In honor of 4/20 we're doing a movie length podcast blabbing about the man behind Silent Bob. Holden Mcneely (Who had that name before Chasing Amy came out!) guides us through his history, his filmography (Yes, all of it),, and oh yeah, Mike gives him some credit to the man behind the View Askewniverse for revitalizing the Marvel universe. Ultimately all three hosts lean on the side of celebrating a man who had the courage to bet on himself and his friends and make a thing and be a nerd ambassador at an important moment in our childhoods.. It's a lot to cram into one episode(yes we forgot He-man but will get to that soon!) but we try!

Matt Dinniman was an aspiring author and lowly professional drawer of cats (as if there could be any other kind) who struck gold with an ambitious Lit RPG world of shoeless heroes, loquacious cats, biting social commentary. and some good old fashioned violence. Holden gives us the history of Dinniman and the series before we give our full thoughts on the first book and talk about the difficulties and rewards of crawling back into the dungeon that is reading an actual book.

What do Sephiroth, Aunt May, the Daleks, and Leonardo the Ninja Turtle all have in common? They're now a part of the world of Magic: the Gathering which now with it's Secret Lairs and Universes Beyond sets have co opted a bunch of beloved IPs into the beloved card game to make a bunch of beloved money. Musician and Magic card expert Skulk the Hulking gives his thoughts on how this has been both good and bad for the community, how it affects things competitively and gives us his thoughts on where it goes next (Hint: Just more capitalism).

A boy named Jimmy studied internet algorithms instead of books and created a gigantic empire to become the most subscribed to YouTuber and is now a billionaire with multiple product lines and dealings with Saudi Arabia, cause hey why not?! Jake argues that he’s just a symptom of the world we live in and providing the entertainment we deserve while Mike thinks his popularity is bad for society, especially kids (Helen Lovejoy: Won’t someone think of the children?!) Holden is somewhere in the middle. You won’t get any money for listening to this whole episode, but hey you might learn something!

Special guest Joel Kim Booster (Scrubs, Fire Island, K Pop Demon Hunters!!) joins our hosts to review and rank the first arc of every Absolute DC book, the line of comics that’s been a critical and sales darling. Is beefy poor Batman better than a Wonder Woman raised in hell?!! And wait, what’s different about Flash now? And is it a good idea to read Absolute Martian Manhunter on drugs? (Spoiler Alert: No.)

Sonic refused to be contained in one episode very much like how continually refuses to be counted out. Holden runs the boys through all his failed video game comebacks (Especially 06)and talks about how and why new generation hitched their hearts to the furry blue speedster that always comes back to new frontiers. Oh and we roast Shadow, cause why not, it’s Shadow.

We try to go fast through the history of Sonic the Hedgehog but there's too many spikes of random information that pop up and get in our way. Our three egg men answer questions like how did Sonic come to be? How was he marketed differently? How does one character get two simultaneous bipolar cartoons? Why are his silly comics mired by years of lawsuits? We get knuckles deep in this one, covering everything in the first 15 years of the little blue guy before calling an audible and realizing ironic masterpieces like Sonic 06 and genuine delights like Sonic Frontiers will have to wait a week to get their proper due.

To paraphrase Tony Montana: First you come up with a mascot, then you make the platformer game, then you make the money. Yes, with the advent that little blue meth/ring imbued hedgehog had dozens of game publishers thought to themselves: Hey, that looks easy, I could also do that. And so we had a swarm of Bubsys, Gexs, and acrobatic bats flood the shelves in the hopes your grandma couldn't tell the difference between the game you wanted and Awesome Possum. Many companies tried to get their own platforming mascot star, most failed, and now Holden guides Jake and Mike through the virtual pet cemetery of crappy characters that didn't even last long enough to get a catchy rap April could hit.

It is the argument that has ended friendships, a debate that often leaves two people screaming at each other like Goku. But don't worry, we have a rather civilized discussion on the merits of both subtitled anime and dubbed anime. Jake explains how why the quality of dubbing has improved over the years and plays some pretty hilarious clips to show us just how many bumps along the road there were. We hope you enjoy this episode and don't worry, we do not care about how you listen to it!

A whole episode on Steve Urkel? Yes we did do that. What happens when a one off guest star becomes the focus of a show and family no longer matters? What other examples are there of one character unexpectedly taking over an show?And just how did an audience full of frat bros and the promise of a Sega Genesis facilitate the birth of Urkel in the first place?
