Live from the ManCave!!!

Welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" If you thought shit was weird on this show before, you seriously ain't heard nothin' yet...but you'll definitely taste the spritz.

In this episode, the guys discuss one of their wackiest and terrifying stories yet (and they've talked about Harold Camping, so you know this is crazy). Lucas (from "Lucas Builds the Future") rebuilds his childhood friend, and things quickly go off the rails. You'll also learn that CraigMakk knows his Thunder Lizards; Serious Jest explains how worried he is about his PSE&G bill gaining sentience; and (semi-)special guest Brian shares a private story about absorbing his twin's ovaries (we told you it was weird!); plus, you'll hear about some absolutely delicious beers that you'll want to try immediately. So strap in, grab yourself a beer, and welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!! Because it's time to make friends with our future robot overlords before it's too late.

Welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" There's still more "The Batman" talk to be had, and the guys still have beers to drink. Even when they're not on the same page, the guys are always reading the same comic book.

In this episode, CraigMakk is held hostage on his own show by the last person you would expect (or would you??); Serious Jest explains his proclivity for Furries; and returning guest "Brian Brian" tries his best to up his beer game (you be the judge); plus, they discuss the never-ending struggle between Order & Chaos that makes young Batman so fascinating; you'll hear why RPat really was a perfect fit for this role; and be blown away when the guys somehow bring up Castro & Cuba when discussing this red, rainy version of Gotham. All the while, you'll hear about some incredible beers while they breakdown the newest rendition of the Dark Knight. So, strap in, grab a beer, and welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" Because there really is a thin line between vigilante and murderous S&M psychopath.

Welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" Emerge from the shadows and listen to a couple of guys nerd out over a man in a batsuit. Yeah, they should be ashamed, but are they? Come on...you know better than that.

In this episode, the guys break down the newest take on the Caped Crusader, "The Batman," in a way only the ManCave can. CraigMakk explains how he has perfected the art of projecting the projecting; Serious Jest admits that he absolutely meets the criteria of being a podcast co-host; and first-time special guest Brian Brian brings the all-new category of "Snow of the Show" like a damn gangster. Plu,s you'll hear the guys discuss whether Riddler had adequate reasons to kill the upper class; dissect the ideas of vengeance versus hope versus justice; the theology of the Batman; plus drink some pretty bad-ass alcoholic beverages and try to keep things on track (especially Brian...hard liquor is a rough mistress when podcasting). So strap in, grab yourself a beer, and welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" Because red filters on everything may not make a movie better, but it sure does make it look more red.

Welcome back to "ManCave at Midnight," brought to you by the creators of the world-famous* "Live from the ManCave!!!" podcast! Seriously, for such a small town, there sure are a lot of secrets. Sounds like just the place for people who like this podcast!

In the second chapter of episode 2, the guys continue to tear into Book 2: Psalms. Throughout their conversation, CraigMakk shows off his insufferable 'I listen to lyrics and say semi-insightful things' schtick once again; Serious Jest takes another opportunity to make everyone uncomfortable by sharing what makes a 'Serious Jest-kind of lady;" and very special (now pretty much a regular) guest Mork is once again way too smart for these guys by actually sharing educated thoughts on the directorial magic of this show (why he wastes his time with these guys, no one will ever know). And they obviously continue to imbibe outstanding alcoholic beverages. So, strap in, grab yourself a beer, and welcome back to "ManCave at Midnight!" And be glad you're not going to hell like these two.

Welcome back to "ManCave at Midnight," brought to you by the creators of the world-famous* "Live from the ManCave!!!" podcast! Want to hear the guys dive down deep into the critically acclaimed Netflix show, "Midnight Mass"? Dear God, I hope so, otherwise you came to the wrong corner of the Internet...

