Pause Button Podcast

Hello and welcome to the Pauscars! Again! Are you tired of this yet?! I am! This week the Pause Button boys gather round a very small table and have a very big discussion about our favorite music of the past year and decade.  

Do you often tell people about your favorite bands and artists? Do you suggest they check out the incredible songs you like and send them links or names of beats to jam out to? And how often do they actually listen to what you recommended?

EXACTLY. NEVER. So we figured we'd talk about all our favorites on a recording so you have no excuse to pretend you don't know what we're talking about, ya rude ass bitch. ENJOY! :)

Welcome to the Pauscars Part 2! This time we talk about the best video games of 2019 and the decade! We’ll rank every type of video game category out there that you can think of! We rank best shooter, best online internet game, best game to talk trash to twelve year olds on, best game to spend all your time on thus causing the impending collapse of your marriage, best video game system (System? Your immune system? What does that mean?), and more!

I’m going to be honest, this is Joe and I don’t know anything about video games! I wasn't even on this episode! But hey, they chose me to write this description. I think they talk about The Witcher, and Legend of Zelda, and Bioshock (Again? Already? This podcast has less of chance of surviving than a character you loved in Game of Thrones.)

Let us know what your favorite games were!

Do you enjoy awards shows like the Oscars and Emmys? Do you delight in awards shows that think thoroughly about who is most deserving of those honors? Do you like hard-hitting analysis and contemplation of the intricacies of acting, scriptwriting, and plot development?

Then you won’t like this!

Welcome to the Pauscars: the awards dictated by the Pause Button Podcast boys! For some reason, we’ve decided that the guys who have only ever won participation trophies should decide who and what are the best of the best. This week we’ll talk about the best shows of 2019 and of the past decade as we get ready for 2020 to slap us in the face with the cold hard fact that a new year does not mean new you. Yes, Janice. That was directed at you.

If you like to talk with blue people,

 If record breaking films make you smile, 

 If you like to waltz with weird ponytails

 that attach themselves to everything in a disgusting way,

 Has James Cameron got a movie for you! AVATAR!

 Groundbreaking, CGI, Gotta be AVATAR!

 Bad writing, Blue people, Space travel, AVATAR! 

Four sequels, Next 8 years, Vin Diesel? AVATAR!

 Kinda long, Like really long, About three hours, AVATAR! 

There’s been lots and lots and lots of other stories like AVATAR!

There’s never ever ever ever ever gonna be an end to AVATAR!

 It’s time for AVATAR!

My name is Patrick, but you can call me the Sunshine Kid. And I'm here to ask you a question: is a man not entitled to an enjoyable podcast?

"No," says the man at work, "he should focus on his job!"

"No," says the man in the recording studio, "he should listen to music!"

"No," says the man on the Mouth Breather Podcast, "he should only listen to our terrible content!"

I rejected those answers. Instead I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose THE PAUSE BUTTON PODCAST! We hope you enjoy our discussion on the dark and twisted world of the Bioshock video games! And make sure to give the Mouth Breather Podcast a listen!

Once upon a time a group of young men got together, and fueled by their artistic hopes and dreams, decided to create something for everyone around to enjoy and love. They had a good run, and their fans were very pleased. But then, the young men started to experiment with illegal drugs. The devil's lettuce brought its creator with it, and the young hooligans began to have some issues. They started to fight and insult one another, driving each other away. Making matters only worse, they started to experiment with even more drugs and the wife of one of the young men started to bring in her own artistic interpretations. The group of young artists decided that they could no longer work together, and they ended their endeavor so one of them can get shot 11 years later. And so this is how the Pause Button Podcast ends. JUST KIDDING.

It's The Beatles, you idiot, this episode is about The Beatles and their last three albums! How did 4 men who had some serious personal issues with one another create such astounding works of art? Take a listen! You'll also get to hear us discuss the insane drug-fueled death of Sam Cooke, our exciting stories from Riot Fest, and why Pat is now, and forever will be, THE SUNSHINE KID!

We all grew up with the cultural phenomenon known as Pokemon (unless you're old and completely irrelevant and your best days are behind you, CHERYL), but do you know about the controversies? The enormous profits? The twisted backstories? THE CHILD ABDUCTING MONSTERS? We'll delve into all that, along with our favorite Pokemon, on this, the THIRD episode of the Pause Button Podcast. (Yeah did you hear that Brian? The THIRD episode. LEARN TO COUNT.) We hope you enjoy!

The year is 1942. The Axis Forces have begun their siege of the Soviet city of Leningrad. A young composer by the name of Dmitri Shostakovich has just finished his Seventh Symphony, dedicated to the people who are starving, waiting to be saved. The situation is tense, the winter was cold, terribly cold, and the German's show no sign of mercy, even months later. But for this one night, August 9th, 1942, this young man in his 30's has offered the people of this ruined city a chance. A dream. HOPE. 

What does that have to do with our episode? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. We hope you enjoy our discussion on the Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase 4 announcement from San Diego Comic Con!

So you came back for more huh? Somehow enjoyed our introductory 45 minute ramble session that we called a podcast? Well keep those expectations low like a Game of Thrones fan sitting down to watch the series finale! Three months ago, one of television’s greatest shows ended in a blaze of glory that only the Hindenburg could outdo. In our very first episode, the hosts of your new favorite podcast get together to discuss the few highs, the many, many lows, and beg God to answer the simple question: “why?” Regardless of your opinion on the final season of Game of Thrones, this episode is sure to be a moderately enjoyable good time!
