Needless Things

The Skywalker saga may be over, but there are enough books to keep Star Wars fans satisfied for years to come. Chad, Ryan, and Beth have started a series to keep you up to date on all the action. Join our book club as we run down the best that canon, legends, and comics have to offer.

For our first episode we're starting with one of the most iconic characters of the star wars legends recently brought back to canon: Grand Admiral Thrawn. Listen in as we discuss the first two books in the Thrawn trilogy. Don't worry, we'll be talking about the third book and the original series next time.

Live from the Cabana of Unrelenting Despair – Dave, Arian, and Mike Gordon discuss the current American pro wrestling scene!

AEW vs ROH vs NWA vs NXT vs WWE isn’t really a realistic competitive scenario, but in the hearts and minds of wrestling fans those are the terms of fandom. We can enjoy some or all of their products, but there must be favorites! Each organization is offering very different products. This means that we’re living in one of the very best eras to be a wrestling fan because there’s something for everyone.

Listen in as the Needless Things Irregulars cover the highs and lows of wrestling in 2020 on the newest episode of the Needless Things Podcast!

Part of an ongoing series – the Needless Things Irregulars gather in the Phantom Zone to provide their own unique commentary on classic genre films!

It’s January, which means it’s time for a fresh new year and a look at another Patrick Swayze film!

The looming threat of Communism was ever-present in 1984. Back then Americans didn’t go a day without thinking about the menace of the Soviet Union and the possibility of World War III breaking out literally at any minute. It was a time of great paranoia and greater patriotism. “America the Free” seemed like a powerful yet fragile concept that could be tested to the breaking point by our enemies across the ocean without warning.

Master filmmaker John Milius zeroed in on this national temperament with the classic action/drama Red Dawn. The Movie stars Patrick Swayze, C. Thomas Howell, Lea Thompson, Jennifer Grey, Powers Boothe, Harry Dean Stanton, and Charlie Sheen in his first role.

Listen in as Dave, Arian, a returning Rad Ranger, and special guest Mike Gordon cheer on the Wolverines on the newest episode of the Needless Things Podcast!

Fans have been hearing about the possibility of live action Star Wars television shows for decades. In November of 2019, as part of the launch of Disney’s new streaming service, we finally got one. While not on a network or even cable, The Mandalorian, is a weekly episodic series that eschews the saga of the Skywalkers and examines life in a galaxy far, far away from a different perspective.

Listen in as Dave and the Execute Chapter 66 crew (minus Beth, who was recovering from a fight with a mudhorn) discuss the premiere season of The Mandalorian on the newest episode of the Needless Things Podcast!

I Ya Toyah is a Chicago-based DIY one woman army of Polish descent that blends chaos and balance with the familiar vibe of industrial electronica sound. Her music melds smooth, cutting edge vocals, surreal guitars, hypnotizing beats, and multiple electronic synth elements into dark arrangements that, combined with storytelling lyrics, respond to the paranoia of everyday reality.

Listen in as Dave and I Ya Toyah talk about life, music, and hard work on the newest episode of the Needless Things Podcast!