In the Second Chapter of episode one, the guys (including very special guest, Mork1911) wrap up their incredibly detailed discussion of Book One: Genesis. Throughout the conversation, Jest shares some very special moments from his own incredibly loving childhood; CraigMakk discusses how every key moment in his formative years was leading to the moment where he'd "be a podcaster one day!" (and reminds you multiple times...very loudly); and Mork explains why he thinks a little tough love from dear old Dad never hurt nobody (except for all of the associated emotional scarring, but that doesn't count, right?). All while discussing how "Midnight Mass" perfectly encapsulates the difficulties of being a parent (and also a child, no matter how old you get), demonstrates that not all good parents end up with good kids, and how to say goodbye to the past without destroying your future. And don't forget about those incredible alcoholic beverages they are still enjoying. Chef's kiss for Atheism, Riley! So, strap in, grab yourself a beer, and welcome back to "ManCave at Midnight!" It's not the hell you expect, but it's the hell you deserve.

In the First Chapter of episode one, the guys are ruthlessly dissecting the first half of Book One: Genesis. They discuss all the important story beats, such as the upside to having your elderly Mom walk in on you while you're trying to help get your old friend pregnant; what songs are best to enjoy while witnessing the aftermath of a deadly car accident; and debate whether or not there always needs to be one overly pushy religious lady that everyone hates living in any small town, at least according to Hollywood; all while enjoying some incredibly solid alcoholic beverages. So, strap in, grab yourself a beer, and welcome to "ManCave at Midnight!" It's not the hell you expect, but it's the hell you deserve.

Welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" And more specifically, welcome to the CHRISTMAS ERA (according to Mr. Jest)!

The Christmas season continues, at least in the ManCave! In this final part of a now world-famous holiday traditional episode, the guys find themselves prepared to pick two more "Watch That Shit" flicks to watch next to the roaring fireplace while sipping some hot cocoa. But only these two guys can take the simple act of selecting a movie to watch and turn it into a full-length podcast game.

Right when you got all snuggly to await Father Christmas, the dreaded White Elephant makes his way into the ManCave and craps out a competition to determine the next "WTS" films! And once again, game show host Jim Sardonic and special (and way too mature for this show) guest AJ get dragged down into the manure with them. It may not be the safest, fastest, most efficient, grown-up, or even enjoyable way to select a movie, but it sure is ONE way to do it. So strap in, grab yourself a beer, and welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" But most of all, keep the change, ya filthy animals!

Notes from the ManCave!!!:

Welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" The Christmas Movie Watch That Shit (also known as ManCave Movie Homework Assignment) episode continues, and it's about to get all 'stop motion'-y up in here.

Ever wanted to know every movie that Tim Burton has ever made? Well, you're about to partake in a pretty deep dive into his entire filmography. In part two of this holiday-themed episode, the guys are joined by Jim Sardonic and new guest of the show, A.J. (producer of awesome podcasts such as "Juxtaposition" & "Greenhouse Podcast") as they break down "The Nightmare Before Christmas." Listen as Serious Jest can't tell the difference between stop motion animation and puppetry; CraigMakk continues his descent into medical marijuana-fueled madness; Jim the Grinch tells you how he really feels about the Christmas season (spoiler alert: he HAAAAAATES it); and A.J. tries (and fails) to class up the joint by being the classiest guest ever. You can't blame him for trying. So, sit back, grab yourself a beer (or liquor, or edible...no judgement), and happy belated holidays from "Live from the ManCave!!!"

Welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" And Happy GODDAMN New Year! 2022 can't possibly be worse than last year, right? Right?!?!? Please be right....

Anyway, the guys got together just before Christmas to celebrate an age-old holiday tradition, one that they have respected and honored since time immemorial. That old tradition of getting together over the Internet, arguing about nonsense and Christmas movies, getting wrecked, and passing out in front of their laptops! Even better, they resurrected an old ManCave favorite:

Jim Sardonic!!

(Just kidding, he's not thaaaat old. They actually invited Jim on then forced him to enjoy the return of "WATCH THAT SHIT!!!" It was a helluva night.)

In this holiday-themed episode, the guys finally get to talk some shit about their WTS choices from approximately 100 years ago. In Part One, they discuss and rate the 1974 'classic,' "Black Christmas;" talk a lot about weed (medicinal and otherwise); discuss the value of older filmmaking techniques; and get a laugh out of Jest's ability to cellar water. Oh, and they definitely enjoy some bangers. So, sit back, grab yourself a beer (or edible), and welcome back to "Live from the ManCave!!!" Oh, and welcome to the New Year, please don't mess this one up like you did last year. (You know what you did.)
