.
Mario's - (NOT Christmas Story) The Santa Claus: The Mrs. Claus, Home Alone, Elf, Scrooged, Gremlins, and The Holiday. Oh yeah, and Santa Claus the Movie.

Thanks for tuning in for our special Christmas edition of the show. Now, we want to know what puts you in the Christmas mood? What traditions do you hold dear during this time of the year?

Episode 21: Grab Bag Vol. 2

In our second “grab bag” episode, we digress all over the place. We also introduce a new guest to you, a buddy from way back for Rick and Michael and new friend to Mario, Jack. Just Jack.

We immediately dive right in to the new Terminator Part 50-something trailer and what we think and how we feel about the debacle. While we’re at it, we tear up the old ones (a la our Time Travel Episode) because we love them so much.

How into the events of the world are you? Does the media care? Do we care? DOES ANYBODY CARE? Let us know, if you care to… Also, we discuss activism and the point or lack of a point of it. Are you in the Matrix? Is the media a conspiracy created by Vampire Illuminati?

Special Thanks to Jack for joining us on the show. We hope we’ve provoked some thought or at least made you laugh. Do us a favor and share the love by telling your friends about us.

Episode 20: Star Wars IAGT Episode 1

It was only a matter of time until we tackled this subject full on. Luckily, you’ll be getting constantly updated episodes peppered throughout the future of this podcast. This is the first episode all about Star Wars!

What do you remember about the first time you were enlightened by the multiverse of Star Wars? We talk about our earliest memories, our experiences with the merchandise, the themes, and what we love or hate about the six films. We also talk about the future of the franchise and our views on the franchise moving forward. Remember, this is the first of a many part series, just spread out every 5-20 episodes.

Episode 16: Fantasy Football

Oh my god, you’re still here!

This week we talked a little about fantasy football and all the fun and frustration that comes with. We realize that many weeks have passed but some of this you can listen to and laugh at who we have or you can cheer us on because our players are finally killing it. Either way, this is pure guy stuff.

Episode 15: Nina Diaz, Tobin Center, and Paul is Dead

Hey, there you are. We we’re looking all over for you. We were here, it was you that was absent for a few weeks. Anyway, this week we talk about our visit to the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts to watch David Garza, Lonely Horse, and the Nina Diaz Solo Project.

While we were there, we had a What If discussion about music, the forced absence of some pop stars, and who we would choose to be. We love theoretical questions, so this might happen more often in the shows. Anyway, we’re not promising a full return because life is full of surprises, but I can promise at least one per month. Ok, promise is too much of a commitment, but if you’ve subscribed, you’ll see us as soon as we pop back up. Hopefully more often than not.

In the second of our Who Are We series, we take a deep look into the man we know as Rick, Ricker, Cro, and Team Felix. The guys dive into who the hell this Rick guy is and discuss his love for animals, film, Michael Bean, his football achievements, and private school culture. Rick and Mike also share stories of their high school and formative years and how they became friends and the bonds they share. They also talk about their connection with Mario and how he fits into their group of old friends. Finally, Rick talks about his future project, turning one of his favorite books into a film. Oh yeah, and he has provided our music since episode six!
